| The Five kicked off their Fox News show today with a look at Dr. Benjamin Carson, the pediatric neurosurgeon who spent 25 minutes at Thursday’s National Prayer Breakfast outlining his opposition to President Obama‘s policies… while President Obama was sitting next to him. After playing some highlights from Carson’s scathing speech, including his alternative to Obamacare, host Kimberly Guilfoyle played a clip of Rush Limbaugh‘s praising the doctor: “This is the kind of thing the Republican party should have been saying for the past four years.”
|
Comments: Bob Beckel jumped ugly on Dr. Carson, not once but twice - the second time at the end of the program. He is a nasty bugger who should be cut loose from this otherwise good program.

Thanks for the heads up, #2. I heard Dr. Carson yesterday, as well. Dr. Carson is so much much more intelligent, rational, and accomplished than 0bama. I´m sure 0bama was seething inside.

Dr. Carson put Zippy in his place on all and every level.
Twas a most wonderful thing to see.
You could actually see Zippy physically shrinking.
Dr. Carson is also a very brave man ...
... he could meet the same fate as Breitbart.

Right you are OP. Beckel is a nasty bugger. I could barely contain my fury when I looked at his hateful, nasty face. It really gets tiresome when all the rest of them on the Five talk about what good friend Bob is. It´s just sickening. I couldn´t spend five minutes in the same room with that contemptible, disgusting old fool.

I, for one, am sick of some of these totally misleading headlines. Most people don´t bother to read the articles before they post so would have thought ALL five of The Five panel concurred. Regardless of anyone´s feelings about Bechel, he vehemently disagreed with the others and the headline should have reflected that.

We watched "The Five" when this came on and HOOTED at the screen!
The best part was when Greg Gutfeld compared the lack of intelligence of Dr. Carson to the erudite Sandra Fluke. Greg is so good!
Bob nearly blew a gasket, and he showed his bias and ignorance as usual.

#8, I would argue that the electronic records are useful to physicians, especially specialists like Dr. Carson. His time is precious, and he can take care of many more patients than the paper records shuffling that he would do under the old system. My problem with the electronic records is one of central government control on procedures and medications, and indirectly, on gun control. The former is a step in the direction of death panels (already used in England) and the latter means that if the central government chose to define mental illness based on medications ever taken, it would disqualify a huge percentage of the citizenry on buying a gun. If you were prescribed valium or xanax for the stress of a family funeral, it is not much of a stretch to believe you could be rejected for gun ownership.

Singer Beyonce and Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter traveled to Cuba “pursuant to an educational exchange trip” organized by an authorized company, the U.S. Treasury Department said in response to inquiries from Florida lawmakers. The trip by the celebrity couple spurred widespread media coverage after two U.S. representatives from Florida, Republicans Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Mario Diaz-Balart, asked the Treasury who approved the travel and for what purpose. U.S. law prohibits financial transactions for tourist activities in Cuba to prevent funding of the government, which controls the industry. The Treasury permits visits for educational reasons.

Lee, along with Sens. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas), told Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) two weeks ago that a GOP filibuster would stop any gun legislation from moving forward on a 60-vote threshold procedural motion.

Offered admission into several top colleges, she accepted a scholarship to UC San Diego, leaving behind the often rough, inner-city world of South Los Angeles.

These are trying times. Never in the history of this country have we been so weakened and polarized by what many view as deliberate government policy. Now anti-gunners in the U.S. Congress, the Obama administration, and legislatures across the country are seeking to exploit the Newtown tragedy to promote their “gun control” agenda that envisions federal, universal background checks on gun purchases, and that could lead to gun registration and confiscation. At the same time, the increasing militarization of law enforcement, most visibly demonstrated by the growing use of massive, SWAT-type raids on businesses and individuals, sometimes with federal

Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs."

Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999.

The state of California is reportedly considering legislation that would force group insurance policies to provide infertility treatment for gay and lesbian couples. Two men who have sex with each other for a year and do not produce a baby would be considered “infertile” under the proposed legislation. So would two women having sex. Since biology does not allow those without a uterus to conceive or those without a penis to impregnate, every year-long gay couple in California would potentially be covered by this new provision of California law.
