That wil never be on front page of Drudge, NBC, CBS, CNN..... you get the point.

precisely why i find it stupid to put political bumper stickers on one's vehicle. you just make yourself a target of too many lunatics.

That is the most sensible thing I have ever seen you type nanc.

I had no idea that you had it in you.

This is difficult, but I agree with you on this 100%.

Now let's see you guys come up with McLame supporters who attack Obama supporters.
IF you have the balls.

I've given this carefull consideration, and have put Obama stickers on all the family cares. I'm thinking of going as far as trading the Camry for a 94' Caddilac. Safty over politics.

have at it, frank. find them and report them.

still, manypaths - it should be no reason to attack someone - under any circumstances. the right should be fully aware that the left will try to silence them with all measures available.

It would've been posted earlier, but the deliberation over whether I should use African American or another designation took a bit.

I guess he needed the money now, and couldn't afford to wait for his big middle-class tax cut, and new green job. Obviously, he's a victim of the Bush/Cheney economy.

Thankfully she's white. Otherwise it would have to be classified as a hate crime.

Why don't you? It's a blog, you know.

When you get back from robbing ATM's and beating up on women with bumper stickers you don't like, you can get a cuttin' and a pastin'.

Joe arrived at the scene and demanded she stand up.

Clearly this was orchestrated by McCain to make Obama look bad. I smell Rove.

I wouldn't put a campaign sticker on my car. Too many nuts out there. I feel badly for the woman in this story, but I'm glad she wasn't so seriously injured that she had to go to the hospital. At first I assumed the "B" stood for Barack, but now I'm wondering if it stood for Bitch? I hope she isn't pulling a reverse Tawana Brawley.

Well, it certainly seems to have set him off after he saw it, according to the victim.

They have a photo of her up on the Drudgereport....

After seeing the picture, it appears that the guy wasn't able to finish.

I am guessing he was going for BBW.

Thanks for the tip, Wisgod. She looks really banged up. It's a shame people can't have campaign stickers on their cars or on signs on their front lawns out of fear.

The McCain camp tells KDKA that the victim is a 20-year-old Republican from Texas.

According to a campaign spokesperson, after seeing her bumper sticker supporting McCain, the suspect said, 'Oh you're with McCain, you're with the McCain campaign? I'm going to teach you a lesson.'"

After repeatedly hitting, kicking and threatening the woman, the McCain camp says the suspect carved a "B" in her cheek for "Barack" Obama.

According to the police report, the officer confirmed that he "observed the wound on the right side of [her] face.

The unidentified woman reportedly declined immediate medical attention last night but said she would go to the hospital today.

Id he'd intended to mean Obama he'd have carved an "O". That's the way it is on 100,000,000 signs and we ads.

Maybe this was a gang symbol, or like GAL said implied "Bitch".

Clearly this was orchestrated by McCain to make Obama look bad. I smell Rove.

My first reaction to your post is that this would be an Obama supporter's way to spin this by creating doubt over what is a heinous act.

Unfortunately, we live in an age where suspecting political campaigns of orchestrating such things is not beyond the pale.

The only thing about the event that gives me a moments pause is that the young woman refused medical treatment.

I find this odd. The letter B was carved on her face. I would think medical treatment of some kind would be sought only to ensure that all action was taken so as the cuts would not form a permanant scar--that is unless the B is more of the handwork of the make up artist.

Overly suspicious? Perhaps. But it is hard not to be in this world especially during an election year with so much money and power at stake.

Cheers

In an official statement the McCain campaign says: "We're shaken up by this. It's sick and disgusting."

Governor Sarah Palin reportedly spoke with the victim by phone.

Meanwhile, late this afternooon, the Obama-Biden campaign released a statement, saying: "This is a horrendous act of violence. Our thoughts and prayers are with the young woman for her to make a speedy recovery, and we hope that the person who perpetrated this crime is swiftly apprehended and brought to justice."

Maybe this was a gang symbol, or like GAL said implied "Bitch".

Then why would the sticker set him off? AU, I don't equate this in any way, shape or form to Obama or his campaign staff. But come on.

Who knows? The guy was probably "cracked up".

One reason I only do drive thru ATM's after dark.

Beautiful
Woman

What's BBW?

It means Fat Chick.

But my first thought was also BITCH.

As has been said and is very appropriate, O is for Barack Obama, not B.

Nice to see the McCain camp jerking their knees already.

Don't they have anything better to do, like creating a message?

Yeah, fuck it. She had it coming.

Thanks, LARRY. I'm not up on every acronym.

I mentioned the other day my car was vandalized with a car key because of my Kerry bumper sticker. How do I know that? They wrote "FUCKING LIBRUL'.

People should be able to express their political views with bumper stickers no matter who's side they're on without retribution.

Drug addicts do crazy shit like rob people at ATM's an do what he did. Sick people out there. I feel sorry for this young lady. Horrible experience all the way around.

The attacker then punched and kicked the victim, before using the knife to scratch the letter "B" into her face, Richard said.

"B" for what?

bitch?
Bush?
Barack?

One thing I'm sure of, her attacker didn't mean the "B" to mean he was "bipartisan."

The McCain camp tells KDKA that the victim is a 20-year-old Republican from Texas.

I am also wondering about what part of the city she was in. This is not about blaming the victim by any means, but there are parts of any city that I wouldn't walk alone in at night, especially not to an ATM. Pittsburgh is no exception.

Yeah, fuck it. She had it coming.

#34 | Posted by wisgod

I didn't imply that at all.

But Palin called the lady? She should have better things to do.

Nice to see McCain and his followers making this political though. They got NOTHING else.

If she was in fact a campaign staffer, I'll bet Barrack would do the same.

Yeah, fuck it. She had it coming.

Of course not. Absolutely not. My heart goes out to this young woman, but young people sometimes do stupid things. When we were young, my sister used to walk at night through parts of the city of Pittsburgh that made me very nervous. One night someone followed her and then chased her. She was able to outrun him, but she got scared pretty badly and after that she wised up.

Gal, regardless of party someone supports, I'm placing 100% of this on the attacker. I just hope this doesn't escalate as we move closer to the election. We've had one incident in Wisconsin with the Republican at fault. I like to kid around, but this can get out of hand quickly.

She must have had it comming!

Sincerely

The vindictive god that butch worships

Wisgod,

Yes, the attacker is 100% responsible for his actions. Hopefully, he will be caught and tried and sent to prison for them. Maybe this young woman wasn't in a risky area, I don't know, but I just hope when either campaign brings in folks from out of state, they make sure they know the risks of area they are campaigning in.

