On the Cain Train

I was listening to a clip on the radio this morning, and there was point in last night's debate where I'd swear the Cain called Nancy Pelosi a "C-Word."

It happened during when he said this:

CAIN: The legislation has already been written. H.R. 3000. In the previous Congress it was H.R. 3400. And what that does -- it has already been written. We didn't hear about it in the previous Congress because "Princess Nancy" sent to it committee and it stayed there. It never came out.

However, that transcript is not entirely accurate. Cain fumbled for his words for a secong and at that time it sounded like he called Pelosi a "c---"

I can't do youtube right now, so I don't know if anyone else caught it.

Even if it's true there are probably thousands of women he hasn't called a ****.

Does the Daily Show take suggestions?

The transcript is accurate other than "sent to it" should be "sent it to." He said "previous Con -- previous Congress." It didn't sound to me like he said what you thought he said. Here's a video of the segment in question:

Yeah, the words "Congress" and "Congressman" seem to throw politicians. I remember back in 1976 when Ronald Reagan said, "I have known Gerald Ford for many years. He has been a Communist for many years..."

That was a funny gaffe, but again, just a slip of the tongue, not an actual failure to know what he meant to say, like Perry's most recent.
 
This is when I get max enjoyment -- when these nutbags say they're running for POTUS because they've been tapped on the shoulder by God f'in Almighty himself:

Herman said:
That’s when I prayed and prayed and prayed. I’m a man of faith — I had to do a lot of praying for this one, more praying than I’ve ever done before in my life. And when I finally realized that it was God saying that this is what I needed to do, I was like Moses. ‘You’ve got the wrong man, Lord. Are you sure?

Yup, that's two, count 'em two, Moses'es in our midst.
 
On Libya

For crying out loud, Herman Cain makes Sarah Palin seem semi-cogent! This mind boggling gibberish is transcribed from tv. I'll try to track down a youtube, and in the meantime read it and weep:

Reporter: Do you agree with president Obama on Libya or not?

Cain: Hmm. [pause]. Libya. [pause, looks at notes] President Obama supported the uprising, correct? President Obama called for the removal of Gaddafi. I just want to make sure we're talking about the same thing before I say yes I agree or no I didn't agree. Um. [pause]

Cain: I do not agree with the way he handled it for the following reasons. [pause]

Cain: Nope, that's a different one. Um. [pause, fidgets in chair]. I gotta go back and see, um. [pause]

Cain: Got all this stuff twirling around in my head. Um. [pause]

Cain: Specifically, what are you asking me did I agree or not disagree with Obama?

Reporter: I was asking if you agree [muffled] was asking about the Bush foreign policy, so I was taking a specific example from the Obama administration that was controversial within his own administration on what he should have done or not done. And I was wondering if you agreed with what he did or if you would have responded differently. It's an issue that's come up since you've been running for office and I was wondering how you...

Cain: Here's what I would have, I would have done a better job of determining who the opposition is. And I'm sure that our intelligence people had some of that information. Based upon who made up that opposition, ok, based on who made up that opposition, might have caused me to make some different decision about how we would participate. And secondly, no I did not agree with Gaddafi killing his citizens, absolutely not. So something would have to have been, I would have supported many of the things that they did in order to help stop that. It's not a simple yes no because there are different pieces and I would have gone about assessing the situation differently which might have caused us to end up in the same place but what I think more could have been done was what's the nature of the opposition.

Gingrich is the new not-Romney; end of ride approaches. Before I forget:

I’m ready for the ‘gotcha’ questions and they’re already starting to come. And when they ask me who is the president of Ubeki-beki-beki-beki-stan-stan I’m going to say, you know, I don’t know. Do you know?
