In case the link was buried and lost in previous threads, this is the Youtube video Here of Dr. Benjamin Carson's talk this morning at the congressional prayer breakfast in which he virtually destroys much of what Obama stands for, from political correctness to punishing the rich and successful to Obamacare - while Obama has to sit there and listen to the whole presentation - and the libs can't even demonize the good doctor as being racist.....
No wonder Obama wants everyone to believe that what's said at prayer breakfasts is always forgotten before the day is done.........
Dr. Carson spoke at my College one year. I forgot exactly when but it was while ObamaCare was being discussed but not introduced into legislation yet, IIRC.
It was hilarious to look at many of the faculty and students faces as he discussed why Socialized medicine will fail. The first few Q&A question were from students and faculty disagreeing with him on ObamaCare. After he politely humiliated a few those questions stopped.
It reminds me of part of a speech that Mother Teresa gave at the prayer breakfast in 1994 when Clinton was president.
Here are her words, with a link to the whole prayer:
"Any country that accepts abortion is not teaching its people to love, but to use any violence to get what they want. This is why the greatest destroyer of love and peace is abortion. "It sounded like the whole audience cheered and clapped when she said those words.
As the CSPAN camera panned over to the Clintons, they had the most disgusting looks on their faces as they so hated to hear those words.
Thank you for that reminder, SE Mom. Yes, Michelle... all THAT for a flag!
Oddly, Michelle (seated on the dias, to The One's right) applauded often during Dr. Carson's speech, and gave him a standing ovation at the end. Kind of perplexing to me...
Wow... thanks so much for that reminder, Syncro!
I agree with your comments 100%. 0dumb0 is a class-A, number 1 JERK, and it is revealed in one episode after another. If a Repub ever acted the way that 0dumb0 does, the media would be howling in derision & feigned outrage. And yet 0dumb0 gets away with it. Even Moooochelle at least responded some & applauded (first time I have complimented her on anything!).

Here are some comments I sent out to some other folks as I sent out the youtube video........
Normally Barack Obama skips these altogether (because in reality he doesn't believe in Christianity and is more than likely a muslim), but because the key note speaker was a prominent black American, Dr Benjamin Carson, John Hopkins Hospital, Pediatric Neurosurgery Division Director, I assume that Barack Obama felt he had to condescend and attend the breakfast. Dr Benjamin Carson rose from abject poverty, poor student, to become a world renowned pediatric surgeon. He is also a staunch conservative Christian and believer in a strong work ethic.
Watch as Barack Obama sits there impassively & expressionless through the entire speech, never applauding, never acknowledging any points that Dr Carson makes. In fact, I am sure that Barack Obama is seething & squirming inside as Dr Benjamin Carson speaks of the impending destruction of our country unless we return to conservative Biblical values & principles. He really knocks political correctness as an attack against our free speech, knocks the fallacy of the progressive tax system, knocks Medicare, knocks 0bamaCare, knocks the death panels, knocks rewarding people who refuse to work, etc. I bet that this will be the last prayer breakfast that 0bama attends, unless it is conducted by a muslim iman.

Thanks for the ping. What an awesome speech! I saw this man on Fox News Sunday once and never forgot him. Definitely going to buy his book.
Actually, that comma makes him two people! Let’s eat grandpa!
Thank you for that Amazon link! I will definitely check out Dr. Carson’s book...

I had a different take on his nodding off. . .it was as though he wanted to be insensate so he couldn’t hear what Dr. Carson was saying.
Thanks for the ping. Watching that video made my day.
I was thinking last night that the guy is crazier than an outhouse rat. He should be wearing one of those nice white jackets with the long sleeves and attractive buckles and straps. He's getting worse by the day, and people just act like they are afraid of him, and let him do all the crazy stuff he wants. Weeeeeeeeeird.....
The whole audience gave him a standing ovation....and were still standing LONG AFTER the Obamas had sat down...(which was pretty quickly...go back and look again)
Der Furher looks like he’s got a poop in his pants throughout the entire speech.
What a clod of a president we have. Moreso, though, what clods we must have for CITIZENS who would vote him into office.
It’s so sad. This is the type of black man who could have led so many more out of the ghettos and into productive lives.
Instead we have Mr. and Mrs. Hawaiian Elitist Lawyer teaching them how to stay mad at whitey all their lives and remain victims.
Thanks for the ping!
“Just finished watching Gifted Hands, The Ben Carson Story starring Cuba Gooding Jr. on Netflix. Great family movie that highlights some of his story and achievements.”
The movie is decent, but it does not do justice to the book “Gifted Hands”.
It is an outstanding read.
Ben Carson came from absolutely nothing and managed to become the chief neurosurgeon at John Hopkins. All he had was a the talents God gave him and a single mother who demanded excellence. Ironically, she could not read.
So he makes a great point advocating a flat tax. I agreed 100%. Throw out all the loopholes. Everyone pays flat tax rate. Then 5 minutes later he's talking about pretax contributions to a health savings account. (pretax means loophole). He's like everyone else. And those type of inconsistencies don't work if you're a republican. Obama gets away with them because the press loves him. This guy won't get away with it.