Another great contribution from the President of the Miserable Existence League.

I like to kid around, but this can get out of hand quickly.

Agreed. I think stealing signs off on someone's lawn is unacceptable. I think keying someone's car is unacceptable. Beating and carving someone up is beyond unacceptable and into criminal and despicable.

because mccain haters are much safer than the rest of u.s....

I hope no one thinks I'm out of line for the Brawley comment. I grew up in Pittsburgh and lived near where the supposed Brawley incident took place, and when I read about the letter being carved into this girl's skin, the Brawley incident immediately came to mind. It wasn't a political reaction but a personal one.

you mean it wasn't just an ordinary american?

Nothing but a lying bull shit story.

wisgod - the new baby must be keeping him up at night. i forgive his idiotic rantings against me - it's better than his taking it out on his family.

He's that young? He seems like an old goat stuck in a nursing home.

A double mint moment with the juice of bull shit about this story.

moneywar - i'm leaning that way myself, although still awaiting more info.

Speaking of....

wisgod - men are able to reproduce well into their next childhood.

Yup, she was working for the Mcshame group and refused medical care!

Sounds like bullshit to me!

Anyway, my obama hand book says to "break an arm" when robbin' a whitey so this really couldn't have been a real mcshame hater!

after investigating the photo - it seems to me that she would not have scarring this soon after having her face "carved" - it would be at least a week or two.

something's rotten in pittsburgh and it ain't the philly cheesesteak sannies.

NOW WHERE'S MY CHANGE?!?

I'm having trouble believing this is true. There were no witnesses, it supposedly happened out of sight of ATM security cameras and she refused medical treatment. She claims not to have known the area but knew how to find the home of a friend living nearby.

In order for it to be true, the attacker would have to be capable of cutting someone's face after punching and mugging them, then leaving a "B" on the surface of a cheek that wasn't bleeding when cops were called.

If this is a ruse, McCain won't get 30% of the vote.

p.s. - who could possibly hold their head still long enough to have someone carve a perfect "B" onto their cheek?

i'm thinking she may have done this herself - now to figure out why.

She is too far out there even for Me. WOWZER.

This goes to show just how right the media truely is in reality.

The political stunt of bull shit is picked up by a tv station no less. Boy, still have the racial hatred and it is so grand that even the media resorts to lying.

If I could make any sense of your post, I'd respond. Put the newborn near the keyboard and let the kid make some sense for you.

FTFA: The Obama-Biden campaign released a statement, commenting on the attack. The statement said "Our thoughts and prayers are with the young woman for her to make a speedy recovery, and we hope that the person who perpetrated this crime is swiftly apprehended and brought to justice."

Spud concurs.

Spud also believes that while the robbery itself was probably real the "B" was most likely self inflicted.

The B is too perfect considering the scenario described and if you did have a B carved into yer face you would prolly not decline medical attention as this woman did.

p.s. - who could possibly hold their head still long enough to have someone carve a perfect "B" onto their cheek?

i'm thinking she may have done this herself - now to figure out why.

~nanc

Ya don't hafta think too long or hard, Nanc.

Yesterday this woman was an faceless anonymous McCain volunteer. Today she is famous. She's recieving tons of attention and support because of this story. She will probably continue to be a cause celebre on the right till her story unravels like Joe the Plumbers did.

All that sed, if story turns out to be totally real, Spud apologises for his suspicions and if it turns out to be a total hoax then let the chips fall where they may.

We can't be sure until either the woman confesses to hoaxing us or this criminal is caught and confesses the details.

The camera inside the ATM might hold a few answers.

Be Well.

Larry, just occasionally I wish you'd keep your fantasies to yourself :)

Sorry to any this offends (not) but I call pure and utter bullshit on this bitch.

I mean, for starters, it's obvious she did the carving herself looking in the mirror, or am I the only one who noticed it's backwards? No witnesses, and the whole thing conveniently happened off camera.
And has been pointed out, any real Obama fan would have marked the bimbo with an O, not a B. It's easier, quicker, and what people know.

I'm guessing she made it up to hide the fact that her man popped her one. But I don't for a second believe her cockamamie story about a politically motivated mugger? A tall skinny black guy? Uh-huh.

Is this Kerlee's long lost lovechild?

And finally, AntiAmerican, it IS on the front page of Drudge AND CNN. Funny how you lumped that hack Drudge into the "Liberal Media" though.

Not that I'm convinced, I went back and looked at the photo. If the guy was standing abover hear, standing over her head facing her feet, it's not backwards.
Sincerely, CSIgod

Great, another stupid reason for stupid people to decry Obama. I can just hear the chatter over tomorrow's coffee from idiots all over this land, "I hear someone who works for Obama is carving Muslim signs on people's faces just because they support McCain". Like this guy represents anything about Obama or his supporters. He's a cheap thug and acted like a cheap thug.

Was this just another 200 pound black thug mugging a defenseless women rather than a political episode? No. This episode gives us "Hope." It's progress and progress redounds to everybody's benefit. The alleged "victim" has contributed to this man's active involvement in the political process.

The idea that he is so "civic-minded" that he became infuriated when he saw someone was opposed to his candidate with whom

(The robber is described as a dark-skinned black man, 6 feet 4 inches tall, 200 pounds with a medium build, short black hair and brown eyes. The man was wearing dark colored jeans, a black undershirt and black shoes)

Maybe if he has a felony record and his State of residence bars him from voting because of it, the State can provide a pardon to him so that he can regain the full gamut of the rights of citizenship, as he seems so eager to participate in the civic process. Or the law can be changed to restore the voting franchise to felons, who have completed their prison term.

And while haters such as Rev. Wright may not act out their thoughts and beliefs, this thug is more "holistic" in living his life, and the thought gives birth to the act. So, we need to recognize this man as mentally and emotionally more well-grounded than some of those haters, who cannot act out their emotions.

No outrage here. Only understanding is needed. Ask a lefty.

There are, of course, usually other bits of information at a crime scene that either validate or disprove allegations.

And as you indicated the ATM camera may disclose the presence of absence of a black thug, or he may have operated beyond its range. Of course, if you were one of the pack howling for blood of the Duke students, and here you question the story of the white victim, it might be that you are moved to your positions by race rather than extrinsic evidence. Perish the thought that your conclusions are not pristine, and that they may be influenced by an underlying conscious or unconscious racial bias that underlies your thinking process concerning such matters.

I think the jury is out on her story. You may get to enjoy your morning coffee. Besides, this has nothing to do with Obmama or his supporters if some whackjob did this.

Johnson, you are truly an asshole.

Johnson, did you fail to notice that Nanc and others on the right are also questioning this?
Personally, I'm not, but to equate the actions of a cheap thug, with anyone or anything connected to Obama or his campaign is an act of douchbaggery to the nth degree.

Michelle Malkin suspects it's a hoax:

And how could the cops let her refuse treatment?

By the way, did you voice similar doubts concerning the story of the women, you know, the mentally disturbed whore who claimed that she was a rape victim in the case involving the Duke students? I can't recall your position there or if you stated one.

Spud stated no opinions either yeah or nay in re the Duke case.

Perish the thought that your conclusions are not pristine, and that they may be influenced by an underlying conscious or unconscious racial bias that underlies your thinking process concerning such matters.

Oh Tiny, you are as transparent as you are odious.

Could it be that yer special interest in the Duke case was because the "whore" in question was black?

Perish the thought.

Be Well.

I agree that there is something false about this. The backward B---just scratches instead of cuts(very considerate)--no investigation at a hospital. A generic description of a black man.

Put her on a lie detector and let's take bets.

It's not the story that's of any consequence, it's the response. Muggings and other crimes occur with great frequency. Most do not have a political component. In fact, some people use a political component to justify criminal violence within a society as Bill Ayers, the domestic terrorist does.

The claim is that this man was incesnsed by the McCain affiliation, and thus further violated his alleged victim.

I don't hold the Obama camp in any way responsible for the actions of this crazy if they did occur.

That the man would have been inculcated with hatred as the result of preaching by a racial agistator such Rev. Wright, and considers himself a societal victim, and justified in striking back, is another matter.

I am also bemused by the "traditional response" of posters participating here to allegations that may be somewhat suspect. I wonder how the critiques correspond to those of the posters in the purported, now discredited Duke rape case, in questioning the bona fides of the victim or in urging vigorous pursuit of the case. Are you folks usually circumspect in accepting allegations, or do you challenge them?

There is another thread on this blog addressing this very same case.

The backward B---
Posted by Buffalo_Bob

If you where standing near the top of her head facing her feet, would it be backwards?

I read this article and another one on this incident and took a look at her photo.

I don't believe her story. I think she's lying.

Here is her photo --

What garbage. Watch the video, full screen. How in the world did some using a knife create that "B" in her face? Was it a butter knife?

No one deserves to be attacked, but this reeks of self promotion and fabrication. Went back to her friends place, came back to the ATM, then called the police. The looks of the "B." The attribution of motive and awareness of the perp, during a robbery, taking time to see the McCain sticker and reek revenge on his victim.

It just doesn't feel right. It wouldn't feel right if it was an "M" either.

There are some sick people out there, whether it's her doing it herself or if it really was someone else that did it to her.

Agreed. But I'm going to be way more pissed off if this is another case of someone seeking attention.

I am not convinced either... Time will tell.

Apparently this is important to the conservative republican media, they all seem to think this to be real and worthy of national news.

Boy do we really have problems with our country.

She's lying.

I agree.

I'll wait for Shabazz, Jesse, Al and the rest of the respected black leaders to blanket the cable news before making any assumptions. After all their track record with the Duke accuser, the Texas robbers and most other racial victims have been spot on. Of course I didn't see them in Detroit when the 80 year old guy was being robbed in broad daylight in front of about 5 people watching.

Boy do we really have problems with our country.

TheSmokingGun has the woman's Twitter page before she hid it today, which includes a message she posted before the alleged assault saying that she was looking for an ATM and was "pretty sure I'm on the wrong side of pittsburgh":

Sure is sounding like a hoax. Why would she bother Twittering about looking for an ATM let alone one "on the wrongs side of Pittsburgh"?

If she had internet access she could have easily looked for another location, right?

A "B" would be backwards if you're looking in the mirror while you did it.

CC had a lot of good points in her post.

I really don't want to believe this is a hoax, but if it is, what have we become?

I don't disagree. But the initial reaction of a backwards B doesn't hold water. I would certainly think the police could determine in 24 hours how the wound was made. My guess is that they have her under the bright lights...

It would be a backwards B if one was doing it to themselves in a mirror.

Larry

One more point to the ones I made above--

Don't forget this "victim" was a female.

The cut was made on her face.

The first thing any woman would do after an assault with a knife on her face would be to immediately have it treated by a doctor to try and minimize any chance of permanent scarring.

The fact she sought no medical treatment for the cut tells me she made the cut on her face herself and probably figured a doctor would be able to tell the cut was self-inflicted.

She's lying.

Au, after how many lies you got caught in on one thread yeaterday don't cry, do better.

Wis,

there is no reason for this story to even make the papers.

The fact it has gained traction means the hackery is politically involved and what will be really interesting is when all is found out and the election is over nothing will be done with this.

The media will post these lies without actual research, the girl will laugh off the lying support show, and the only real losers are those who actually believe the story and the political separation being caused by such crap.

After all, we aren't trying to fix our problems with the nations, but trying to create a separation between the nation.

Thought I'd stick around to see how long it took.

Case closed.

The attacker was dyslexic. That explains the backwards B. LOL

I never left, twit.

AU, if your a good boy, I'll show you how to make I.E. automatically refresh based on a time you can define.

Except Drudge, Fox, CNN, et al, you mean?

No one touch this story?

Matt Drudge, ever the scrupulous journalist, is running wild with this story.

I see you haven't taken the time to read the entire thread. You can bet your ass if Matt Drudge is running wild the big media is too.

But glad you are so up as to think the small time DR is only one.

Hacking isn't good kung fu for you, maybe you should stay working and not try chewing gum at the same time.

What, some fat broad with a McCain sticker on her car cut her own face and even Michelle Malkin thinks she did it herself? She really refused medical after being "MUTILATED" at the hand of "some black guy"? I hear he "CARVED" it in there, like a jack-o-lantern and she wouldn't go get it looked at. Weird stuff. . .

Ah, the Smoking Gun:

i didn't know there was a "right" side of pittsburgh.

This is supposed to be the "victim" in this video

I was robbed at knife point. I pulled my side arm and shot the fucker. Too bad I hit the guy in the leg. He ran like hell with a 9mm bullet in his leg. Made it easy for the cops to find him. Just fallow the blood. That is one reason why I don't like Obama. He wants to get rid of concealed weapons permits. Without the gun, I could of been killed.

Libslayer

I believe you are a liar. If you had such a confrontation, there would be a police report. No police report--you lie. It would be reported in the newspaper. No newspaper report--you lie.

Maybe you were robbed at knifepoint because you had a McCain sticker stuck on your butt and it drove the liberal knife attacker to a frenzy. I hear that's going around.

You don't think anyone really believes your bullshit, do you? Really?

;-)

Say what you will it did happen. I never said it was politically related.
It made the local paper.

It also made the local news. But believe what you want.

She is reportedly in the process of changing her name to Martha Downey Jr.

A MySpace page linked to a 23-year-old Ashley Todd of College Station says "lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off."

Lib's story isn't that hard to believe.

I shot a home intruder a few years ago. Not because I was afraid of being killed (he was unarmed) but because he was a stupid fuck and too lazy to work for a living.

I wasn't trying to kill him but I did hit the spot I aimed for just to guarantee that he'd no longer be able to breed any more of his kind.

Got a thumbs up from the cops on that one.

It is funny to read all these lies from the obama hater republicans making up all kinds of shit just to make obama into this bad dude.

Notice, they say nothing about mccain and how great or positive it would be to have mccain in office.

It's not that they like mccain, they don't, they just don't like obama. Why, there is only one logical reason.....they don't like the Blackman, and is clearly starting to show the racial divide.

Maybe her attacker not only sucked at causing real damage, but he's dyslexic too.

You know for anyone who has taken a pocket knife to their face to remove an errant zit or blackhead knows that You have to have a steady hand in order to prevent gouging the skin creating a huge bloody mess. If this is true then that "Attacker" had a very steady hand or the knife was exceptionally dull. What a lying fink She is. Just like that one College Gal in Madison Wisconsin who lied about being abducted.

Larry

I am a McCain supporter, but I'm having a hard time believing this mainly because she refused medical treatment initially. I agree with you that if some whack job did this, it is not Obama or his campaign. On the other hand if it is not true, it is not McCain or his campaign either.

Babe,

I have not seen anyone blaming the mccain camp.

However, she is quite the volunteer for the mccain campaign.

Of course kerosene fires melt steel---

I know we all drift off topic, but for the life of me, I can't find the segue that brought the story of a knife attack to 9/11.

Only da bOoB . . . .

Knife wound brings red spot. Red spot is closely resembles an orange spot therefore it connects to 9-11. Oh and the fact that the emergency number is 911 compounds the linkage.

Her eye is not appropriately puffy for having been recently punched. The discoloring looks like mascara.

The "B" is backwards, as if it might have been self-inflicted using a mirror.

I calling a Tawana Brawley incident.

I saw this on CNN last night. The B on her face was backwards. How or why would someone carve a backwards B on a persons face? Either the chick did it to herself by looking in a mirror or you got some dyslexic Obama supporter's in Pennsylvania. At this point I wouldn't be surprised either way.

Poor Drudgeypooh and his sensationalism. Seems that the entire event was staged. The spin cycle maybe too fast and too close to the end her folks.

I know Drudgeypooh is a big fan of musicals and soap operas, maybe this could be married to the Joe 6 Pak, Joe de la Plummer, Anti-amerikan, Really real Amerikan tear jerker.

This poor little plumper could be the focal point sort of a Westside Story meets the dark side as she further carries the torch of goodness, creationism, unmarried gays, closed factories and forever is trying to just bleet out "Country First", only be drowned out by a background of communist terrorists chants.

Palin could do the "we're frugal" dance and Cindy could costume the whole affair with a sort of real small town Neiman Marcus theme.

Wait the big finale would be McCant floating from the heavens on a pink puffy cloud spelling out P.O.W.

Lots of Flags and old white people bringing up the rear.

Title suggestion. "Free dumb isn't free" or something like that.

Police planned to administer a polygraph test to Ashley Todd, 20, because her statements about the attack conflict with evidence from the Citizens Bank ATM where she claims the incident occurred, police said.

Hmm

Wednesday around 9pm it was something like 41 degrees.

I see you haven't taken the time to read the entire thread. You can bet your ass if Matt Drudge is running wild the big media is too.

I never said Matt Drudge was the only one running the story, MoneyWar. But clearly he was the biggest impetus for how much play it got in the media. He floated it above the banner with the picture of this woman.

Pittsburgh police now say they're going to administer a polygraph to the woman, because evidence at the scene conflicts with elements of her story. I think we can all see how this one turns out.

how do we know this guy isn't a peta terrorist

and the b represents bear

for the dead baby one in nc.

RCADE,

I am sorry if the implication came across as Matt Drudge being the only one, it was not my intent.

I was trying to show exactly what you have said in your 209 post. If Matt is pushing it, it is certainly going to be in the big show.

Yes, I agree it will turn out badly for this girl. From the very start most people should have seen this to be fraud.

It also show the crooked convoluted validity of Matt Drudge. Not too concern with good reporting that's for sure.

No, I kind of think this robber was thinkin of biden.

Find it real hard to believe ANYONE cut in the face in any way would not want medical attention.

'Salright, MoneyWar. I misunderstood your post.

If this really is a hoax, I think this may go down as Matt Drudge's worst moment in covering politics. Falling for a hoax this big -- with racist implications no less -- would be bad even by the lower standards of the online world.

A blog entry on The Young Turks has a picture of what it looks like when people carve letters in skin:

Wow. The Asshole Meter pegged high on Wisgod's #15 post...or was it her 15th post?

I agree that if this is a hoax, as it appears to be, that it is deplorable.

Just like the rumour that someone yelled "Kill him" in reference to Obama at a McCain rally.

It was also found to be false but I saw no expose by the media that it was indeed false and Obama, himself didn't mind repeating it during the last debate.

The B is backwards because she did it in a mirror.

Now its big and bold on Drudge Retort.

More than 500 newspapers and other media sites have run Ashley Todd's claim, most of which don't say there's any reason to doubt her story. Matt Drudge in particular isn't giving his readers any idea it might be a hoax.

That's why I floated the banner on this one.

TFDN, I mispoke when I said McCain rally. The story that was found to be false happened at a rally where Palin spoke. This was the story that gained headline news. That was the point of my post.

BTW, I don't believe anyone should yell out those kind of things against anyone. I'm sure if you could catch it on video you would find Obama supporters saying epitaphs like this, too.

Understood, Rcade. Couldn't the same be said for the story I linked?

This from the link:

The Scranton Times-Tribune first reported the alleged incident on its Web site Tuesday and then again in its print edition Wednesday. The first story, written by reporter David Singleton, appeared with allegations that while congressional candidate Chris Hackett was addressing the crowd and mentioned Obama's name a man in the audience shouted "kill him."

News organizations including ABC, The Associated Press, The Washington Monthly and MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann reported the claim, with most attributing the allegations to the Times-Tribune story.

A lying Republican? Shocked, I tells ya.

I love this shit! It was on MSNBC yesterday, it was all over the place in "fake america", the "liberal elites" in the media reported plenty on it. Apparently it didn't hit the news right away in "real america" and you hicks think it's some big conspiracy to bury the story. I'm not sure how some idiot cuting her own face and blaming it on "some black guy" is going to make anyone other than the lynch mob you were forming look bad, but there isn't a lot you folks do that makes too much sense to me. You ought to be hoping that it doesn't get to be any bigger than it already is, it's all bad from here.

Of course this story is a hoax. Nobody believes that a person fitting the attackers description memorized the alphabet all the way up to "B" before dropping out...

Thank you. Please tip your waiters and waitresses.

The story was on MSNBC this morning. Mostly because of the discrepancies between her different stories. The polygraph has been administered (it was done because of the big differences in her story each time she told it).

More to come, I'm sure.

"That's why I floated the banner on this one."

Rcade's a much nicer guy than me for even answering these questions. I would just say I did something because its my site and I felt like it. Plus, I'm not saying in this case in particular, but in many cases its one of the biggest biased hacks on the site demanding to know why Rcade isn't being "fair".

If you want editorial control of the site start by offering to pay some of the bills.

Oh come on! A black eye with NO swelling or redness? LOL! A BACKWARD "B"?! Puhleeze!!!!! A second-grader could do better in the make-up department! What is amazing is that the police didn't take some soap and water and just wash that 'black eye' right off! And excuse me - but don't all ATMs have cameras that record ALL transactions? Too bad she forgot that part....

"Falling for a hoax this big -- with racist implications no less"

How are there "racist implications" to this story? Because the alleged attacker was black? I'd say that's a "realistic implication," not a racist one.

Does it really matter if something like this is a hoax or not? There have been and always will be nutjobs out there. Does it matter what politician or agenda they latch onto?

If the story is true... That mugger in no way represents the Obama campaign or his supporters. If it's all a hoax... That lady hardly represents McCain or his supporters.

If some drunk driver barrels his car into a bunch of pedestrians, would it matter if he had a political bumper sticker on his car?

Just read the screengrab of this chick's blog on the smoking gun. What an annoying bitch, I'd carve her up just on general principle.

Sully, I appreciate Rcade being a nice guy. Of course, I understand he has a different view than I do, but at least he is more tolerant than most on this site. I'm sure he is interested in spirited discussion between opposing views or he wouldn't allow them.

"How are there "racist implications" to this story? Because the alleged attacker was black?"

Yes. Especially since, at this point, it's only an alleged attack."

"I'd say that's a "realistic implication," not a racist one."

You probably would have said the same about Susan Smith.

Police just confirmed that they have arrested the serial attacker. Apparently he's the same political operative that attacked Randi Rhoades.

Fucking Libertarians are ruthless!

First principles, Pittsburgh police. Simplicity. Read Marcus Aurelius. Of each particular thing ask: what is it in itself? What is its nature? What does he do, this man you seek?

I always carve my letters backwards.

"Yes. Especially since, at this point, it's only an alleged attack."

While I don't plan on wasting all day with you on this, explain how something only being an alleged attack means that it is racist.

Does it really matter if something like this is a hoax or not?

Um, , , yeah, I'd pretty much say it matters if "something like this is a hoax or not." If it did happen there's "some black guy" out there carving up white people for shits and giggles. If it didn't happen this lying sack of shit is doing her level best to show you what kind of savages "those people" are. Don't tell me that in her fucked up little head she wasn't thinking that this was going to change the mids of a few people in the voting booth. I can't believe you had to ask.

"I'd say that's a "realistic implication," not a racist one."

The whole fucking story is bullshit. Nothing realistic about any of it. Black guys don't go around carving backwards Bs on people.

I don't know if its racist or not but she obviously said the guy was black to make it clear it was an Obama supporter.

Sully, that is a racist comment. At least 5% of blacks are not supporting Obama.

The "B" was for "Banker".

What? You didn't expect them just to jump out windows these days did you?

Alternatively, the "B" could have been for Buffalo Bob, but I think he woulda used 2 B's.

What about the black eye? If this just happened there shouldn't be purple bruising yet. It takes a couple days for the purple to come up. And where's the swelling?

With only days left until an Obama victory I'm polishing up my "subtle" humor. I plan on making it a long 4 years for the more sensitive amongst us.

And I do believe if this is a hoax than it's indicative of the McCain campaign and the attitude they're fostering. This wasn't just some random lunatic off the street, this was a woman who worked for them, who they sent all over the country to represent them. You can't tell me this was the first crazy idea or statement she ever made regarding Obama supporters. You can't tell me she didn't have many conversations with other campaign workers about how Obama is a terrorist and his supporters are all dumb ni**ers and such. To me this says that the Pubs are breeding a culture of hate and slander and it reached a natural conclusion.

Does it have to be a "B"?

They should brand her face with a backwards "B" so that everyone knows who she is and what she has done.

"she obviously said the guy was black to make it clear it was an Obama supporter."

I don't see how that's obvious. There are millions more white Obama supporters than black ones. My guess is she said the attacker was a black guy to make the incident sound more plausible - since the majority of violent crimes are committed by black men.

The time has come for a citizens arrest of Obama.

Joe, you're just being obtuse.

No, I'm really not. I don't see the racist implications in this story. If I was going to make up a story about someone robbing me and knifing me, I would say it was a black guy because the story wouldn't stand out. It would be more believable. That doesn't make me a racist.

As if an attack by a supporter of one candidate on supporters of the other reflects on the candidate himself.

If the story is true... That mugger in no way represents the Obama campaign or his supporters. If it's all a hoax... That lady hardly represents McCain or his supporters.

I agree, however, many people here on the DR want their cake and eat it also.

If the lady is lying.....she is a representative of McCain and McCain deserves criticism for this act.

If the lady is not lying.....nothing critical can be said of Obama

LOL

She is just an attention seeker. I am sure neither campaign is involved in this. I think she never gets any attention and wanted a little bit of the limelight.

Mcadaver's Willie Horton moment-the niggers is goin' after the white wimmin.

And I thought I was joking last week when I said the GOPpers would sink that low.

I guess I misunderestimated the GOPpers.

Northguy types nigger more than I imply it.

"My guess is she said the attacker was a black guy to make the incident sound more plausible - since the majority of violent crimes are committed by black men."

I have never heard a story of a black man using a knife to scratch a backwards B on anyone's face (she obviously took care not to cut herself too bad). I don't think it has ever happened.

In fact, I have only heard of one person ever doing this and it was a white chick who did it to herself.

"If the lady is not lying.....nothing critical can be said of Obama"

And what, exactly, did Obama have to do with this?

The thing is, she wasn't just a supporter of McCain, she was a campaign worker. One who has traveled all over the country representing him. One who is fully steeped in the culture of his campaign. She obviously thought that this is something that would be acceptable to the campaign as she is an insider of that group.

"And what, exactly, did Obama have to do with this?"

#267 | Posted by Dave

Nothing. That was the point, retard.

That does it !!! I was going to vote for Obama but now I'm voting for McCain.

This and Joe the Plumber did it.

P.S. Las Vegas Odds are now 50-1 that this 20 year old female McCain Campaign worker won't pass her polygraph test and that she is lying about the whole incident.

(Carved a "B" in her face as she sat perfectly still for him letting him carve a near perfect letter "B" in her face....LMFAO !!!)

I mean, the Pubs are all about guilt by association, right? This is an associate of McCain, she may have sat in meetings with him, or help design strategies of his campaign.
Let's say the story is true, do you think that the person who could have done this is one that the Obama campaign would want around, who they would let in to their circle?

Unless there's a piece of the story I'm missing, I don't see how campaign volunteer equates to traveling all over the country as a campaign insider.

Interesting that the initial report of the incident on the Retort appeared on the back page and then eventually migrated to the front.

The report of the incident perhaps being a fake now earns it large, bold headline on the front page.

Not surprising, but interesting.

It earned 4 lines at the other Drudge. It's only fair that the hype and the doubt be publicized somewhere.

"I have never heard a story of a black man using a knife to scratch a backwards B on anyone's face"

I never said blacks were more likely to carve letters into peoples' faces. The point is that making up a story about being robbed and knifed by a black guy is not racist because it is statistically less of an outlier (and therefore more believable) if you say the attacker was black. If you're going to take the argument to the extreme and say that it's not more believable since you've never heard of a black guy doing this and that during the crime itself, then I'd say that since the situation is more likely to involve a black attacker in the first place, then the deviant attacker who likes to carve letters would also be more likely to be black by default.

"The point is that making up a story about being robbed and knifed by a black guy is not racist because it is statistically less of an outlier (and therefore more believable) if you say the attacker was black."

That statement, by itself, is racist. It's also sort of disgusting.

"then the deviant attacker who likes to carve letters would also be more likely to be black by default."

Most of your deviant attackers who are into weird torture shit are white. And that type of stuff doesn't happen during robberies. Plus "carve" is a bit of an exageration. It looks like she barely broke the skin. She was careful, which is unrealistic.

So my point is that this woman is an idiot who didn't spend much time figuring out how to make the story believable. The fact that she's told several versions of it, according to police, pretty much shows that she didn't think it through much.

"That statement, by itself, is racist."

How? Answer the following questions:

Are the majority of violent crimes committed by white people or black people?

Next, let's say for example that statistics show that 60% of knifings involve trait X and 40% involve trait Y. You are making up a story about being knifed and you want people to believe it. Will you say that the incident involved trait X or trait Y?

"So my point is that this woman is an idiot who didn't spend much time figuring out how to make the story believable. The fact that she's told several versions of it, according to police, pretty much shows that she didn't think it through much."

I agree entirely. I still maintain that it is not automatically racist, when making up a story about being attacked, to say that the attacker was black.

Nobody but Danni thought your comment was racist. And that says a lot considering the think skinned douchebags that post here.

Probably is an appeal to racism though.

if obama were not running for president then this tragedy would have never happened. I pray for a speedy recovery for this beautiful young girl.

"Probably is an appeal to racism though."

Nope. It's an appeal to facts. If blacks are more likely to commit violent crimes, then your story about a violent crime is more likely to be believed if it involves a black attacker.

This is going to be very disappointing to FOX NEWS, why Megan Kelly was almost in tears because the story is starting to fall apart, well Fox already gave the story the full BS yesterday they loved the story because it made Obamas campaign look bad....IGNORANT BASTARDS!!!!

"Nobody but Danni thought your comment was racist. And that says a lot considering the think skinned douchebags that post here."

Gee, there were exactly to posts after mine and one of them was Joe's.....not much of a sampling there is it 101???

If the girl had said she didn't see the attacker then it would not have been racist but to say difinitively that it was a black male was definitely a racist accusation, provided, of course, that her story is false.

Todd kept a blog on her now-locked MySpace. A copy of the blog's main page as it appeared on August 10, 2008 is embedded above. This passage from an entry posted July 1, 2008 jumped out at me: "Thankfully my closest of friends have assured me that when I finally am a victim of political assassination or brutal murder for running my mouth, that they will be honest at my funeral."

Nope. It's an appeal to facts. If blacks are more likely to commit violent crimes, then your story about a violent crime is more likely to be believed if it involves a black attacker.

That's not ignorance, that's calculation. They knew full well what they were doing.

"to say difinitively that it was a black male was definitely a racist accusation"

Again - you cannot say that with certainty. If you were making up a story about an attack, it would not be racist to use a description that is statistically the most prevalent in that type of case.

"explain how something only being an alleged attack means that it is racist."

Because the alleged attacker is alleged to be allegedly black.

Any proof of ANY of it? Because if there isn't, it's just as racist as Tawana Brawley.

" If you were making up a story about an attack, it would not be racist to use a description that is statistically the most prevalent in that type of case."

Sure it would, if the race difference is added for more drama and/or sympathy.

And yet - you already made the claim that it was racist without adding the "if" in the first place. So again - how is it racist just to say an attacker is black? If the only way it can be racist is when it involves a bunch of other factors you are now making up, then the discussion can be over.

"My point all along has been that it is not automatically racist to say that an attacker was black when making up a story about an attack."

#304 | Posted by 101Chairborne

She's now saying that she WAS raped. Do you think she will have her rapists baby if she's knocked up? The campaign she works for and is representing would really like it if she did.

