Ben Carson hits back at Ilhan Omar after she knocks his performance during House hearing
Fox News ^ | May 22, 2019 | Sam Dorman

Ben Carson has fired back at Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Mich., after the controversial freshman congresswoman criticized him after a hearing Tuesday.

Omar knocked the Housing and Urban Development (HUD) secretary over his conduct during an appearance before the House Financial Services Committee.

"Not sure he was fully awake, maybe he meant to reclaim his time back to sleep," she quipped. She was playing off of Carson's request for time during a testy exchange with Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass.

Omar hasn’t got the brains to shine Ben Carson’s shoes.

We are witnessing the suicide of the United States.

No. There are plenty of us who aren’t ‘suicidal’. The crazies are just a lot noisier - and noise is all they really have.

Not sure who is a bigger a-hole in the Den freshman class, Omar or AOC. I’d put my money on Omar for her bile and overt antisemitism.

Sadly, it does seem so. Worse, though...it now appears the folks who best are able to right this ship of state are getting too old to perform the dangerous, bloody, and necessary actions.

Jefferson said the Tree of Liberty was to be watered, periodically, with the blood of both tyrants and patriots.

I’m not sure the snowflakes we are turning out by the millions are up to the task. I am, also, not at all sure they understand the implications of their ignorance.

Ben should have taken a play out their playbook and yelled racism.

They were the ones that thought farting sounds in class was funny, so they kept doing it through High School.

Pelosi gets orders like the rest of them. You will notice that Pelosi has changed her tune about this matter and others.

Ilhan Omar and the Somalis in Minneapolis and elsewhere are the result of a concerted effort.

CAIR is at the front of it, but CAIR doesn't have the money for it.

Someone else has paid for it...and the group who paid for it is now telling Pelosi what to do and say.

AOC is just young, ignorant and foolish. Omar is evil.

Are you kidding? nutsy pelousy is encouraging this.

We should be heading for a show down. Not sure how long it is going to take to get there but we are coming to a point where elections will not do.

Trump and his people are leading the way to not taking any more bull shit from the left and it is way past time to confront them and call them out.

If a fight is what they want I think they are about to get one.

But Ben is a gentleman. This kind of thing is going to shake him up and shake up a lot of others at the same time.

Good.

I’m sure that Dr. Carson has suffered from racism at points in his life. But he’s a man of great dignity, and stands on his actual accomplishments.

I’d like to see Omar save - instead of destroy - the number of lives that Ben Carson has saved; or save people from all the pain that Carson has alleviated.

She couldn’t come near; she’s made of nothing but shallow, polly-parrot ideology.

Did anyone ask Rep Omar about the barbaric treatment of women in Somalia?

Or about the “rape-culture” being employed against girls in Nigeria by Somali men?

I even read that some Somali women are forced to “marry” their own brothers...

Evil like Nelson Mandela, the smiling assassin with very good press agents.

“... and noise is all they really have.” Well, in a word: Wrong!

The crazies have the eneMidia, academia, mass culture, the courts, the entire Demofascist Party and their violent criminal arm antifa.

Classic case of an unarmed dingbat woman engaging in a battle of wits with a superbly armed man!

Just Noise.

Every day, people believe the ‘mass media’ less and less. The Great God Media has destroyed its own credibility.

I work in ‘academia’ - and it isn’t the single-minded lockstep that people think. Over the past ten years or so, it’s become a morass of discontent, even though it’s often a subterranean discontent. Watch and see.

The Democrats are making absolute fools of themselves; and they’ll pay for that - there are still too many intelligent and canny - if quiet - people, Watching.

(And ‘Antifa’ has shown itself to be pretty flaccid...)
