Chicago Journalist Bill Kurtis: "Bialek has a history"

The pushback has begun in earnest.

Those on the right who’ve previously joined the left in what it is clear is a politically motivated attack on Cain have an opportunity here to finally do the right thing and start pressuring this story.

If it’s true, and Cain is a serial harasser, we need to know that. But if he’s not — and this has been yet another attempt to destroy a popular outsider candidate — we should know that, too.

— None of which commits you to voting for Herman Cain, I’ll add. Not that I should have to add such a caveat. And yet —

****
update: Was a pipe dream, I guess. Karl Rove: Allred lends Bialek story credibility.

Either Rove or I need to leave the GOP.

    Check this out:

    In the courts, Ms. Bialek has had a lengthy record in the Cook County Court system over various civil lawsuits. The following cases on file in Cook County are:

    · 2000-M1-707461 Defendant against Broadcare Management

    · 2000-M1-714398 Defendant in lawsuit against Broadcare Management

    · 2000-M1-701522 Defendant in lawsuit against Broadcare Management

    · 2005-M1-111072 Defendant in lawsuit against Mr. Mark Beatovic.

    · 2007-M1-189176 Defendant in lawsuit against Midland Funding.

    · 2009-M1-158826 Defendant in lawsuit against Illinois Lending.

    Ms. Bialek was also sued in 1999 over a paternity matter according to ABC 7 Chicago (WLS-TV). Source: WLS-TV, November 7, 2011

    In personal finances, PACER (Federal Court) records show that Ms. Bialek has filed for bankruptcy in the Northern District of Illinois bankruptcy court in 1991 and 2001. The respective case numbers according to the PACER system are 1:01-bk-22664 and 1:91-bk-23273.

    Looks like she’s a professional pain in the anatomy.

    This record of serial lawsuits, plus her comment that she didn’t do anything about Cain’s advances because she wasn’t his employee (and couldn’t sue), plus the fact that she appeared willingly on the same stage as Gloria Allred spells Liar Liar Pants on Fire.

  2. dicentra says:

    So this gives Ms. Bialek’s charges and accusations a little bit of credibility, and that’s what we’re talking about here — credibility.”

    WTF!?!?!

    Whatever he’s been smoking, keep it AWAY from me!

  3. DarthLevin says:

    Karl Rove *spit* would say anything to keep himself relevant to the cucumber sandwich crowd, even things that should make his tongue jump out of his head.

    To echo another great American, I didn’t leave the GOP. The GOP left me.

    Fox News whores don’t add value

  5. sdferr says:

    Bill Kurtis is a sort of hometown hero, the best known son, so to speak, of Independence, Kansas. He’s got an honored place in the town museum. That small a town. My dad’s hometown.

  6. DarthLevin says:

    And I’m all for finding out if Cain has some personality flaws that would make him a bad choice for the Oval Office. All I ask is that the MSM treat Candidate Obama the same. Or Candidate Hillary if she tosses her revolutionary beret into the ring. Not that it’ll happen.

  7. dicentra says:

    The thick plottens:

    Meanwhile, a friend of Ms Bialek, from Chicago, told the New York Post: ‘She has a very infectious personality. It’s easy to see how she won [Cain] over. But the reality of her situation is — she’s a complete gold digger. It’s all about the money.’

    Adding that she was from a middle-income family but lives in a posh house while running from bill collectors, the source said: ‘Most of her jobs ended in termination. It’s always the employer’s fault, not hers.

    ‘This is a lady who lives off the system. She is hellbent on finding a way of never having to work and living the lifestyle she wants to live, a very affluent lifestyle.’

    Details of a number of legal and financial difficulties have since emerged, with the Chicago Tribune listing a long history with tax evasion and late or missed credit card payments.

    The paper reported that Ms Bialek has filed for personal bankruptcy twice, first in 1991 and then again in 2001.
    In 2001, she claimed $5,700 in assets and more than $36,000 in liabilities. Among the creditors seeking payment was a management firm demanding back rent of $4,500, four credit card companies and a lawyer asking for his legal fees.

    I take it back: compared to this wench, Gloria Allred is credible.

    “Either Rove or I need to leave the GOP.”

    Rove.

  9. Joe says:

    Rove is dead to me.

  10. happyfeet says:

    $5,700 in assets?

    she’s not even a respectable whore

  11. Joe says:

    I thought the Fitzpatrick witchhunt was a disgrace. But now I wish he had nailed Rove instead of Libby.

  12. sdferr says:

    I dunno LTC, it’s becoming too clear that the organization is so run through with endemic corruption, we can’t help but think of starting anew. In a sense, it’s simply more efficient to leave it to rot.

  13. keninnorcal says:

    Not sure I can handle all of this sober. So I think I’ll kick back and celebrate Leif Garrett’s eligibility for AARP. Cheers.