"Then why would she choose that?"

Are you retarded? I've been saying for an hour now that if you want people to believe your made up story, it is not racist to make up a description of the attacker that most often commits that sort of crime.

"how is it racist just to say an attacker is black?"

Because IF it didn't happen, she chose to claim he was black for a particular reason. Name your reason...it's racist.

"If the only way it can be racist is when it involves a bunch of other factors you are now making up"

The only factor I made up is it might not be true. Hardly made up.

So this is what the great McCain campaign has been reduced to? Faking a hate crime to stir up racism?

They still can't give reasons to vote FOR McCain, so they have to fake reasons to vote against Obama. They have nothing else to offer.

You know, my father told me shit like this would happen, and I didn't want to believe it. I really felt the McCain camp was better than this, I did. And I'm not lying when I say it's sad to be proven wrong.
McCain has clearly conceded the election, and his only goal now is to throw around as many lies as possible, to tarnish Obama before he wins.
But it's not working. The American people aren't falling for it. The cops sniffed it out after 10 minutes. McCain's last throws is really pathetic to watch.

The GOP is going to implode after this, and they need to do some serious soul searching.

"The only factor I made up is it might not be true"

No- the factors you made up were that it is racist IF she is saying he was black just for added drama and attention. If you need to make up factors that are not present in the articles we have read, then forget about it. Either explain how it is racist on the facts we have, or STFU.

The smell might have had something to do with it, but I wouldn't even fuck that tire-biter with your dick.

"Don't you think it's racist to believe that the story is a fake? "

No, it didn't pass the smell test from the beginning.

Remember that white mom that locked up her kids in the car, put the car in nuetral, pushed the car into the a lake - thus intentionally murdering her babies - and then claimed a couple of black guys kidnapped the kids? From what I recall the media, correctly in my opinion, portrayed it as racist due to the fact that the woman was intentionally invoking fears of black attackers - i.e, a poor white woman attacked by the angry black man (see King Kong, Angry Joe). This kind of thing has been going on for over a century now and it used to result in lynchings.

Regarding this particular instance, I have yet to read whether her attacker was actually black. If she made up that part I would have to agree that it does drum up racist undertones. I think there is a lot more behind this story.

"Whites commit crimes like that as well, and probably in larger numbers just due to the population numbers. Try again."

I wonder if back in the days of Jim Crow when a white woman said a black man raped her...and then they caught themselves a black man and hanged him...even though he probably was innocent...even though later the white woman admitted she made up the story....if that was racist???

I guess that Southern woman must have known the stats.

I think Jesse Jackson was aware of these stats when he said he was relieved to see the guy walking behind him at night was white. Our blleding heart leftist-socialists just can't deal with the true numbers. That's why nothing much will change. Can't fix it if you won't see it.

#334 | Posted by MURPHY

If she had been on her back, on the ground while her assailant was standing above her head the B would be correct.

Her entire story sounds very unlikely, regardless.

She says she used her ATM card at an ATM. So it's easy for the police to find out if she really did do that. Then to find out which one it was. Then to look at the film of what happened when she was using it. Then they will have interviewed her.

Police are very experienced when it comes to whether somebody is probably lying. They have to be, the amount of BS they hear day in, day out. They want a polygraph test now before they take it any further because they must think there's a probable conflict between what she's saying and what they've uncovered so far. Add the backward 'B'. Add that she's 20 and a volunteer for McCain/Palin and alarms start going off. In Michelle Malkin's head, for one.

As WisGod said at #239, quoting Hannibal Lecter helping out Clarice Starling. "Read Marcus Aurelius. Of each particular thing ask: what is it in itself?". Hannibal knew a thing or two about BS and lying and how to recognize it.

To slightly misquote Hannibal from the same movie again. "Don't you think that there's something desperately random about all this?"

If she had been on her back, on the ground while her assailant was standing above her head the B would be correct.

-good point but improbable. The assailant would have to be on top of her body- looking face to face - in order to control her from getting up and running away. The assailant would not have stood at the top of her head with her laying on her back.

ACTUALLY it is "B" for BIDEN.

Mystery Solved.

I used to live in Pittsburgh. Those black people are NUTS. Not much better than a pack of wild animals. ... Not that there's anything wrong with that.

"If she had been on her back, on the ground while her assailant was standing above her head the B would be correct."

Must have been two assailants, one holding her down, the other leaning over her.

"Yeah, that's it. You mean I didn't mention the other guy? My mistake."

First of all, I did not say you are racist however, following your logic, anyone who is white and voting McCain is racist.

Second, you don't know who the fuck I am. I am white and starting in 1977, when I could vote, I was a straight republican ticket guy. Local, state and national elections, I voted GOP in all until 2004 when I opted to not vote because Bush had taken the republican party to a different dimension where it was no longer the party of conservatives and the party defending the constitution of the US. At the same time, having been a repub for many years, Kerry made me sick to my stomach.

McCain's vision offers nothing new with the exception that by picking Palin he has shown that he cares nothing about our country and he has copied much of the sleaze used by Bush / Cheney. This leaves me with a choice of Obama, who I may not agree with on certain policies but who, I believe, will manage America's future with more intelligence and care than what the republicans offer.

The attacker no doubt planned that she would try and resist or escape if he stood at the top of her with her on her back. He could have preemptively shot a tiny tranquilizer dart into her leg to temporarily paralyze her while he stood over her head and carved the backwards 'B' into her face. She would have only felt a tiny prick.

--Buffalo_Boob

From Goose's link:

"She initially told police she was standing at the ATM when a man approached her from behind, put a knife to her neck and demanded money. She said she gave him the $60 she had in her pocket and stepped away ... She now is telling investigators she was attacked on nearby Pearl Street after walking away from her car."

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight. AFTER, I'll assume, she was shown video from the time which didn't put her at the ATM.

"She has also changed her story to say she doesn't remember giving the attacker any money; she assumes he must have taken the cash she had on her, police said ... Police administered a polygraph test to Todd this morning, but declined to release the results. They plan to bring her in today again for further questioning."

She was close to her car?!?

Why didn't she use her antenna? That face-slashin' Obama lover would be in jail as we speak!

If she were carrying a car radio antenna, this never would've happened.

Waterboard the bitch, and let's get to the bottom of this. It's Friday, afterall.

Because if the dude only had a knife she could have been charged with responding with a disproportional amount of force.

