$45,000.00 was paid out for one lie and $40,000.00 was paid out for the other lie.
If Herman Cain is going to pay out $40,000.00 every time someone lies, then, "I LET HERMAN CAIN BLOW ME". Now, where is my $40,000.00 in cash?
Cain didn't pay off anyone. Those females were given the equivelant of severance packages.
There are leeches everywhere that know how to play the system to get more money. When one is about to be fired, claim discrimination or harassment in order to get more money. Companies are usually going to prefer just settling for small amounts to get rid of the problem person rather than put up a big fight. Doesn't mean anyone was ever guilty, its just the more cost effective way of dealing with it.
If these women were really harassed, why did they settle for nothing more than a regular severance package they would of gotten anyway?
It also doesn't mean someone is automatically innocent.
Sunlight. The best disinfectant.
Despite Cain's instances, this is not going away.
