Yes, sure was classy of him to say "I won, elections have consequences", call out the Supreme Court on a decision in the SOTU address with them sitting right there, tell a Russian that he'd be "more flexible after the election", call Republicans the "enemy" on TV, tell the world America isn't exceptional, etc. Obama is classier? Hogwash.
Fox News talking points much?
Do I have to start on the infamous Republican Joe Wilson "You Lie!!" shout in the middle of a congress meeting, the GOP "secret meeting" to hold the country hostage and disrupt the Obama presidency before he was inaugurated, the McConnell "highest priority is to make Obama a one term president" speech, the Tea Party "birther" craziness, etc etc .. there is literally tons of material of GOP led insanity against Obama, but I will just stop there and not embarrass you further.
Who is Ben Carson?
This is a hypothetical question, because I learned a little about the man here, but it's the question most Americans are going to ask.
So he was on Fox. Big deal.
I think this discussion is very premature, since Dr. Carson apparently has done nothing of any consequence politically and has made no political announcements.
I really like him. I've followed his story for years, way before the prayer breakfast. I actually posted his story on these boards a couple of times over the years. I'm even more impressed with his mother. She is the one who truly shows that there are no limits in America for those who are willing to try.
She looked around the houses of the successful people whose houses she cleaned and realized that they were filled with books, so she decided to make reading a priority for her children. That's what smart, successful people do- they copy the habits of others who have achieved success. An illiterate maid with a 3rd grade education was smart enough to realize that, and she changed her family's tree forever. I wish I could vote for her!

Hmm..Let's look at the facts.
-know little to nothing about him
-Americans have questions
-he was on TV
-he's done nothing of consequence politically
He's just looking for a spot on Fox News, hence the numerous appearances on Hannity.
Carson already admitted he was looking to provoke Obama at the National PRAYER breakfast ... a bait Obama smartly didn't take and just thanked Carson for his speech instead and moved on:
I appreciate Carson's professional success and work, but Obama is just way classier than Carson.
Looks like someone dozed off and missed 3/4 of the speech.
0bama definitely took the bait. Just because he didn't jump up and down and scream 'unfair' doesn't mean he didn't react.
He reacted, alright. In his infamous, disgusting way.

Honey.........the only person you're embarrassing is yourself. You appear to be paying attention about .01% of the time.

He has ghetto class. Some people think that's cool.
