Ben Carson admits fabricating West Point scholarship

In his autobiography Ben Carson wrote, "I was offered a full scholarship to West Point." But West Point says he's lying. "When presented with this evidence," reports Politico, "Carson's campaign conceded the story was false."

The real tragedy is that since Carson did not go to West Point, we'll never know how much grain is being stored in Egbert Ludovicus Viele's pyramid mausoleum there! (Photo Ahodges7/Wikipedia)
