This is what everyone is talking about. Just look at Obama's face.

I'm not a liberal. But I guess anyone who doesn't fall for the right wing polarization on EVERY single issue dealing with EVERY single portion of government under Obama = liberal to you.

FWIW, based on your posts, I don't even view you as a conservative. It would be an insult to conservatives to group you together.

Now that we know the IRS has engaged in criminal activity, Harry Reid needs to be investigated for the source of his claim that Romney avoided paying taxes. Want to be bet the IRS whispered that info into Harry's ear.

Wonder which prison Harry will spend his final days.

We will have to convict him to find out

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

I enjoyed Dr. Carson's speech as well.

I don't like that the right is using him via right-wing media though in order to arm themselves further in their hatred for Obama.

If anything, I see Dr. Carson as critical of both Dems and Republicans in that speech. He is critical of government period in that speech and many people agree with him, as do I.

I don't agree with him in regards to his simplification on healthcare solutions - having everyone save money their entire lives in an HSA to cover medical costs - because people who are upper middle class could never save enough to treat cancer or a debilitating car accident and I think that that portion was very simplistic and unrealistic in nature.

But on the whole, it was a great speech and very uplifting. He and his wife do wonderful things for education of talented, poorer youths.

Lessee...Dr Carson pretty much publicly spanked Obama at that breakfast. They knew he was going to. What does a dictator do to his opposition? Dr Carson could have had an auto accident, committed suicide or gotten shot somewhere but that would have been far too conspicuous.
The logical choice is to rummage through his laundry and see what they find. He will probably get audited every year until Obama is out of office and will be lucky if DHS agents don't kick in his door to search his house for some reason.
Members of Seal team 6 have been found dead is unusual circumstances and most were killed in Afghanistan while in some hooptie helicopter.

They had some knowledge of something that had to be silenced. Strange how all of them are dead.
Funny how dictators work, right?

Another Obamaspiracy for conservatives to obsess over.

conservatives continue to drift further and further away from reality.

It's clear that you do not understand the term "socialism".

Not surprising. The Fuhrer does not tolerate dissention.

We are certainly in the most oppressive and lawless administration in US history. Obama makes Grant and Harding look like Boy Scouts.

A curious coincidence, made all the more believable because of the shenanigans that the IRS has been pulling the past few years.
