So, come to find out, Ben Carson was never offered a scholarship at West Point because West Point has never heard of Ben Carson.

Luckily for us, Carson did not claim that West Point is just forgetful.

Unluckily for us, Carson has an excuse.  He’s far too great to be expected to tell the truth.

In an interview with The New York Times on Friday, Mr. Carson said: “I don’t remember all the specific details. Because I had done so extraordinarily well you know I was told that someone like me – they could get a scholarship to West Point. But I made it clear I was going to pursue a career in medicine.”

I wanna know.  Is his name really Tupac Shakur?  Seriously.  We need to look into this.

And the latest:

Carson on Friday afternoon was asked by Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly whether he should have been more clear about the circumstances surrounding West Point in his book, and replied, “I guess it could have been more clarified. I told it as I understood it.”

He could have been “more clarified.”  You mean like butter?

Honey, this man’s understanding  is damaged. Bless his heart.

Thanks to every for the heads up.
