‘Stuff Twirling’: Flustered Herman Cain Struggles to Answer Libya Question During Newspaper Interview

Herman Cain | Libya Question | Milwauke Journal Sentinel

The Herman Cain campaign seems to be in crisis mode as Cain’ s wife has emerged from silence to support the candidate against infectious sexual harassment allegations to new polls showing a surge in support for Newt Gingrich, taking the short-lived role Cain had as the chief opponent to the GOP presidential primary frontrunner Mitt Romney.

Cain has appeared to suffer another blow today, as the candidate has been heavily criticized in the media for an odd video interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that shows Cain stumbling while answering a question about President Obama’s handling of Libya:

From the beginning of his answer, Cain takes a long pause (9 seconds) before speaking with what appears to be a twitching left eye. When words come out of his mouth, it does not get any better:

“Libya. President Obama supported the uprising, correct? President Obama called for the removal of Qadhafi. Just want to make sure we’re talking about the same thing before I say, yes I agree, I know I didn’t agree. I do not agree with the way he handled it for the following reason — no, that’s a different one. I gotta go back to … Got all this stuff twirling around in my head. Specifically, what are you asking me, did I agree or not disagree with on what? … Here’s what I would have — I would have done a better job of determining who the opposition is and I’m sure that our intelligence people have some of that information. Based upon who made up that opposition — based upon who made up that opposition, might have caused me to make some different decisions about how we participated. Secondly, no, I did not agree with Qadhafi killing his citizens. Absolutely not. So something would have had to be — I would have supported many of the things they did in order to help stop that. It’s not a simple yes-no, because there are different pieces and I would have gone about assessing the situation differently, which might have caused us to end up in the same place. But where I think more could have been done was, what’s the nature of the opposition?

POLITICO‘s Alexander Burns transcribed Cain’s “doozy of an answer,” emphasizing the point in time where Cain realizes he is commenting on the wrong situation.

Cain also said that he supports collective bargaining for public employees and mistakenly said federal workers already have the right to bargain collectively. These comments come in the state where the battle between the Scott Walker-led GOP statehouse and public sector unions has played out as one of the biggest political story lines of the year.

CBS News notes that Cain stumbled badly on the Libya question Monday despite avoiding major gaffes in Saturday’s foreign policy debate. That said, the network notes that Cain,who has no foreign policy experience, offered vague answers when pressed on foreign policy questions.

The Atlantic writes that Monday’s odd interview is latest in a string of foreign policy gaffes by the Georgia businessman from not knowing what Palestinian “right of return” was to saying that knowing who is the head of “small insignificant states around the world” is not critical to national security, to being unable to offer a full answer on whether an alleged Iranian plot to assassinate the Saudi ambassador was an act of war.

Cain’s spokesman and national security adviser J.D. Gordon  told the New York Times that Cain was asked the question Monday toward the end of a 45-minute session amid a long day of traveling. Gordon continued that Cain has been spending “anywhere from 10 minutes to several hours a day boning up on national security issues,” as well as speaking with the likes of former President George H.W. Bush and former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

      As for Cain: “Rick Perry received the most favorable coverage of any candidate for president during the first five months of the race, BUT NOW Herman Cain is enjoying that distinction, according to a new survey which combines traditional research methods and computer algorithmic technology to code the level and tone of news coverage.”

      Thanks blaze for blocking this post before, afraid of it?

      HERE IS THE PROBLEM WITH CAIN (from jsonline)
      On the issue of collective bargaining, Cain said he supported the right of public employees to bargain collectively.

      “But not collective hijacking. What I mean by that, if they have gotten so much for so many years and it’s going to bankrupt the state, I don’t think that’s good. It appears that in some instances, they really don’t care.”…

      In an interview with the Journal Sentinel last month, Cain said that he was “right in the corner of Gov. Scott Walker 100%” in Walker’s battle with public employee unions.

      Cain also appeared to be unclear on the issue of collective bargaining as it involves federal employees. Asked if he thought federal employees should have the ability to bargain collectively, Cain said: “They already have it, don’t they?”

      Told they didn’t, he said, “They have unions.”

      STOP CIRCLING THE WAGONS AND WAKE UP!

      Honestly, how many on this thread could answer that same question without waiting briefly, stumbling and resetting your answer? 

      Cain is a spokesman and not the leader/creator of the plans he presents, therefore, he struggles to “remember” what he was told to say…..

Paul want to give us our freedoms..build our military and keep it at home..We become a stronger nation that way..if we keep going as is..we will go under NWO and we will all be slaves. They don’t care about us. I understand Cain makes money off Arab countries. He ran the Federal Reserve and did not want them audited. He is not your friend.

      why can’t you support his foreign policy? How do you plan to balance the budget while starting another war with Iran? Paul said if the congress sees a credible threat, they can vote and go to war and finish it. What more do you want? We already spend 6 times as much as China on our foreign policy and all the others are calling for MORE SPENDING! Please tell me your plan to balance the budget, because you will have to cut a lot more than Paul’s 5 government agencies (which some neocons are already whimpering about) if you plan to raise military spending.

      ….I am honestly confused. Did everyone responding here actually watch the video or are you just reacting to the headline? The question asked of Cain is very vague. He asks for clarification on a couple points. Asks for “specific” criteria so he can formulate a good answer. His answer is spot on. Who is the opposition? Of course we don’t support Quadafi killing his people. What did he “struggle” with???……. anyone?

      I love listening to Glenn Beck. But, have you ever really paid attention to the amount of time he spends on the radio saying something like “ummm. We are working on, ummmm, something that, ummmmm, is going, uhhhhh, ummmmm, well, uh it’s ummmm,….” etc. Perhaps The Blaze should use the same criteria they did in coming up with the headline for this article for one on the topic of Beck’s radio show. I can see it now…Flustered Glenn Beck Struggles To Host National Radio Show.

