I feel like I’m watching The Taming Of The Shrew.
It’s the moon!
No it’s not!
Yes it is!
/ad nauseum
I don’t like Trump bashing. I don’t like Carson bashing. I don’t like Cruz bashing.
Carson has brought a lot to this campaign, as has Trump.
Carson has stood up to Obama in person to his face in a way no other public figure has (at the prayer breakfast).
Carson does not deserve the scorn those here heaped on him in response to leftist media distortion in the manner of liberal-type emotionalism.
It is hysteria at best. Pure irrational emotionalism of the sort that accompanies liberal mindset.
If you actually examine Carson’s statements they in no way differ from Trump’s position on the Iraq war.
What are you objecting to that Carson said?
LOL...well, sort of.
Love that play!
LOL
Well, you only need to watch about 45 seconds to hear
him say it.
Do you think he operated without a general anesthetic?
“OK, I want you to count backwards from 100 while I
tell you about my life. I started out as an angry young boy...”
No one distorted that. It's a direct quote.
Is Dr. Ben Carson friends with Louis Farrakhan? Does Dr. Ben Carson endorse the Nation of Islam?
Who is "bashing" Carson?
He's like Biden....extremely gaffe prone and is NOT presidential timber at all. He may have been an excellent surgeon, but he in no way brought anything of value to the campaign.
How is it "bashing" him, to point out the fact that he is wrong about al-Qaeda, in 2003 and afterwards?
I wonder if he even knows that they bombed the WTC waaaaaaaaay before 9/11; in Clinton's first year as president?
Do you know what existentialist threat means compared to simply threat?
It means a Qaeda was not a threat at that time to the existence of the US.
That is also Trump’s opinion.
No pardons, you never make sense or say coherent or rational things.
In your zeal, you make yourself in to a group think lemming which is the hallmark of the left. It is a function of stupidity and lack of intellectual rigor as well as visceral emotion over rationality and even handed ness.
We do not need that on our side and more calm and reasoned and thoughtful input on your part would be more beneficial in supporting Trump.
As it is you do him more harm than good and that is not a good thing.
Worse...he claims that he has the SAME goals as Al Sharpton!
No and no.
“No one distorted that. It’s a direct quote. “
The headline distorted it.
“But here’s the problem, Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda at that time was not an existential threat to us.”
As far as the quote, do you disagree with it?
Swingin’ at those damn bats, are ya? Good.
I am far from "irrational", a "lefty", and I make far more sense, with more coherent and concise posts than you ever shall, if you are around here, as long as I have been. Tour impugnations and name calling of me, prove that you are the irrational one, without a coherent thought!
Trump never mentions al-Qaeda. He says that he didn't think that we should have gone into Iraq, but al-Qaeda never falls from his lips.
Facts bother you; pity that.
Sometimes, I make a snarky crack to Himself, though he be Shakespeare-impaired.
;D
For himself or the patient?
“You now say you only disagree with the part about al Qaeda not being an existential threat but agree with him about his criticism of Obama’s withdrawal?”
I didn’t say that but I do believe it.
That’s not clear. Try to be coherent.
You agree with Carson about Obama withdrawing troops?
If so, you only are objecting to the part of the statement that al Qaeda and Saddam Hussein were not existential threats.
Which is interesting in that Trump fully agrees with Carson on that.
I don’t give a damn what the headline said. Yes, I disagree with that. It’s idiotic to say that Al Qaeda was not an existential threat.
Carson is a good man.
>:-)
I didn’t say you are a lefty. I don’t think that.
I am saying your intellectual (or lack thereof) approach and ability is the same as the liberal left.
