Graham: Carson ‘Questioning People Who Lost Their Lives,’ ‘Glad’ Obama ‘Went to See These People’
Breitbart ^ | 7 Oct 2015 | Pam Key

Posted on 10/07/2015 9:22:25 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Wednesday on CNN’s “New Day,” in reacting to his rival Dr. Ben Carson’s controversial comments about the Oregon shooting, Republican presidential candidate Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) expressed his skepticism in questioning the wisdom of people who have lost their lives.

Carson said yesterday on Fox News, “Not only would I probably not cooperate with him, I would not just stand there and let him shoot me. I would say hey guys everybody attack him, he may shoot me approximate but he can’t get us all.”

I don’t know if there’s room in a single political party for me and Lindsey “Benedict Arnold” Grahamnesty. Someone had better go.

Ever see what a flock of barnyard geese can do to a rat they corner?

Now people think of geese as being meek and a little stupid, but they are neither. Most of the time, they are rather benign creatures, to be sure, but meek, never. And they can recognize, in a rat, a very vicious and dangerous adversary.

Those flailing, powerful wings can strike with enough force to break an adult human’s arm, and the peck of that bill can take out an eye, or gouge a terrible hole just about any soft place in the anatomy. The rat just does not stand a chance.

Wait, Lindsey Graham is still running for President..geez I thought he dropped out weeks ago..so I guess Linda Graham doesn’t think the Flight 93 passengers who took down the plane before it could hit the White House were brave since they just didnt stand there and take it..Carson is absolutely right, when you have someone pointing a gun at you, you try to bring em down, not just stand there like a sitting duck

I’d say logical true answers and comments like these from Carson explain why his numbers are good and rising.

Now, Listen. Lindsay Graham is an important man in the Republican Party and his views carry a lot of weight. He brings all of 1 percent support with him and a seat at the kid’s debate table.

You know since Linda got her hair cut she almost looks like a man, until she speaks.

Why is what Carson said controversial?

Because leftists don't like it.

Your problem, FRiend, is that you speak English. Leftists barf up NewSpeak.

In NewSpeak, "controversial" means "anything leftists dislike".

Lindsey is a Liberal Democrat who ran for Senate as a Conservative Republican.

He is one, but everybody knows not really.

So I just heard about this, Herman Cain, er I mean Ben Carson says if it was him with a gun to his head, he'd try to fight back rather than say "Christian" and get executed.

Gun control freaks say this is the worst thing anyone (including Trump and Hitler) has ever said and I guess Lindsey Graham agrees with them?

Cause saying "I'd fight back" = attacking the victims for not doing so? That must sorta make sense if you happen to be high on crack or ODing on AIDS meds like Lindsey.

BTW, if I get shot it'll be in the back cause my a$$ is gonna be running!

To answer your question, I read someplace awhile back that linda’s place in the campaign was to be a stalking horse for Yebbie. Don’t know if that’s still the case.

RE Gun to the Head:

Better to die trying to live than live a few seconds longer only to be murdered.
