"It's as easy as brain surgery with a chainsaw." . . . Please come CAPTION Ben Carson!!!



Ben ("Just hold still for a minute, will ya?&quot Carson just finished saying: "If it's a majority of people in that area want a Confederate flag to fly, I certainly wouldn't take it down. . . . Who's to say that even some of my own ancestors weren't proud to be slaves under its banner? . . . Maybe thousands of them teared up to the strains of Ol' Dixie Mine and wept to be part of the land of cotton that stretched out beneath that glorious flag! . . . I mean whose to say anyway?"



******************************************************************************************

Above CAPTION is based upon (indeed the first sentence is almost verbatim from) the following article at Crooks & Liars":

"I have a multi-million dollar idea but I don't want to capitalize on it so I'm just putting it out there: Drive Thru Brain Surgery. . . . Wow! . . . We can use the exhaust as anesthesia and have three windows: one to cut them open, one to dig around inside their cranium with scalpels, and one to patch them up. . . . We could call it: Slice, Snip, 'n Stitch. . . . What do you think? . . . Boy, sometimes I even surprise myself!"
