If Herman Cain was indeed guilty, why won't any of these so-called victims provide black and white proof?
IE a police report or complaint to the NRA board or a video tape
Would this not put and end to the endless allegations or would this not get him out of the race for good (if he is indeed guilty as alledged)?

2 AnswersOther - Society & Culture1 decade agoDo the U.S. tax rates apply to everyone but the President?
Is President Barack Obama willing to practice what he preaches when it comes to taxes? He is exposing the lack of importance his own agenda really carries — even in his own household.
In the 2008 campaign, then-Senator Obama repeatedly scoffed at the tax rates for the majority of the small business class of our country. He repeatedly chided those in the tax bracket that included the highest number of small business owners. He declared that these folks would need to do “more” and suggested that everybody should, “do their share.”
He also promised that if he were elected president he would increase tax rates for those making over $250,000 per year, that he would force those in that tax bracket to do more, and that it would be the true measure of patriotism for this group of Americans to pay more in taxes.
He spoke in glowing terms about returning the tax rates in his administration to the levels of the Clinton-era, and challenged those earning above $250,000 a year to embrace their responsibility to pay 39% in federal income taxes (not the rate at the time, which was then 35% under President George W. Bush.)
And then we saw his tax return.
In 2010 the Obama household–after every loophole, donation, and tax exempt charitable donation had been deducted –recorded earnings of $1,700,000 and change. To repeat, this wasn’t gross earnings, this was adjusted earnings. This is the amount that he the president had a responsibility to pay taxes on.
From reports concerning the president’s tax returns, however, it looks like he paid roughly $454,000 and change in federal taxes. Sounds like a lot doesn’t it?
But on taxable income of $1,700,000 that only works out to be just a tad more than 26 percent. Whoa! Wait a minute… The president–who had a taxable income of $1,700,000–paid how much?
Had President Obama voluntarily paid his taxes at the rate he believes everyone else in his income bracket ought to pay (39%) in federal taxes, he SHOULD have paid $663,000.
But wait there’s more… To put the cherry on top of the sundae, President Obama even received a tax refund back from the government of $12,000.
10 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoIf you have an attorney who is not doing what they were paid to do where do you turn?
He is not guilty of misconduct or malfeasance --- he has however been paid in early January 2011 to perform a legal service and it still has not been done-- all you get is lip service and promises. Do you take this to the state bar or where?
4 AnswersLaw & Ethics1 decade agoFor GA Residents please - Stiffed by a licensed attorney. Paid but services not done. What is our recourse?
We have paid him 1200.00 and have the receipts. He was paid in full back in January 2011 to perform legal services. To date, he still has not done anything on the case. When I call, he always offers lip service and apologies, but he has not done anything to resolve the case. We live in Georgia. What state agency can we turn to to remedy this or get our money back?
1 AnswerLaw & Ethics1 decade agoI thought we had gotten past this race thing in the U.S., so, why are there all these "race" questions in Y/A?
IE Affirmative Action, EEO, EOT, Civil Rights Act of 1964 etc...........and by the way, we live in an Atlanta suburb where people of all races and colors live together. The common denominator here is education, not race.

3 AnswersOther - Politics & Government1 decade agoSo, is this the bottom line on health care?
Let me get this straight --
we're going to pass a health care plan written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it. It was passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it. It will be signed by a smoking president who also hasn't read it. Funding will be administered by a Treasury Secretary who didn't pay his own taxes. Finally, it will be overseen by an obese Surgeon General, financed by a country that's nearly bankrupt.
What could possibly go wrong?
