GOP candidate Ben Carson is certainly getting his share of attention from commentators on the left these days, all of it negative.
First, there was the hit piece that Politico did on him, which backfired bigtime.
The latest full-frontal assault is way dumber than a quibble over whether Carson received an offer to attend West Point. It was delivered by Oliver Willis, a “research fellow” at the George Soros-funded Media Matters, a group so radical that it once declared “guerilla war” against Fox News.
On Friday, Willis tweeted:

That tweet appears to have been in response to this:
Dr. Ben Carson, Board Certified Brain Surgeon. Ron and Rand Paul Board of Brain Surgery. https://t.co/T5gqlkuOhB

Willis wasn’t finished, however:

Willis later claimed that his barrage of tweets was all in jest:

In fact, it’s all part of the effort to demonize anyone to the right of Josef Stalin. One person observed:
