    You don't think the insurance companies are making profits?

    what is the definition of "running your own life" though? If there is a rule about not allowing a person to sell lemonade on public property without a permit (in order to keep the amount of litter, and the number of vendors from becoming detrimental to the area), some would say that in no way is an impediment to their life, and others cry from the rooftops and decry that sort of regulation.

    Yes, it is ironic. The more Dr. Carson talks about being a slave to government, the more Dr. Carson shows he is a slave to RW propaganda.

    Reduction to absurdity is a logical fallacy.

    I see you doubled down on it.. Its racism.. Its one of the wonderful things about you being a Progressive. Progressives can think whatever racist thought they want and they dont see it because they are to busy calling others racism... That is the true irony ;)

    It cant be a brilliant ( Black) mind is conservative! It must be he is a slave to propaganda! /rolls eyes... You are politely calling him an Uncle Tom why not just be honest about it?

    Did you know, opposing anything Ben Carson says is racist? Be forewarned.

    An absolutely racist statements. But then again, is what Democrats famous for - racist remarks and not liking black people.

    It is un-American and up patriotic to make fun of Ben Carson and black people in general. There's no place here for racist remarks.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Another racist post. What is it with you Democrats hating blacks?

    - - - Updated - - -

    You only saying he should be more honest because he's black. Fact.

    It is up patriotic to question and otherwise critique Dr. Carson. The only reason you do it is because he's black. Very racist.

    No it's not. First off, Marxism has never been strong in the US. Second, if it was marxist there wouldn't have been any elections at all. Yes there were military districts, and the forced passing of amendments but seeing as how in the end that didn't really matter, it's not that much of a point. In fact in the end the south was able to end reconstruction with the election Rutherford B Hayes. Economic subjugation? Not really. If that was the case, the "40 acres and a mule" that the Radicals wanted would have been a reality. Instead sharecropping sprung up.

    :wink:

    The amount of unamerican unpatriotic nonsense that is seeming prevading the hard right these days is not funny. Its rather pathetic irony highlighting how intellectually bankrupt some of those loonies actually are.
    Of course the far left is equally as loonie, but for some reason seem to understand to a much higher degree exactly what the constitution actually says.

    wasn't talking about him. I was addressing the Unpatriotic theme of dutch's comment. You follow?

    - - - Updated - - -

    well, considering the right seems to have granted themselves unlimited license to make fun of, verbally abuse and make racist remarks about the democratic president and have been doing so since before his first election, your whinging is a bit hypocritical.

    Just stating it is racism does not make it true. Stating an analogy using the same definition of "being a slave" that Dr Carson is using ins' racism either. But nice post showing your double standard

    No double standard at all.. You proclaim he is lead by right wing propaganda accusing him of not having a mind of his own. While implying he cant be conservative because he is black.. Your game is obvious and old dont try to project it onto me.

    So critiquing Dr Carson should be more honest is being un-American?

    You are still missing the point. The point is that as long as Dr Carson reads and defends RW propaganda, such as supporting/believing/helping the government is like being a slave or other such nonsense, you will support him. But the moment that Dr. Carson says something that you do not agree with, you and all the "conservatives," or should I say white nationalist extremists, will turn on him the same way you turned on Gen Powell. And that is the sad, disturbing truth.

    You are all over the place. Carson is a Conservative of course he speaks like a *gasp* Conservative. If anyone says something i disagree with i *gasp* disagree with them. You see Independents are not lemmings like Progressives are. You seem to have an issue understanding this so instead of facing self truths you project it to others.

    I am not a "white nationalist extremists" and its sad you are left with nothing but personal attacks. THAT is the sad disturbing truth.

    No. Plainly, you're getting a bit of your own medicine. Stop being racist about Dr. Carson, it's racist.

    Yes. Criticizing Dr. Carson is UnAmerican, un patriotic and extremely racist. Cease and desist.

    oh really? I guess you missed the whole birther thing. I guess you weren't around for this:

    [​IMG]

    I guess you've missed the "der fuhrer", america hater, the plethora of stupid/dumb remarks, the muslim remarks, the marxist remarks.

    If you don't recall any of that, then I guess you could say there was no support, but most people are fully aware of the bullcrap slung by the right. Maybe one day you'll catch up.

    No plainly I didnt mention his colour at all. My comments were not racist in the slightest, but I am not surprised that you would want to interpret them as such, since his remarks were completely over the top stupid.

    I believe debt and victim mentality is a form of slavery and the black community is in bondage for it.
