Well, they could try to restore some dignity and sanity to the process and the party by calling him out (and others who amp their rhetoric up to unhealthy levels) - but that would just open them up for attacks by vultures like Cruz in the lowest-common-denominator Thunderdome that is the GOPrimary. Maybe Chris Christie (if he even makes the debate?) can try a desperation shouting match at Trump to stay alive - he really needs something
What did he say that made him sound like an idiot? The only thing I know about him is an 11 minute interview on meet the press.
Apparently there is a debate at 4 PM for the non-10 prime time guys at 8 pm CST. I really really want to see Perry, Trump, Cruz, Paul, and Huckabee, and Bush all in one room. Why would Trump not be in the debate?
I guess we differ on what counts as a "good point." How about Carson saying Obamacare was the worst thing since slavery? or saying our society is "very much like Nazi Germany?" Are those good points as well? If you have newborn twins conjoined at the the head, Carson is the man to call. If you need ANYTHING else done, I'd go a different direction.
Not really. That would be like saying if someone smoked weed once they are a drug addict. Just because someone who might engage in the act in an extreme and unusual circumstance doesn't mean that that is there persuasion. Rape is often not a matter of sexual satisfaction but also an act of power or asserting dominance. I would guess that in prison that is even a bigger issue. I'm disappointed too that someone who is a neurosurgeon wouldn't also consider that there is a fair amount of evidence showing biological differences in homosexual brains than in the brains of heterosexuals.
I don't care enough about politics to stay up to date and hear about his other comments. Just commenting on that single thing. Edited: because this is the D&D and people take everything the wrong way.
I was just saying I don't keep up with politics enough to have heard his other comments nor do I even know who this guy is. I just thought his point was interesting as I had never heard someone spin something that way.
Most of those sound facetious. The interview I saw on meet the press he addressed being misquoted as calling the black lives matter movement silly. What he was really calling silly, according to him, was that if someone says "all lives matter" they get in trouble. Then he had an example of someone I don't care about apologizing for saying all lives matter. I don't think he is a guy that can be summed up in quotes. His answers weren't dittohead type repetitious taglines.
Oh yeah, he's a barrel of laughs that Ben Carson Except that it's a stock line of us and he's dead serious - it's red meat for the tea party faithful and he believes every bit of it:
He brought up slavery and Nazi Germany to be flippant? That just doesn't make any sense at all. At some point the man needs to own up to the nonsense he spews. If someone compares our society with Nazi Germany, it not only show a total lack of knowledge on this country, but on the Nazis as well. It shows such a lack on knowledge that the guy should be dismissed outright for the comment. Carson is irrelevant anyway. He has 0.0% chance of getting the nomination.
Well take the time to learn something up to date. There is more to life than sports (Go Rockets!!) and infotainment. It is one of the reasons why we have lost our democracy to a few selfish billionaires whose pr firms feed crap to the ordinary voters.
