(1)Your friend the left wing moderator framed the question about “relationships”

(2)He didn’t consider that to be a “relationship”



(1) None of the MSM Debate Moderators are my "friends". They are despicable Stalinist liberal propaganda agents


(2) "Relationships".

Above My Pay Grade, with all due respect, you have an "association-relationship" with your employer, your landlord, your internet-TV provider, and the kid who cuts your grass every week.

Just like me.



Why ?

Because "money" and/or "renumeration" is exchanged for goods, services, or time spent on the job site.

It's quite simply the law.



We both have an "association-relationship" with Free Republic, and (no criticism intended) ... while I am a regular contributor, you may not be.

But you still have an "association-relationship" with Free Republic because you're posting here.

At the same time, I do NOT have an "association-relationship" with Planned Parenthood, the Democratic Party, Green Peace, the Communist Party USA, or the Hillary Clinton 2016 presidential campaign.



Dr. Ben Carson does "indeed" ... where he on trial in an American court of law ... have an "association-relationship" with Mannatech ...

where money ($ 120,000) was exchanged for Dr. Ben Carson's smiling face (and VERY real "endorsements) of Mannatech products.



Dr. Ben Carson's "offense" as I'm presenting is NOT his "association-relationship" with Mannatech ...

but rather that he LIED about in on national television in front of 11 million viewers ...

and effectively KILLED his (otherwise outstanding) presidential campaign.



Don't blame me, I'm just the messenger.



One last thing.

Herman Cain was destroyed because (according to him) he gave money to a woman (not his wife) whose was in dire circumstances.

Nice guy.

But he didn't come "squeaky clean" ASAP ... and the liberal MSM destroyed him.



Dr. Ben Carson has had TWO days (an eternity in national presidential politics) to set the Mannatech record straight ...

and instead of a FULL DISCLOSURE announced at a major press conference ...

the otherwise BRILLIANT Dr. Ben Carson is hiding in the shadows (like Herman Cain) desperately hoping that the T-Rex MSM monster doesn't eat him alive.

Yeb Bush, Marco Rubio, John Kasisch, Karl Rove, Carly Fiorina, Lindsay Graham, Mike Huckabee, Donald Trump ... George Will and Dr. Krauthammer ...

will celebrate with CHAMPAIGN TOASTS when their "political assassins" have finished "killing" Dr. Ben Carson.



Dr. Ben Carson's 2016 Presidential Campaign is "finished"

Dr. Ben Carson will be polling in "single digits" by Christmas 2015.

Like Herman Cain in 2012, the Fat Lady is already beginning to sing.

But he didn’t “lie” at the debate. He said that he had been paid to give some speeches. Whether or not that is an association or relationship is semantics as he revealed what he did with the company.

Also, in context, the question was about having control over the operations of the company as it was lumped in under a series of questions about companies he was on the board of directors of. Clearly he did not have that sort of relationship with Mannatech.

If a man was told he was going to be asked a series of questions about sexual relationships he had and the second question was whether he had a relationship with his female boss and he answered “No, I only worked for her.” would that be a lie? Of course not.
