[Herman Cain]

Worth noting this was the most lenient option suggested.

[loinburger]

I initially didn't say anything for this reason (I'd assumed that it was an off the cuff threat instead of a (semi-)serious one), but he then repeated the threat several times over the course of a month

The Ultimate Dutch Oven Site would have more economic potential, and would be just as topical...