      Sorry my friend, I know that you see Cain as a business man and an outsider, but that is far from the truth.

      1. He served as chairman of the Kansas City Fed and says he didn’t know of any wrongdoing and mocked those who wanted a full audit.

      2. He praised the economy saying it was surging two weeks before collapse, and ridiculing those who were saying otherwise.

      This guy is a train wreck waiting to happen. Even his success at Godfathers pizza has been looked at as weak.

      3.Paul would not serve under a Cain presidency. He would not stand for an income tax and a sales tax. Paul wants to get rid of taxes all together, not start new ones. Cain has not detailed any cuts in spending and has actually said he wants to INCREASE SPENDING. There is no way to balance the budget like that, and Paul would have no part in it.

      Actually, he reflected the Republican position quite well, once he realized his trainers hadn’t prepared him for this question. Then he backed off and said he would have gotten all the information and – take his word for it – made a better decision.

      Anyway, that’s the perfect Republican response. Republicans were against the US involvement when we took the lead. Then when we insisted other countries share the commitment and other countries became more involved, they said Obama was violating the War Powers Act, then when the government of Lybia was overthrown and Quadafi was killed, Republicans said President Obama was weak and didn’t lead the way.

      The Republican opinion has been and continues to be all over the map, and has taken both sides of every issue, sometimes flip flopping one day to the next. The only constant is that whatever President Obama did, it was wrong.

      Friends, Cain, Bachmann and Perry are clueless. If Cain can‘t answer a junior reporter’s question about a dramatic, recent, world event, even just temporize without sounding like an idiot, how is he going to deal with world leaders?

It is your opinion that Paul would not beat Obama, but I know plenty of people who believe Paul is the ONLY one who could beat him. All the other GOPers will cast their vote for whoever has an R beside their name, and only Paul will stand with his pricipals and not stand with others who do not stand for limited government like him. So he is the only one that all republicans would stand with, thus the only one that can win.

      Howdy my friend! I must disagree with you and say the opposite to be true. Simply sort the articles by politics and you will see 40-50 Cain articles. The rest have way way way fewer like in the teens and Paul has like 5. 

      The Blaze is slanted for Cain. Even some Cain supporters have stated that themselves. 

      Hope you are well. Stay safe!!!

      I don’t recall saying anything about the media. I said people that support RP are not very nice as a whole. As for the coming collapse… I am prepared…. maybe more than you. Your response is exactly why I don’t like RP supporters. I said one thing and you twisted it all around to suit your needs. You can’t read without your RP colored glasses I guess. Just like your picture of RP as Superman flying through the air. When you respond to my posts please respond to what I actually said and not your conclusions about what you think I’mm thinking.

      @ Shasta,
      Just because a person’s plan on foreign relations is simple, does not mean that it is naive or underthought. In fact, when you compare Ron’s views on foreign affairs to what is going on today, I would have to say that he makes current policians look like a group of 14 year old girls bickering over a bottle of nailpolish. He is the only one who appears to use commonsense and act like an adult!

      -Ending Foreign Aid

      Those 8 points above would gain majority support for Ron Paul…

      Ron Paul does not flip flop, isn’t backed by Wall Street, and does not support world Governemnt.

      I was hopeful for Herman Cain but after listening to the debates, he is not strong on foregin policy at all. For me, I don‘t think he is ready to be POS and I’m sad to say that because I really like him, but we are at a crossroads in this country and we need a leader who understands all aspects of the position. However, I just saw Newt on Hannity and he was excellent. Even the Dems on the progran were impressed and said it looks like he is a different man from years ago and Newt explained why. I am really leaning toward him. I believe there is no question that he could defeat Obama. Truly an intelligent and articulate man.

I watch all the MSNBC programs so I can see what they are thinking and planning. Tonight, Rachel Maddow was grinning and commenting on how wonderful it was that Gingrich was ahead in the pools.

Cains church has had such personalities as Jesse Jackson..who is friend to Jeremia Wright-Obamas preacher,whos friends with Louis Farakan..head of the Nation of Islam in the US.

      I couldn’t care less what OWS are doing or where they stay but I am smart enough to realize they vote and if alienated by the right they will for sure vote Obama leading to his victory. 

      Now if the right nominates a candidate that understands their protest, anti-bailout and crony-capitalism, then the right might just win some of that vote and redirect that movements direction from communism back to capitalism.

      Agreed; you make a valid point. I’ll choose my words my carefully.
      I’m worried about foreign policy. Especially Iran and nukes. I heard RP talk about it and it seemed he was living back in another time. I’m well acquainted with the Iranian Governments ideology about the 12th Imam (or Mahdi) and what they say in needed to bring him back. Also, how they feel about the USA. They need the deaths of about 3M people, all at once, to bring the Mahdi back. RP’s stance on letting Iran get nukes “because a few other Nations have them” scares me as much as Obama does.

His response to the question is what I would like to hear from a potential candidate, not one of you on here had the Intel to make a sound decision and that is what Herman Cain was trying to convey. The 9 second delay as use call it in the spotlight he has been in the last week and a half would draw me to have some concern of the question that was asked personally when most candidates were asked this question or asked a question of similar magnitude the response should be I don’t have all the facts to surmise what I may have done.

The question is, will the hardcore Cain supporters finally snap out of it and realize that he is inept and unprepared for the Presidency?… And you say Ron Paul’s following is cultish?! I think Cain could take a hammer to an infant and these guys would still be praising him.

      I think the reporter could have been much harder on him. Someone needs to sit with him and ask him some hard questions to show beyond a shadow of a doubt – even for Cain supporters – that he should not be the President.

      I hear your concern. Let’s analyze it. 

