2012 Herman Cain's Wife Did Not Know Herman Cain Was "Friends" with Ginger White

Posted by on Thu, Dec 1, 2011 at 3:31 PM

Herman Cain says that he wasn't having sex with Ginger White, but he was helping her out financially. And now he admits that his wife knows nothing about his friendship with Ms. White.

Referring to Ms. White, Mr. Cain said his wife, Gloria, “did not know that we were friends until she came out with this story.”

Mr. Cain told The Union Leader that Ms. White had sent him about 70 text messages over a nearly monthlong period recently asking for money because she was out of work and had trouble paying her bills.

“She wasn’t the only friend who I had helped in these tough economic times, and so her messages to me were relating to ‘need money for rent’ or whatever the case may be,” he told The Union Leader. “I don’t remember all the specifics.”

Sure, sure. Because lots of married men give money to female friends their wives know nothing about. That's perfectly normal!

UPDATE: In other Herman-Cain's-pants-related news, Wonkette just posted this amazing pro-Cain ad that uses Science! to disprove the allegations of sexual harassment:

Usually when wealthy men give money to women their wives know nothing about, these women are called hookers.

Since the hooker ads are gone, there sure are a lot of Craigslists ads from women who "need help with the rent".

Ok, let's not jump to any conclusions.

I regularly give money to almost a dozen female friends, and aside from the blow jobs, orgies, and occasional game of "Lingerie Prison Break", it's all platonic.

Someone needs to edit this to put the slimy Cain smile at the end of it.

I won't be convinced of his innocence until Cain submits himself to a phrenological exam live on television. The lumps don't lie!

"LIE DETECTOR" TESTS ARE NOT REAL SCIENCE! Once again, I decry the Maury Povitchification of America. Sigh.

“She wasn’t the only friend who I had helped in these tough economic times..."

So, how many men do you send money to, Mr. Cain?

Jesus, slow down and shell out the extra 20,000 for a 45 second spot.
