Ben Carson's troubled effort to prove that he was, in fact, a juvenile delinquent


Well, this is a new one.

We’re accustomed to the media probing a politician’s past, reporting on some skeletons in the closet, then bracing for the almost inevitable response that the press accounts are erroneous, biased or completely fabricated.

But in the case of Ben Carson vs. CNN, we have a media outlet saying, “Maybe he really wasn’t such a bad guy” and a presidential candidate saying, “Oh yes I was!”

What?
