Typical for the MSM.
I suspected it involved a conversation and not an application.
Turns out the liar is Politico not Carson. Another embarrassing accusation for you to retract.
At the end of my twelfth grade I marched at the head of the Memorial Day parade. I felt so proud, my chest bursting with ribbons and braids of every kind. To make it more wonderful, We had important visitors that day. Two soldiers who had won the Congressional Medal of Honor in Viet Nam were present. More exciting to me, General William Westmoreland (very prominent in the Viet Nam war) attended with an impressive entourage. Afterward, Sgt. Hunt introduced me to General Westmoreland, and I had dinner with him and the Congressional Medal winners. Later I was offered a full scholarship to West Point. I didnââ¬â¢t refuse the scholarship outright, but I let them know that a military career wasnââ¬â¢t where I saw myself going.
Well someone is lying. Either Carson or Politico...or both
So Mr. Kyle Cheney, at least one of you is lying. Which is it?
Liberal media lies, or rather *more* liberal media lies.
Again they tell us whom they fear. They really fear Dr. Carson.
Yep. I knew this would be the case.
Folks, when organizations like the POLLUTICO go after Republicans and ignore the blatant disregard for the law exhibited by Obama and other Demon Rat imps, this ought to send a signal to everyone claiming to be a conservative.
Trump, Carson, Cruz, etc. are all working, we believe, to make America great again, right? So let's not fall for the LameStream Media's manipulation.
Please.
Total fabrication on Politico’s end.
The fact that so many here buy Politico’s lie lock stock and barrel makes me think they probably believed the Dan Rather forgeries.
Ah... Good. I’m glad the campaign is giving Pollutico a broadside on that one.
Hit them back for their lies, Politico is obviously chock full of racists.
It really doesn’t matter if it is a lie or not.
See the main thread. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3357149/posts
The point is - FReepers believe he lied and have (with the rest of the media) thrown the good doctor under the bus.
Nobody knee-jerks like FReepers. We eat our own at the drop of the hat.
Ben is playing defense. Not gonna work
Carson apparently wrote in his book that he was accepted to West Point. That is BS.
All Politico did was show that the Westmoreland visit was not Memorial Day but February.
My questions are:
Who was pulling out Westmoreland’s daily schedules of almost 50 years ago for Politico?
Who was pulling up applications to the school of almost 50 years ago for Politico?
It’s what I figured. He was a brilliant, scholarly, black kid from inner city Detroit and in JROTC, and he met Westmoreland. I’ve no doubt that the general would have offered help for him to get into West Point. Westmoreland was a graduate himself.
It’s the metric we should use to tell the FReepers from the wannabes.
