Conan: Ben Carson Wants to ‘Go Back to The Way Things Were 200 Years Ago’

05.05.2015 | Alicia Powe | 2
 
Pediatric Neurosurgeon and Tea Party favorite Ben Carson officially threw his hat into the 2016 presidential race on Monday and the left has since had a field day smearing him for being African American and conservative.

Conan O’Brien used the occasion of Carson’s announcement to mock Carson’s conservative ideology on his late night TBS program.

“As a neurosurgeon, who’s also a member of the Tea Party, Carson’s specialty is removing that part of the brain that believes in climate change,” O’Brien joked.

O’Brien claimed Carson wants to return America to the Pre-Civil War era (you know, back to the days when Democrats fought abolition and the Civil War to keep blacks enslaved, just before Dems formed the KKK and then passed Jim Crow laws).

He is “an African-American and also a member of the Tea Party,” Conan said, “Yeah, making him the only African-American who wants to go back to the way things were 200 years ago.”

“Why can’t we get back to those days?” the host added.

Good thing Conan's child never needed Dr. Carson's expertise, then, I guess.

Carson doesn't impress me much. He's a soft spoken guy that merely repeats what others have said for years.

Having too many on the stage deducts from having enough time to listen to the viable candidates.

This has exposed O'Brien as an Ivy League, racist, bigot, hypocrite.  How dare he speak of a black man that way?  Doesn't he understand liberals are so much more compassionate and tolerant? :whistle:

Conan: other comedians love him; the rest of America? Not so much.

How'd The Tonight Show gig work out, again?  :smokin:

What does believing in man-made climate change have to do with going back 200 years?

Sounds to me like he could use a little brain surgery......   :smokin:
Character still matters.  It always matters.

I wear a mask as an exercise in liberty and love for others.  To see it as an infringement of liberty is to entirely miss the point.  Be kind.

Use the time God is giving us to seek His will and feel His presence.

I'm not so sure about that. It's just possible he might be able to get this country talking about some things it has needed to talk about for a long time now! Might even get some folks off the plantation!