      If you do understand Shia Islam you understand before the Mahdi can return the Sufayani must come into existence thru Syria, not just chaos and 3m dead. You also understand the Saudi Kind (Family) will do everything in it’s power to eliminate the Persian Shia claims, even as far as work with Israel due to Shia belief rivaling their own Sunni belief. 

      As for whether we allow or disallow Iran having Nukes: do we actually have a say? If Shia Islam wants to conquer the World why does it not concern China or Russia, Iran’s neighbors? China and Russia are both infidels as well….

      How does America stop Iran from gaining nukes? 
      If military force, will another war by America cause more hatred towards us or will it make them love us? 

      I get you, Iran + Nukes + death to America is a concern. We just must look at the bigger picture and actuality of such combination. Look forward to your thoughts.

      @ Truthseeker-

      I agree with you completely! And would like to add a few thoughts of my own. First of all, I can’t watch the video. We just moved and our present internet just won’t allow video. But, I have seen Herman Cain in the hot seat several times where he has done remarkably well. He is always very quick with a relative and thoughtful response. If he wasn’t so quick here it just tells me that he is the real deal. He is human and genuine. Seems to me that was the whole appeal about him in the first place- that he is not rehearsed and just because he has a loss for words he doesn’t just make stuff up in order to seem better informed. This would is what a career politician would do. Cain is not a career politician and I thought that is what folks liked so much about him. Isn’t that the difference between him and our present teleprompter-in-chief? Again, I can’t watch the video for myself, but perhaps it is fatigue. It seems absurd to me that conservatives say they want a change in Washington. No more phonies, no more politicians that are as fake as a three-dollar bill, and yet they scorn a candidate for being just that- a regular person, human and imperfect. For me, I am not looking for a president who can deliver a perfect speech every time or thoughtlessly answer significant questions in seconds. Yes, there is a time and place for such grilling, but casual media is not one of them.

If you go back and rewind the tape you‘ll see that first it was Rick Santorum the one who couldn’t win reelection, then Michele Bachmann with the headaches, then all the gaffes from Rick Perry and had hidden rock, now Herman Cain with the alleged sexual harassment, that if Newt Gingrich shall go on top it will be the treatment of his past wives question is most people haven’t realized what both parties and the media are doing. Now I know I’ll hear it from the people that support Ron Paul that he is the best candidate but the fact remains in most national polls he cannot obtain more than 12% support how do you expect to win the presidency with that percentage. Because people like myself consider themselves conservative would most likely be a no vote and will continue to find someone to get behind which in the end may be a losing cause. That is just the nature of where this country is once again it is the people we elect to Congress that makes our laws we live by. Just ask Jack the man that got out of prison recently where the real power lies, yes the president has a agenda but if you have a moral majority that would do right for the country this country would prosper until that time it does not matter really who sits in the White House.

      Okie,
      “You are wrong Dave, supporting Ron Paul will be the only way for a Republican victory.”
      ================================================================
      You know, and I know, that RP winning the Primary will doom us to 4 more years of Obama. You simply refuse to say it.
      Look, if I thought Paul had a chance of beating Obama over the other candidates running then I would be right there supporting him. However, most Americans know that Ron Paul has been a politician for 35 years and he has nothing to show for it. He is a talker and not a do-er. Then add to that his foreign policy that most Americans find naive at best, and possibly very dangerous, then you have a recipe for disaster. Paul is a train-wreck looking for tracks to fall off of.
      Our goal for this election is to fire Obama… so voting for RP because of principle is a fanciful dream of those that live in a fantasy world. I pray you RP folks “get it” in time to make it matter.

      Shasta, Once I read your post I had to respond. You are completely wrong on Pauls foriegn policy stance. He is probably the best candidate on defense than any of the other candidates. By continuing to keep and pay for our military across the world, we stand to see the dollar fall. If this happens, we will see our Government fall. If this happens, we will be at the greatest risk our country has seen since we signed the Declaration of Independance. We will be taken over by the U.N. who wants to disarm us and put us in a One World Order (OWO). Take a look at our debt clock: http://www.usdebtclock.org/ and then consider how long we have. I say we are going to have an economic crash no matter who we put in. The question then is: who do we want in there when this happens? Someone who will continue the big Gov ideas, or someone who believes in our Constitution and will do everything he can to ensure that Individual Liberty continues in our society? I will trust noone with this task other than Ron Paul, as he has always been a straight shooter and tells the truth no matter how bad it is and how much we don’t want to hear it. Aren’t you tired of being lied to by the candidates and the media???

      First, don’t play naive. If I constantly called you a progressiveBot you would feel insulted as well. Show some respect for your fellow Republicans if you want us to actually listen to you at all. 

      Second, I 100% disagree with you. Ron Paul is the only one who can beat Obama. The rest of the candidates will lose to Obama as much as I hate to say it. Statistically, Republicans must steal Democratic and Independent votes as well as turn out it’s base to win. 

      Romney-No way his platform of flip flops steals any votes let alone rallies the base. 

      Cain-No way with his blunders, his previous support of the Fed and his association to big business does he steal any votes let alone rallies the base. 

      Newt-His history as Speaker, his flip flops, and his elite attitude will not steal any votes.  

      Ron’s platform would steal 10-15% of the non progressives disappointed in Obama who agree with those principles. 

      You are a partyest, the very people the founders disliked for you have no principle or values but simply harbor hate for the other side. Until you change that position you will never gain my support and about 15-20% of the Republican base agrees with me. So be careful Partyest alienating that 15-20% because not only will you not steal any votes but you will lose almost a quarter of your own base.

