Before Libya's Muammar Gaddafi went into hiding after an armed rebellion by the Libyan people (because he raped and pillaged the country), was the Libyan leader always going on national TV and telling his people, "That's what the people want."
The Republicans do, all the time. "That's what the American people want." Why are they always telling us what we want, when in fact, we don't want their same old crap at all! But yet, they still keep repeating that same mantra over and over again - as though maybe, if they say it often enough, they'll get a consensus of the people, and we'll start to believe them.
And that's what really pisses me off. The Republicans must really think that the American people are very, very, stupid. Are we? Or is it just Republican voters who are? But regardless, Republican presidential hopeful Herman Cain must think I'm very stupid indeed!
And what's scary is, this week Herman Cain leads the pack with 27% of the Republican voters in the polls! That's an awful lot of dumb and stupid Americans, because there can't be that many Republican millionaires or corporate CEOs.
I wish Bill O'Reilly would get Body Language expert Tonya Reiman on his show and analyze Herman Cain, who rarely smiles and always licks his lips when he speaks in his interviews. He always seems to be so angry at the American people all the time. Why? Is it because we have the nerve to doubt his preposterous schemes?
Herman Cain was on Meet the Press this morning. He said the Liberals aren't mismanaging the economy, they're deliberately trying to destroy it (I'd say Bush and the Republicans already destroyed it...remember 2008?)
Herman Cain says with his 999 Tax Plan, taxes will go up for some "some people" [the poor], but that the cost of their goods and services will also go down, because there will be no more invisible taxes. (He used the "loaf of bread" economic theory.)
Herman Cain said the Occupy Wall Street people were "stupid" and protesting the wrong people, that they should be protesting at the White House for failed economic policies (I guess Herman Cain wasn't paying attention to what the banks and other corporations have been doing while he was making pizzas.)
And can Herman Cain read English? He says the people protesting Wall Street don't know what they want, but if Herman can read, all the protest signs in over 950 protests in 80 cities around the world are clearly stating the same thing...and that is what they DON'T want. It doesn't take a damn rocket scientist to figure that out. Maybe Americans aren't so stupid after all, maybe Herman Cain is.
If Herman Cain had read this Fox News article or had watched this un-aired Fox News interview, Herman Cain might have a much better understanding of what the "occupy" protesters (the 99%) were all about and what they want...and it's certainly not Herman Cain, or his screwy 999 Tax Plan (no matter how many times he tells us).
But yet, he tells the American people that "yes", that is exactly what we want. If Herman Cain really believes this, then he is just as out of touch with the 99% as the other 1% is.
The Herman Cain 999 Tax Plan is nothing more than a shell game: It taxes the poor more, and taxes the rich less, just like all the other Republican millionaires and their corporate hacks want to do. They are all narcissistic assholes.

criticize you, you always fly off the handle and you go on and on and on about it and you never let me get a word in edge-wise and as well as that you are always being charming to people when they are present and later on you always want to
criticize them behind their backs! (pause for a deep breath)
# What's a narcissist's idea of hard work?
Arranging for lots of other people to do all the chores.
# Why does a narcissist find it tiring to have lots of visitors?
Who said that acting wasn't tiring? (the narcissist has to present a false image to those whom he/she feels the need to impress. However, if the visitors stay long enough the narcissist might eventually let his/her guard down (and the visitors might see a truer picture).

Cured! (the inability to empathize properly with others is a key feature of pathological narcissism)

In his work as the CEO of Godfather's Pizza Herman Cain worked diligently in Washington and in the media to see that low-wage restaurant workers could legally be paid as little as possible.
ReplyDeleteIn fact, Cain's time in the restaurant business was marked by a long and largely successful battle against minimum-wage increases, and even today, some 15 years later, many of the nation's waiters and waitresses have Cain and the restaurant lobby to thank for a federal minimum wage of $2.13 for tipped workers.

Cain seems more interested in selling his books and lowering his taxes, than about creating jobs. Then there was that e-mail to the staff about traveling in a car with Mr. Cain: “Do not speak to him unless you are spoken to,” the memo said.
