... is what was being said back then.

In 2008, BHO can't possibly beat HRC.

Obummer was being touted as the future of the party in 2004, and his 2008 campaign pulled in a record $750 million in funding. The joke that is Bernie's campaign is nothing in comparison.

BHO was WAY BEHIND HRC, who looked unbeatable nearly all year, until Sep 2008.

At this point, I'd like to see a Fiorina/Carson ticket. Doesn't' matter which is P or VP. 2 smart non-politicians. Would be tough for any Democrat to beat.

how is Ben Carson smart? He legitimately thought Alan Greenspan was treasury secretary during the debate last week. I'd prefer a president who knows the difference between treasury secretary and federal reserve chairman.

Ok. Maybe he's dumb. I'd rather have him than most of the others though.

That's a mighty terrible packbedal there.

I really didn't think I needed to defend a neurosurgeon's brain power.

I know tons of doctors who are complete idiots when it comes to anything non-medical. It's a ridiculous notion that being accomplished in a single field suddenly makes you an expert in everything. That kind of hubris is exactly why he'd be a terrible pick.

he's stupid as

1) On whether being gay is a choice: "Because a lot of people who go into prison go into prison straight—and when they come out, they're gay. So, did something happen while they were in there? Ask yourself that question."

2) On political correctness: "I mean, [our society is] very much like Nazi Germany. And I know you're not supposed to say 'Nazi Germany,' but I don't care about political correctness. You know, you had a government using its tools to intimidate the population. We now live in a society where people are afraid to say what they actually believe."

3) On the IRS: "You know, we live in a Gestapo age, people don't realize it."

4) On Advanced Placement history class: "I think most people, when they finish that course, they'd be ready to go sign up for ISIS."

5) On veterans dying waiting for medical care from the Department of Veterans Affairs: "I think what's happening with the veterans is a gift from God to show us what happens when you take layers and layers of bureaucracy and place them between the patients and the health care provider. And if we can't get it right, with the relatively small number of veterans, how in the world are you going to do it with the entire population?"

6) On Obamacare: "You know, Obamacare is really, I think, the worst thing that has happened in this nation since slavery. And it is, in a way—it is slavery in a way because it is making all of us subservient to the government."

7) On Obama's appearance: When a colleague said the president "looks clean. Shirt's white. The tie. He looks elegant," Carson responded: "Like most psychopaths. That's why they're successful. That's the way they look. They all look great." He later said: "But he knows he's telling a lie! He's trying to sell what he thinks is not true! He's sitting there saying, 'These Americans are so stupid I can tell them anything.'"

8) On similarities between the Founding Fathers, who were "willing to die for what they believed," and ISIS: "They've [ISIS] got the wrong philosophy, but they're willing to die for what they believe, while we're busily giving away every value and every belief for the sake of political correctness."

9) On the importance of the GOP winning the Senate in 2014: In August, Carson said he couldn't be sure "there will even be an election in 2016" if Republicans didn't go on to win that fall. (His wife also said they were keeping their son's Australian passport handy if the election didn't go their way.)

Thanks for the link.

So at this time in 2007, HRC was up on BHO 49-21. Yet this time around she is a shoe-in for the nomination? Re s like CN have zero intellectual consistency.

I hope this email thing totally s her over. Do not want her anywhere near the WH considering her hawkish, warmongering foreign policy and blanket free pass to Israel no matter how bad their infanticide gets.

Bernie sanders is a false prophet to you leftists. Israel just does what they have to do, I applaud them in ways. Every time I see a sandn!gger or a rag on someone's head I just see red. They are the enemies of western civilization.
