Neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson, who continues to rank in first or second place in polls for the Republican presidential primary race, has what could charitably be called an eccentric taste in home decor.

A recent profile in the Guardian took a photo tour of Carson's home in Upperco, Maryland, and dubbed what it documented as an "homage to himself."

Carson's walls are covered with dozens of news clippings, honorary degrees and photos of him alongside various celebrities, dignitaries and world leaders — as well as full-size paintings featuring Carson proudly posing in his white coat alongside the lord Jesus Christ. --Yahoo.com

Where the fuck do you live, anyway, or are you just too fucking ashamed to say?

No one is ashamed of their country, and no one is 'jealous' of your's. You might be terribly proud of the shitty piece of rock you happened to be born on, and want to boast about it constantly, but some people are a bit more mature than that.

You yanks are so crass. That's the trouble with your country; it's like a huge, fat, malevolent retarded child with a loaded automatic rifle.
