Neurosurgeon Ben Carson says the White House wanted him to apologize for “offending” President Obama after he famously delivered a conservative message at the National Prayer Breakfast last year.
Carson, the former director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital, recalls the events surrounding his 2013 speech in his new book, One Nation: What We Can All Do To Save America’s Future. The Daily Caller obtained an advance copy of the book, which is set for release May 20.
“He did not appear to be hostile or angry,” Carson writes of Obama, “but within a matter of minutes after the conclusion of the program, I received a call from some of the prayer breakfast organizers saying that the White House was upset and requesting that I call the president and apologize for offending him. I said that I did not think that he was offended and that I didn’t think that such a call was warranted.”

Well worth repeating
Obama has been the recipient of obeisance all his life. When you think you’re above everyone and everything, the little parts of life normal people either don’t notice or shrug off ends up jammed up the Obamaloon’s ass making him cranky.
I’m still surprised the idiot hasn’t had a full blown meltdown in public. It will be interesting years from now to read the candid opinions and experiences of his current Secret Service staff. That has to be a nasty job. I’m surprised more of them aren’t drinking themselves into unconsciousness.
Thin-skinned punk in the White Hut.
“Dr. Carson seems to be the “real deal”. But I ain’t gettin my hopes up...”
Don’t. Carson is a proponent of gun control.
The King has been offended.
Shame on Dr. Carson.
/S/
IMHO
There is no such thing as a real deal. All people are fallen, and the last and only perfect one died 2000 years ago. People make mistakes, including conservative politicians.
Emperor JugEars is surrounded by boot licking gofers and virtually all of them are white
He probably had his phone out and was playing with it
Obama is such a thin-skinned weasel that when someone dares to criticize him, he will hide it and then unload to his imps, who fly out to attack the offender. He is not a man but a spoiled tattle-tail child.
“If you read the whole article, an interesting picture emerges.
I’m getting more convinced by the day that Barack Obama isn’t bright enough to be offended even by things that any objective person would consider offensive. This is why someone like Ben Carson gets a call from White House long after the event is over — and long after Obama has already shaken his hand and thanked him for his participation — claiming that something about Carson’s comments was “offensive.”
I’ve watched Carson’s speech at the National Prayer Breakfast several times, and if I were Barack Obama I’d consider it one of the most offensive things I’ve ever heard ... not because Carson went out of his way to offend anyone, but because watching that whole thing in the context of Obama’s presidency pretty much confirms that Obama is an incompetent, ill-prepared jack@ss who couldn’t even run a newspaper stand.”
yep, it pretty much made obamacare look real real dumb
Oh, the left will dig up some woman that worked with him in the past that had romantic feelings towards him and get her to claim some sort of harassment like “that’s a nice dress”.
Wanted an apology for ‘offending’ Obama? That’s sooooooo North Korean.
Dear Obamadork,
Shove it up your very personal Obamahole.
When my pooch completes his “duties” outside, I congratulate him for taking a bodacious Obama.
When I refer to something that has been slimed, it’s been “Obama’ed”.
Enough insults, oh great pile of excrement?
You are slime, putrescence, rot, and excrement rolled up into one repulsive lying collection of repulsiveness.
How about this? “I’m sorry Mr. President you’re a D-bag.”
Because psychotropics and antipsychotics, when administered properly, can maintain balance while giving the outward impression that the patient is ‘normal’.
Ever notice there are few public appearances for our new savior that are not planned and announced well in advance? Ever notice that he never starts on time when he appears?
Have a gaze through a Physicians Desk Refrence (PDR) at the effects of those types of meds. Then cross them to observed public behaviors of dear reader.
Illuminating.
For some of the things I utter about the Bamster, I am surprised I am not on speed dial at the white house.
Yea. . .but what about his BAD points!!
See! Ben Carson is a racist! Er... wait a minute. Never mind.
