Some one told me he has a paid theme song that is sort of Shaft-esque. Has anyone heard this or know where it’s at, or does my friend need to stop watching Frontline stoned.

I actually like Cain. I like people who view business as something you create, grow, and nurture. I think he’s quite right that the difference between him and Romney is that Romney is a ‘Wall Street CEO’….

…and it’s just almost possible that he DOES understand that being pro-business and pro-corporation are so far from being the same thing they’re almost opposites.

What I want to know is, what’s he in this for? Is he trying for a VP spot? Is he going to turn Paul/Perot at the last moment and be in the race to shift it towards a worthy goal? What’s the angle?

BTW, when asked for people he admired, he named JOHN BOLTON and HENRY KISSINGER.

His voice is so bad he reminds me of Bill Murray doing his lounge lizard act on Saturday Night Live. All Herman needs is a crushed velour jacket.

I am permanently scarred after listening to that. And I thought Giuliani overdid 9/11.

All he is saying, is give his slice a chance.

Thanks for the lyrics. Herman Cain won’t sing for me.

Those are some pretty gangsters’ molls.

Here are the lyrics:

Imagine there’s no pizza
I couldn’t if I tried
Eating only tacos
Or Kentucky Fried
Imagine only burgers
It’s frightening and sad

You’re lucky you have pizza
To feed for kids for you
Only frosting or cookies
And no dishes you must do
Imagine eating pizza
Each and every day

You may say that it’s junk food
But to me it’s so much more
It gives my life its meaning
And it makes a lot of dough

Imagine mozzarella
Anchovies on the side
And maybe, pepperoni
Rounds out your pizza pie
Imagine getting pizza
Delivered to your door

You don’t have to give up now
On my skateboard I will go
I’ll be back in 30 minutes
I just bought Dominoes

All I am saying
Is give pizza a chance
All I am saying
Give pizza a chance!
All I am saying
Is give pizza a chance

Well if nobody else is gonna come forward and say they just threw up a little in their mouths hearing that, I guess I’ll have to be the first.

I just threw up in my mouth a little bit from hearing that.

Agreed. I think a Cain nomination would be….hilarious. Maybe not always intentionally so.

It’s nice to see a politician with a sense of humor.

I think it was Hemingway who said to F. Scott, “Those singing Republicans, they’re different from you and me.”

Is he sure he wants to admit knowing who John Lennon was? Imagine what his supporters will say!

Somehow an American president that made a fortune making shit pizza is… oddly appropriate.
See, it’s like a whole bunch of different toppings (people) thrown togeather that should make a delicious end product but really just sucks.

Apparently he can’t imagine a world without religion, war, and so on.

Apply the Wadsworth Constant. Better yet, skip it entirely.

I imagined no pizza the few times I ate at our Godfather’s, which eventually closed.

His Lennon tribute was far more tasteful than his 9/11 tribute.

I think we know where he got the 9-9-9 plan from – get a pizza for $9.99! I’d like a singing president, so I think I’ll vote for this guy!!!!!

A world without pizza is a world I don’t want to live in.

I’m glad to see Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim are running his campaign.

Pizza: the one thing wingnuts like Cain and the OWS protestors can agree upon!