      Wow, the Ron Paulbots are like vultures waiting to feast. I have a problem telling them apart from the lying liberal trolls. Which should be a big issue with serious American citizens. The Saul Alinsky tactics that the liberals use are being duplicated by the Ron Paul supporters. I could never vote for Paul after seeing what kind of fruit loops and nut jobs that Paul seems to draw into his fold.

      Did Cain handle this question perfectly from the start? No. Who cares. Is this to say nobody cares? Not at all. Its just that those that do care are the type that are straining at gnats and swallowing camels. If we wanted nothing but smooth talkers we can stick with that idiot man child Obama.

      Is the libya question as easy as some make it out to be? Heck no. There is intrigue within intrigue within the arab spring, the muslim brotherhood, etc. Is it easy to say who to support in a situation like this? Again, heck no. Is Cain glad Ghadafi is dead? Certainly. Is he glad that those now in control there are in control? Heck no again. It is a mess there and will take decades to clean up, if that soon.

      Let me remind you of one of the greatest prophets of God. Moses. Moses referred to himself as being “slow of speech” and thought God erred in calling him to lead his people out of Egypt. God nevertheless stuck with Moses for wiser reasons that most people here would understand.

      Especially these lame PaulBots here. Sheesh, what a parade of buffoons.

      This comment is directed to you. I will ignore the Paulists, first because their cultic references to Paul annoy me, and second because they will not soil themselves by voting for anyone else. Some Paul supporters are not cultic, but they support him for the wrong reasons, e.g., because they hate Jews/Israel.

      IMO, all the candidates have serious misgivings, but there are two, Paul and Huntsman, who are traitors and have some nerve running as Repubs. The former because he worked for the uppercase traitor, and the latter because he will effectively re-elect the uppercase traitor, by refusing to endorse another candidate if he does not win the Repub nomination. It shows that Paul is a self-centered, self-righteous manipulator and a career politician. That’s the biggie.

      In re foreign policy, e.g., he told truthers — yeah, those are fans too — that he did not trust our govt. (Bush). I find that highly ironic given that he is willing to trust Iran with a nuclear bomb. Paul reminds me of candidate Obum when he mockingly said, “Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, these countries are tiny…They don’t pose a serious threat to us.” Both men are on the political fringe. No thanks.

      Now, since you are too stupid to look past any insults since you have no defense for either yourself or your nutcase leader Ron Paul, I will have to simply continue with my enlightened opinion on this subject.

      We do not need a smooth talker. Neither Moses, whom God chose, nor Herman Cain, whom conservatives choose, 4 to 1 over Ron Paul, need to be smooth talkers. What we want are honest people with some common sense. And Ron Paul seems honest, but he seems to be mostly void of common sense. Cain is by far the better choice over Ron Paul. And Ron Paul followers really do seem to be some of dumber voters from the semi-conservative camp.

      Herman is a smooth talker. These are not his plans, they are his handlers plans, just like Obama. Herman cannot be a honest man if he has flip flopped 9 times. His Church preaches Social Justice. Cain cannot even answer basic questions on 9-9-9 without referring back to slogans. Cain supporters are sheep who first started with Bachmann, then Perry, then Cain, and now Newt. That is what sheep or cattle do, move like a herd. If they were planted in principle and values their first candidate would still have their support. Herman is a broken Cain. He will not recover. Ron Paul is 15-20% constantly. It only takes 10% to turn the tide.

      Since you constantly speak of Foreign Policy, I’ll give a good overview of what foreign policy under Progressive Republicans and Democrats have given us thus far.

      2001-al-Qaeda’s main base for training, planning, concentrating manpower, storing of arms and ordnance, etc. was in Afghanistan. It had presence in other countries but it’s only secure FOB was Afghanistan. 

      2011-al-Qaeda is still in parts of Afghanistan; a solid presence in Pakistan and Yemen; recouped in Iraq; influencing Somalia; growing in Mahgreb rapidly; and now has affiliates in Lebanon and Palestine. 

      Ten years of war has done nothing to quell al-Qaeda, in fact, it has legitimized it thru giving credence to Osama‘s claim’s to incite Muslims to wage jihad. 

      bin Laden regarded al-Qaeda as an organization to be inciters of jihad against the US, it’s allies and their own tyrannical rulers. Even with bin Laden dead he left a self-perpetuating movement legitimized by the US led invasion of Iraq provide by defensive jihad in the Koran. 

      bin Laden based jihad on what the US was doing in Muslim land, not on how we in the States live, think, and behave here. bin Laden jihad was all based on our action there. 

      The goal was:
      1st-exploit international economic conditions to further the US into financial collapse.
      2nd-spread out US military and intel forces to reduce flexibility and drain resources
      3rd-create dissent within the US and strip our allies.

Paul is for getting us back to Individual Liberty which is what our country was founded on and what made it great. It is only the last century of Progressive views, like your own, that has put us in the mess we are in now. Paul is the only one speaking out on this and has been for a long time, but people like you who just sit back and listen to the media’s lies are the ones who do not get it. I do believe you have a chance at coming to a logical decision if you would, first, read the Constitution and the Federalist Papers, second, research Paul and all his voting over his career. You will see that he adheres to the principles set out in the Constitution every time. Noone else is doing this. I will vote for the candidate that will take his oath to protect and defend the Constitution seriously.

      For decades, a little over 4 of them, we supported tyranny in the Arab world that gave us access to cheap oil, a means to defend Israel, and persecution of Islamist leaders. 

      The Arab spring resulted in us retreating from backing tyranny and in doing so we lost our strategic position in the ME in the name of “democracy” across the region…..This loss in position actually advanced al-Qaeda’s 1st 2 objectives stated above: drive US out and topple tyrant Arab leadership….

      Now, we hear you and all the Progressive right chant take down Syria and take out Iran. If Syria and Iran are bombed and invaded by US it will only strengthen bin Laden’s al-Qaeda jihad and eventually lead to completion of al-Qaeda’s objectives and unification of a Sunni Caliphate. 

