Herman Cain believes OWS protesters are simply jealous of the wealthy.
That old chestnut...we're fucking JEALOUS. People like Cain are so fucking out of touch with what is happening in this country, he shouldn't be elected as dog catcher. He is disgraceful.

3. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
He is correct:

We're jealous that others have jobs.

We're jealous that others have homes.

We're jealous that others have futures.

We're jealous that others have medical care.

And we're pissed that the Wall Street casino aren't prosecuted.

4. My take on that is - of course, why not?
Edited on Mon Oct-10-11 08:17 AM by treestar
They are trying to make it personal there and embarrass a person into accepting their dominance.

Too bad for them. :nopity: How much is it to ask of them that they suffer knowing others are "jealous?"

5. Greed is jealousy on steroids.
When someone wants to have it all when they have more than enough, they are only jealous of others.

6. just high lighting that he is completely out of touch with reality.
sort of gives a real peak into the mind of the 1%.

they have zero in common with the workers and have absolutely nothing in common.

just another example of the rights inability to empathize.

"we aren't the problem, they are!" shouts the deluded 1%.

7. ? Starting to wonder if Cain is sly like a fox? Comments on him appear consistent:
"Clueless" "Idiot" "Douchebag" ...and many more. He makes President Obama look like a brilliant radical lefty. Hmmmm, so do you think Cain actually believes the shit he's spouting?

8. He's playing for the tea party
And frankly, he's working on the country clubbers who are backing Mittens right now. If he proves that he can be a good shill for them with the OWS protests, then maybe they'll regard him as a truly useful idiot if he can wrest the nomination away from Romney and Perry.