You can't shotgun someone for firing a spitwad at you through a straw, right (excluding Texas that is)? Same thing.

She further goes on to say that this big scary brown person put his hand up her shirt and fondled her. Her story's taking on a life of it's own.

WTF????

Fredo,

Just a couple of points here. The local police are now saying that due to the ATM surveillance videos the know that she didn't use the ATM as reported. Her story is changing faster than the McBush campaign's messaging strategy. She's now asserting a sexual assault and beating away from the ATM. She says she passed out and doesn't recall what happened.

I said earlier that I was almost feeling sorry for McBush, it's great when you come along and restore my confidence that he really is as huge a gasbag as I'd thought and I can resume despising him. Thank you.

So I guess all race-obsessed liberals are done claiming this moronic woman is a racist just because she made up a story about being mugged by a black guy. Whew, that's a relief. Now we can count on them not to bring up race next time there is a story with the word "black" in it - right?

"So she took an eye-blackening punch to the face to facilitate a fake story about an attack???"

Its pretty easy logic to follow:

She's an idiot.

In her idiot mind, this fake attack could swing the election of McCain.

Isn't one punch to the face worth having your candidate win the election?

I'd take a punch to face if it allowed me to decide the next presidnet. Course my choice would be me .....

Tawana Brawley is working for the McCain campaign?

"So I guess all race-obsessed liberals are done claiming this moronic woman is a racist just because she made up a story about being mugged by a black guy."

The old, I posted last so I win the argument theory.
Nonsense, just because we tire of the argument hardly means we agreed with your conclusion.

A Pittsburgh police commander says a volunteer for the McCain campaign who reported being robbed and attacked near a bank ATM in Bloomfield has confessed to making up the story. Police say charges will be filed.

Now she can write a book like the Duke accuser.

So I guess all race-obsessed liberals are done claiming this moronic woman is a racist just because she made up a story about being mugged by a black guy.

Let's call it oportunistic rather than racist. I hardly doubt this woman was ignorant of how true racists would react to a story of a black man beating up a white woman.
She knew what she was doing, and knew how the story would be interpreted in "pro-America" areas of the country. You don't have to be racist to use racism as a tool.

I bet this is one of her mother's proudest moments.

I heard a rumor that this was BLT's grandaughter. j/k, but wouldn't that be a hoot.

I didn't realize at first that she was saying she was sexually assaulted. That's why she said the guy was black. Those dudes love fat white broads.

Not likely, this one is so self explanatory that Al and Jesse don't need to say a word.

"She must be a plant from the Obama campaign to make the McCain/Palin campaign look bad."

Those blog entry's were a stroke of genius, Carville. -The One

Joe the plumber, not a plumber - and the business he was going to buy not even for sale. Woman beaten by big bad black Obama supporter not really beaten by big bad black Obama supporter. Could we find ourselves in the myst of a right wing propaganda machine??????????????????

"Man, that Obama supporter must have really laid a beating on that white bitch. She's just confused and scared probably."

Nah, Chair. It was Joe the Plumber that did it!

FACT!

Could we find ourselves in the myst of a right wing propaganda machine??????????????????

Not with Sara Palin's IQ and her supporters yelling "Kill him".

I guess your right, its not a propaganda machine - its just the way these nuts are.....SCARY

Wow. This girl should be let go by the campaign immediately. But no worry, ACORN already is recruiting her - shes there kind of people!

All in all she is an idiot. Now she can write a book just like the broad who cried rape down by DUKE.

I blame this on the State of Texas. If you would have given fatso alittle more attention, this wouldn't have happened.

Well here's one poster that just assumed the story was true...

"When you get back from robbing ATM's and beating up on women with bumper stickers you don't like, you can get a cuttin' and a pastin'.

(Back from my vasectomy. That smarts!)

The reason I said it's racist to make a false accusation of being assaulted by a black man is because of our country's history of how interracial crime is treated. Several white female hoaxsters like Todd have claimed their fictitious attacker was a scary black man.

I hope she's arrested for this. I do feel a little sorry for her, though, because this idiotic stunt will follow her forever.

Another great Drudge "intellect" who thought this through...

"That wil never be on front page of Drudge, NBC, CBS, CNN..... you get the point.

No doubt Gloria Alred will be flying in on her broom to represent this crazy lady.

She wasn't a child. She deserves to have this follow her around. She should have to reimburse the Pittsburgh Police Department for investigating this bullshit.

(Until of course she comes to her senses and realizes that the beating she recieved has clouded her judgement and she really was attacked by this black brute).

There are people who heard this story and will believe it untill the day they die. They might even hear that she admitted it was BS and it won't matter.

Where's Johnson? Surely to God he's ready to apologize and take his lumps.

The same kind of thinking that went into this womans attack on herself is the same type of thinking that allowed 911 to happen.

This woman thought that the story of a black man attacking her in the name of Obama would change peoples perception about Obama enough to change their vote. She believed this enough to do damage to herself physically, and to the rest of her life because of the lie. Many people believed her story, and would still believe it today and forever, had she not confessed.

Same with 911. The administration knew about 911 long before it happened and knew who the perps were. That's why the famous "OK you covered your ass" line from Bush when he received one of the reports. Bush didn't ignore the report that said "Osama determined to attack United States"--he welcomed it. The attack would be perceived just like this woman's "attack" was perceived by those who wanted to believe.

No one was willing to believe the President of the United States would allow such an attack to occur, but history shows it has happened before. There is evidence FDR ignored reports on the forthcoming attack on Pearl Harbor. It is known that Johnson lied about the "attack" in Tonkin Gulf that never happened.

This type of "attack" happens is all too often in the real world. How many instances can you name where someone does something---and blames it on someone else--frames them for a crime they didn't commit. Osama didn't "confess" to the crime until 3 years later--just before the election to get his buddy Bush reelected.

Bush knew the attack was coming, and could easily have stopped it---but the attack fit into his agenda, and was willing to take a hit for it so his ultimate goal could be achieved--just like this girl. Her goal was an election---Bushs goal was a war with Saddam.

I would also say that either Bush shared the info with Silverstein, or the Isrealis shared the info with Silverstein, and he had the buildings wired--including WTC 7. He had months to do it--and most likely government help.

If there is one person on this planet that should be hooked up to a lie detector, it should be Bush. I would bet my life that he allowed 911 to happen.

And the resident Klanner weighed in with this:

"Was this just another 200 pound black thug mugging a defenseless women rather than a political episode? No. This episode gives us "Hope."
