Yep.

Media: Dr. Carson, you’ve used your reputation as a doctor to endorse an unproven dietary supplement that is irresponsibly promoted, and you lied about having any connection to the supplement’s maker. What do you have to say in response?

Dr. Carson: My rival campaigns should be ashamed for sneaking around and spreading this information, just as the media should be ashamed for reporting it.

OH my, my…my feelings are so hurt…

What was reported, and asked, was true! Stop lying you ass-wipe!

Carson combines the batshit of Bachmann, the incoherence of Palin, the ignorance of a Tea Partier, and the lack of empathy of Huckabee.

I think he will lose the GOP primary in spite of those GOP-favored qualities.

We call them “hoagies” in these parts.

Actually, this stuff was known for a while. There are various medical blogs or science blogs that have already brought it up while discussing various sorts of stuff with no evidence of working.

Dr. Carson, your course is clear. The next time someone catches you in a goddamned lie, stab 'em.

In other words, someone asked you about your associations and business dealings with a company that was 1) fined for deceptive advertising and 2) paying YOU to shill for them.

Carson’s debate response to this question was pathetic- “I had no association with Mannatech. I did some paid speeches for them, but that’s it. Great product though.”

Another GOP Turd

And so what if other candidates did use the National Review? How would that be wrong, exactly? Isn’t that sort of how journalists are supposed to work?

I think he meant sub-moron.

It’s torpedo. The word you’re looking for is “torpedo.”

Heaven knows there’s no reason for a depth charge…there’s absolutely no depth with this group.

It seems sooooo much like pre-alzheimerish loss of comprehension and vocabulary when you hear him speak. He makes me wonder whether (aside from the obvious deficiencies) he hasn’t fried some wiring in his CPU.

To be fair Dr Ben was eating a submarine sandwich from Subway during the interview. So his confusion is understandable.

So you see, we shouldn’t let this affect our opinion of Carson because that’s exactly what his enemies want!

Whether his connection to Mannatech was made public by oppo or independent research, his response disqualifies from being President. The man simply has no integrity.

pretty racy, considering submarines are full of seamen…

He was channelling Biff Tannen…

A great Slice topic would be a dive into the interconnected worlds of nutritional supplements, multilevel marketing, home schooling, libertarian doctors who are actually theocrats and the GOP.

Having worked on a short project for Amway back in the aughts, I can testify the correlation is very high…

Yep he just lost the Pennsylvania / South Jersey vote! No getting it back, even if he stands barefoot for three days in the parking lot of a WaWa.
