I think Carson may have exaggerated a bit, but he didn&amp;#8217;t fabricate this story, which is what I assumed from reading Politico&amp;#8217;s take on the story. I want to apologize to readers and to Dr. Carson for that assertion, and I am also noting this in a Jazz Shaw post that will go up in a more timely manner on 11/9.]]&gt;</description><pubDate>Fri, 06 Nov 2015 12:01:45 -0500</pubDate><creator xmlns="dc">&lt;![CDATA[Ed Morrissey]]&gt;</creator><enclosure url="" type="image/jpeg" length="123" /><link>https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2015/11/06/uh-oh-carson-admits-fabricating-west-point-acceptance-n228656</link></item></channel></rss>
