So let's see,
Carson rails against public assistance, but was a benefit of it in almost every way from housing assistance to public schools to food stamps to free medical stuff to college grants.
He compares gay marriage to bestiality and pedophilia.
He rails against Planned Parenthood, despite having performed research on fetal tissue himself in the 90s.
Yep, sounds like a perfect GOP candidate - hate mongering hypocritical clown. He'll fit right in the with the Herman Cains, Michelle Bachmans, Rick Santorums, AquadBUddha Pauls, and the rest of their nutcase clowncar calvacade.

If The Donald is elected president, the wall between Mexico and the US won't be the only wall constructed during the Trump presidency.
Canada will also build a wall along its entire border, just to keep out the mass migration of Americans trying to flee Trump insanity.

That is funny.
Just like Hillary Clinton coming out against abuse of women, domestic violence, and rape.

Ben Carsons Health savings account , his answer to the ACA , won't work..But that doesn't matter because he's a Dr. and he's smarter than you..You'd think an educated person could come up with something more original than a health savings account...What kind of tool thinks a minimum wage worker is going to have any money left over from their pay check to put into a health saving account...Hit the eject button and flush this clown...besides , he ain't white...

Stop Expecting Evangelicals To Reject Trump Because He's Not Much Of A Christian (Crooks and Liars)
".....So they [evangelicals] don't really care about whether a candidate or elected official has lived in accordance with their values. What they want is a candidate or elected official who will use their values (or, frankly, use anything) as a club to beat the people they don't like -- Democrats, liberals, immigrants, Muslims.
".....Trump is attacking immigrants, insulting women, and generally being an obnoxious, ignorant boor whose attempts to BS his way through questions (about his faith and other subjects, including the details of his policies) are so easy to see through that we can't believe he's getting away with them. And yet he is. He's getting away with them in large part because the right can see he's left us angry and speechless.
But don't evangelicals care about God and faith? I'm not sure white right-wing Evangelicals in America really do care all that much. For many of them, Christianity is mostly a club they use to beat Godless liberals, the less fortunate, and non-Christians. What the faith seems to affirm for them more than anything else is the sense that humanity is divided into the good and the purely evil, and life's main task is to sort everyone into these two categories, and render appropriate punishments on the latter. This worldview isn't limited to God's judgment in the afterlife -- it extends to life on earth, which is why right-wing Evangelicals despise government efforts to aid anyone other than themselves and their kind (the "deserving").
So, in a way, Trump is embodying religion as they understand it when he threatens to round up and wall out immigrants, or bomb Muslims and seize Middle Eastern oil. He's taking things from the undeserving and giving them to the deserving. Isn't that what Christian conservatives think Jesus wants?"

From the Abrahamic perspective, the meaning of life
Evangelicals. Christianity. Isis. Islam.

and speaking of The Donald
This is the first time since July that Trump isn’t leading in first.
Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump and Ben Carson are tied for first place among likely Iowa Republican caucus-goers, according to a new poll conducted by Monmouth University.
Voters were asked who they would support if the presidential caucus were to be held today. Trump and Carson each received 23% of the votes, Trump rising 10 points from a July poll and Carson rising 15 points.
Former HP chief executive Carly Fiorina also received a significant boost to 10%, an escalation of 7 points since the last poll, while Scott Walker saw a steep decline of 15 points, bringing him to 7%.
The poll also measured voters’ commitment to their current opinion. 12% said they were completely decided on who they’ll vote for, and 42% said that they had a strong preference but could change their mind. 47% either had a slight preference or were completely undecided. Trump’s supporters tended to be more steadfast in their opinions than Carson’s.
Donald Trump, president and chief executive of Trump Organization Inc. and 2016 Republican presidential candidate,

no, Cragman
it is not about someone having a different opinion from your own
it IS about bigotry, and that is exactly what the political party that you support with your
vote is all about
bigotry, damn near every day in the press one of your "leaders' is saying stupid racist
things about Mexicans, Asians, Blacks
saying stupid and bigoted things about women
saying bigoted things about people who prefer to be with people the same sex as them
and that is not a simple "difference of opinion"
what that IS is 13th century dumb assness, it is ignorant and it is flat out wrong
