Cain: I don't need to know the foreign-policy details
CORPUS CHRISTI, TX -- Former businessman turned presidential frontrunner Herman Cain continued his attempts to calm voters concerns over his lack of foreign policy experience during a campaign stop here Wednesday night.
“Relative to foreign policy, I don’t need to know the details of every one of the issues we face.
"We’ve got plenty of experts who can fill in the details,” Cain said at dinner held by the Nueces County Republican Women.
The former Godfather’s Pizza CEO told the 900 supporters in attendance that the key to dealing with issues abroad is to develop a clear foreign-policy philosophy, a line he often has repeated on the trail.

"Don't know much about history
Don't know much foreign policy
Don't know much about a science book
Don't know what an IUD is for... (or much about evolution...)
But I do know about sound bites, talking points,
Government staying out of women's right-to-choose...
But I DO have "Plan 9-9-9 From Outer Space"...
You can't make this stuff up....

One teenie tiny detail was left out. In 2006 Cain was fighting for his life with a 30% chance of survival due to stage 4 colon cancer. I have the same thing and also blew off filing in 2010 because I was needed for much of the filing and was too busy recovering from surgery and agressive chemo. Do you really think he intentionally tried to get away with skipping out on a MASSIVE 8k bill state tax bill? Do you really think in all his years of filing on time that this one time he was going to somehow outsmart the IRS? Get a frigging clue...that's some pretty deep digging compaired to scum like Barney Frank or little Timmy Gietner don't ya think?LadyJazzer wrote:
Cain's Tax Delinquency
Herman Cain, the businessman GOP presidential candidate who’s been surging in the polls with his 9-9-9 tax plan, lapsed in his own tax payments in 2006—then fought paying them.
According to court documents obtained by The Beast, Cain and his wife, Gloria, were served in February 2008 with a tax lien totaling $8,558.46 for unpaid income taxes and penalty due for the 2006 calendar year.
Gordon said Cain had filed with the IRS and won a six-month reprieve in paying his 2006 federal taxes as he was undergoing his treatment for stage four lymphoma and believed that filing should also have bought him time with the state of Georgia. “In Georgia, a taxpayer can submit a copy of his federal extension to request an extension of state income taxes,” Gordon said.
But instead, the state sent a notice of overdue taxes in October 2007, and then proceeded with the tax lien four months later, he said.
Cain’s accountant fought the Georgia Department of Revenue on behalf of his client well into 2008 and the two sides finally settled the matter in November 2008. A court formally withdrew the state tax lien on Dec. 8, 2008, court records show.

Yes, I can see why Herb is so anti-tax. It's so difficult to run for national office when you have tax-liens in your history.
