Well, big day tomorrow.... gotta go walk my dog and get to bed... I may be busy most of the day.

Oh, BTW, Mitspa, that doesn't mean I'm quitting the forum.......... just in case you felt the need to spread that around.

Are you just trying to sound foolish? Or are you saying you would only trust in God, never in the knowledge He gave doctors?
Doctors are not to be trusted, they and the modern medical establishment is perfidious beyond description. One of the biggest Ponzi schemes and forefront of corruption in America easily.

I wonder if Carson won, if he would make everyone in the United States become vegetarian? Staunch SDA's are vegetarians.

As for doctors, I get so tired of this lie about Big Pharma and how terrible docs are. My son-in-law and my daughter-in-law are both residents. My DIL will be a full doc after the end of May. If you knew how incredibly hard those two work, you would back off on the rhetoric. My SIL right now is working 20 hour shifts.They literally rarely get a day off, in 5 years of residency. They have to do night on call shifts, then they get a day "off" on Saturday or Sunday! Like those weren't their days off anyway. Both of them are incredibly smart and hard working, top of their classes. But seriously, they are going to age 20 years in their 5 years residency.

If anyone at MacDonalds or a garbage dump had to put in the unpaid hours they do, it would be screaming all over the news. It is virtual slavery.

As for "Big Pharma" my life changed completely when I got on very expensive biologics 10 years ago. Before that, I was bed ridden and house bound. I was able to do my MDiv, ride my bike almost 100 km a week outside and help out in my church and community in various ways. The only problem for me with Big Pharma, is that they are tired of putting out the R &D money, and they are not finding new and exciting ways to treat severe auto-immune diseases. I've pretty much burned through them all, at this point. But I am incredibly grateful for meds that got me out of bed, and allowed me some extra fun years with my kids and grandkids!

Well, going to no less than 65% of your diet being green leafy vegetables IS the primary defense against RA. That's been proven in countless cases. But it DOES require the guts to do it.

Probably surprising to you, I agree with you to an extent. The medical profession HAS been lulled (or duped?) into depending way too much on pill pushing. But when quick, emergency measures are needed to save lives (as in the work Ben does) you sure better hope there is a doctor around to keep you from dying.

It took you this long to figure that out?? :p
Is true though, just look into the biggest lobbies and corruptors of American society and politics to keep on topic too. The wonk is real and its kinda absurd. Wasn't even meaning just Big Pharma, but them too.

This Carson / Cruz thing is blowing up big time!

Cruz had better get out in front of this tomorrow............or he could well realize the end of his campaign over this issue.

O'Reilly Factor investigated this issue, and the results were damning for BOTH CNN and the Cruz people.

The apology Cruz offered Carson (in light of the reports tonight) was so inadequate as to be inane.

That's pretty much the way Clinton wanted to handle Benghazi. "It's over. It doesn't matter now."

This whole thing is Dr Carsons own fault ..and now Trump and his followers are trying to make something out of nothing.

Not to mention that not to many people remember that when Obama first took office of President in his first term he pushed for a 100% government funded health care system.

The private doctor's padded the pockets of those in government to spread lies about that system and not approve it, because they would not be able to charge more then doctor's in hospitals.

That is why then Obama brought in the new system and kept changing it and changing it tell it got approved to be the Obamacare we all know now !!!

In that we have yet another lying politician making the same sort of ("That's done with, let's not bring it up.") excuse, hoping people will ignore what they did.... "Yes."

Well I think its dishonest to even try to equate the two issues in anyway and proves that your "outrage" at cruz is nothing more than just a expression or your own dishonesty towards him and this issue .... Liar ..liar ... is not very effective when someone is clearly being dishonest themselves.

The Low Life never even apologized for trying to steal Ben's followers in the first place. All he offered any kind of apology for was that he "made a mistake" by not sending out follow-up Twitters to cover his rear end after he got caught.

The fault was really CNN’s. CNN put out a report with a big chyron underneath saying Carson ‘taking break’ from campaign and then saying he intended to skip NH and South Carolina. This kind of language is common when one is suspending a campaign. The Cruz team was reacting to that.
It also didn’t occur until around 8 pm. At that point people were already caucusing and voting. It would seem unlikely that anyone would change their vote over a report at that point, especially if they were hearing it from an opponent.
