Herman Cain admits sexual harassment charges ... but he doesn't know anything else about them

Herman Cain went straight into the lion's den to deny accusations that he ever sexually harassed anyone—check that—he went on Fox News to face a couple of softballs being lobbed at him:

"It is totally baseless and totally false," Cain said. "Never have I ever committed any kind of sexual harassment."

He added: "If the restaurant association did a settlement, I wasn’t even aware of it and I hope it wasn’t for much. If there was a settlement, it was handled by some of the other officers at the restaurant association."

Uh huh. Sounds perfectly reasonable. In Bizarro World.

And in related news:

The National Restaurant Association declined Monday to confirm or deny POLITICO's story regarding allegations of misconduct against Herman Cain when he headed the trade group.

In a statement from Sue Hensley, the NRA's head of public affairs, the group said of reported inappropriate behavior by Cain: "The incidents in question relate to personnel matters that allegedly took place nearly fifteen years ago."

Make up your mind, NRA. Were they "incidents" or not?

Saturday Satire: Fun With The GOP

  There is just way to much material out there in Internet/TV land to put up all of the jokes and pictures that I would like for you to view.

    I usually do this post on Friday, but my Internet had a “ stupid seizure “ for most of the day. it seems to be doing that a lot as of late.

Conan O'Brien: "In a new interview, Rick Perry said it was a mistake for him to participate in the presidential debates. Perry said 'I'm not one of these 'word talkers.'''

"Michele Bachmann said she wants her three daughters to learn to shoot a gun. Mostly so they can put her campaign out of its misery."

"Michele Bachmann's campaign is in a lot of trouble. Five staffers quit her campaign, claiming it was because she treated them like second-class citizens. However, Bachmann said, 'That's not true. At no time did I treat them like gays or Latinos.'"

David Letterman; "Rick Perry is now behind in the polls and he's not taking it well. Today he executed his pollster."

"Rick Perry, started out like a ball of fire from Texas and then he started to drop and now he's retooling. He's adding advisers to his campaign team. This guy had advisers? Really?"

Jay Leno: "Michele Bachmann told reporters that she will lead the nation in prayer if she is elected president. You know if she is elected president, we all better be praying. She doesn’t have to lead us."

"According to polls, Rick Perry has now fallen to fifth place. You know who is in fourth place? Carrot Top."

"We had President Obama on the show last night. I think the president enjoys visiting NBC because we're the only place that has lower numbers than he does."

"Rick Perry unveiled his new tax plan. He says he wants a flat tax. He believes that tax should be flat, just like the earth."
