mccain supporters get crazier

[cacophony]

http://www.thepittsburghchannel.com/...56/detail.html

so this woman shows up at the police station with a fake black eye and a story about how a "dark skinned black man" mugged her and beat her up to teach her a lesson about voting for mccain. oh, and then he then carved a letter B into her face.

then the story changes, she refuses medical treatment, she adds details, she says the knife was dull and that's why it didn't break the skin, etc etc etc...

and the police, unsurprisingly, are suspicious.


this election has brought out the crazies in unprecedented numbers.

That's just mad.

I wonder if Jesus told her to do it?

help help a dyslexic Big Black Man™ cut my face with a butter knife...

Something that jumped out at me when I first saw the picture of her yesterday was that the "B" that this supposed angry black man carved into her face is backwards, as if it was....I don't know....done while looking in a mirror perhaps?

Maybe she was really attacked, but it is a bit suspicious.


EDIT - She's admitted that she made the story up!

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) ― Police say a campaign volunteer confessed to making up a story that a mugger attacked her and cut the letter B in her face after seeing her McCain bumper sticker; now she's facing charges.

At a news conference this afternoon, officials said they believe that Ashley Todd's injuries were self-inflicted. Todd, 20, of Texas, is now facing charges for filing a false report to police. Todd initially told police that she was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield and that the suspect began beating her after seeing her GOP sticker on her car. Police investigating the alleged attack, however, began to notice some inconsistencies in her story and administered a polygraph test. Investigators asked Todd to return to the police station today for more questioning and to help them release a composite sketch of the suspect.

When she did, police say she admitted that she made the whole thing up and that it snowballed out of control. Todd told investigators today that she "just wanted to tell the truth" – adding that she was neither robbed, nor attacked. Todd told police that while she did not remember how the backward "B" got on her face, she may have done it herself since she was the only one in the car when she saw it. According to police, Todd said she thought of Barack Obama when she saw the "B" in her rearview mirror.

Officials say they do not believe any other people were involved; and Todd's friends believed the story about the attack – encouraging her to call police.

What? A McCain supporter who places blame for her own actions on the media? It's unimaginable....

Here's a clip from CNN with the Asst. Chief Maurita Bryant of the Pittsburgh PD talking about the case.



She should just say what Al Pacino said in 'Heat'...'DON'T WASTE MY MUTHAF&*KING TIME!'
