Video

quote:

You could even hear -- you could even hear how President Obama was like: "Should I be saying this? This is probably not exactly." He even slowed himself down, like, "Oh, I've let the horse out of the barn -- I got to go get it." Whereas Ben Carson was like: "Hey, everybody, gather around. Got a story to tell you about America." That's not the same thing, and anybody who's making it the same thing doesn't understand how language works.

quote:

I got to ask because context is everything -- I don't know if the venue mattered, but I think the way he phrased it was completely different, right? He -- with a caveat saying, "And those with an African heritage who came over here involuntarily."

If there is no universal truth then everything is true.

Actual real life transcript (I wish I were making this up):

He even slowed himself down, like, "Oh, I've let the horse out of the barn -- I got to go get it." Whereas Ben Carson was like: "Hey, everybody, gather around. Got a story to tell you about America." That's not the same thing, and anybody who's making it the same thing doesn't understand how language works.

I know how America works.

Scenario A:

Reads controversy, checks to see who is involved, it's someone from the other political party...OUTRAGE!!!!

Scenario B:

Reads controversy, checks to see who is involved, it's someone from my political party...this is a non-story.

I'm beginning to see a pattern here:

quote:

I know how America works.

Scenario A:

Hears N-word, checks to see if skin is brown, it's someone from the white race...OUTRAGE!!!!

Scenario B:

Hears N-word, checks to see if skin is bronw, it's someone who is black...this is a non-story.

Anybody have updated stats of the media of today? The percentage of democrat media is probably more than conservative/Independents.

Looked like Obama was reading from a teleprompter and Carson was speaking off the cuff.