      The foreign policy of both Progressive policies in the ME has only harmed the US and drastically put Israel in more danger by destabilizing all her border countries. We are further from defeating “terrorism” then we started as our foreign policy thus far only legitimized terrorists cause.

      Cain is getting favorable coverage in the media? You are brain dead. They attack who they’re afraid of. Look up Guided Democracy on the internet. It means the President has more power, and the elections are guided so that the person they want gets in, and no policy changes are actually made. The media does it so that it doesn’t look so obvious. The first time it happened was in Indonesia in 1967…..sound familiar? That’s the same year Obama (Barry Soetoro) got there. About the same time he declared in kindergarten that he wanted to be president. He saw what power the President had in Indonesia. Now he sees the American President has to share his power with the other two branches of government and isn’t happy about it. He is using the media to handpick his replacement so his policies will continue, even if he doesn’t get elected. Look at who the media is attacking and who they’re ignoring. They may very well give Perry a pass…….he’s possibly a Rino, I haven’t made up my mind. They obviously don’t feel threatened by Ron Paul (though I feel uncomfortable around his zombies, I agree with a lot he says). They handle Romney with kid gloves, because he IS a RINO. And they don‘t touch Huntsman because no one even mentions that he’s a Mormon, too. You have to not go by the media. They used that technique in Indonesia….destroy all the opponents and no one runs against you.

      “Should any American soldier be so base and infamous as to injure any [prisoner]. . . I do most earnestly enjoin you to bring him to such severe and exemplary punishment as the enormity of the crime may require. Should it extend to death itself, it will not be disproportional to its guilt at such a time and in such a cause… for by such conduct they bring shame, disgrace and ruin to themselves and their country.” – George Washington, charge to the Northern Expeditionary Force, Sept. 14, 1775

      Go on, call Washington a traitor for not complying with the Cain, Bachmann, Romney, Gingrich, Santorum and Perry torture mantra.

      Oh, and add Ronald Reagan to your traitor list. He actually got Congress to pass a ‘no torture’ agreement with the UN.

      Oh, and what about the Japanese soldiers who were hanged for waterboarding Americans? Maybe we should pardon them now since they were only doing what was necessary to get pertinent information.

      Waterboarding has been around since the 14th century and was used by, among others, the Spanish Inquisition, and we all know how wretched those guys were. Guess your guys are in ‘good’ company.

      The problem with Paul is two fold:
      1) He stands on principles that weaken America globally. He wants to end the wars in order to cease spending and cut the budget. However, terrorism will simply increase and be given time to realign and attack again. And I am afraid that his cutting plans would lead us into a worse defensive capability. Not to mention, you can not stop ALL foreign aid. Doing such will place us in a very bad position globally. There are some areas we can cut, but a only a moron would think that all foreign aid needs to be cut. There is a reason why countries don’t like us and it is the arrogant American behavior like giving the money for aid but than throwing in the global face on look what we did.
      2) Alienating America in an isolationist stance in a global economy will cripple America – plain and simple. What we need to do is tackle the regulations and taxes here first in order to start business growth and bring back many of the lost manufacturing jobs. Simply stating that America needs to pull out of the Global market (and cutting aid) in order to do this will make no friends and result in a negative response from the initiative taken to tact the course in the trade deficit. We can not do it on our own at the current state of affairs. Nor have we tackled many issues here that do not require more money, but a better focus on cutting the waste by better scrutinizing the administration of our social programs. Let alone reeducating the populace.

      Funny, cain supporters try to trash Ron Paul’s constitutional foreign policy. (Let‘s NOT borrow money that we can’t pay plus interest to then GIVE it to other countries) Here is a man with NO policy and makes it up as he goes along. He really wants to be neocon, he just can’t remember what he was told to think. Nothing like rolling the dice.

      Charity/foreign aid is a PRIVATE matter not a matter for the federal government. I don’t need the gov to tell me that I must give to Israel while they give 10 times more to phallicstine. I can decide where my charity goes. Right Beck? Right?

      All the the Church of the Paul people on here need to understand these things:

      - Paul is a Libertarian/Isolationist. (like Buchanan)
      - Paul is pro life.
      - Paul supports the Christian Ideaology.
      - Paul has only one solution to foreign policy; don’t get involved. (it’s a bit late for that stance.. since we are already involved and we will receive criticism for “backing down.”)
      - Paul believes we should abolish Federal Income taxation (agreed… i’ll give you one. hes right it is unconstitutional.)
      - Paul believes in the legalization of cannabis. (the real reason most Paul followers want him elected.)
      - Paul has no end game when it comes to current wars we are in except “withdraw the troops.” This with Israel facing certain annihilation at the hands of Islamic extremists in Iran (which according to UN reports, is very possible.. maybe before Christmas.) sends a message that we are weak and will not stand to defend our allies.
      - Israel about 3 weeks ago had reports of a “dummy warhead” being shot into a city zone. The primary suspect is the Irani military. With Paul’s weak stance; I cannot see him defending honor in the middle east in the event of a major conflict or worse.. a nuclear war.
      - Overall, I like a whole lot of Paul’s message regarding finances. But he is to undefined and inexperienced beyond pushing a pencil and doing good math. I could see him as Secretary of Treasury, however.

      @Kryptonite
      Funny, I support Paul and I don’t hate Jews. But that’s not really fair I guess because I am a Jew. What I do find offensive is my U.S. gov funding for and against their own interest with money borrowed at interest. There is no provision to borrow money, which we can’t pay beck, plus interest to then give it away to Israel and then also turn around and give ten times more to Israel’s enemies. Show me the constitutional allowance for this or shut up about things you do not understand.

