Sarah Palin Coaches Herman Cain On How To Play The Victim
Sarah Palin recently turned up on Fox News and attempted to coach Herman Cain on how to play victim and in typical Palin fashion she attacked Cain’s mistress.
Video from Fox News:
HANNITY: All right. I hope you were just listening to Herman Cain. There’s a bigger issue in play here because long before the issue of sexual harassment and this most recent charge came up, he was being called all sorts of names, and the media seems to just be willing to do this and go along with this.
You have experienced this as a conservative woman. Why is — why do we live now at a time of political correctness, yet if you’re a conservative, you’re a woman, you’re an African-American conservative, you can say anything you want, nobody seems to care?
PALIN: Yes, isn’t that something? Well, we need to not be afraid of being accused of being racist just because we call out, for instance, Obama and his socialist policies, and his associations and his past record that prove that he would seek to fundamentally transform America.
We cannot be afraid of what the name calling will do to us. But yes, you’re spot on when you talk about the hypocrisy and the double standards in the media.
You know in regard to Herman Cain and what he is going through, I’ll tell you, Sean, in many voters’ book, including mine, character counts. And if Herman Cain did not engage in this recent 13-year affair, no screwing around on his wife and giving money to some broad on the side unbeknownst to his wife, well, then, if he did not do this, then the false accuser is really despicable and we shouldn’t have to put up with that kind of false accusation that results in somebody’s character being so besmirched and really ruined.
HANNITY: Yes.
PALIN: If he did do it, though, Sean, if he did it, if he engaged in this recent affair and is misleading the public, then, you know, like they say, boys will be boys, but they shouldn’t run the country. And it’s going to be refreshing when facts come out on this so that people can make up their mind, make their own judgment on this, and then we can move on and start talking about the issues that really matter.
Sarah Palin is the queen of playing the victim, and her advice to Herman Cain in finest garbled Palinese is to blame the victim and the media. Sarah Palin is the guiding light for the Republican mantra that it is always someone else’s fault. Palin also showed the true face of conservative feminism when she called Cain’s mistress a broad.
Notice how Palin tried to have it both ways though. Sean Hannity tried to get her to blame the media for all of Cain’s problems, but she did her best to play it both ways and cover her backside with her little character counts aside. It is interesting that character may count but when a conservative candidate is accused of sexual harassment and having a 13 year affair, it falls into the category of boys will be boys.
Anthony Weiner had some phone sex and sent out some racy pics, and Palin called him impotent and said that he should have resigned sooner. Herman Cain has done things that were much worse than anything Weiner did, but yet Palin refused to tell Herb to get out of the race.
Cain has been taking pages from Palin’s playbook from the very beginning. When the news of the sexual harassment allegations broke, Cain blamed the media. As the allegations mounted, he blamed the victims. Now that the mistress has come forward, he is blaming some vast conspiracy to pay off these women to smear his campaign.
Sarah Palin tried to coach Cain up on playing the victim in the most non-committal way possible. Palin’s refusal to jump on Hannity’s Cain Train and blame the media was the biggest sign yet that she thinks he is guilty.
Sarah Palin tried, but not even the queen of self-martyrdom can save Herman Cain.

What is worse than Palin spouting this rot to someone like Hannity? Nothing.
Its no problem going into Obama’s past, but to go into Cains is a problem? I think not Sarah. BTW, could you tell us what these socialist policy’s are? None of the rest of your mindless bots can, I doubt you can.
Everything said about Palin she has brought on herself. But like FoxNews, Hannity and Cain, she will always refuse to take responsibility

but i still resent it. we were having such a nice, nearly palin free time of it.
and now this.
of all things, too, for that woman to make one of her let’s get back to me and those skeletons in my closet statements, as though herman cain cain’t hold a candle to her on that front.
perhaps she’s right.

I tried to watch the video but even after the last 4 years I still can’t stand listening to that woman speak. Every single time she talks she sounds like a freshman high school student in speech class, incoherent, inconsistent and unintelligible.

I agree with that! – I ALWAYS hit the blab-off when simple sarah speaks. Though, in silence, I’ve been watching some of her recentfox appearances, trying to figure out what is making her look so different lately. She somehow is looking so very ill, or perhaps drugged up…. or maybe age is just not being so graceful – something is different in her recent appearances

At this point, Cain’s chances at the nomination are just as dead in the water as Palin’s chances. Like her, he is incapable of owning up to responsibility for his own actions and he actually has fools comparing him to black men and boys who were actually lynched in the South for supposedly inappropriate behavior toward white women. This is only ONE of his many problems, most of which he shares with the other cast members of the GOP clown show.

Tis the pot calling the kettle black, I tell you. $arah still has not taken responsibility for her careless and mindless rhetoric, so she won’t condemn a fellow conservative for his follies.
We all know our elected officials are human – it is the conservatives who want to hold liberal and moderate lawmakers to a higher standard. It isn’t the affair and harassment that makes Cain a poor candidate for any office, it is his refusal to take responsibility for his actions that makes him a poor excuse for a human being.
I liked how $arah was able to re-write history in regards to her own history of infidelity, and evidence that her husband has also had extra marital affairs. She was even able to base the Tri-G truther movement to her masseuse who didn’t even speak until years after the allegations of a faked pregnancy arose. Since she doesn’t know how to use the intertubes, she assumes others can’t as well.
First question if she ever runs for office again will be where is Tri-G’s birth certificate?

Too bad that Sarah has no clue what having a good character even means. She lies , she accuses, she baits, she blames-and she bolts. She has so much courage that she won’t venture out of her Fox den to actually speak to a journalist instead of college dropouts. None of them does honest work. And her advising Cain is priceless. I do hope she’s taking notes. This is what awaits her when he ego overruns her brain again.

I thought I wanted to comment on this, but she twisted her tongue into so many knots, I don’t know how to make a coherent response. People take this woman seriously? She’s so busy yapping, she doesn’t even listen to the commentator–not that he has much to add.

It’s the Conservative way to blame the victim, then to feign victimization.
This is rather telling:

On a lark, I randomly Googled the name of one of those women at the “Women…Cain” site, and found a rather interesting confession.
“Stefani Smirnes” of Dunwoody, GA
She said, “This was a way back in 1980. I was dating a guy who I thought cared about me but who was simply taking advantage of my willingness to be intimate with him (enough said) When I feared that I might be pregnant, he showed his true self. He implied that since I had been active with him I was probably active with others and he denied me. I was wounded terribly. In my hysteria I phoned him and as we were both pretty young, he lived at home. His mother answered the phone. She had sympathy for me but she told me that her son was not good for me and that I should leave him alone and she asked me if I knew the Lord. Now this is surprising to me, but even more was that I had recently begun studying ‘The Scriptures’ with Jehovah Witnesses. I had been involved with them for a few months (unbeknownst to me at the time, but my mail carrier was a FORMER JW and he saw these folks coming to the apartment complex and began to pray for whoever it was that they were meeting with) When she asked me ‘Do you know the …”

It’s so…TOUCHING…when women who’ve been around the block a few times get “born again” and express their faith in a man like Herman Cain. They remind me of baby ducks, willing to follow the first thing that they see after hatching.

I don’t, I can’t look at her let alone listen to what the cave woman has to say. The right makes a lot of money by crying about a liberal media but it’s not possible to exploit yourself through the media more than they do with fixed news. Hannity is a boring gas bag who has the same exact routine he had ten years ago. That’s the thing about knuckle draggers they’re incapable of evolving. Puke.

I mean no disrespect, but Cain’s affair accuser is not a victim but a willing participant who is likely to make beaucoup bucks selling her story. The sexual harassment ladies were victimized, but I find it a stretch to call White a victim. just sayin’

If herb caines character is besmirched by having an affair, that what about newt’s? He’s had 2 affairs before his last 2 marriages.
How will they defend that?
I don’t really care that he had an affair. Ronald Reagan did and he became a republican saint!
It’s the sexual harassment that bothers me more, and the republicans dismiss that. To me, that is an abuse of power that is more telling then an affair.
“Herb” is an arrogant liar and sarah palin proves it takes one to know one!

Sarah Palin continues to disparage women in the most vile and offensive way. Just when we think she can’t do any more damage to the image of the American woman, she calls a woman a “broad” and excuses the conduct of an unfaithful husband by saying “boys will be boys.”
The Urban dictionary reveals just how offensive the term “broad” is. It explains that:
“Broad refers to the distance between the vagina lips of the human female. When the distance becomes wider than normal due to wear and tear, high mileage and rough use a woman becomes a broad. A broad is not necessarily a slut because all the wear and tear may have come from one man but a slut is always a broad.”
When Sarah Palin uses this term to describe Ginger White, the woman who had a 13-year affair with Herman Cain, she is attributing blame to the woman and suggesting she is a “slut.” By saying “boys will be boys” she exonerates Cain, suggesting that he is simply a victim of his hormones. This is particularly offensive given Palin’s claim to be so committed to family values. It is offensive because of the use of women by Todd, and his history of paying women for sex.

Hello. This is “the masseuse” and my name is Shailey Tripp. I think it is very unfair that all these news sources have carried my name and comments about me but have never published anything I have sent in as a comment or my side of the story. I have a story to tell and it is about todd Palinnot so much about Sarah Palin. Please consider visitng my blog and read the past 6 posts. I think it will explain my fight against the Palins and the police and how they have violated my rights and have tried to scared me into staying quiet. shaileytripp.yolasite.com Also I havebeen sending press releases out to the media for many months and not one media sourcce has even put it up on their web page much less print it. I am the masseuse Sarah Palin refers to in this Hannity exchange.
