CAIN'S ATTITUDE.

Herman Cain, a savvy businessman and politician, has made a mess of himself, in regard to the sexual harassment accusations directed against him, while he was the CEO at the National Restaurant Association.

One of his accuser's lawyer has released a statement in which his client was said to be a victim of a "series of inappropriate behaviors and unwanted advances" from Cain.

Throughout the scandal, Cain has made a mockery of his executive and managerial skills by telling his part of the story in so many different ways, which were tantamount to telling falsehoods, if not outright lies.

The media have questioned him in all kinds of interviews, and his response has always been one of nonchalance; although, he was aware that the sexual charges leveled against him were serious, and they would be more so, if his accusers followed up on them.

The media have been enjoying every development of the scandal, and they have been having a field day in that respect, by following Cain wherever he went.

In all those developments, the women complanants have been the first victims of Cain's misconduct; however, the public has become a victim too, since all the trash involving the case or cases, as they might become, has been blasted and dumpped on it (public).

The Republican Party has an ethical role to play in the matter, but it was allowing the candidate, who was running in the party's nomination race for president to move freely and to carry on with his campaign as if nothing was going on. Did not the ethics code of the party apply here?

The party seemed to have turned a blind eye on Cain's indiscretion of how he must treat all Americans with respect and dignity, but he has failed to do so, miserably; and by coming out with the truth, so to put the public's anxiety to rest.

He was being applauded at conservative political meetings; and he has even been rewarded with high poll numbers, probably, to spite the American people; but why?

The same individuals and their party have always maintained that politicians of all parties must be held to a higher standard of behavior or conduct; they must be held accountable for their actions, but under the present circumstances, not a poop has been heard coming out from their midst.

His own rivals in the Republican nomination race have not uttered a single criticism of Cain's approach to a serious crime as sexual harassment, if all the allegations were proved.

Supposing for a moment, if the allegations were made against another person from the Democratic side, the reaction would be quite different, as that person would be attacked ferociously; and if that was not a double standard, then nothing was.

Cain himself must stop parading as a hero, as his victims were still suffering from the disrespect he has shown them. He has turned the whole episode into a circus, much to their chagrin.

He must rather render numerous apologies to them and their families. The public would accept and appreciate it very much, if he decided to take such action. His attitude must change for the better.
