Boy, Rush is really stretching it today to cover for what Ben Carson said about West Point story. No one even knows if what Carson said of his conversation with Westmoreland ever occurred. No way to prove it even took place, other than Carson’s word for it, just like what he says about his earlier “attacks” by hammer, and knife on ficticious named people, now stated to be his relatives who won’t talk about the incidents, conveniently.

All stories are based on what Carson himself says without any ability of the public to verify the truth of his statements. Smells to high heaven, and I don’t know why Rush is trying to cover for him, at Rush’s own peril if more comes out about this that shows Carson to have exaggerated or outright lied.

Actually, I think your comments stink and I'm a fellow Trump supporter. Two military men called into his show and said that he would have been told he was eligible for a “scholarship” - using a common person's parlance. And he now has to prove to freepers that he spoke to Westmoreland? How does he prove that? I once spoke to George H. Bush - how do I prove that? (It was on a ropeline!)

I recognize all of this from Thomas and Cain and here we go again.

I'll be damned if I going this route.

You are pathetic. There’s no better word for it. Absolutely pathetic.

CNN reports one day that they can’t confirm Dr. Carson’s stories of his past. Not that they can refute them; just that they can’t find any one to confirm them.

Then the left-wing site, Politico, writes a story implying that Dr. Carson applied to West Point, and that he was offered a scholarship, refutes that, gets the campaign to “admit” that he was never formally offered a scholarship, and all of a sudden you’re a full-blown believer in left wing propaganda and don’t trust Dr. Carson, a person of unquestioned character, until now.

For the record, Dr. Carson never said at any time, anywhere (including in his book) that he was granted a scholarship, nor did he ever say that he applied to West Point. You are being played and, pathetically, you’ve chosen to participate in the playing. You might yourself ask how you could let Donald Trump turn you into a person just like him.
