Why was Ben Carson not smart enough to understand what vetting is?

Isnt this vetting ?

I wonder, will we see a production Corvette with 1000hp before we die?

I mean, it's only 3x more than most 18wheelers, is that too much?

 

Crazy people are scary, especially when they go on about attacking people with hammers and knives

Jesus, think if he'd had a gun.

 

The biggest change isn't Trump or Carson, It's That Republicans Are Becoming The Anti-Cronyism Party.

Subsidies, bailouts, tax complexity and protective regulations in general tend to tilt the playing field towards the large and politically connected. When Republicans note this, they risk upsetting some of their friends on K Street and in the boardrooms of those large firms, but they also begin to provide the moral defense for free enterprise. Free enterprise is fair, and it maximizes wealth in the economy. Crony capitalism is immoral, it corrupts both politics and business, and it robs from the rest of the economy to enrich insiders.

And as Fiorina points out time after time, no politician in recent memory is as caught up in cronyism as Hillary Clinton.

The Republican grassroots are all-in for this, but the leadership, well, we’ll see. . . .

What about Ben Carson's investment with Alfonso A. Costa?

Are you sure Ben Carson is the guy to steer the party away from cronyism?

 

As a narcissist, and a pathological liar, he doesn't think about the consequences of getting found out. I read an interview his mother, Sonya, gave to the Detroit Free Press in which she said that when she was first married, she lived in a high-class neighborhood, and a full-length mink coat, had diamonds on her fingers, and flowers in all her hats. I think this family would make a good case study for the inherency of pathological lying.

 

Carson should have his gun rights taken away from him. He makes a good case for gun control in the sense that potential gun owners should be vetted before they are allowed to purchase guns. What he wrote about himself in his book is grounds to deny him a gun. Crazy people should not be allowed to own guns.

 

This lib isn't scared. This lib just thinks that the GOP can do better.

I would have said the same thing about Carson when he was a Democrat. Carson isn't cut out for federal politics. McStabby has been proven to have little comprehension of economic issues, social policy, history, and many other domains that a good leader should be acquainted with. His latest pile of bizarre lies makes him completely unqualified for any position of trust. He's also the ultimate beta who has no personality, is too soft spoken, and is incredulous with his continually, quickly changing stances.

 

Have I ever ignored facts? Of course. No one contemplates every "fact" in their thought processes. I try to incorporate only the relevant ones in forming an opinion.

Do I recognize that there are some who form their opinions with race as a factor? Of course. To pretend otherwise would be irrational.

 

Have you ever accused someone if using race as a factor without fact basis?

 

Those "Libs" in your head may be succumbing to the vapours but, apparently, whoever you imagine them to be must still wield enough power to get such influential GOP authorities as Trump and the Wall Street Journal to expose the political neophyte:

The Great Flatu compares Benny Bones to a child molester, according to extreme rightist Breitbart:

and the WSJ has been relentless is outing him:

Those damned "Libs" are everywhere!

 

"McStabby" LOL.

 

Racist attitudes are seldom overtly and unambiguously declared - as in the cases of neo-nazis and white supremacists who have proclaimed their support for and endorsement of Trump.

If you can honestly produce any instance of my labeling anyone else a racist, please do so.

 

Yes, he is black; but that does not excuse him from his incessant lying, and his affiliations with sleaze balls like Alfonsa Costa, and the people at Mannetech.

 

Kind of weird too, that the WSJ is ousting him; because Rupert Murdoch, the owner of the WSJ, said not to long ago that Ben would make a good president. Of course Rupert is as senile as all get out.

 

I'm pretty sure people who start threads and babble about Dr. Ben's intelligence are the ones who need to have their 'smarts' questioned.

 

Well do you believe conservatives in general dislike obama because he is half black or do you believe it is because of his policies?

 

You'd have to ignore reality to believe that. Carson routinely displays the most fundamental ignorance of anything having to do with the job he's running for.

He speaks pablum about God and the Constitution, and can't answer any serious question about poltics or policy. All he does is wave his "gifted hands" in front of his face.

Being a brilliant neurosurgeon makes you a skilled practitioner of a highly specialized skill. It does not require managerial ability, or the ability to lead or pursuade others. Carson is used to giving instructions, not negotiating. He is clearly convinced of his own brilliance. It shows every time he opens his mouth.

I don't hate the guy. I just think he should stick to peddling books and working the dinner speaker circuit.

He would be hopelessly lost as President of the United States. He knows nothing about government.

 

It may have slipped Rupe's mind that he had bought the WSJ:

O, that naughty "liberal media!" - Newsmax, Breitbart, The Blaze, Fox, etc., etc., etc. ALL questioning Benny's assorted tales!

 

Wow lefties are super literal and whiney today.

 

Since his policies - such as nationalizing RomneyCare - only compelled a minority of TP types to mice around with photoshopped African With Doctor images and engage in racist comments, I would assume his skin colour is not the primary factor in his critics' continually whinging about the fellow who was twice elected president with a popular majority and who consistently maintains mediocre approval figures.

Pretending his Black heritage is the driving force in their relentless disparagements would be as foolish as suggesting that racism plays no part whatsoever in the rabid opposition to him.

I would never accuse any individual of being a racist, unless he exhibits unmistakable, overt signs - such as the avowed neo-nazis and white supremacists endorsing and supporting Trump.

 

I'll say! Here's another whopper...

 

Only a self-admitted conservative has posted on this thread that, "Why do people keep using code words to insult Ben Carson? We all know what "not smart enough" really means. It means black."

Despite the arrogant presumption of imposing his personal interpretation upon everyone - what "We all know" - he has informed us of what it means to him, and there is no reason to doubt him.

Personally, I do not deem Benny's intelligence at issue. His inexperience, ignorance, and inconsistencies are - in particular, his denial of his long-standing relationship with a discredited placebo marketer and hypocritical defence of a Medicare defrauder pal.

Right-wing media has focused upon such troubling matters:

 

char·ac·ter as·sas·si·na·tion



noun

noun: character assassination; plural noun: character assassinations




the malicious and unjustified harming of a person's good reputation.


vet1


/vet/


verb

gerund or present participle: vetting




make a careful and critical examination of (something).
"proposals for vetting large takeover bids"


synonyms: check, examine, scrutinize, investigate, inspect, look over, screen, assess, evaluate, appraise; informalcheck out
"press releases are vetted by an executive council"

 

You consider a politician to be suspect for potential cronyism in office, if they engage in private investment as an individual?

So I should vote for Hillary who destroyed Libya, sold the office of Secretary of State, and stood by the caskets of dead Americans, looked into the eyes of their grieving families and then lied her ass off?

Yeah, that makes loads of sense.
