Leftist Website Compares Ben Carson to Saddam Hussein Because He Has a Painting of Himself and Jesus November 9, 2015

Saddam Hussein

You might want to sit down for this. Since at least 2009, Ben Carson has had a painting of him and Jesus hanging in his house.  The New York Post has the scoop:

Anyone who thought Ben Carson wasn’t being truthful when he said the person he’d most like to share a drink with is Jesus clearly has not been inside the Republican presidential hopeful’s home. Photos taken inside the pediatric surgeon’s residence in Upperco, Md., in November 2014 reveal he possessed a rendering of himself seated next to a smiling Jesus Christ.

Of course, people freaked out.  Check out this stupid statement from a far left website:

Carson’s house is like something out of Saddam Hussein’s palace: pictures of himself marked by weird historic fantasy role play.

So…  follow this logic with me for a second.  Carson is like Saddam… because he has a painting of him and Jesus.  (You know how much d Saddam loved Jesus, don’t you?)

Anyway, Carson responded like he always does — with common sense:

“I don’t have to be politically correct here.”
