In Cain and Perry's gaffes, the Republicans' degradation is laid bare

[CHIMO]

During an interview with the Christian Broadcast Network last month, the Republican presidential hopeful Herman Cain was asked whether he was ready to answer questions on international affairs.

"Are you prepared for the gotcha questions that are coming from the media and others on foreign policy?" asked David Brody. "Who is the president of Ubekistan ? All this stuff. It's coming. How are you dealing with it?"

Bear in mind that this was not, itself, a "gotcha question". It was a friendly attempt by a conservative interviewer to allow Cain to get his excuses in early for his lack of foreign policy expertise. But rather than use the question to deflect those inevitable accusations, Cain embraced his ignorance as though it were a badge of honour.

"I'm ready for the gotcha questions," insisted Cain . "They've already started coming. 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?"

He sounds like GWB in that regard.. He had neither a clue when it came to names of leaders outside the US... We all remember when the clown was asked to name the leader of the military dictator who made a coup in Pakistan in late 1999, Perzewez Musharaf, and we all know the answer to that.... The General.. That was the only answer that clown could get...

And we all know, that he was "elected" President of the United States of America... And he almost ruined US in so many ways.. US and the rest of the world cannot afford another GWB... And mr Cain sounds like another GWB..

3. Islam Karimov was, and AFAIK still is the "President" of Uzbekistan...

Really more of a dictator though... And I didn't even have to use the Google. Maybe I should run for the Republican Presidential nomination. Apparently I'm more intelligent than all of the clowns who are currently running.

4. Cain just a token black, affirmative action at its worse

Cain was just the token black at all those boards. He just collected his pay, groped women, signed in, and ate the doughnuts.
I seriously doubt they even asked his opinion on anything. The man has no sense, no morals, no ethics, and just is milking the system.
