Patient of Dentist who might be responsible for spread of HIV and hepatitis on CNN....

Absolutely amazing how this guy spends the first 45 seconds telling how nice the office,staff and Dr.
were.. Wasn’t even going to express the horror of his situation until prompted by interviewer. WTF!!

I also wonder if anyone of the poor souls effected by this disaster realize that govt. does have a role in these type of situations. It might be interesting to know if any health inspectors in the area were furloughed because of various state cut backs...

So many theories on Why GWB invaded Iraq.

My opinion...

Not because of WMDs
Not because of the Smoking Gun(Nuclear Weapons )
Not because of the Oil.
Not because of global terror connections
Not because of his daddy being threatened

Simply because the economic interest boys (1%) wanted a war time president so that they could pass
every political economic plan they desired. This would be done under the guise of “If you don’t support our
President’s lead than you don’t support our troops and and the fight against tyranny”

Dress up Soldier Boy just loved the whole concept. For Fuck sake’s, he had the same mentality as we all
did when we played war with our air pumped rifles when we were 10 years old.. We just loved it all!

The Good Dr. for Pres? Repubs. love him but.....

From www rate mds.com

He has good reviews as well, but his bad ones are interesting. Very worried about ego and payment..
I have a feeling this guy has a lot of baggage.

Below is one of the reviews I pasted from the site.
The actual site is the link below the comment.


We went to see Dr. Carson and he didn't even take the time to order new MRIs. He looked at an old MRI that was 5 years old and said my daughter didn't have Chiari. All he did with the 5 minutes he had my daughter was complain about my insurance company and how he never gets paid. Never took the time to exam my daughter and told me that going to the Chiari center in NY was a waste of time. Well, we went to NY and they found my daughter definitely had Chiari. They ran all kinds of tests and found that she has no fluid behind the base of her brain. She has damage to her vega nerve which has now slowed her stomach down and heart issues. Great Doctor. NY told us that Carson was a media doctor and if a case didn't give him media time or wasn't clear cut, then he wasn't going to be bothered.

“Too Liberal” Ashley Judd?

I’m so fucking sick of the term “too liberal” on our side. Christ, can’t we understand that the answer to the term “too liberal” are Blue Dog Democrats.... How the hell is that working out for us?

It’s time we start stepping up and begin loosing the fear of screaming out, what we truly believe...
There has got to be a new beginning with Democrats and Progressives and the time for that is now!

Question to Tiger followers..

If the Golf God’s came to talk to Tiger and offered him a deal which would include enough victories to exceed Jack N. Major titles and Sam Snead’s pro titles both by one and then never having another victory!!!! would he take the deal? As he gets older the Majors are going to get tougher and tougher.you never know with injuries and other non foreseeable circumstances the future. He needs to be real healthy though...

YELP: Dr. Ben Carson: All I’m hearing is how brilliant and what a great Pediatric Surgon

he is... I’m certainly not saying that there are not good reviews of the Dr. as well.I just find his statements
on the little girl’s insurance very relevant and worth noting.

This is the guy that the wing nuts at CPAC rolled out. A Black physician with a noted reputation who
personally insulted the POTUS at a Washington event.. He is the new Herman Cain I guess and has hinted that he might be available to run for POTUS in 2016.


His scores out of 5.....
1 1 1 1 We went to see Dr. Carson and he didn't even take the time to order new MRIs. He looked at an old MRI that was 5 years old and said my daughter didn't have Chiari.
