Herman Cain's 'counter attack' on Sharon Bialek is as disgusting as the man himself
From a Cain press release:

As Ms. Sharon Bialek has placed herself in the public spotlight through making patently false allegations against Herman Cain, it is only fair to compare her track record alongside Mr. Cain’s.
In stark contrast to Mr. Cain’s four decades spent climbing the corporate ladder rising to the level of CEO at multiple successful business enterprises, Ms. Bialek has taken a far different path.

The fact is that Ms. Bialek has had a long and troubled history, from the courts to personal finances – which may help explain why she has come forward 14 years after an alleged incident with Mr. Cain, powered by celebrity attorney and long term Democrat donor Gloria Allred. <...>

In personal finances, PACER (Federal Court) records show that Ms. Bialek has filed for bankruptcy in the Northern District of Illinois bankruptcy court in 1991 and 2001. The respective case numbers according to the PACER system are 1:01-bk-22664 and 1:91-bk-23273.

Ms. Bialek has worked for nine employers over the last seventeen years. Source: WLS-TV, November 7, 2011

2. Wow!
So bankruptcy is the Scarlett letter?

Also-- working for 9 different jobs in 17 years is not that uncommon....Hell--- I may have done that because most of the companies I worked for bellied up.

12. It's okay when the holy job creators go bankrupt
that's just a test of their Jesus-y fortitude
but when a hippy-socialist-commie-pinko runs out of honest rich people to steal from, well then they leave a trail of evidence that they just didn't work hard enough to become rich

15. Dear Herb, she isn't saying your track records are the same...
...she's saying you sexually assaulted her...

If she had a "track record" it would be one littered with multiple accusations of inappropriate sexual behavior against multiple famous/powerful men. This is incorrect. She has made that accusation only once. About you. But as long as we're "comparing track records" let's take a look at yours shall we? So far four different women have let it be known that you made inappropriate sexual advances to each of them separately.

So, to be clear, Ms Bialek has made one claim, Herman Cain has had FOUR claims made against him....so it seems that YOU are the one with the "track record", not Ms Bailek...

A little word of advice Herb, you see that little red light that just turned on? That's your "career dissipation warning light"...it just went into overdrive..

16. "her track record alongside Mr. Cain’s" ...
okay ... how many women did Mrs. Bialek pay off to keep their mouths shut?

We know Cain paid off at least 3 ...