      I want the U.S. out of Israel’s way. We are not world police. We are a haven for liberty. I want to choose to whom I give foreign aid. I don’t want the government deciding this for me. They are not allowed to do so! So, before you start with your venom back at me, answer two questions or don’t bother at all:
      1. What mathematical genius plan is it to borrow money, give it away, and pay back more than you borrowed?
      2. What authority does the constitution give the the federal government to seize tax payer money and give it to other countries?

      You have no right, and neither does the government, to force people to pay taxes to give money to Jews (me) especially in another country. If I needed money I would not want it from someone that hated me. That money comes with strings attached and in Israel’s case it is interfering with the ability of Israel to wipe out its enemies.

      Most of you are failing mention that the initial question was rather vague:
      “Do you agree with President Obama on Libya or not?”

      On what part of Libya? On what part of the plan, or the military aid? On the support of the rebellion or the actions of the Gadhafi?

      The question brings up to many possible answers depending on the exact interpretation of the way it was worded. This is what confused Cain. Along with the lack of sleep. I prefer the fact that he asked for clarification as to understand exactly what the reporter was asking.

      The President will sometimes be wakened in the middle of the night having to answer a serious question or make a serious decision. I prefer a president who says, “Wait a minute… what are the details of the situation?”

      The Paulites expectations are to high. Even Paul himself would need to think on this one. There are many times in the debates that Ron Paul was formulating a response in the debates. Many of which were lacking in quantitative substance.

It was only after reports of Al-Qeida coming onto the battle field that Obama took action with bombing to help the resistance. Which netted the resistance a bunch of ground to air missiles.
      All thsi Ron Paul crap is just that Crap .. he is clueless thinking that the USA is far removed from Islamic violence.
      What was needed is exactly what Cain said, more deliberate information, better information, intelligence and although unsaid, it did require congressional support.

ZIP-ZERO-NADA! Okie is just one example of what you are talking about. I have been reading Okie’s postings for quite sometime now and some of the things he has claimed are like re-run episodes of the Twilight Zone. That would be acceptable because we have become hardened to some far-out-there thinking, but Paulbots keep acting like Far Left Progressives and that in itself is VERY worrisome.
      In fact, RP’s supporters have been his worst promoters. He would actually be doing better without them making fun of all other candidates and claim that Ron Paul is our saviour. Oh well. As long as they DON’T write-in RP on the general election ballot, I can live with them… if I have to!

      Are you that ignorant of history. Mitt losing to McCain in 2008 has nothing to do with his electability now.

      Ronald Reagan lost the GOP nomination his first run to Gerald Ford. GOP candidates never win on first runs unless they are the standing VP, a Presidents son or have tremendous name recognition like Ike did. That only works for Dems because they have the liberal media to shape their image for them. Matter of fact if they almost have to be completely unknown to win. All three of the lastest Dem presidents were unknown and the two who were the Dem nominee and well known both lost. Al Gore and John Kerry.It takes the four years after the first run to build enough name recognition and clear up the smear job the lamestream done on you. Plus it takes the experience of the first run to make up for the mistakes you made that the media jumped on you about and avoid them pitfalls on next run. Get your history studied before you go shooting off at the mouth. Mitt Romney is our very best hope and is the only one who stands any chance at all of defeating this tyrant want-a-be in our White House.

      Romney is third on my list, with the top two being Cain and Newt. Sorry but I am going to have to correct your poor analysis. The conservative vote last time was split between Romney and Huckabee, with McCain getting the moderates and more liberal votes during the primary. Anybody with brains knows that about that race. Together, Romney and Huckabee easily beat McCain. But that is what happens when you do not have a runoff vote or a preferential voting system.

      I feel it is necessary to “spank” all of the Ron Paul worshipers on here as you have become like rabbits… overrun and rampant on this man’s “outstanding views and personality.” Youngbloodnews probably thinks he defecates rainbow sherbert. Aside from blind faith, all should be very aware of a candidate’s history and should not let a bunch of trolls influence their judgement. These people have done research on the candidate THEY LIKED MOST and decided to bolster his image to people they believe they can influence. Unfortunately, no candidate is perfect and this includes Ron Paul. Ron Paul is pathetically weak on foreign policy and he conveys the image of being an anti-semite through his lack of support of our middle eastern ally Israel. His best idea is that we should isolate ourselves from the rest of the world. Why is this wrong? Because the world too develops and uses variations of weapons technology. Being involved on the world stage ensures we know other technological advances and counter them in the event of a conflict. (The guy with the bigger stick wins.) Not being able to identify other countries defenses and/or offensive strategies would be a death blow to the US in a few years after we become out of touch with the world stage. Essentially, the world has become too small to be ignorant of what your enemy is doing and we will never be able to totally revert to isolationism.

      Since you felt it necessary to try and “spank” Ron Paul supporters, I’m feel it necessary to “slap” you with truth and inform you, you “spanked” nothing but yourself. 

      No one thinks Ron Paul is perfect, but his views are Constitutional and a way to restore our country, not continue progressing like the rest. 

      Ron Paul supports Israel. He believes they can choose what’s best for them which is opposite of what all other candidates believe. He is not anti-Semitic at all. You are anti-American. 

      Ron Paul believes in non-intervention. That means we are friends with anyone who will be friends and compare technology and ideas with those countries. We just don’t subsidize other countries with American dollars. We don’t send our men and women to fight other countries wars.

      Isn’t it isolationist by not talking to other countries, including your enemy? Rut roe…That means those not wanting to talk to Iran, N Korea, Venezuela, etc are isolationists……

      No, the guy with the bigger stick doesn’t always win. The guy with the smartest brain does. Ask Russia who had a way bigger stick then us or Afghanistan. Who won? The ones who out smarted them…..

