But just look at how much more democratic and peaceful the middle east is now.

That sort of psychosis is transmitted to conservos through hate radio and Fox "news." They swallow it whole then come to message boards like this one to repeat what they've been told.
Is that why you've been a big critic of this administration staying there? oh wait

What particular war are you talking about? I didn't name a specific one.

Besides, even IF a war is necessary, to say an attempt at reforming healthcare in the country is worse than the damages inflicted by a war is IMO a completely asinine statement.

You claim to have supplied facts. To validate Carson's statement of something being the 'worst' you'd have to supply facts about every other comparable circumstance, supplying only $$$ figures of Obamacare validates nothing but your opposition to Obamacare.

"Doctor" Carson…. you mean the Seventh Day Adventist 'winger who believes in Creationism (aka, the "Fred Flintstone Theory"), and thinks gay marriage is a Marxist plot to overthrow the U.S.?

Geez, where did he learn medicine… by mail order?!!

The American Conservative: Ben Carson, Creationist

Right back at ya!

You're allowed the inane delusion that whining about Obamcare makes it the worst thing to happen to the country since slavery too.

Well, IMO, just to mention one instance, if you along with Carson consider draining national wealth while killing 58,000+ young Americans plus causing who knows how many more to suffer life-altering injuries while fighting an asinine, unnecessary war of choice in Vietnam that was of no benefit to the country to be worse than attempting healthcare reform I can only hope that neither of you are ever remotely close to the reins of power.
