Dr. Ben Carson, a famous neurosurgeon that articulate conservative principles very well in his soft spoken demeanor, is the left’s worst nightmare. The mainstream media character assassination of Dr. Carson has backfired. Their lies were transparent and disapproved right away by most of the people. Many millions of Americans find his life story inspirational.The Ben Carson Flaps

Dr. Ben Carson's whole life has been very unusual, so perhaps we should not be surprised to see the latest twist -- the media going ballistic over discrepancies in a few things he said.
Years ago, when I was writing some autobiographical sketches, I dug up old letters, to check out things that I remembered -- and was surprised more than once to discover that my memory was not always exactly the same as the way things had happened and were recorded at the time.
In the current flap over some things that Dr. Carson said, the biggest discrepancy has been between the furor in the media and the irrelevance of his statements to any political issue.
For example, in a video that someone dug up, Dr. Carson said to an audience that his "theory" about the Pyramids is that they were used as storage facilities. He was smiling as he said this, so it is not clear whether he was using this theory just to illustrate some point. But, in any case, he was not claiming this as a fact.
