Herman Cain <3 pokemon

Now this Herman Cain thing is just funny, but i seriously can not believe that this is not scripted!!!! He qouted the pokemon movie!!!!! Fantastic!

What is happening in America? I mean, watching from the sidelines, American politics looks insane! I mean people in the future are gunna have a great time in history class laughing.

On a side note: the Colbert just got the scoop from Jimmie Johnson, that the inspiration for "anyhing with an engine" are 2 motorized bar stools in his house...

Yeah, saw this the other day when Gary tweeted about it... good stuff.

I don't know what's more insane. The fact that he quoted the Pokemon song or the fact that some one knew the song good enough to catch it.

@TooWalrus: That video is awesome.

Whatever, Pokemon 2000 is still awesome.

How is he still relevant. God...

Here's another statement he made:

"I'm gonna use Thunder Shock on that debt and fix the economy. I'm gonna use my Meowth and use it's Pay Day attack to alleviate the financial burden of the unemployed. I'm going to wake up that lazy Snorlax Democratic party with my Pokeflute and clear the path of victory."

Still makes me smile. Also someone did catch it before he admitted it, New York Magazine caught on in August. Or at least that was the first I'd heard of it.

Like a... victory road?

Yeah!

@Axxol: 999 takes new meaning, since attacks in most games top out at 9999. Cain is an avid pokemon Fan. Now my only question is, during roleplay with that lady he assisted financially, was he Ash or pikachu?

I have no idea who this guy is but it sounds like a funny story, can someone sum it up for me?

@RockmanBionics: A republican candidate who dropped out of the race because of sexual harassment claims or something like that.

This is great, I love it!

Life can be a challenge!

He liked being Misty.

It's about time our politicians (does Mr.Cain qualify for that?) paid homage to the franchise that dominated my elementary school life. 
Kudos, Herman.

So, he's the one guy over twelve years old who knows a single fucking thing about "pokemon".

God I love MBMBaM.

@Axxol: The idea of Misty in real life is attractive to me, so you saying that really disturbs me.

@BoG: Its only a matter of time before we get politicians trying to get the Mario vote, because there will be a large segment of the community who had that as their childhood (like you and me).

"Hi, my name is Demo Crat. I am running for (position in office) and i believe that Ash had it right, Children should be taught evolution because if you hold the b button, we can never advance to future. I promise a Nurse joy in every town and a pidgy in every pot... i mean a food in every pot. Gotta catch em all (votes).

You mean to tell me the thought of this guy in a pair of daisy dukes and a shirt that shows off his belly button doesn't turn you on? The he walks up to you and says "hey daddy, come tug on my Togapei".

Okay, I managed to gross myself out.

@Axxol: Hmm.... i would like to hear more......ok i cant risk you going into more detail for a lame joke of me acting turned on. that image you were creating is NSFW no matter how much clothe he is wearing or how blurred out the image is. But there is something i need to know. Does he come to your house with a pizza? you know as a pizza guy dressed as misty in the way you described.

The saddest thing of all is that the scenerio you and i have co authored is actually plausible. If i heard about Cain doing this, i would say "yep, that sounds about right."

I don't want to ruin the party but there is a good chance that was written for him.

Hasn't he done this before? And will Obama's response be, "To quote Digimon: The Movie, 'Tai, I know you're there! Mimi told me you were the one who threw up in my hat!' Thank you, and good night."?

This is why nobody takes your country seriously.

Well now I kinda want to vote for him

@super2j: He also took a govt. tax plan or something like that from the Sims. This is old news dude.

I'm proud that I can say that I was a first hand witness to the single greatest piece of political performance art in history. I refuse to believe that his campaign was anything other than satire.

No one takes our political system seriously. And for good reason. Our army on the other hand....

I remember seeing this quote and reference on The Daily Show or something a few months back. Hilarious.

Hey now! The height of Pokemania was in the late 90s. Those 12-year-olds are now deep into their twenties. I know my Snorlaxes from my Slowpokes, thank you very much.

I like the thought that the best writers in america cant come up with anything better then a quote from a song from a forign kids movie that came out 11 years ago.

I honestly was so thrown by that statement during the show my mouth dropped, just like the cartoons

Going to use charm, or make the opponent sleep or paralyzed with an attack. Order some godfathers pizza. And well....Raise his PP to help defeat his opponent tonight

I like that you think the best writers in America are under Herman Cain's employ.

It's a pity he's dropped out, because I was really hoping for more mis-attribution in regards to that quote.

But don't forget! this man was the GOP's frontrunner not too long ago..

He's not even in the running anymore. Stepped down a few days ago didn't he?

Does anyone realize this guy was just a candidate? He was the CEO of a pizza company before entering the running. He was not a politician before this.

Didn't stop Obama! :D

(Waiting to get link spammed by Obama supporters and how Obama waa senator and such because they don't get the joke, not even sure if I get it O_O)

On topic: He is out of the running. Thank God. I have no idea who I would have voted for if he got nominated.
