I have to give Carson’s campaign credit. It’s a brilliant strategy:
- Lie your ass off; and
- Scream “witch hunt!” any time anyone questions you on your lies.

Obama’s high school classmates remember a cheerful friendly well-adjusted kid; Obama describes suffering over his identity. I think we may all remember our adolescence rather differently than others observed us.
Would someone please calculate the pyramid storage capacity so we can get that story straight.
I think its rather telling that he ATTEMPTED to attack his mother with a hammer, and he ATTEMPTED to stab a classmate with a knife.
This is a highly regarded surgeon. Precision and aim are of paramount importance in that field. But he misses with a hammer and can’t hit with a knife??
You have to admit that his whole demeanor does somewhat resemble that of an …agitated… mental patient who’s been put on a little Thorazine to smooth out the physical responses to internal turmoil. So maybe he DID have some violent ideations that got a bit out of hand at one point or another, but he got help.
In any case it does seem a bit odd that the attacked individuals, like his mother, don’t step forward and say, “yes, he really did raise a hammer toward me once” or something like that. I mean, hey, mom, he must have looked really threatening when he did that. How come you don’t remember it?
The ATTEMPTS were probably more like GESTURES.
The number of religious experiences I’e had in my bathroom are more than I can count on one hand.
HA! Look what the spork brought.
Wow.
lol
Or mere thoughts. Christianity in its many forms, is big on guilting people for their sins. So much so that people fabricate sins in order to receive forgiveness. These “revelations” came about as he was having his “conversion moment”.
So I can totally see him turning angry thoughts he had a teen into much bigger incidents then they really were. Saying Jesus forgave me for attacking my mother with a hammer carries a whole lot more than saying Jesus forgave me for being mad at my mother for dressing me funny.
Uncle Ben’s trying to portray himself as a born man of violence who saw the error of his ways thanks to the civilizing influence of white Christian people.
He’s doing this cause his supporters believe ni(CLANG!) act that way to begin with.
I think you’re right.
It’s already looking like the post debate spikes from the last Republican primaries. The Donald held on for a long time (and still might), but now it might be back to: they are starving for a viable candidate and have none, so every debate they pick a new darling who hasn’t seen the real media spotlight, and after that darling rises into that spotlight, they burn up. So the party returns to the next debate even more desperate for a viable candidate. Unfortunately their base is so hopped up on hate and fear that any viable candidate for them, isn’t viable for the presidency so… rinse and repeat.
I was robbed at gunpoint 25 years ago and I remember every fucking detail. I bet you within a day the police records department of my hometown could pull the report too. While your memory may be fogged from the delivery, I also bet you could easily obtain the hospital record of your son’s birth.
until he had a religious experience in the bathroom of his Detroit home.
I have to say, I think this is an experience most men in the country could identify with. Well played Dr. Carson.
Um… Do you guys remember what happened to you LAST time you tried running a candidate who pretended to be something he wasn’t?
Why would anyone spend resources finding old classmates etc ?
Dr. Carson delivers stupid comments in real-time, no need to dig in the past…
Whatever their capacity they fall short of the storage requirements for Ben Carson’s fertilizer.
I was very close to a religious experience in the fitting room at Macy’s once, but my date’s sudden fear of the possibility of hidden cameras nixed it.
Yeah… but BEFORE they held elected office they hadn’t held elected office! So there!
'Where is the ‘k’ word?
An election that has Donald Trump in it and he hasn’t said ‘kook’ once? What’s the world coming to?
I bet Kim Davis signed their marriage license!
Dr. Ben Carson says he was prone to outbursts of violence during his youth until he had a religious experience in the bathroom of his Detroit home.
The best ‘O’ orgasm ever or one hella relief of a dump?
