Notice that those silos are hollow, not ninety-nine percent full of limestone, bricks and clay.

Sometimes it is the opposite.

‘There appears to be a lot of non Carson supporters on FR. Do you think his religion has something to do with it?’

No. For me it was his comments re Trayvon Martin and the gentle giant, Michael Brown. We’ve already had one racial tdivider; not sure how we’d survive another hot on his heels.

‘Just like Herman Cain in 2012, the Leftist media doesn’t want to attack the black man—until he starts to rise to the top in the polls—and then he is a target that needs to be destroyed. Then they’ll blame it on Republican racism.’

+1!

‘Thought the same thing after reading this from the article:
In a report dubbed “a tale of two Ben Carsons,”

CNN reported on Thursday that two of its reporters tracked down 10 of Carson’s former schoolmates and neighbors in Detroit: “None challenged Carson’s story directly,” CNN reported. “Only one said they’d heard vague rumors about one of the incidents, but all said this was not the boy they knew.”’

The thought of the MSM tracking down ten of Obama’s classmates to verify something from Dreams out of my Father cracks me up. If they did interview anyone from Obama’s past, the questions would run along the lines of, ‘Was he always this wonderful?’

There has to be some reason he stays drugged up all the time.

Castrus said:
“Oh he**, you’d vote for Jeb Bush or Lindsay Graham before you’d vote for Trump - and don’t try to deny it. You have TDS.”

I say:
Of course the usual Trumpster troll resorts to labeling everyone as GOPe who don’t bow at the feet of their idol.

No, moron, I wouldn’t vote for any of those losers because that’s what they all are: losers. Trump is just a version of GOPe in his own form, but they’re all the same.

However, I’m pretty certain you would vote for Elizabeth Warren or HRC bfeore you’d vote for Cruz since your a DUmmie in disguise.

Oh, hell yeah.

Let’s all just throw the election to Hitlery.

It’s the right thing to do.

“No. It proves he is more saved than most.”

That’s great but how does it relate to a qualification for being president?

Frankly I think the whole world is nut except for you and me and sometimes I wonder about me!

Can’t figure out why Carson seems hell bent on wanting everyone to think that he was a violent youth? We’ve already had one idiot in the WH who espoused the “Yes You Can” change and it’s turned out to be a total fiasco for our nation. He needs to quit digging in that same hole.

I must get a photo of the ruin up the road from me.

There’s not much left, but you can clearly see it *used* to be a grain pyramid.

It’s much smaller and more primitive than those, but still..

“No. It proves he is more saved than most.”

I’m hoping that was sarcasm.

Little or big, sin is sin and we’re all equally guilty before God and equally saved.

By *faith*, not works.

Ok, while everyone could have predicted this, I said that once Carson got the lead in a couple of polls the drive-bys would come after him like he was Hitler. Exhibit one.

So we'll see if Carson can sustain ANY #1 poll ranking with 1/10 the abuse Trump got for four months. (My prediction, again, is "no.")

His story is better if he was a horrible sinner. That’s all this is about.

Is he being dishonest about it? Time will tell.

“I’m hoping that was sarcasm.”

It wasn’t sarcasm. There are a lot of excellent people that aren’t cut out to be president. Carson is an excellent doctor. He is a moral person. He’s smart.

That doesn’t mean he’s the best choice for president. Some of the attributes that make for a good president might be called character flaws.

Not a Carson fan, but can anyone picture the MSM giving Obama this level of scrutiny?


Or Hillary... The duplicity of their support is becoming clearer and clearer and they will do anything to take down someone who exposes them

Oh, and I’d love to see Ted Cruz lead the way.


Agree. He has the cojones to do just that.

You’re right about the MSM not vetting Hillary. An in-depth expose re the women she destroyed, or tried to destroy, in the effort to save her rapist/philanderer husband would do her in.

They cleverly let Paula Jones, et al appear to make their case, but slant the coverage towards “ nut job” status to cover up for “ Golden Girl”
