Amen to that.
“The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
No he ain’t. That’s muzzie talk. The
MSM hates Republicans of every stripe.
Don’t cheer them on while they take down
one Pubbie then whine when they come
after your candidate (and they will). If you
want to vocalize your dislike for a GOP candidate
use info provided by something other than the
uncivilized lying-assed MSM. This goes for
everybody from Trump to Paul.
This is an example of character assassination:
Donald Trump Calls Controversy Swirling Around Ben Carson ‘Very Strange’
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3357909/posts
That’s all Trump has to say?
Nope, he brought the subject up — it’s his leading contender.
If Trump fails to help debunk any slanders and help broadcast any retractions, then he CERTAINLY IS being a character assassin.
That simple.
It’s Trump who first of all called Politico a bunch of liars because of an article Politico wrote about him Trump, then the very next day used an article from Politico against Ben Carson, to attack Ben Carson. You can’t make this stuff up.
He’s not “all-in” for Carson. Did you even read or listen to the quote or the audio? He is merely saying that for this hit-job on the 40-50 year old events in some cases regarding West Point/stabbing/angry-young-man “scoop” that CNN and Politico have tried to orchestrate. He’s not the only one, Limbaugh noted the very same things.
As a matter of fact, yes, I listened....LIVE, as he was saying this.
I even made the point, at the time, that I’d not seen the likes of Rush, Hannity or Levin come out in such combined force for others who’ve been similarly attacked. Sporadic support, yes, but not the united support these three came out with, for Carson, on Friday.
I despise the phrase "The soft racism of low expectations" but it's an apt description of what's going on.
Oh please. The Right is piling on him too. And for good reason. He’s a disaster and the last thing we need is Ben Carson being the voice of anything.
You have them figured out. Carson created his own problems with his claims. Who in their right mind would write some of the crap Carson did in his book? I have never seen a real man walk with his hands like Carson does or shake hands limp wristed. It appears he has a manicure.
Bill, that is true. I was the highest student ROTC member in Detroit and was thrilled to get an offer from West Point.Yes, I saw that exact FB post. And, it is consistent with what Carson said in his book(s) and in other interviews, I think.
Carson gave context to what he meant about this event that happened about 45 years ago, and it is context that was given in those books, too. He was the top ROTC member in Detroit, and was invited to a dinner where he recalled that he had met Westmoreland, who encouraged him to apply and that if he did he'd get a scholarship.
The writer of the hit piece said basically three things:
Donald Trump is not a Republican....
Do this mean you support TPP, gun control, statehood for PR, amnesty?? Carson needs to explain his policy positions and those supporting him need to figure out why they are supporting a liberal progressive.
Because it is a coordinated hit job. They have both defended Trump from some of this as well. I have listened to it and read it.
Nothing, absolutely nothing wrong in vetting Carson’s policies - some are very controversial as has been noted many times here at FR. But they are now hounding him over stupid stuff and doing it with all the evil joy they brought to their hounding of Thomas and Cain and West while turning a blind eye to the original “Magic Negro.”
Mark, as always, is correct. As Rush and Hannity have been.
Marl Levin is good but he popped off too quick about Carson. I guess he didn’t know that Carson is supporting Puerto Rico for statehood,
Part of the problem is that a lot of freepers do not use FB and so do not have access to Carson’s pushbacks. All of what you say in your post is true, although I didn’t hear that Westmoreland was in Detroit a month later. Interesting! And clears up the last question. That woman, Chris Jansing? certainly didn’t mention that this morning in the news.
I support Trump but don’t believe in hounding this candidate. It disgusts me.
A Huge AMEN to Levin!!!!!!
Mark Levin is not supporting Carson. And he wasn’t suggesting that it was off-limits to criticize Carson’s policy ideas re: Puerto Rico.
I was amazed when Carson said during his press conference that he knew reporters were trying to find a woman. I knew that too!
The book was written in 1990 right? So that is only 20 or so years after the event not 45. An he says he got an “offer from West Point”. If he got an offer then there would be a record of said offer. There isn’t so no Dr Carson never got an “offer from West Point”. Saying you got an “offer from West Point” is a vastly different when being encouraged to apply to West Point. Way way way different. There where lots and lots of ROTC programs in the USA back in 1969 being a TOP ROTC student doesn’t automatically get you into West Point.
Please stop spamming threads with Cruz propaganda, this thread has absolutely nothing to so with Amnesty, TPP enabling, Teddy Bear Ted.
