Or maybe we should give him some time before we anoint him, as has been the case with some conservatives lately. We need to learn to vet these people.
“Dr. Carson is just like the others (Christie and Brown come immediately to mind) that certain Freepers are so anxious to support in the beginning, without knowing a lot about them.”
I agree. I don’t understand the need for cult-of-personality on the “conservative” side. But it’s there. There were brainless Bushbots all over FR in the early days of his presidency.
You saw it in the Christie cultists also (Ann Coulter, I’m looking at you)...
Remember “Arnold for President””Colon Powell for President””Condi for President,” all that mindless idiocy.
Try to form an intelligent thought, people.
I have an idea. Let’s vet these candidates. It could keep you from looking like a complete imbecile later.
If you listen to Glen Beck’s video interview with him you’ll understand what he’s saying is true. There are some people (psychopaths, schizo’s, et al) who shouldn’t have access to guns.
Can you say “jumped the shark!”
It's already happening to vets in the VA system. Do you trust your personal medical records to Obama’s people? And, show me where some silly law in a book somewhere, that has actually prevented a crazy from getting a weapon to do nefarious deeds.
The largest mass murder [45 KIA, 58 WIA] in U.S. history was not done by a crazed gunman; it was done by Andrew P. Kehoe who used dynamite and flammable liquid. His reasons were (1) revenge for a defeat in the local elections and (2) personal (sick wife) and financial difficulties (farm in foreclosure). He blew up the Bath Consolidated School in Clinton County, MI. Kehoe had murdered his wife and burned his farm before attacking the school. As responders were attempting rescue of survivors and put out fires, Kehoe detonated his truck loaded with explosives at the site of his first attack.

Who is the most thoroughly vetted potential candidate out there? Who has had the MSM digging through their every communication? Who has beaten down numerous bogus accusations of ethical offenses? Who has stood up to all the left has been able to throw? Who was largely responsible for the House gains in 2010? Who has actual executive experience running a large and diverse state?
Come on, people. This is not brain surgery. You know who I’m talking about.
