If you have read CARSON'S book, you realize he never said any of the things Politico accuses him of. It does not matter whom you are for, this kind of crap is so transparent and deceitful that if you believe it you are no better than the leftists and democrats. These accusations on CARSON are a nothing-burger designed to get him off message nothing more.
What is really depressing is how the people on FR are participating in this absolute hit-job. I guess they envision that their candidate will be spared it. No one on the right will be spared, including their candidate.

I prefer Cruz point-by-point, and I like Donald Trump, except that his big mouth and his love for hearing his own opinion about almost anything will sink him if it hasn't already.

But these hits about absolutely nothing by the Cruz and Trump supporters are depressing. I think many of them are merely paid operatives from campaigns posting crap and having a conversation among themselves as campaign operatives but under the guise of being just random conservative people on FR.

I am for Trump, but I am definitely not for what is happening to Carson nor do I believe it for one minute.

Carson saying he was offered a scholarship was correct in the sense that when Westmoreland offered him a post at Westpoint it meant they would pay for all his expenses including a stipend. That is a scholarship even better than a typical scholarship. That is what Carson meant.

There is nothing in these accusations and if Carson were to rise to be the nominee I would gladly support him. If he overcomes this to win the nomination that is wonderful.

He should not lose like this. This is stupid and the FR people who want to crucify him under false pretense are no better than leftists and democrats. They are probably trolls.

Carson is a world class talented man who is far above 99.99% of the people on this forum!

Carson is doing this to himself.

I don’t see anyone on FR sabotaging Carson’s campaign. I, for one, would not do that. However, people have a right to post articles that may not put a candidate in a positive light. That’s fair.

My candidate is Trump and I’ve seen negative articles about him. I’ve also seen negative articles about Cruz, Fiorina, Rubio, Bush, ect.

Question...Is it okay to bash Bush? I don’t see anyone defending him and he’s been slaughtered. He seems to be a “nice” man just like Carson.

We are all grown-ups. Each individual can determine for him/herself what is or is not a hit-job.

Note: It’s the media writing the articles, not Freepers.

I’ll admit, I bit on the story, hook, line, sinker.

After hearing Rush, I’m going to wait a bit, but I think I’m going to be eating bitter crow.

I want Ben out, but never, never, like this.

It is shameful how FReepers are happily promoting media lies. It’s no wonder we conservatives have such trouble getting our message out when our ranks contain those who embrace these media tactics.

I’ve begun to wonder if the likes of StopRush trolls have found their way to FreeRepublic, registered multiple screen names, and are carrying out their version of Operation Chaos.
