The following shows what kind of good, kind decent doctor he really is.

During a September 2006 meeting of the President’s Council on Bioethics, members debated whether it’s appropriate for a surgeon to remove organs for donation from a patient who isn’t dead, but is on the verge of it.

“You know the surgeon in me says, you know, if somebody is irreversibly injured, they are not going to come back to a functional state, and if [there is] somebody else who could use their organs, we should take the organ and give it to the one that can stop going through all this silliness,” Carson said in remarks that have not been widely reported. “But I recognize that I’m not speaking as a surgeon today. I’m speaking as a member of the Presidents Council on Bioethics.”
