Once again Rush thinks like me. So sad, many will carry forever their impression that Carson lied. As if. Will indeed even hear it from FReepers.
Meanwhile, the very same media that is attacking Carson for lying.... At the very same time will praise Hillary and ignore her mountain of lies that jepordize U.S. National Securty.
Translating....
Hillary = Okay to lie all she wants no matter what, and if you do not like it then YOU are sexist.
Carson = Must step down
Everyone is forgetting a major part of the Service Academy process — the whole year before a Board decides among the nominees, a potential nominee can be having correspondence with ONLY HIS CONGRESSMAN.
So if an Academy spokesman says they have no record of an application, to me it proves nothing. The Academies basically “fold” when presented with a Congressman’s nomination. AND if a Congressman decided that Carson was his nominee, that might be the FIRST TIME the Academy ever heard of him. Accordingly, if Carson had presumed from his Congressman’s assurances (or Vice Pres, or Pres)that he was “in”, he would in essence be “in”. Then if Carson decided against it and told his Congressman “no”, the Academy could possibly not even have an application.