      Just what one would expect from an isolationist that supports the isolationist candidate. PaulBots prefer a weaker international USA influence. Which is why I say truthfully that it is hard to tell apart the Ron Paul supporters from the Obama supporters. Both fools complain about withdrawing all US troops. Both fools seem to dislike Israel. Both fools seem to be ok with the NYC trophy mosque.

      Since both isolationists and non-interventionists are interchangeable for the most part, I don’t really care how much of a percentage Ron Paul is of either bad quality. All I know is that those that tend to label themselves as non-interventionists tend to share the same bad qualities of isolationists.

      The fact that most conservatives also think that Ron Paul is an isolationist tells me that either Ron Paul is really an isolationist and or that he sure in heck sounds like one.

      The fact that Ron Paul is stuck with that label is not my fault. It is his fault. And because of it, he will lose. So no matter how hard the nitwitted Paulbots scream otherwise, it will not change the perception of Ron Paul.

      Even when Paul is right about a concept, such as property rights of muslims, he still tends to screw up the key debate issue. The NYC trophy mosque for example, was never an issue of property rights. It was an issue of insensitivity. Yet the nitwitted Ron Paul was too darn stupid to see why Americans were complaining against it. Since Ron Paul is that out of touch with reality and so extremist on an issue which was never the issue, well, it just shows how stupid he is.

      Do I need to post the definitions of both to properly educate you? 

      Of you are not a Isolationist or Non-Interventionist then you must be Progressive. World government guy….You align with BO….

      You repeating a false statement makes it your fault. Take some responsibility for your ignorant actions. Your single perception of Ron Paul is not with the majority. Being arrogant you’d like to think that but it is not the case. Because Progressives like you continue to use Saul’s tactic to label Ron an “isolationist” is the only reason it is even said. 

      Wrong. The Mosque is about property rights. Sensitivity has no issue in our Constitution or law. That is Progressive thought and you are too stupid to realize the “PC” view you hold. Because of your “PC” let’s not hurt anyones feelings we can hardly speak, can hardly worship, and have lost a lot of rights. We have to be “sensitive”, “tolerant”, “PC”….Lol you just proved how dumb you really are…

How do you respond to a an attack? How do you go to a war? How do you deal with nuclear weapons? These always fit into your dimwitted 3 types list? Man you Paulbots are dopey simpletons.

      What is baffling me more than anything is the way the right is treating the GOP field. I am not sure how and exactly who is behind creating the talking points in this country, however, it is amazing to watch with a suspicious and discerning eye, not just the MSM and liberals, but those who call themselves conservatives. The superficial criteria for choosing a candidate is scary and makes me think we will never make our way out of this.

      If Jefferson were alive today, with his gawky frame, aloof personality, and poor oratory skills, how would he be judged? How about Franklin? Washington? Lincoln? There is a recording of his voice, he not only looked scary, but his voice was high and nasally.

      In addition to this, people are watching every single step and over analyzing every single word, of some of the candidates, not all, watching for something they can use to say…See! I told you he wasn’t perfect – not ready for the presidency.

      Two weeks ago, 20% of potential GOP voters supported this guy, now they are gone and Newt Gingrich is topping the polls? REALLY? Are we going to do this to ourselves again?

      Admit it. When you think about Herman Cain now, doesn’t at least even the doubt about whether or not he did what the allegations say he did, enter into your mind? And that is all it took. They do it because it works.

      Here’s a little story for you to chew on…

      Last weekend, a group of libertarians and anarchists gathered in the woods of northern New Hampshire for the annual Porcupine Freedom Festival.

      A guy goes up for breakfast.

      Lucky for him, (insert a Libertarian name) has brought along 150 lbs. of bacon, which he’s selling out of a tent to finance his trip to the festival. He does this thing where he weaves 10 pieces of bacon into what he calls “a little blanket,” and cooks the whole thing up.

      The guy tells him that he wants to experience a government-free breakfast, and (insert a Libertarian name) makes his best pitch.

      He tells the guy proudly that, although he makes his living cooking, he has no permit to sell food. He’s never been inspected. And he does not pay taxes.

      “I don’t want them in my business at all,” he says of the government. “If somebody wants to buy my food, it’s between me and them.”

      But of course no government means no official inspection stating that (insert any Libertarian name) washes his hands or that he keeps his bacon cold. As I’m asking about food safety, we are interrupted by another customer, who happens to have a handgun strapped to his belt.

      “We’ll regulate him,” he says. “If he poisons me, I won’t buy his food. And he

That is if you’re not some closet Progressive who wishes to unconstitutionally expand the Powers of the federal Government to fit some personal agenda or other interest. The President has no constitutional Power to make any of your desperate notions come to fruition, as he can ONLY sign laws that CONGRESS has passed, he CAN NOT MAKE LAWS. And CONGRESS HAS NO POWER to decide on these issues. So your argument is moot and irrelevant. This is a State issue. Heck, even California was unable to legalize marijuana through a popular vote. We’re called a federal Union and Constitutional Republic for a dang reason.

    There is only one candidate who has put out a plan to balance the budget within the 4 years of his presidency. He is the only one with a detailed SPENDING CUT centered plan. Everyone else is centered in tinkering with the tax code (although his tax plan is better ) His name is Ron Paul.

    The truth will come to light.

      Hey, don’t you know? You can’t mention him here. He whose name must not be said cannot be talked about because he is threat to the progressive Left and Right. A strict adherence to our federal Constitution is irrelevant in our modern world. We cannot truthfully follow it anymore, as we will not accept working within our means and our own organic Laws. We must continue expanding the Powers of the Executive branch. This guy will leave too many federal bureaucrats out of work and will stop most spending. We must expand and grow our Government at all costs.

