Sounds like he’s doing no harm to himself or others.

Good on him for not letting the press set him up.

Why can’t these idiots just say “Trump is going to say what he’s going to say. I have no idea how he means it and it’s not important to me. What’s important is.....”

Carson is a nice guy but Trump’s response was appropriate give the context. At least in my opinion it was. I am tired of weak, scaredy-cat leaders.

they certainly would not be the kinds of things that I would engage in

That is a good answer from Carson. He didn't condemn Trump and he didn't let himself get pulled into the specifics.

I really wish our candidates would confront the press on why they are being asked to comment on another politician's comments. The Democrats are never asked to comment on another Democrat's comments.

“I haven’t heard his specific comments but I’ve heard about them. and they certainly would not be the kinds of things that I would engage in.”

Heard about them from whom? The Media?

What’s lost in all this is Rosie’s comments.

Haven’t heard one bad word about her.

She Whoopie, any other Leftist have a get out of jail free card when it comes to stuff like this.

They egg on our folks, and when our folks respond, our folks are the problem.

I have come under a bit of conviction over this myself.

Nothing to do with Trump, just "coincidence" (God doesn't have coincidences, does he?), but my Bible study this weekend includes this from the text of Matthew:

“Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad, for the tree is known by its fruit. You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. The good person out of his good treasure brings forth good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure brings forth evil. I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

Okay, so look: I am not advocating for Political Correctness. Trump is right about that kind of thing, in my opinion. But Carson, as I understand him, is also right.

Having a manner that is polite but bold in speaking the truth is appropro.

Dr. Ben Carson boldly but politely spoke to the truth to Obama's face about the DISASTER of Obamacare.

Video: Dr. Benjamin Carson's Amazing Speech at the National Prayer Breakfast with Obama Present

I think that is a better way to go.

“CARSON ON TRUMP: SAYING MEAN THINGS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH POLITICAL CORRECTNESS”

Yes, but it works both ways.

There’s a point you run out of cheeks to turn.

There are times you have to fight fire with fire.

What bothers me is when people say, you know, you can’t say this word, you can’t say this phrase, you can’t even think that, you can’t express this.

Carson is right. That is what PC is about not ad-hominem attacks.

Ben is very nice man. Niceness gets you nowhere in politics.
