Generally speaking, when digging oneself into a hole, the first course of action is to stop digging.
I don't think Dr. Carson learned that important point in medical school.

He also recanted, today, what he said yesterday, about seeing Muslims in America celebrating the 9/11 attacks.
He's going to lose more than 5 points this week.

Terri Schiavo was not dying; she was murdered.
Jeb Bush hid under his desk while a citizen of the state of Florida was murdered, with the direct collaboration of police.
Ben Carson is a flake. There are too many moral issues on which he is muddle-headed.

This is one of the primary concerns I have about Dr. Carson.
What happened to Terry Schiavo was state sponsored torture and murder. There was no reason to step in and take Terry away from her parents.
My Wife is also a Doctor. She is not a neurosurgeon, however she is a neurologist. She viewed the tapes and was horrified by what happened. Terry Schiavo showed continuous and purposeful movements. To take away fluids was a sadistic murder of a conscious and vulnerable patient.
This is more than just a stain on Jeb, but a disgusting indictment of Dr. Carson's judgment and professional opinion.
Had to get it out.

Tell me why Ben Carson still has the Christian vote. He doesn’t seem to believe that disabled lives matter.

I’m just speaking my mind here.
Wasn’t it up to the family? On Terri’s express wish not wanting to live if she became a vegetable? Would you wanna live like that?
A guy I’ve been best friends with for about 15 years was paralyzed by botulism for 6 months. When he recovered he told me he could hear everything, but he couldn’t move, couldn’t speak, couldn’t even open his eyes. He was trapped within his own mind not even able to tell the doctors he was in pain, or able to press his morphine drip.
He said it was excruciating, dark, impossible to even imagine, and I think it really effected him more than most would notice.
Brain death is a step further. You are gone. A shell, whatever part of you that made you you has been stripped away and you have the intelligence of a small rodent. Personally I would say you are no longer human at that point, without a mind you’re just a body. Now no one knows that for sure, but even if your mind and personality exist, you’re trapped, and it’s a living hell.
I don’t personally know what I would want in that situation, but I imagine I’d want to die.

“This is more than just a stain on Jeb”
Schiavo’s brother in question here has said only nice things about Jeb.
To: markomalley
Terri wasn’t on life support nor brain dead but severly brain impaired. They tortured her to death with dehydration/starvation. Extremely cruel and many will pay for what they did to her. I dont blame Jeb for her death but blame him for lack of guts to save her when he was the last hope but he caved in to the swamp judge’s edict. Had he ignored it and gotten her out of there he would have been a conservative hero instead of a zero.

I disagree. He was a coward.

I agree with you. I have had concerns about Carson’s judgement, and good judgement is what we really need in our president.

Terri never became a *vegetable.* Yeah, that would be philosophically and scientifically impossible.

p>Nope. Carson is a nice enough guy, and he knows what he thinks and doesn't think, but he has no discernible point of view. He could turn out to be Obama II, without the rancor and with a nice smile.
No thanks.
To: FreedomStar3028
The whole point is, it doesn't matter what you would like. You were not the one being dehydrated and starved to death.
To: Slyfox
Yeah, that would be philosophically and scientifically impossible. Yeah, slowly starving suffering people to death by court order is hysterical, let's make juvenile jokes about it.

Do you think I was making a joke? Because I was not doing that.
