Really, “Uncle Ben?”
So as a prank some 35 years ago, we may end up having a President worse than GWB. God save us form Yale.
What I’d like to have been a fly on the wall for is the portrait sessions with Jesus.
Maybe he was so gullible they didn’t have the heart to tell him.
No joke. He probably thinks his supporters actually like him.
Next up? Carson claims to have broken up a fight between Aunt Esther and Grady
Words of wisdom to the rest of the GOP loons:
So, basically he was thoroughly fooled by a student newspaper hoax, and was awarded his “prize” for being the most clueless. But, being clueless, he still didn’t catch on, and thought he won some sort of cockamamie honesty contest put on by his professor.
To be fair, he probably had a lot on his mind, between uncovering the true purpose of the pyramids and investigating the satanic inspiration of the theory of evolution. These are the sorts of things that can really weigh on the mind of a young idiot savant.
At last, but certainly not least, Ben “If I’m Tryin’, I’m Lyin’” Carson may have lied about everything of any note in his life, but he’ll always have the satisfaction of knowing he singlehandidly saved Middle Earth.
Carson: There I was at Khazad-dum…
What the hell does that even mean?
Somebody, somewhere has a trophy photo of a young Ben Carson holding a ten dollar bill.
That’s hilarious. Now I’m picturing Carson telling his wife not to worry about it, nothing’s set it stone.
Speaking of Mrs. Carson, I’m interested to “meet” her.
Somebody, somewhere is tearing apart their garage/basement/attic looking through old photos. This someone is desperately trying to find that picture of the creepy black kid, the one they felt so bad about pranking that they gave him $10 and told him it was an award for being the most honest kid in school. That someone voted for Obama twice, thinks Carson is a kook, and can’t wait to go on Maddow to tell their story.
What’s especially ironic is that the second word in that “poverb” is humility… in a house whose walls are literally crammed full of items singing his praises.
And what’s meta-ironic is the fact that nobody outside of his fawning Evangelical fans would have the slightest inkling of the existence of all this stupid crap if he hadn’t gotten the insane notion of running for President in the first place. For somebody who makes a big point of trumpeting his humility, Carson has an oddly gigantic ego.
I actually feel sort of sorry for him. The negative attention he’s getting after almost 30 years of unrelenting praise has to be disconcerting as hell, and all he’s capable of doing is framing it in his childishly simple way.
Photo from his house. Sit down before you look through the photos. A stiff drink will help as well
Carson has proven one thing. He can keep a straight face while lying over and over and has quite the imagination.
He must be the most boring dude around, he doesn’t have one real, honest to Jeebus, wild story to tell. All of his fabrications are part of the build up to his current awesomeness and unique relationship to the lord.
This is a disorder of some sort. He inserts himself into the lives of others and adopts their character. Multiple Boring Personality Syndrome, I believe. MBPS, that’s it.
I think it means that if you are humble and fear God, you’ll receive wealth, fame, and a full life. No doubt Carson thinks it worked like a charm.
I’m betting that he had a bunch of those certificates on the walls made at Office Depot.
Why would he let anyone see this? The man is seriously messed up.
when Ben is president, I’m buying back Louisiana for a bag of black-eyed peas and autographed picture of Jesus.
That’s “Poverbs”
They Made Up Fo It By Capitalizing Evey Wod In The Vese.
