Only Democrat pols can embellish their military service and get away with it. Carson is done.
I am amazed, but not surprised, by the Media’s intense background check of Ben Carson especially when compared to, umm, er, their whitewash of Barack Obama.
Anyway, go Trump/Cruz. Attack and destroy the Mainstream Media and the GOPe at every opportunity.
Holy crap ping
His story is impressive on its own merit, can’t imagine why he’d have to gild the lily with a lie. Sad.
Carson out.
Whoaaaaa, what kind of man thinks he can lie about something so important and so verifiable?
I see what you did there........
Let's see, both are about the same age, wealthy, male and Black.
Hmmm, let me think about this...
I crack me up.

Boy, these apostrophe problems are multiplying, aren’t they??
This article is vague.
Politico is, typically, distorting what they claim is “central to Carson’s tale”.
The article itself verifies the event Carson attended with Westmorelland, and corrects the time from the Memorial Day Carson remembered to a February event.
The direct from Carson in the article also belies Politio’s fundamental distortion of what Carson claimed, which was that he was offered a scholarship, not that he applied and was accepted.
Be for Carson or against him, just don’t let the lying leftist media lead you around by the nose.
This is an out and out scam hit piece based on pure distortion like they always do.
Rubio is rising in large part due to picking up Bush support, as Jebbie goes down the tubes.
There is still a huge anti-politician sentiment out there and I can't see very many Carson OR Trump supporters suddenly deciding to throw their vote to an establishment candidate.
As a non-politician, Carly Fiorina could have been in that Trump/Carson tier and thus benefit by Carson dropping out, but I think she ruined her chances by acting too much like an establishment politician and taking an opportunity (at the debates) to take a cheap shot at Trump while Trump was extending an olive branch.
I think your black ball is right.
I have been wondering the same thing. I was beginning to think it was my computer as it has been doing strange things.
Laughable that you are telling others to read the entire article, especially since it includes an actual admission from Carson’s campaign manager that Carson’s claim of being “offered a full scholarship to West Point” is untrue!
But how does a liar attack the Hillary lies?
Ruh roh.
Wow. They are digging up stuff on Ben now.
He lies about getting accepted into West Point, that doesn’t take much of a dig, and it also speaks to his character because he was CURRENTLY lying about it.
I’m sad.
That’s raciss.
I'm for Cruz, but I hate it when a liberal rag tries to twist the truth about any conservative; especially when it gets conservatives to believe such lies!
Hmmm !
I guess Carson is a politician after-all.
.
As I predicted 10 days ago when he first took the lead in IA and in a single national poll.
