Scarborough: Does 'Quirky' Carson with 'Crazy' Theory Have 'Character' to be President?
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/06/2015 4:16:22 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Joe Scarborough's critique of Ben Carson goes way beyond policy differences. Scarborough questions whether Carson has the "character" to be president.

On today's Morning Joe, Scarborough twice suggested Carson was "quirky" and said his theory on the pyramids is "crazy." Scarborough suggestively asked whether Carson "has the temperament, whether he has the character to be President of the United States?"

Hillary is bat poop crazy but no one is asking this about her.

The same people will also need to ask if Hillary is quirky for talking to Eleanor Roosevelt's ghost .

I don’t support Carson, don’t believe he’ll be president, but this is just stupid. Everyone has a few quack theories - he’s entitled to his. Although I wouldn’t have broadcast this one.

There's something wrong there. He needs to be vetted completely. And needs more questions asked during the debates.

Well maybe it isn’t such a crazy theory after all:

Even if some of Carson’s opinions on non relevant issues are “quirky” what does that have to do with his “character” or “temperament”? Those are totally different things.

Will Chris Wallace ever ask Carson if he is kind of ‘flaky’ like he did with Michelle Bachmann?

==

CNN is talking about the quirky and weird and craziness regarding Carson.

They are definitely trying to paint a picture -- but the paint is Carson's own words.

Do you know this to be true, or is it a rumor?

Carson is the GOPe plant to take away votes from Trump, and the media, talking heads and RINOs are all in on it...

Trump has pulled back the drape and shown us all how dirty and corrupt these people are just last week when he told the GOPe Pubus what he thought about his little antics...

Trump doesn't have SS protection right now because of some drug dealer pandering drugs, he has SS protection because they know if Trump wins they won't have the power and money to line their pockets anymore...

If Trump looses, Hillary wins and America will be in it's third term of obuma...you want that, then drink what the GOPe is giving you, let them shove Hillary down your throats just like they always have been doing, and nothing will be done to correct any of the crime, corruption and dirty ‘back room deals’ going on...

Trump/Cruz are the two that can clean this country up...and after this next debate you will see that happening...stand strong...let Trump do his job; let Cruz do his job and we will win!!!

Scarborough calling someone else “Quirky” is the “pot calling the kettle black”.

If you get into character then all of them are going to come up short to one degree or another.

I don’t think that Taterjay’s point is because the libs do, Ben Carson can do the same. Rather, the point is the libs say all manner of crazy things masquerading as policy and no one says a peep but something Carson said in a “You know, I was thinking...” way and now he’s a loon who should be banned from even spelling President.

The whole point is that Dems get away with anything bc the MSM are their palace guards and enablers. Republicans get away with squat bc the MSM views them as stupid, ignorant and evil. That’s just the way it is.

If nothing else, Carson has the character to get a good many Freeper panties in a twist.
