Cain's endorsement

Although dear Herman's initial endorsement of 'the people' for president of the United States was laughable and silly (we would expect no less from ye, President Cain), he's decided that a trifle more convention in this case may be called for, and has endorsed Newt Gingrich instead.

Cain released the following, metaphor-mixing, er...statement: "I hereby officially and enthusiastically endorse Newt Gingrich for president of the United States," it read. "Speaker Gingrich is a patriot. Speaker Gingrich is not afraid of bold ideas. And I also know that Speaker Gingrich is running for president and going through this sausage-grinder—I know what this sausage-grinder is all about. I know he is going through this sausage-grinder because he cares about the future of the United States of America."

God save us.
