He hid Anne Frank from the Nazis too.

In a “hermetically sealed” room, like the one Joseph used to store grain at the Great Pyramids.

Is there nothing this guy can’t do?

He’s Herman Cain without the pizza and white women.

Burden of proof rests on the accusers.

New day, same smear tactics. Sorry “News Media” doesn’t work that way. You don’t get to publish a smear and demand the victim prove your smear untrue.

The standard is you have to have proof before you publish. That you were unable to find proof is not proof of absence

That supposed “Conservatives” have adopted these Leftist smear tactics raises serious questions.

Are they really “Conservatives” or just Leftist disruption bots?

Dr. Carson is not my first or second choice, but I will nit believe anything from the media about him. He is clearly a target now and the hit pieces will keep coming from the drive bys.

I don’t agree with him on several issues, but I believe him to be honest and a reputable man. If the media can really prove otherwise, then so be it. But until they offer concrete proof and not hit pieces that are later retracted, I will no believe them.

What Carson describes happened in Chicago also. Upon the start of the riots in Chicago’s westside, I was assigned by insurance companies to check the status of the buildings they were insuring in the riot area.

Here I was a young white guy just out of ‘Nam with a short haircut, but obviously not police, asking questions and taking notes. Although I never came close to personal danger, leaders of the riot, who knew me from anti-Dem machine politics passed the word around to not bother me...and not just me but some other whites (teachers, social workers, Alinsky activists, etc.). I heard several 2d hand stories from both Blacks and whites of individuals watching out for each other.

So Carson’s story from Detroit is plausible.

they loathe every aspect of his personal story -- that's one of the things that they so viscerally, vehemently hate about him. He's a living refutation of all they believe about minorities. Doesn't he know that he was supposed to be consigned to the poverty of the projects for his whole life so they could "help" him?

Exactly.

Not one question to Hillary why she lied to the American people for a month, yet thousands of these stories.

Pray America wakes

Thus, they loathe every aspect of his personal story

The only reason they could hate Carson more is if his mother had contemplated abortion then changed her mind....

They are fine with these tactics as long as their candidate is not getting hit.

I agree with all of your points. Carson should not respond to the media the way he does...or try to explain himself on Facebook.

Dr Carson lost me with amnesty.

On Wednesday, Dr. Ben Carson said America's borders must be sealed to protect against terrorism and told a prominent group of Latino elected officials that he also supports giving illegal immigrants a path to legalization and eventual citizenship . . .

Conservative radio host Mark Levin just said he will absolutely in no way support any GOP primary candidate who sided with Politico on this recent anti-Carson hatchet job. I concur. There goes any possibility of Levin support for DT and probably from Hannity and Rush as well. You don’t cross these heavies and get away with it in Conservative circles. Trump just stepped in it and made a significant Miscalculation. It soeajs volumes on character.

Many Trump supporters are going down a mistaken path. The lib MSM from hardcore oppo research ikely has dynamite stuff on Trump—don’t say the guy is home free—but they are withholding it until the right time. Should any other candidate or their supporters come to -his- support when it’s HIS turn also in the barrel? It isn’t rocket science knowing their M.O. to say it’s only a matter of time....

The Politico story didn’t “blow up”. he Press is doubling down and Carson isn’t helping himself being on Defense.

The tale as originally reported is still being broadcast, even on the Local News.

The devil is in the details, and the typical non Political types never get past the Headline. We are fooling ourselves.

So he’s not an amnesty lover, anti-second amendment, or part of a cult?
