What are you, 12? Stop putting words in other people’s mouths.
The reason why our Russian relations have gone badly is because Putin knows Obama means nothing he says. How do you feel about Russian bombers in our air defense zones? Russians reclaiming eastern Europe?
I am glad Putin is going after ISIS, but only a fool believes here is anything but Putin’s interests at play in that action. We will ultimately regret Hussein ceding half the world to whoever steps in.
But Sir,But Sir,Let me ask another stupid question.Carson is right,we are smart enough to know not to bring them over because of history and they don’t like us.Also that’s a great point.They don’t like us.
I think you hit the nail on the head.
“I, for one, see NO reason to throw thousands of lives away for a war with Russia (and China) right now.”
Don’t worry, give it time.
I agree, Carson said nothing crazy or loony. He was rational. Not bad answers at all. Good explanation of brains, obviously the left’s brain resembles that of an animal not a conservatives.
Dr. Carson has an intellect far more advanced than most of the people participating in this thread and yet here they are making pronouncements as to who is not “POTUS material” when the oath of office won’t be taken again for another 14 months! It’s astounding that you have people assuming the worst when they have not the intellectual capacity to follow what somebody like Carson means when he speaks or writes for that matter. There is no time for sock puppets, filmstrips or animated video tutorials, so stop imagining that you know anything for sure.
Carson supports amnesty, gun control, TPP and statehood for Puerto Rico. I know all I need to know.
Most of the people on this forum are supporting a candidate whose intellect exceeds Carson’s, so, no, we are not dazzled when he makes his little forays into irrelevance because he has no depth on the subject he was asked about.
I fully realize that Putin is acting only in his own interest. Obama has already ceded world leadership to Putin. Carson was talking about shooting down Russian planes in airspace they have been given permission to fly by Syria.
Carson is trying to act tough by foolishly suggesting we shoot down Russian planes in airspace Syria has given them permission to fly in.
This is the same guy who did not believe we should have had any military response to 9/11.
Carson is totally out of his depth when it comes to national security and foreign policy. He has enough problems already by supporting amnesty, gun control and TPP.
I know from experience that a candidate’s positions can and do change as the direct result of current events having shaped them and as of right now, there are an awful lot of events that we will eventually come to know as being current between now and Election Day, 2016.
He generally does do quite well... the term “Nutter” is a word that is largely used to demean Christians. So any time you see that word being used to describe someone, you can pretty well guess that person is a Christian. This piece is more about bigotry toward Christianity than it is about the competence of a person to run for POTUS.
I keep getting a feeling that someone wants us in conflict with Russia.
Does it change Carson’s words? Doe sit change Carson’s dangerous positions? Does it make him a Conservative? His policies say he is more of a Democrat or GOPe.
I don’t support amnesty, gun control, or TPP, but if you do, I understand why Carson is your guy.
Syria has given Russia permission to fly in their airspace. If we shoot down Russian planes, we are not being dragged into a shooting war with Russia, we are needlessly starting a war with them.
If this gets people disinterested in, what is basically, “our” proposed counter to the CURRENT unqualified, inexperienced know-nothing who is also black (which is what really got him elected), well, that works for me. I’m done defending the defensible just because it’s defensible.
The man is, I’m sure, a great Christian man but he’s not president material flat out. It would be a disaster if he were elected. So whatever tanks him now is fine with me. I. Don’t. Care.
It’s time to dump the Doc.
I am suspicious of the motivations behind those calling for a “no fly zone”. What right do we have to engage or shoot down Russian planes when Syria has given them permission to fly in their air space?
Nice to hear from someone who gets it! Thanks!
Can’t trust any of them.
Carson is not 'my guy' but I don't take the word of a liar either.
I posted an article that was 95% transcript from a Carson interview. I don’t see how that is “lying”.
