And Ex's point surrounding the outright lies he tells is germane to this whole subject. I'd like to know why it is that a guy TRYING to be the POTUS gets a pass on lying???

He doesn't. If he lied about that, what else will he lie about? What else IS he lying about?

Stick a fork in him. He's done. (From a critical thinking perspective that is).

Ahem.....Hillary Clinton?

One point of difference twixt the two HH.  Hillary Clinton sat in that stupid, politically motivated, hearing for hours, being grilled over and over again by people who were clearly out to get her.  Did she whine about it?  NO.

What's Ben Carson done since his lies and/or fabrications came to light?  WHINE about it all over the damn place.

Stay on topic. . .

How can you even consider giving Carson a pass when he has been proven to be a liar?

Where's the righteous indignation now?

Where's the requirement for relevant experience you've been touting over the last 8 years?

Is that all it takes, a picture of the person with Jeebus?

I hold the personal opinion that science could provide empirical proof validating a brown-skiined Jesus if the Xtian/Jewish coalition had not absconded with the biological remains from the Lost Tomb of Jesus.  .  .  :wink:

Of course that will never happen because it would support the messiah as having been real; in direct conflict with Jewish beliefs, and urinating effectively all over the main-stream Anglo-Saxon beliefs on several levels. . . :icon_twisted:

First of all, I'm not sure he IS a liar.  Let's give this time to air out.  Give him a chance to tell his side.

How is a picture of him with Jesus a bad thing?  HOW?

Where's the righteous indignation regarding Hillary, who has been proven for a FACT she is a liar, but yet crickets. 

I'm not saying I am 100% behind Carson, but I like the man very much. 

Experience comes in many packages........I think one can be qualified for this job without being a one-term senator and a community organizer.  Evidently that is enough for many folks.

I want someone, who is a leader.  Someone who can convince Americans that his/her way is the best, and then prove it.

Obama failed at this miserably.

As far a Jesus being brown, I really don't care what color he is. He is the Son of God.  That is my belief.

Nope but what do you expect? 

It's a moot issue anyway because he will never get the nomination.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

Why can't you see this?  I know you are smart enough, I just don't understand HOW you can say the things you do with a straight face.

Hogwash. He lied. Why can you not hold this man to the exact same standards you hold the current POTUS to? How does rattling around inside of the skulls of humanity make this man qualified to be POTUS? Moreover, how does the personal opinions of those who worked closely with this man carry zero weight surrounding your decision process in consideration of his qualifications? Lastly, how does the aforementioned rattling around inside of human skulls trump documented experience within governmental leadership?

What part of separation of church and state do you not understand? How do you constantly fail to see the importance of this? It is a painting/ drawing of hi with Jesus. Not a picture. I'm pretty sure Jesus was dead by the time he was born. That you don't see the raging narcism in that painting/drawing is concerning to me.

There may have been a smidgeon or two of validity to your claim, had this blatant years long kangaroo court session not been consistently undertaken by the ultra conservatives to absolutely zero result. Wasting untold millions of taxpayer revenue on nothing more than a not so covert and epically failed attempt at character assassination. That tripe makes the entire party look like the sore losers they are.

I gave him a look based upon some of his positions on the issues, but once I dug a little deeper, and he began injecting extremist religiosity into his platform, He went straight into the "thanks for playing " heap. He's absolutely an insane zealot with heavy narcissistic complexity issues.

He is absolutely out. 110% in my book. And anyone saying otherwise is highly suspect of being a dues paying member of the emotional cow herd. Period.

I don't disagree and I have said so for nearly 8 years. But among the missing components I suspect to be absent within your process is the application of critical thought.

Emotional piracy should not be amongst the basic skill-set of a candidate for POTUS, and unfortunately it appears to be a basic requirement for the GOP in this day and age. The present line-up is chic-full of them; and heavy on the narcissism as well.

GIANT red flags to me, and I admit to be absolutely befuddled by the inability of the average herd member of the emotional cows, to see this!?

Fortunately you do not get to be the decision maker upon the validity of your 8 year long hissy fit and parroting of the party lines. History will be the ultimate judge surrounding the failure or successes of the 8 years Obama Administrations record; just as it has been for centuries.

Unfortunately, I will be ashes by the time the jury comes in with that call; however by that time I will be among those that know the answer to who killed JFK, along with the answers to the long list of unanswered questions society has not been provided the answers for. . .

And I'll be laughing my ass off or burning in a lake of fire at the same time. Or perhaps making various electronic gadgets malfunction, blow up, and break just to let you know I was right all along. (At least in part anyway).  :wink:

And for the record, I see, hear, read, comprehend, and apply critical thought as a component within my personal decision process; and I do so faithfully. I know full well the allegations that opponents spread liberally like manure  across the media in all forms. I also know how to tell BBQ from bullshit, and will not be dragged into an emotional storm full of red-herrings, dead ends, and outright fabrications and lies.

I expect my elected government officials to do the jobs they are elected to do, and not waste my time, insult my intelligence, and most importantly waste my hard earned tax dollars frolicking naked along the sea shores of foreign lands while they cut funding that is direly needed by the least amongst us.

That dog won't hunt and never has in my view. And it never will.
