First the pyramid thing, then the stabbing, now this. Not a good week for the doc.
Hey. Worse comes to worse, you won't have a terrible time if you decide to retreat to the countryside for four years.
Sometimes you have to wonder how the USA is one of the most developed countries in the world, when the political system often appears full of complete clowns. It could be scarey how quickly progress could be made in a true democracy full of intelligent and honest politicians - or maybe the clowns are what keeps the fairground running. I doubt we will ever have the chance to find out.
Well, that's not a hard thing to imagine when you think about the US in terms of its fragmentation and bureaucracy. The insane politicians we hear about on the news aren't necessarily the ones making changes because they answer to constituency, special interests, and the like. They are honestly more like puppets these days.
And it just keeps getting funnier. Maybe he should try to stab the next journalist who questions him--kind of like an "I told you so."
Naaah. It's the most efficient method we have for winnowing the herd. Besides - there would be dire consequences. You are now aware that your vice president is an admitted plagiarist.
But at the same time he's still denying he lied. First it was CNN who after exhaustively interviewing 9 people who live in Detroit decided to call me a liar. Then it was POLITICO's turn to say I lied, though it was later retracted. What I have always said about the media is being proven for everyone to see.
Carson's comments read like a seventeen year old not really understanding the conversation he had with someone very important who knew nothing about a teenage kid he just met and fifty years later believing that conversation was somehow notable or relevant to his life. The conversation with General Westmoreland sounds like the conversation Dustin Hoffman had in The Graduate. The guy simply suggested plastics (West Point) was a good move, not roll out the welcome mat. I know one has to have an enormous ego to run for president, but Carson's seems bigger than most.
Not only that, but the guy seems to fit somewhere fairly close to autistic on the ASD spectrum. Below, I pulled something from the NIMH "A Parents Guide to Autism Spectrum Disorder": -Make little eye contact -Tend to look and listen less to people in their environment or fail to respond to other people -Do not readily seek to share their enjoyment of toys or activities by pointing or showing things to others -Respond unusually when others show anger, distress, or affection. I'm not saying that he fits in with emotionally unresponsive three or four-year olds, but comparative to other candidates Ben Carson fits the bill.
it's funny because the people you don't like need to be mentally ill
The script said to only reveal that you're a pathological liar after winning the presidency. Ya blew it.