  14. DarthLevin says:

    Looks like Rep. Issa is looking into ACORN’s involvement in #OWS. Wonder how long it will be before Bialek remembers that Issa grabbed her nethers at Times Square on New Year’s Eve 2001?

  15. Joe says:

    Dan Riehl said this today:

    “there is a bigger issue going on here”

    Yes, there is. There are facts on the record regarding Herman Cain, just as above. The media has them. They will come out and be bigger news before or after he wins any potential nomination. I want them out now, not then. THAT is what is going on here. Period. End of story.

    Posted by: Dan Riehl | Tuesday, November 08, 2011 at 12:13 PM

    My response:

    You are right Dan, there are bigger issues going on. http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/courts-law/ag-operation-fast-and-furious-flawed-in-concept-and-execution-never-should-have-happened/2011/11/08/gIQA8xnyzM_story.html?hpid=z3 Too bad we are not discussing them.

    We are so fucked.

    I am really feeling the need for bloody marys in the morning. Just sayin.

  16. Physics Geek says:

    Karl Rove: Allred lends Bialek story credibility.

    Rove is punking us, right? There’s no way that he could have said that. Wait, did I go all Rip van Winkle until April 1?

  17. McGehee says:

    Turd Blossom blooms again.

  18. Squid says:

    Without the media stoking the fire from last week’s Politico hit piece, not even Allred would have given this woman the time of day. The talking heads desperately want to push this as a “pattern of behavior,” but the only pattern of behavior I’m seeing is that of a media/political machine desperate to take down a leading candidate By Any Means Necessary.

    I hope he fights. I hope he wins.

  19. Ernst Schreiber says:

    We should just go ahead and acclaim Mitt Romney our nominee. Sure, he won’t inspire anybody. But he won’t demoralize our side (that is to say he won’t demoralize it anymore than it already is), so he’s got that going for him. And besides this politicking and gubernancing thing is probably best left to perfessionalz.

  20. LBascom says:

    Squid, the pattern thing is key to those ready to give Cain the full Palin treatment.

    The pattern I see is, 3 out of 4 times the woman doesn’t want to talk about it. They don’t want to say who they are or what happened.

    Yet Rove and his band demand Cain prove his innocence. ‘Cuz of the pattern.

  21. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Rush was just saying that there’s now a 5th woman.

    Seems Cain wanted to ask a woman out to dinner after some speech. When the female organizer/coordinator/whatever the hell she was, declined to put Cain in touch with the first woman, Cain took her and her friends to dinner instead. At dinner, he behaved himself as you would expect him too.

    But clearly the man had an ulterior motive. You know how those people are.

  22. sdferr says:

    . . . to take down a leading candidate By Any Means Necessary.

    And while we have to think about a possible sexual tryst, even that — taking down a leading candidate — is actually secondary to the genuine threat on the horizon, namely, returning the government to its intended purposes. I, for one, only view Cain favorably to the extent that I believe he represents a concurrence with my own understanding of the ends and proper means of politics in the United States. The one thing necessary. The easiest thing to induce people to forget.

  23. geoffb says:

    The 5th woman. This time it’s pathetic.

  24. sdferr says:

    . . . said Donella, an independent who said she voted for President Obama in 2008 and probably will again next year. “He’s not a person I would want running the country.”

    At least this one is honest as to her motivations.

  25. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Thanks for finding the llink geoff. I think this is the best one yet because it explains the whole thing.

    Herman Cain is a dandy who enjoys (and enjoys being seen in) the company of women. He likes to flirt.

    Clearly. The man isn’t ready to be President.

  26. sdferr says:

    “T. A. Frank”, says Limbaugh, on the upcoming hit piece? Is that the “What’s the Matter With Kansas?” Frank?

  27. LBascom says:

    I did not pass the butter to that woman, Mz. whatshername…

  28. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Or maybe he asked for the hot buttered buns!

  29. leigh says:

    Clearly Herman Cain is a Babe Magnet.

  30. LBascom says:

    I am concerned Cain stiffed them for the wine if he asked for the dinner. Sounds like a cheapskate. Do we really want a cheapskate as president?

    Wait…

  31. geoffb says:

    The way it reads the women were from the Gov. agency that hired him to go to Egypt and give the speech and they then suggested that they all go to dinner. It’s 2002. The people who hired you to give a speech want to take you to dinner and then want you to pay for it? And you don’t? Horrors.

  32. Ernst Schreiber says:

    I guess they could have apologetically asked him to not order the $400 wine, pleading budget constraints.

  33. geoffb says:

    We only have her word that he, or anyone did that. Sounds so “Let’s get Paul Ryan”ish.

  34. Stephanie says:

    Oops.

    Gold digger what lies about digging gold?

  35. mojo says:

    Well, gee – glad to see that the presumption of innocence is alive and well in the US of A.

    Just not in the MSM, looks like.
