"LISTEN, KID! I've been hearing that crap ever since I was at UCLA. I'm out there busting my buns every night! Tell your old man to drag Walton and Lanier up and down the court for 48 minutes!

Much of the left has always hated men like Ben Carson, but now that he has the lead in the Real Clear Politics polling average (as of this writing) for the republican presidential nomination, their desire to tear him down has intensified. With a recent column in Time magazine entitled Ben Carson is Terrible for Black Americans, NBA legend Kareem Abdul-Jabbar decided to weigh in.
Sounding like a bad Elaine Benes date, Abdul-Jabbar begins his piece by asking and answering his own question—twice. He concludes that a Carson presidency would “be an unmitigated disaster.†I suppose that with record numbers of Americans on welfare, record numbers of Americans not working, accumulating more federal debt than every other U.S. president combined, a perverse redefinition of marriage, granting a “God bless you†to killers of children in the womb, promoting a culture of lawlessness, inspiring hostility toward U.S. law enforcement, encouraging the invasion through our southern border, and on top of all of that, ruining school lunches for millions of American children, for Mr. Abdul-Jabbar, the last seven years constitutes something other than an “unmitigated disaster.â€

Do they mean Lew Alcindor?
Yeah, sadly if “Lew Alcindor” is used, few will know is being discussed.
Boycott Time-Lies-Warner-Turner
Defund the Left
I’m surprised (I think) that they continue to give Jabbar space. Pretty weak stuff.
There isn’t much space to give. Time is about as thick as an old Weekly Reader these days.
Lew Alcindor.... Bill Cosby ..... Jesse Jackson.... Al Sharpton.... Farrakhan...Obama....all “wise” negroes”...”wise mulatto”..
that is why the black unemployment and imprisonment rate is skyrocketing... because of their continued irrational free stuff and failed racist policies and support of same...for over 50 years
If obama has proved anything it is a racist commie muslim is no good for the ussa
yep
who know if carson would be a good president or not...
could he be any WORSE than Hillary Clinton... NOT SUITABLE OR TRUSTWORTHY TO HOLD PUBLIC OFFICE..
Ha! So true!
The (misnamed) “progressive” and the traditional American live in parallel universes, with two exact opposite definitions of virtue. The fierce attacks upon Dr. Carson show this...Carson seeks to use his personal story of redemption, his Christian faith and personal victory to inspire. He sees virtue as honesty, truthfulness, hard work and primary faith in Christ. This definition of virtue is a threat to the “progressive”, so the good doctor MUST be discredited anyway possible, including innuendo and lies. He is anything but a “safe negro” (per MSNBC) to the left.
To the (misnamed) “progressive” “virtue” is not any kind of personal behavior...but virtue is ideology: environmentalism, pro-gay “marriage” (and the new BIG thing transgenderism), a socialist political and economic model and primary to them, pro-abortion. You can lie about your helicopter being under fire, a video causing a terrorist attack, keeping you doctor and plan, etc. All required is you maintain the “virtue” of the PeeCee ideology... you will protected by the same media that seeks to destroy conservatives, by attacking their virtue. Such is the challenge of our times. Go Dr. Ben!!!
Ben Carson bad, B. Hussein Obama good! Beyond mental therapy, institutionalize.
I went to the Apache County Fair (Arizona) and there was one political booth or table there and it was for Ben Carson. As it turned out, some people of Apache County had dowloaded certain items from his website and had put together this booth entirely on their own, completely paid for by themselves, and probably was unknown to Mr. Carson. There is a reason for this.
Ben Carson is real. He touches the hearts of many of us and is a good Christian Man. That is why the left must tear him down.
In all fairness, I have not sent him a contribution. I have contributed three times this year to Ted Cruz and even sent Carly fifty bucks but we could do a lot worse than have Mr. Carson as our Chief Executive.
What is a Jabar?
Yep
What's wrong with a Muslim in the cockpit, kid!
A hair straightening product.
Hip Check Lew.
Loved that scene!
