Cain Talks Libya, Pulls A Perry

Tyler Durden's picture




So in the Perry aftermath, is everyone now going for the sympathy "I am just as big an idiot as Dubya" card, or are all Republican candidates seriously insane and/or raving, deranged lunatics? Will it seriously be that difficult to give Ron Paul a full body botox, cut off his frontal lobe, have him grope several women, promise to bomb someone or something, execute a few hundred illegal immigrants, and see him gain 200 extra pounds? Because if that is what it will take to make him "appeal" to the general Joe Sixpack, so be it: if America ends up with one of these other muppets it is doomed. Doomed.

As much as I think cain is a tool, I admit he understands the marketing principle of "keep it simple stupid" better than all the other candidates. 9 9 9 is so simple a three year old can repeat it.

Paul is the best one of the bunch by far, but he is too smart for joe sixpack. He needs to learn to really simplify his message in a way that a three year old can repeat it. Because sadly the american intelligence has become like that of a three year old

Here's an eloquent black American leader who did not hesitate on Obama and Libya ... Barack Obama's former supporter, America's most well-known Muslim preacher, Louis Farrakhan:

Amazing intensity here, especially the few seconds starting about 4:30 ... the lead-in to when Farrakhan shouts:

« That's a MURDERER in the White House! Who will say It? I will! Because I have a POWER behind me that is bringing America to judgement as we speak ... »

AdahPrice's picture

There is no similarity between Louis Farrakan and Benedict Arnold.  There is a similarity between Louis Farrakan and Patrick Henry, because Patrick Henry was an orator and crusader.  Benedict Arnold was just a soldier, and though he was a pretty good fighter, he was a very bad soldier, because when he didn't get the promotion he thought he deserved, he betrayed his fellow soldiers to the enemy, abandoning his post and giving it to the enemy, in a move which, had it succeeded, might have given the enemy the war.  Again, there is no similarity between Louis Farrakan and Benedict Arnold.  Before you pull names out of history and use them, please read their history.

Mon, 11/14/2011 - 21:01 | 1877704 Everybodys All ...
Everybodys All American's picture

You are clueless about what Mr. Farrakan and the Nation of Islam advocate. My history is fine ... how is your reading comprehension.

AdahPrice's picture

You have made no argument.

My cluelessness is not an argument.

My lack of reading comprehension is not an argument.

Again, comparing Farrakan to Arnold is arguing that Farrakan was in a position to give the country to a declared enemy, and used that position in an attempt to do so.  The fact is that Farrakan has never been in such a position.  Therefore, your comparison of Farrakan to Arnold is an obvious failure.  If you go around saying things like that to people who are not clueless and who have good reading comprehension, you will embarrass them and yourself.  Better to take the time to find a good comparison.  There is always a good comparison if you dig deep enough.

Mon, 11/14/2011 - 21:53 | 1877848 Everybodys All ...
Everybodys All American's picture

Never meant to be literal but I'm good with the comparison.

Considered by many to be a former (and by some, a present) competitor to Malcolm X, Farrakhan made numerous incendiary statements about him, contributing to what was called a "climate of vilification".[6] This may have contributed to what ultimately led to the assassination of Malcolm X at a time when he was beginning to distance himself from the NOI after his hajj to Mecca.[6] Three men from a Newark, New Jersey, NOI mosque were convicted of the killing and served prison sentences.[citation needed] Farrakhan was the keynote speaker at the Newark temple the same day that Malcolm X was assassinated.

We don't give a damn about no white man law if you attack what we love. And frankly, it ain't none of your business. What do you got to say about it? Did you teach Malcolm? Did you make Malcolm? Did you clean up Malcolm? Did you put Malcolm out before the world? Was Malcolm your traitor or ours? And if we dealt with him like a nation deals with a traitor, what the hell business is it of yours? You just shut your mouth, and stay out of it. Because in the future, we gonna become a nation. And a nation gotta be able to deal with traitors and cutthroats and turncoats. The white man deals with his. The Jews deal with theirs.[38][39][40]

In a 60 Minutes interview that aired during May 2000, Farrakhan stated that some of the things he said may have led to the assassination of Malcolm X. "I may have been complicit in words that I spoke", he said. "I acknowledge that and regret that any word that I have said caused the loss of life of a human being."[43] A few days later Farrakhan denied that he "ordered the assassination" of Malcolm X, although he again acknowledged that he "created the atmosphere that ultimately led to Malcolm X's assassination."[44]

This is where you say well played homes.

Arnold is an interesting case.  Before you buy into the "MSM"/American patriot narrative, you might wish to read some of Kenneth Roberts' well-researched novels dealing with him. 

 

Arnold was virtually the sole US commander responsible for the victory at Saratoga, which redically changed the course of the struggle.  He was indeed a "good fighter" as you put it.

 

But he feared the consequences of the French alliance.  Perhaps he should have been more worried about the eventual British alliance.  Cecil Rhodes, WWI (Balfour declaration, Brandeis appointment, Wilson stupidity, suicide of the West, etc).

@Everybodys All...

Nothing crazy about Minister Farrakhan.  He's been speaking truth to power for years and been villified, defamed and ridiculed for it.  Interview Minister Farrakhan about Libya and Gadhafi and you'll hear the truth spoken by a man who doesn't need a teleprompter or speech writer.  My first clue he spoke truth was his 1995 lecture 'The Conspiracy of the International Bankers - The Takeover of America' - true then and even more true today.

"Bush has spent more than a year of his presidency" at his ranch in Crawford, Texas. On August 19, 2005, "he broke Ronald Reagan's record of 335 days for America's most vacationed president and went on to take the longest presidential vacation in 36 years," Dale McFeatters wrote August 8, 2006, in a ScrippsNews editorial.

Once he got going, he made sense, Perry and Bush just totally flopped.  Bush couldn't think of any mistake he ever made for over 30 seconds and blamed not being able to think on his feet.  Perry just looked like a buffoon.  Cain was OK, I know what he was talking about, the friggin opposition had elements of AQ in it.  How smart is it for us to be supporting AQ?
