Ben Carson mixed up a real estate term with an Oreo cookie. 'I was having difficulty hearing,' he explained.

By Deanna Paul and Deanna Paul Reporter covering national and breaking news Email Bio Follow Colby Itkowitz Colby Itkowitz Congress, campaigns, health policy, Pennsylvania politics Email Bio Follow May 22 at 2:39 PM Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson seized the opportunity during a Wednesday morning interview on Fox Business Network to explain a blunder that took the media for a spin Tuesday afternoon.

“An Oreo?” the secretary asked, referring to the popular sandwich cookie made by Nabisco; Porter kindly restated the three letters. Carson did not address the question or explain the discrepancy. He sidestepped the issue with digs at the media and Democratic lawmakers.

Ben Carson is a real bozo. Couldn't believe his testimony. Aside from his answers, this overstuffed turkey told a Representative he was 'reclaiming his time'. Gawd what a clown!

LOL

Maybe you thought he was sleepy .. when in all actuality he was bored stiff...😉

Still can’t even fathom this dude was a brain surgeon. I would trust him operating on the guy in “Operation”

He needs to go back to sleep until this nightmare is over.

He needs to resign

Fox anything says it all...

He may be a surgeon, that doesn't mean he has common sense or balls.

CaroleCasuco He was drugged up. He was incoherent all the time in there.

REO? I liked them in the 70s but stopped listening to them in the 80s...

Oh God help us

Difficulty W H A T?

And to think this doorstop was operating on people’s brains...

Ben Carson is just plain not qualified, after he screws up in a congressional hearing he runs to Fox Fake News

He’s a good man.. this abuse is appalling

😂😂😂😂 sure Ben, sure!!!

Someone should tell Ben Carson the it is better to be quiet and thought a fool, then to open your mouth and prove it.

If Ben Carson is supposed to be an intelligent, gifted surgeon, why does he seem so incredibly dim? It boggles the mind.

Because he was stoned...

Always 1

That's because SecretaryCarson was actually thinking of Oreos at that moment! All the ill-suited cabinet secretaries were put there by the KGBeast realDonaldTrump ... all by design to try to weaken or damage our democracy.

Believe Me' is good enough

Ah ... the TrumpCrimeSyndicate’s network of choice. Anyone surprised?😯 BenCarsonResign

A brilliant surgeon but totally out of his element in his position. Should have declined the position when it was offered.

Wishful thinking? Or time for a hearing aid?

Stupid people need a stage too.

The scoundrels always run to Fox.

Uh-huh

You cannot make this shit up?

The only network that is as inept as he is

He’d have been better off just letting that go. They never learn 🙄

Was it like trump's 'oringes' or Tim Apple

Smug in ignorance. Amazing

How Carson’s brain actually keeps him alive is beyond me. I think his pacemaker is also connected to his cerebellum; giving him a jolt every 5 minutes or so.

because when one is stoned, Oreos are all one can think about.

Ah. Well, we've all been there. Case closed.

D-O-C-T-O-R Ben Carson

he was probably afraid the cookies would allow them access to his files.....

How the hell does this man hold this position? Oh wait, never mind...

Because he is not qualified for the job. That's why he screwed up his answer

Ok this Oreo joke is just too easy.

SecretaryCarson Oh please for the love creatures great and small, just stop talking.

Stupid is as stupid does

People do make mistakes

Shut up 🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐🤐 Every time he opens his mouth ,out comes nonsense.

I wouldn’t let this clown anywhere near my kids brain...

When asked Carson also said his favourite band was Oreo Speedwagon.

'I was hacked.'

Because he's too lazy to learn what he needs to learn to do his job?

Uh huh. And later he thought Rep Beatty was asking him about Amway when she inquired about OMWI - - Great surgeon; incompetent elsewhere.

Good God, stop, just stop talking Ben

Yeah usually when I'm in a Congressional hearing being asked about housing policy and I can't hear what the congressperson is saying, I assume it's about cookies.

because Ancient Egyptians built the pyramids to store Oreo cookies?

He's appeared on Fox Biscuits? Crackers.

Ben Carson probably has a genius level IQ. As is the case with many highly intelligent people, they tend to be a little awkward.

Because he is another ignorant unqualified inept overpaid appointee

You were having difficulty hearing. Yeah, Dr. Carson, so are we.

He looked stoned to me. Seriously. And then the Oreo talk? Munchies, lol.

If stupid were to take human form, it would look much like Ben Carson.

Ummm because he is dumb

Only a faux news viewer would believe his stupidity

Every time I hear Ben Carson speak I think brain surgery must be really easy.

Shut up. You are making a bad situation worse you moron

Meanwhile, the Dems hero and their potential presidential candidate, Avenatti, has been indicted....

Well obviously Oreos is a real estate term. Obviously

Someone did their own brain surgery.

F R A U D

Spoiler alert: It's because he's an idiot

Pure projection. He’s an Oreo himself ~ black on the outside, deplorably white on the inside.

He also has difficulty staying awake

Incompetent pompous ass

He has no empathy, this psychopath does not deserve the role in government he currently occupies .

Ca he dumb
