Maybe it's because he's a neurosurgeon (and I'm all about nerves, lol), but mostly I think I get a real feeling of, gut, level honesty. I'm watching this guy. I also have to say, I like Sarah Palin, it almost sounds like she's breaking out of that "holier then thou" mode (maybe she was never in it, I never followed her before) but I love how she just blurts out inappropriate things like I do, "denise, the abbeynormal American" you go Sarah. I bet she thinks farts are funny too;)
 

I would be interested in that Ronald, I will look it up but can you give me the title? Thank you much:) denise
 

No problem here with your opinion, to me it's refreshing to see someone get out there and just say it even if all the "smart" people think she's an idiot. I haven't listened to a lot of her stuff, but I know something about being caught up in religion, and maybe, just maybe, seeing it's a load of "not so good stuff". She made a comment tonight that bust me up, and how the people were shocked, all those prim and proper, politically correct people. Something about "they can't get on your back if you don't bend over for them".

I like her, maybe I'll hear something I don't like "from her" but for now, tell it like you see it Sarah:)

I think farts are funny. I am not Alaskan, have never been to Alaska.






Just remembered I did eat Baked Alaska one time.
 
I like Ben Carson too. I see something about him almost every day on facebook. I also like Sarah Palin. Liberals are scared to death of her for some reason. She may not be presidential material but she is a good, honest, no nonsense woman. Just the opposite of Hillary Clinton.
 
the book I am reading is One Nation, tells a lot about how he thinks and what he thinks would be good for the country, I read another one of his last year named America the beautiful.......
 
I remember mentioning before that Carson has been accused of plagiarism. These pols that have to get a book out to make a run should be careful about selecting who writes their book...
 
Ben Carson..I have his video, "Healing Hands." great movie. The things that he has done are nothing short of being miracles. You really need to watch the video, even if you don't like his politics. In the movie, he separates twins co-joined at the head that they actually "rehearsed" to do before the surgery. It was amazing. He has performed surgeries on children that allowed them to walk when told that they would never walk. I believe that he is now retired, but he was the head surgeon and department chairman of the Pediatrics Neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore.

I like how she just blurts out as well. I don't think she was prepared to take all the criticism she got when she was in the lime light several years ago. I don't follow her tho. I thought about reading her book.
Telling it like it is, is that such a bad thing? IMO, better than telling lies and hiding the real truth.
 
Ben Carson should be a preacher, not a president. http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/huh-ben-carson-strip-citizenship-non-citizens-who-vote

  • “Obamacare is really, I think, the worst thing that has happened in this nation since slavery,” Carson said at the Values Voter Summit last year. “It is slavery, in a way.”


  • “Read Mein Kampf, and read the works of Vladimir Lenin,” if you want to understand Obama’s plan for America, Carson said in a recent interview with Newsmax. Mein Kampf, of course, was the Nazi manifesto written by Adolf Hitler a decade before he took power.


  • America today is “very much like Nazi Germany,” Carson said in March. “You know, you had a government using its tools to intimidate the population. We now live in a society where people are afraid to say what they actually believe.”


  • If Democrats remain in control of the Senate, “there may be so much anarchy going on” in 2016 that elections can’t be held, Carson told Alan Colmes in September.


  • “I think most people when they finish that course, they’d be ready to go sign up for ISIS,” Carson said of an AP history curriculum that conservatives say is anti-American.


  • “What’s happening with the veterans is a gift from God,” Carson said earlier this year on Fox about the VA health care scandal, in which some vets waited over a year for hospital beds. Carson argued the scandal was welcome because it demonstrated the evils of big government running health care.



  • Carson lamented to WNC.com this summer that people he meets on the street don’t know about the Benghazi embassy attack controversy. ”And these people vote. That’s the sad thing,” he added.


In an interview with Sean Hannity, the former Johns Hopkins surgeon said, "Marriage is between a man and a woman. No group, be they gays, be they NAMBLA (Pedophiles), be they people who believe in bestiality, it doesn't matter what they are. They don't get to change the definition."

More things Carson has said. http://www.addictinginfo.org/2014/1...carson-doesnt-have-the-brain-to-be-president/

7. “Certainly there’s the potential because you have to recognize that we have a rapidly increasing national debt, a very unstable financial foundation, and you have all these things going on like the ISIS crisis that could very rapidly change things that are going on in our nation. And unless we begin to deal with these things in a comprehensive way and in a logical way there is no telling what could happen in just a couple of years.”~Ben Carson, telling Fox News that President Obama might declare martial law and cancel the 2016 Election so he can continue being president, September 2014.

8. “I think most people when they finish that course, they’d be ready to go sign up for ISIS.”
~Ben Carson, claiming the AP History curriculum will cause students who learn about civil disobedience in this country to join a violent terrorist group, September 2014.

9. “Anyone caught involved in voter fraud should be immediately deported and have his citizenship revoked.”
~Ben Carson, advocating for stripping non-citizens of their no-existant American citizenship if they are caught voting, November 2014. NOTE: quote was later removed from Carson’s WND column.

10. “So if there were a container of contaminated urine, and somehow it managed to find its way to someplace a lot of damage could be done. Someone comes up to a lab worker. He knows he’s got the urine. ‘How would you like to have a million dollars?’ … Such things have been known to happen.”
~Ben Carson, fearmongering over Ebola by saying it could be used a biological weapon even though infectious disease experts disagree, August 2014.


If I needed brain surgery, Dr. Ben Carson is the guy I would want performing the operation because his experience in the field of neurosurgery is nearly unmatched. But I would not want him as President of the United States.

The fact is, he has zero experience in government. At least President Obama had prior governing experience prior to winning his first term in office. He served as a state senator in Illinois for seven years and as a United States senator for three years, yet conservatives constantly gripe that Obama didn’t have enough experience to be president. By supporting Carson’s candidacy, conservatives would be committing hypocrisy.

Carson has no idea what it means to govern, and his consistent extremist rhetoric should disqualify him from ever being considered for a job as demanding and stressful as Commander-in-Chief.

You can’t bring up the Nazi card to describe political opponents, compare gay people to pedophiles, thank God for dead soldiers, and fearmonger about a virus in an effort to cause panic in the nation and think that makes you perfectly qualified to lead and unite the whole population of the United States.

Ben Carson is a fine neurosurgeon, but he would be a disastrous chief executive. These were just ten of his political quotes. Just imagine how many more we’ll be able to add to the list as Carson campaigns over the next two years.

Good? Honest? No Nonsense? Ask some of the folks at the party she crashed and made an ever bigger ass of herself (if that's possible).

OMG, you are hilarious;) Hurray for Alaska then. I just can't let one happen, and not acknowledge it, geez, what a waste that would be;)

Sometimes when I can't sleep
I count farts instead of sheep
