“And this liberal media victim angle is being played on Fox News and other GOPe media including talk shows and websites, in posts here on FR etc. etc. etc.”
Even Mark Levine, who said on Friday...”Any Republican candidate who piles on Ben Carson when the leftist media is attacking him, is a candidate I can’t support. I’m going to check it out tonight after the show. I don’t play that game. We can support our candidates based on ideology, but we saw something at the last debate that was very important. Al the Republicans pulled together to push back against a media that is destroying this country. You don’t pile on in situations like this. So I’ll check it out myself and report back to you on Monday. And if I hear one of these damn Republican candidates throw in with the tyrannical left in trashing this man-it’s one thing to fight on issues, but to try and destroy his character- well then we’ll have to talk to that person on this program, won’t we?!”
I use to have a lot of respect for Levin, but apparently he’s not researched Carson’s record. Carson is as liberal as the day is long....on top of being a pathological liar.
My concern is that something comes out about Carson that he can’t wiggle out of and it ends up undercutting Trump’s and Cruz’s criticism of the media, which so far has been very effective.
“Any Republican candidate who piles on Ben Carson when the leftist media is attacking him, is a candidate I can’t support”
Stupid and inconsistent statement. Does Levine apply that standard to ALL the GOP candidates then? I think not. Levine never has defended Yeb because the leftist media attacked him, did he?
In fact, does that mean we now can’t support ANY GOP candidate who says anything negative about any other GOP candidate, because, after all, the leftist media attacks ALL of them at one time or another?
Sounds to me that Levine is applying his “protection” standard ONLY to Gentle “Lying King” Carson.
