See the Prayer Breakfast Speech That’s Grabbing Headlines: Doctor Attacks Political Correctness, National Debt in Front of Obama

Feb. 7, 2013 11:39amBilly Hallowell

 â€¢Dr. Benjamin Carson delivered a noteworthy National Prayer Breakfast keynote speech in President Barack Obama’s presence
 â€¢Carson attacked political correctness as a “dangerous” threat to free speech and encouraged Americans to boldly share their views
 â€¢The pediatric neurosurgeon also provided his theories about the national debt, deficits, taxation and health care, taking stances that were opposed to the president’s
ʉۢObama watched intently as Carson spoke for more than 25 minutes
 
One of the more unique speeches delivered at this morning’s National Prayer Breakfast came from Dr. Benjamin S. Carson, a world-renowned pediatric neurosurgeon at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Taking the stage before President Barack Obama’s faith-filled address, Carson spoke for more than 25 minutes, tackling issues ranging from education to personal responsibility. His keynote, while predicated upon the theme of Jesus Christ as his ultimate role model, also took a starkly political tone, advocating against some of the very policies the president has implemented.

At the beginning of his speech, Carson shared an intense disdain for political correctness. Without getting too specific on the issue front, he said that Americans should stop being afraid to speak up and defend their beliefs; he also encouraged people to respect the individuals they disagree with. Carson held little back, condemning political correctness as “a horrible thing” that is “dangerous,” as it hampers freedom of thought and expression.
 
“We’ve reached a point where people are actually afraid to talk about what they want to say, because somebody might be offended,” Carson said, noting the example of people refraining from saying “Merry Christmas.” “We’ve got to get over this sensitivity and it keeps people from saying what they really believe.”

We need more people like Dr. Carson!

Dr. Ben Carson

I have really been interested in his life ever since I heard about him quite a few years ago. I have posted about him a couple of times on here through the years as well. What brought me to post this today was his speech at the National Prayer Breakfast a few days ago. Watch Obama though out his speech. I think I have even more respect for Dr. Carson after hearing what he had to say, in front of Obama no less, if that is even possible.

Look up the movie about him and watch it sometime. Cuba Gooding Jr. plays him, you can't come away from it with out having a huge amount of respect for this beautiful man. Look up his accomplishments and where he came from, please watch this video and look up his life, do it for me please.

That was awesome. Bob Beckle and Kristen Powers claim it is disrespectful. But it seemed very respectful and less respectful things from liberals have been called "speaking truth to power." Well, here's a man who actually did it.

He was very respectful, calm and made a lot of sense. No wonder the libs hate him.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

Thank you for posting the video.  I was mesmerized by the message and his manner.

The only thing disrespectful was having that half-white anti-American jackass in the same room as such a great America as Dr. Carson.

Actually, since he called the Won out in such a public fashion, he probably just insulated himself from audits for the next 4 years. He gets the IRS nastygram, and immediately has cause to claim retaliation for exercising his 1st Amendment rights.

Biden looked absolutely enrapt until suddenly he remembers who he works for.

Edit: My bad, that's not Biden, I realized on watching this excellent video once more. I should have known it wasn't Biden because the man is actually paying attention.

I watched the whole video......is it just me or do y'all get the same feeling as me when someone cuts your ass to the bone in a super nice way and tone of voice.....it cuts to the quick and hurts like hell.

I hope Obama felt that way.....of course he did. He can't stand it when people disagree with him or don't follow his orders.... :lmao:
