It's making fun of every single person who has had to adapt to a brain injury whether acquired via accident or surgery.

I would hope we all agree - making a joke out of brain damage is not cool.

BUT, I would hope any responses to this posting is regarding what is taking place in our nation right now. We are talking about a person that IS a "brain surgeon" that has been placed into a position of regulating housing and human services for citizens of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA - with NO F**KING experience related to ANYTHING relating to the job!

May I politely say - whoever thought of nominating this person for that job is some serious nut case!

I think Carson's strongest qualification for this administration is that he is basically an anti-black black man who thinks he pulled himself up out of public housing by his bootstraps. From what we have seen from this administration he is probably an ideal pick according to their criteria.
