VERY interesting. I wonder what state her marriage is in? I heard he say one time that she was married to a Turk who is a Muslim.

I look for her to convert to conservatism as did Charles K.

He has the back bone, if fact he relishes going after political adversaries. Why not unleash his anger and wrath towards these Muslim slugs?

Is she the one who is the recent convert to Catholicism? She’s coming around.

Her husband Marty Makary is an Egyptian Coptic Christian who has become an evangelical.

OOOOOPS...sorry, Carlos Danger & Anthony Weiner are one and the same. Knew that sounded a tad familiar.

Would like to see that too, but I think she would turn indie instead. I don’t think she has the stomach to ever consider herself conservative.

The Spreading Scourge of Anti-Christian Persecution
Dr. Ben Carson

TOWNHALL 8/6/2014

Intolerance that fosters pogroms abroad is taking root in U.S. communities. Sobering and unforgettable images are projected across our television and computer screens. They should elicit the most basic instincts of both fear and compassion.

I’m referring to images of showing the persecution of hundreds of thousands, perhaps even millions, of our fellow brothers and sisters by incomprehensible religious zealots. Their intolerance of Christianity is beyond horrible.

People are beheaded for their faith. Women and young girls are sexually violated, and whole families are wantonly slaughtered in cold blood. Perhaps just as abhorrent is the profound silence of the current administration. Even though President Obama has declared that we are not a Judeo-Christian nation, we are still compassionate people who should not ignore humanitarian atrocities, much less ones where the victims are only guilty of maintaining a belief in the principles espoused by Jesus Christ.

We have an obligation as Americans to denounce these acts of persecution. Even those who do not worship a higher deity should be concerned. For when we stand up to such intolerance, we are defending the root of freedom. We are defending choice — the ability to worship and call on the name of a heavenly being without fear of torture and abandonment.

The president, who very early in his tenure won the Nobel Peace Prize, now has an opportunity to truly be the broker of peace in a very troubled part of the world. He can be a champion of freedom of religion, a founding principle of our nation. As long as religious practices do not infringe upon the rights of others, he can make it clear that it is wrong to interfere with those practices.

"Here’s how much good sense she has, she dated Carlos Danger for God’s sake"

Good grief. Bad sense, and even worse taste! *shudder*

Guess politics changes when like-thinkers are hunted and exterminated and your POTUS don’t give a rats ass, eh?

Welcome to our world, Ms.

If we still claim to be a society that is founded on Judeo-Christian principles, and do not help Israel and the Christians in Iraq, the history of Sodom and Gomorrah will be a spring rain compared to what will befall our country.

She should also try to change that sullen dhimmicrat look in her eyes for something more positive.
