Remember folks, Ben Carson is a brain surgeon!

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
This guy really is the absent minded professor!
ReplyDeleteAt least he's not a fat drunk who preys on women and he actually made something out of his life
ReplyDeleteSounded like the lady host attempted to announce his name over the applause. He couldn't hear her. I like that Clinton Foundation donor and former administration guy, Snuffleuphogus, is considered a journalist.
ReplyDeleteABC messing up has no reflection on who is the most qualified to become President
ReplyDeleteI missed the first half-hour of the debate, but this production wasn't all that bad. These things are better when the total number of candidates on stage is smaller. With this logic, the Democratic debate productions should be outstanding, but they are not.
ReplyDeleteThose events have too many softball questions, and very few challenges to answers.
Rubio definitely hurt his image in N.H. Kasich boosted his by presenting a much "softer" option for those who tend to find comfort in always choosing M size, rather than S or L.

Republican's are inept by nature. This was no surprise and they are exposed for all to see. Rubio is done! Christie skewered him and deservedly so. A pox on all their houses. Vote Democrat!
ReplyDeleteRubio is far from done as Christy simply showed his bully side. Rubio's point about Obama went over Cristy's head so it had to be made over & over. Rubio is biggest threat to Hillary as he is fresh & eloquent.
ReplyDeleteRubi would be alaughtered by Hillary Clinton. It would be like a professor debating a freshman. Rubio is like a child - voters will never believe he has the balls to be Commander In Chief. Everyone knows Hillary has balls.
ReplyDeleteWhat a disaster as usual for the Repubs. Another lost election. If they knew what was good for them, they'd vote Kasich. They should have nominated Huntsman in the last election too. Oh well. They'll never get it. America doesn't want hard line right wingers.
"At least he's not a fat drunk who preys on women and he actually made something out of his life"
ReplyDeleteThat's no way to talk about Chris Christie! Looks like Mezzacrappa supports Carson.
The look that Bush gave on his way by Trump and Carson was priceless. Not that he isn't getting a heck of a lot of those same looks himself...
ReplyDelete@9:23AM My thought as well - Kasich is the best choice, but they won't vote for him. I guess it is too sane and obvious.
So MezzaCrappedHerPants is still here? Amazing. Must be looking at the weather, and wishing she still had the RAV4. Well, as she would say, read em and weep.
ReplyDeleteCarson's spent too much time saving babies with profound health issues. He's not good at the politician stuff. Presidential? Not really. Refreshing? Yes, actually.
ReplyDeleteHey, which presidential candidate is currently under federal investigation? I think it's the same one who gets paid $250K per speech to Goldman Sachs.
Kasich is both experienced and sane. That is not what the teabaggers want in a candidate.

ReplyDeleteAGREED, WALKING OUT ON STAGE WHEN YOUR NAME IS CALLED IS NOT SOMEHTING HE SHOULD BE WELL VERSED IN.
"AGREED, WALKING OUT ON STAGE WHEN YOUR NAME IS CALLED IS NOT SOMEHTING HE SHOULD BE WELL VERSED IN."
ReplyDeleteHis name was difficult to hear when it was called during raucous applause for the previous candidate. Perhaps Martha Radditz should have spoken in all caps. But ...... #allcapsbetraysasmallweenie
It's not like Carson referred to Marines as "corpse men." Only an uninformed poseur would do that.
ReplyDeleteIt's not like Carson calls Denmark's largest city Copen-"haagen, like an idiot who thinks it's pronounced like a popular ice cream brand. Only an unsophisticated pretender would be so stupid.
ReplyDeleteIt was once an insult when someone said, "You are no brain surgeon".
ReplyDeleteAfter watching this clown in action, when people say that to me from now on, I will just say thanks!
Carson was waiting for the clown car to give him a ride out there. What a goof!
