AURaptor 1,113 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Carson admits no such thing. And yes, the MSM are attacking Carson for something he misunderstood as a 17-year-old ROTC stand out. Meanwhile, Obama made up a girlfriend out of composite individuals, and the media praise that as a clever literary device. Hillary Clinton, claimed she was interested in joining the Marines, back in 1974. At the age of 27. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUDub 10,148 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Not as funny as the whole "pyramids were for storing grain!" claim. "Joseph! What do these strange dreams mean?" "Seven years of plenty followed by seven years of famine, Pharaoh." "Oh, no! I hereby make you my Minister of Everything! What should we do?" "Well, we have only seven years, so let's spend all of that time constructing astonishingly immense granaries-" "Um-" "That are 99.99% solid stone by volume-" "What? Why-" "With only 0.01% of the volume open and usable for storing grain." "..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURaptor 1,113 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Just like clockwork? You mean reveal the hypocrisy of the mainstream media, and the doofus left-wing zealots? Yeah, I'm gonna do that. Let's review did Ben serve in theROTC? Yes did Ben serve as a stand out in the ROTC? Yes did Ben meet general Westmoreland? Yes! Complete and total non-issue. In fact, what difference at this time does it make? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, what difference at this time does it make? It's never a lie when it comes from a Conservative. Ben Carson’s campaign on Friday admitted, in a response to an inquiry from POLITICO, that a central point in his inspirational personal story was fabricated: his application and acceptance into the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.

Ben Carson never actually said "I lied about being admitted to West Point". Just like Bush never actually lied about the justification to invade Iraq. His campaign probably issued that statement without his knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a neurosurgeon realizes his mistake fifty something years later only after the discrepancy was caught by "those durn liberals." Maybe he is not Presidential material. I'd actually be more comforted if I knew he lied about it. Not so if I know that our future president is dense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUUSN 823 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Ben Carson said on his Facebook page that he was "thrilled to get an offer from Westpoint." That is a lie, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
