Herman Cain re-remembers amount of hush money paid to employees

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.

Herman Cain a few hours later:

Maybe three months' salary. I don't remember. It might have been
two months. I do remember my general counsel saying we didn't pay all of
the money they demanded.

Herman Cain today:

The financial settlement with the accuser "was in the vicinity of 3
to 6 months' severance pay," he said, adding that the payment was "not
outside our guidelines for what most people get ... when they leave the
Restaurant Association involuntarily."

So in the span of 24 hours:

He knows nothing about a settlement.
Okay, he knows about a settlement, but it was only two to three
months' salary.
Okay, that settlement he didn't know about yesterday, but then
remembered it was only two to three months' salary, was actually three
to six months.

You know, at the current rate of Herman's recollecting, he's about a
week from admitting that okay, yeah, he raped and killed a few girls and
ate their livers with some nice chianti and used their skins to make a
nice winter coat for his wife—who comes up to his chin, you know—and
paid off their families with two or three or six months' pay and a
lifetime supply of pizza to keep it on the down low. But that's it.
Story's over, nothing to see here. Now let's talk about that 9-9-9
plan ...

I suppose it all depends on what the woman was doing. If she was
standing in front of him and he was holding his hand under his chin
saying she was a short as his wife, it may be a slur on short people
but it is not sexist.
If she was kneeling getting something out of a file cabinet and he was
holding his hand at belt buckle height, they might have a case,
particularly if he made the flat head, beer joke.

I doubt there would be a settlement for telling a woman "You're the same
height as my wife." Also keep in mind there are at least two different
women in this particular anecdote.

I was listening to Ann Coulter on CNN last night and she raised a good
point. In the early 90's men had to be worried about women entrapping
them. Companies even mandated "Sexual harassment training" and some do
to this day.

But agree, there is more to it than height. But no criminal
charges...no details....smells of smear.

There's one of your problems right there.
