Ben Carson-isms, Just In Time for Halloween

what eye thynk:  In case you are thinking Ben Carson is a step up from Donald Trump, consider these "Ben Carson-isms."

1 - "Women who get abortions are like slaveholders.
2 - Obamacare is the worst thing since slavery.
3 - 'Hitler' could happen in the U.S. today.
4 - Jews could have prevented the Holocaust if they had guns.
5 - College campuses should be monitored for liberal political speech.
6 - Muslims should be disqualified from the presidency.
7 - There's a war on 'what's inside of women.'
8 - Being gay is a choice because prison turns people gay.
9 - There is no such thing as a war crime.
10 - Obama is depressing the economy to keep people on welfare.
11 - Obama signed immigration reform to bring in government-dependent voters.
12 - Congress should be able to remove judges for voting for marriage equality.
13 - Anarchy could cancel the 2016 election."


And if those aren't enough:


1 -"Evolution and the Big Bang theory are the work of the devil.
2 - Asked why victims of mass shootings don't just attack the gunman.
3 - Thinks that atheism is a religion.
4 - Says it's unconstitutional for courts to rule on the constitutionality of laws.
5 - Referred to President Obama as a psychopath because he looks great "like most psychopaths."

This is what happens when politicians try to out do each other for an evening news sound byte and nobody asks questions. Anything can be stated as true because someone, somewhere, will believe it--the more ridiculous the better.  Nothing is sacred.
