When will “we” learn.

Never back down or apologize because the secular humanists object to what you said.

Ben Carson might as well cancel his Presidential Exploratory Committee. He’s done.

Obama Says Homosexuality Is A ‘Lifestyle Choice’

President Barack Obama’s gay allies are ignoring his endorsement of the long-standing claim that sexual orientation is a matter of choice.

“I think people know that treating folks unfairly, even if you disagree with their lifestyle choice… Let them live their lives and under the law they should be treated equally,” he said 25 minutes into his Wednesday interview with GloZell Green, a YouTube personality.

Obama’s statement violates progressives’ demand that Americans believe there’s no choice in sexual orientation.

But Obama’s statement reflects mainstream views.

A May 2014 poll by Gallup showed that only 42 percent of Americans believe all gay people are “born that way,” regardless of choice. Thirty-seven percent of Americans believe that homosexuality is linked to upbringing and environment.

Glads to see this phony get exposed early on before people wasted a lot of energy on him.

If his 2nd Amendment stance did not convince you, this should.

We accuse dems of supporting people because the color of their skin, sad thing is if this guy was white we would not even be talking about him.

Why is it that homosexuals do not have to apologize for there most outrageous antics?

If he wanted to point to evidence that homosexuality is a choice, he should've pointed to NY Mayor Bill De Blasio's wife. She used to be a lesbian. But, oddly enough, she's still black.

So as much as the Gaystapo likes to equate homosexuality with being black, I'm not sure there's ever been a case of a black person all of a sudden becoming white.

Michael Jackson notwithstanding.

Ben is a great American, but he is not presidential timbre (in this case, timbre makes more sense that timber...because Ben is honest but tone deaf).

Carson is impressive in his own right as a surgeon so I don’t get why he wants to subject himself to lesser beings known as politicians and their professional butt-kissers, the media. His inability to understand nuance is also surprising in his superficial pronouncements about guns and homosexuality.

“Never apologize, it’s a sign of weakness...”

I am beginning to think that such integrity has been bred or beaten out of American men.

Mistake 1: Talking about homosexuality instead of about what he's going to save world civilization.

Mistake 2: Apologizing.

I'm thinking more and more that this guy as an attractive distractor, encouraged by those who really favor RINO elitists, in there to siphon away votes from constitutional conservatives.

Besides that, he's never been in a situation where he'd have a voting record. Carson should drop out now, and hope this didn't destroy his chances to be Surgeon General.

No apologies needed for telling the truth. No apology every coerced should be accepted as anything other than what it is. I would have said so my example may have been less than perfect but the Truth is the Truth and I stand by what I did say.

Here’s one more reason to lose all respect for this man. To kowtow to the sodomites is disgusting. He knows damn-well and scientifically, that faggotry is a choice, a very a bad life-style choice.

CRUZ 2016!

He says what he means, means what he says, always confident in what he believes; Walker completely lost me, now Carson, the potential candidates falling like domino’s.

It is amazing how back-trackers and flip-flopers gain more points by doing so, I guess because it works for progessive liberal communists it should work for them, initially it may be so; but eventually it wears thin...they will fall; in the mean time so much money and resources is wasted.

Stick with the one who stands apart from the domino’s; not subjecting himself and his values and principles to the fall.

CRUZ 2016!

He will never make it through the media gauntlet but if he’s going to hang around and support other candidates, he needs to brush off these homo questions which any affect 2% of the population who choose this behavior.

Focus on the positive conservative things we can do to make families strong again and the other things that actually work to make the country better and reduce poverty as opposed to the feel good democrat solutions that DON’T work and bring poverty and misery to all.

Another sufferer from foot-in-mouth disease, and he hasn’t even ‘officially’ announced his candidacy.

But, the media/Libs/Dems get a ‘gotcha’ win as Carson gets on the apology bus.

Not a bad week — Chris Wallace managed to get 2 ‘gotchas’ from Scott Walker on Sunday. (1) Wallace got Walker to counter Guiliani and claim Obama DOES love America. (2) Wallace got Walker to admit he has flip-flopped on amnesty/comprehensive immigration.

Not a bad week for the media/Libs/Dems and it is only Thursday.

Ben Carson apologized Wednesday for saying homosexuality was a lifestyle choice.

W-way-way, wait.

Who is offended? Homosexuals are allegedly offended at Carson for saying sodomy is a "lifestyle choice"? That's what the homosexual lobby has been saying for 40 years. The word "lifestyle" itself is a homosexual coinage of the 1970s, designed to trivialize "choosing" to do something wrong or perverse.

All of a sudden, sodomy is not some marvelous, inconsequential caprice like which brand of cola you feel like drinking today? We're saying now that it's a hereditary fate like like blue eyes or sickle-cell anemia? Isn't that kind of a dangerous line to be peddling, if you also don't believe in morality?

What if some large movement of people is ready to take you at your word—Moslems, say—and decides it would be socially helpful to round you up and kill you, to breed your strange habits out of existence? If you've extirpated the divine law against sodomy, how is the divine law against willful murder going to save you?

Does the homosexual religion require believing that it will always be touchy-feely "business as usual" in the beleaguered Western world?

Why is it that almost anytime anyone says anything politically incorrect, they end up apologizing and groveling? Who gets to them?

The only exceptions are Phil Robertson and Franklin Graham, unless I missed something.

I wonder what “advisor” told him to apologize?

BAD idea. Its the equivalent of saying to the Left “I surrender.”

All behaviors are a choice. Is obesity a choice? Is smoking a choice? Is gambling a choice? Is running marathons a choice?

I thought Ben Carson’s comments were somewhat ignernt. But in politics when you say something you need to stand by it or you get crucified.

Frankly I don’t know what compelled him to utter the words in the first place. I would say prison is not a good analogy. Most people would not say getting held down by 3 other guys is a choice. :-)
