I'm truly super embarassed!!!

[FrenchieCat]

Here's why....
when I watched that video of Herman Cain responding to a reporter's question
on Libya as he was just coming out of some kind of venue....this was after
the news broke of his twirling things in his head (saw it on the Daily Show),
and where he responded "Nine, nine, nine"....or "Nein, Nein, Nein",
I really wasn't all that surprised about that.....

But I was surprised that he seemed to be eating something at the time,
and as he was walking....when he answered the question; he did so with a mouth full
of food that was quite noticeable in his mouth as he responded to the camera.

I'm sorry, but I have never seen a presidential candidate do this before....
although I may have missed the occurrence(s).

My point is that this man is an embarrassment is so many ways,
until it is actually quite frightening....and the fact that he's in the top tier,
well, that's truly stupefying.

Truly....

1. Cain is just as brutish and boorish as Bush.

[liberal N proud]

5. That must be why the republicans like him

[Ineeda]

2. IIRC, he's done that before.

I assumed he's a gum chewer. In any case, not befitting a president.

3. But that wasn't gum.....that was a mouthful of food.....

It was a nasty sight that I could have skipped....

[Ineeda]

4. Ewww. Nasty.

His momma didn't teach him basic manners.

[FrenchieCat]

6. Yep....no home training.

7. Being a rich CEO doesn't make you classy

Being classy makes you classy. And usually it's your mother who teaches you classy. Sometimes fathers do to, but there's a reason why they call it "the mom look".

8. President Obama often pisses me off, but he is significantly better than any Republican. nt

9. What's Cuban for "nine nine nine?"

:crazy:

10. It's a good thing he's not a real candidate and is only an art project. nt

11. He smacks his lips loudly when he eats too.

I just saw him on Olbermann eating something and he's a noisy chewer...and chews with his mouth open.

12. Someone other than myself will remember this surely - but GWB - the swinish

one - did that as well. When he was at a state dinner in Europe he is shown talking to ....gracias a Dios the time has passed and I don't remember who....with the food visibly sloshing in his mouth, and he chewed between words.

One of the least attractive things I've seen in my long life.
It was G R O S S.

:puke:

13. Gross, indeed.

...think it was Tony Blair he was addressing, shoved a dinner roll into his mouth before shouting "Yo, Blair!" Lovely way to address another head of state! Of course, he did appear to be quite sloshed -- was that the same trip wherein he manhandled Angela Merkel?

16. You put it all together for me. Thanks. Self-protective mercy

had allowed me to obliterate the full memory. Yes, that is precisely where it was and how it went down.
again

14. I saw that too

and pointed it out to dear hubby. He is apolitical and votes usually after listening to me. My hubby said That man is an idiot!

15. Your hubby would be right!

Amazing!
