Daylily Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 This is an awesome speech. If you haven't heard jit, it's worth you time to listen to it! http://hotair.com/archives/2013/02/08/video-dr-benjamin-carsons-speech-at-the-national-prayer-breakfast/ Quote Link to comment
The WE2's Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Found some "expressions" quite intriguing! LOL Quote Link to comment
Daylily Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 I'm not sure what you mean. Quote Link to comment
The WE2's Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 The Pres (at least what they showed on news) had a very funny look on his face. Quote Link to comment
The WE2's Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Yesterday I watched (what some might call contraversial(?) video...they were saying that most of the unrest in these other countries was because these people had no work and no food...and that is why they are rioting and storming their governments. Made Philbe stop and think for an extra moment. Alot of people think it's because these governments are corrupt (which they are) and because of oil (and it probably does have something to do with it)...but it's common nature for peoples to remain docile as long as they've got some sort of shelter, water and food for their families. Again...me thinkin' a bit "lower" on the ladder. Quote Link to comment
Jeepers Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 The Pres (at least what they showed on news) had a very funny look on his face. I liked what he had to say. I watched the above video on full screen and kept my eyes on Pres. Obama the entire time. Looked like he was fighting to stay awake a few times. If I remember correctly, the only time he made any facial expressions was when Carson told a joke.Then he smiled. I also noticed he didn't applaud when others did. Quote Link to comment
Daylily Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 I noticed that too. I also noticed that he was a little delayed in the standing ovation that Dr Carson received. Maybe he thought he'd better stand since everybody else was! I couldn't really see his facial expressions unless he had a smile. Quote Link to comment
lumabean Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I haven't enjoyed someone giving a talk before in a long, long time -- he's a very inspiring man. Loved everything he had to say, I wish there were more like him speaking in the world, he makes a lot of sense to me. The president looked bored, tired, and disinterested. Before they zoomed in, and Mrs. Obama was visible, she looked (to me) to be a lot more interested and engaged than her husband. Regardless, I liked what Dr. Carson had to say Loved his comments on political correctness, and the story of his mom was touching too. Still chuckling over the parable about the man who sent his mom the exotic birds for Mothers Day LOL Quote Link to comment
The WE2's Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I'm still trying to figure what he leaned over and said to Mrs. O...perhaps "kick me if I nodd off"...? Quote Link to comment
Daylily Posted February 12, 2013 Author Share Posted February 12, 2013 Dr Carson has written at least 2 books, maybe more. There is a dvd of his life story too. A friend sent me a copy but I haven't had a chance to watch it yet. Gifted Hands is one book and I don't remember the other one. Quote Link to comment
mommato3boys Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 The Pres (at least what they showed on news) had a very funny look on his face. Yeah by his express I don't think he was too pleased with the speach especially when Dr. Carson gave his solution for health care. OMG I think I actually saw steam out of the POTUS ears. Oh and when Dr. Carson said we need less lawyers in DC and more doctors and educators I thought he was going to pop a button. Quote Link to comment
