The Sexual Harrassement of Herman Cain

The Democrats and the media are surely on a crusade to blacken the name of Herman Cain. It just goes to show how afraid they are of the man. It amazes me how people crawl out of the woodwork to bad mouth an individual, once they are in the public eye.

Sexual Harassment is a foul thing, when it occurs, but it is a perception. Individuals often see things differently and because of how gray this area is, it can make proving sexual harassment extremely difficult. If it does occur, you would expect the financial compensation to have several zeros on the check. From what I have read and heard, it does sound like more of an irritation that the Restaurant Association want to resolve then an actual sexual harassment case.

Let's be real, if an attorney thought there was a lot of money to be made, it would have been a court case or court cases, not a settlement. Now, it just seems like a crusade to bad mouth an outsider. Herman Cain is a businessman, not a career politician  If he is guilty of sexual harassment, then yes, he should step aside.  But if all he is guilty of is being a little flirty or not having these women understand his comments, then the crap needs to stop.

Americans can not afford to be side tracked from the real issues. The media needs to stop their hidden agendas and just report the news. Back in the early 1800's they had a name for this kind of journalism, it was called "Yellow Journalism". So, to the media, just stick to the facts and keep your opinions to yourself, otherwise, just get a late night talk show.

I grew up on names like Huntley, Brinkley and Cronkite. Those were real journalist. So, all I can say is, simply, "Cain has my vote and the votes of these rest of my family."