      Hey Jim…have you read some of these response above your posts? Some of them have absolutely no idea what he said because I sure didn’t and at least one of them thought that it was an intelligent response..Okay people..forgive me I am laughing too hard to write..Obama helped the Muslim Brotherhood take down strongholds in the Middlle East so that Shria Law could be established . It was reported last week that the muslims who did the uprisings wanted to be paid.. So who do you think might be paying them? Do you think that it might be your tax dollars? I read last night that the Koch brothers who are Cains brothers by another mother are profiting from Iran..Okay people…please try and wrap your head around this. Lady Bird Johnson profited by the Viet Nam War by selling medical supplies to them..Rockafellows sold weapons to the enemies..kind of like Obama and Holder selling weapons to the Hezbolah Drug Cartel in Mexico.. Okay..when they are profitting from the wars…you are paying for them and you are losing your loved ones to pad the pockets of these politicians..Thank you very much.

      More idiotic Saul Alinsky nitwittery from yet another idiot Ron Paulbot. So the Koch brothers are now evil because they are secretly profiting from Iran. Those kind of dimwitted claims were used against Bush because his grandfather actually had the nerve to do business with Germany before WWII. Man, are all Paulbots really this stupid? It is legal and wise to do business with other countries you dimwits. And I seriously doubt that the mostly US based Koch industries lives and dies according to what little relative business they may or may not have done with Iran.

      The fact that you fall for all the retarded conspiracy theories against any conservative candidate that is not Ron Paul says more about you and your fellow dimwitted extremist Paulbots. The fact that you are a primary spreader of such retarded theories is also very telling.

This is why the guy said he‘d have ’advisors’ (AKA CZARS) because he had no real knowledge about anything. I’ve been telling you, Cain’s main business is motivational speeking, after that, he is clueless.
    Of course, now that Cain’s flavor is fading, just as predicted, we all know who the next guy to be propped up will be – the reprehensible Newt the skanky Salamander. New CNN ‘poll’ shows Newt at number 1.
    Don’t fall for it, people! Newt is just as much a snake oil salesman as Obeymao. Newt is CFR, NAFTA, GATT, WTO. He worked with Clinton to get those things passed. He supported Didi Skuzwhatever and when she lost supported the DemocRAT. He is a one global government guy who want to get rid of our Constitution and ‘fundamentally transform’ (Newt’s words, not Obummer’s) America’s government system so he can be in the history books he loves so well as the guy who ushered in the North Amrican Union.

      You‘re right that candidates don’t have access to all the facts. However, a presidential candidate has to exude both knowledge and strength. Much of what happens in the international arena is a matter of perception, a chess game where victories are won by psyching out your opponent. Our enemies are lurking, eager to pounce on us and go for the jugular. When a presidential candidate comes across as an appeaser or a coward (Carter and Obama), the enemy goes into attack mode and we have already lost ground. This time around, the Republican candidate has an unbelievably rough road ahead. He will have to defeat our deadly enemies within, i.e., the Obama machine and their media, as well as send the right message to our deadly enemies abroad.

BO and Hillary attended the Bilderberg meeting in June 2008. After that Hillary’s campaign fade to nothing. Were they told that BO would get the nomination and the presidency? Cain is also a CFR insider. Did they pick him to fail against Obama on purpose knowing he has no debating skills?

No need to be concerned about his ability to lead. His many Czars, sorry, I mean advisers will enlighten him and make sure he makes the right decisions. He has on various occasions mentioned that these (anonymous to us) people appointed by him will help him make the most and best informed decision. I’m glad we can trust on unelected people to ensure our President is in line with the Constitution and his Governmental duty. On the job Training is a great opportunity for one to advance in their career. Look at Obama, he’s doing just great.

      I am not sure why Beck doesn’t support Cain. It looks to me like he initially leaned towards Santorum, and after listening to all the candidates and weighing their plans, he has decided to stay with his original preference. I also think that in his view a governor is not necessarily a career politician. So I don’t see how he is being a hypocrite.

      Personally, I think hes doing it on purpose. He is stepping aside for the next one to rise up. Newt is next, He will fall also. All in time to put mitt in office. Just vote Ron paul save your self the trouble.

      Stop letting hannity and o reily form your opinions.

      Countrygirl, I’m actually looking forward to when Newt gets this treatment. That man is just as bad as Obeyme.

      @COUNTRY…

      Whoever starts rising .. and right now that is Newt …

      btw .. who could forget 57 states (with one more to go) put air in your tires and we will solve the gas “problem” on and on … breathalizer for kids with asthma???

      My God with what Cain has been through in the last weeks .. how could anyone think straight — What‘s Obama’s excuse .. he has been given a pass on EVERYTHING!

      btw .. foreign action questions are hard to answer without the intelligence reports that a President receives.

      He’s still more desirable as president than that cretin obama.

      Cainbashing is all the rage now! Remember what he wants…smaller government, no IRS, complete reform. Yes, just give all that up!

    And you have to remember he was already caught once on saying he would not have a Muslim serve in his cabinet so he was being very cautious on his words, to me that is presidential material believe what you will. When the blaze first started I used to come here first for my information but lately I have to wonder what Glenns true objective is? Come clean on the issue as I watched you for years on CNN and then Fox but something isn‘t sitting right with me and I really can’t put my finger on it. It‘s articles like these that I question as I watch your show but it don’t relate to the articles so are you really still involved with this blog? Or have you just turned it over and don’t really monitor it and what is posted? I truly thought that most of the posts would come from recent GB TV items. Or that you would carry on with the mission that you ended with at Fox, what better way then to keep the people that followed you informed that can’t afford GB TV. It could be a one or two day delay so that it wouldn‘t hurt your viewership most of the articles don’t make sense almost like filler in a newspaper.
