At least Joe Biden is respected around the world and will bring class and honor back to the White House.

I was about to respond to the first part, but then I read this. Joe Biden is a world renowned hero while a guy that's revolutioned the field of pediatric neurosurgery is a just some moron.

:ez-roll:

Me too, but unfortunately Joe Biden is the alternative option instead.

A pleasant comment made to Obama.

In 2008, Joe Biden tried to temper fears that Barack Obama was in favor of gun control, by saying, "I guarantee you Barack Obama ain’t taking my shotguns, so don’t buy that malarkey. Don’t buy that malarkey. They’re going to start peddling that to you."


Biden said he owns "two guns" and that "if [Obama] tries to fool with my Beretta, he’s got a problem. I like that little over and under, you know? I’m not bad with it. So give me a break. Give me a break," according to an ABC report from the time.

How do you know whom Biden will choose for his cabinet?

Also, LOL at you calling a surgeon a moron in his field.

Biden is the definition of a career politician. He hasn't accomplished anything except getting reelected. There are tons of videos going around of all the lies and racist things he has done and how he has flip flopped. But you don't see those on the news for some reason....

I haven't figured out Ben Carson, he must be some kind of savant at surgery, because when you hear him talk he says the dumbest things ever.

How do I know who Biden will choose? Because he surrounds himself with smart, capable people, not nimrods like Jared Kushner.

 

[Eielson]

Sure he was a great surgeon but he says some of the dumbest things I ever heard, like that the Egyptian pyramids were used to store grain. And why is a surgeon the Secretary of HUD, he knows nothing about that field that I can ascertain.

Wow. Strong argument. You've completely negated his entire life's work with that one.

:ez-roll:

Why would Ben Carson think that the pyramids were used to store grain? I think he knows his field, and only his field, but he's an idiot when talking about any other subject.

Your adulation for Ben Carson is something. I remember when you said surgeons were stupid.

Should I post his top 50 stupidest quotes?

you are just a racist....

That is how this works right? If you say something negative about a person of color, you are a racist. Oh wait, that is only if republicans do it

1. it doesnt matter who Biden chooses for his cabinet. what he WON'T do is intentionally choose idiots to torpedo the department in question like it's all some big joke. Wanna argue about this? Just look at what he's doing to Fauci right now as he simultaneously puts up quotes from CHUCK WOOLERY as his expert in response.

2. thanks to this thread I have learned that doctors can be complete idiots also.

3. of course he's had varying stands in DC over the years. Culture changes and rare is the guy who has been consistent the whole time (ahem Bernie is an exception). If you're representing the public and the public perception changes then you change as well generally. When I worked at Senator Nickles office in the early 80's he was actually anti-guns. times change.

4. why is everything some big conspiracy to you?

Doesn't "Dr. Death" have enough problems as is.

Obama once said he has visited 57 states, so apparently he doesn't even know his field. Is that how this works?

Yup, I've said it. I've also said everything associated with UT is stupid, but believe it or not, I don't actually mean it literally. You don't seem to understand the dynamics of the medical field very well.

But only if they're on opposite sides of the political aisle!

You just summed up the issues with politics.

4. why is everything some big conspiracy to you?

I don't think it is a conspiracy to say that politicians lie to get elected and flip flop to get elected.

I want a candidate that says what he really believes and sticks to it

Its funny that you don't give Trump the benefit of the doubt in regards to changing views over time.

apparently you dont understand those dynamics either. please opine again about how Houston is gonna be just fine and those numbers are all normal. I just love that story! So hopeful and ill-educated.

Ohio has done a worse job than Florida to date.

Please reread what I said and come back if you continue to have issues with comprehension. What I said still stands.

I still think the Ohio governor is doing a better job. not sure how that relates to this.

I'll go back and reread your little bs as soon as I drudge through these 43 pages of obits that say you were wr-r-r-rong.

Sure Jan, I don't understand the dynamics of the medical field.

You said it, why don't you own it? You could say, "Yeah most surgeons are stupid, but Carson is super-smart." Then I would say, "Okay, fair enough."

Also the Obama thing is funny, you guys always go back to that one time he misspoke. He didn't get entire concepts wrong and prove he's ignorant of entire topics,like Ben Carson, he misspoke once and you hang your hat on that.

 

[coolm]

But only if they're on opposite sides of the political aisle!

nope. the doctors on this side don't seem to talk out their ass as much regarding procedures they have no clue about like decon, cleanliness protocols, and bio-hazard releases.

 

[Sooner04]

I looked it up. Biden's been in Washington since 1973. Achievements? Anybody?

It'll be interesting to see his Cabinet. Trump's is littered with crony-ism. I do not get the Ben Carson hate. But anybody associated with Trump gets both barrels from the left, I suppose.
