What I’d like to know is when is Joe Scarborough going to map up and resign from MSNBC?

She had a black eye with a small cut on one side and the B on the other.

I read she went to the hospital today and had MRIs.

- One other thing, the McCain camp has spoken to her and made
- it public. At this stage of the campaign they would go to
- great lengths to avoid being embarrassed. I think they
- confirmed it before making their voices public.

My thought as well. No way McCain bets the ranch on a potential hoax.

Another thought (may have been mentioned, sorry if so)
I did a quick search looking for gangs that might use a backwards B.

There are such gangs. I would not let the backwards B be a reason to doubt the story. It is way to early for that.

He was a big guy using excessive force. She was probably frozen with fear. It’s sexist fo posters to doubt this woman. She’s got no reason to do a hoax.

Pittsburgh law enforcement sources tell TMZ they have serious questions about the authenticity of the alleged victim who says she had her face cut by a politically-motivated attacker.

We’re told there are several things about the alleged attack that don’t add up. A Pittsburgh PD official says they are conducting a “thorough investigation” and have not determined if the alleged attack is real or a hoax. But we’re told there is definitely a level of skepticism.

It looks to me he was going to carve the other cheek too. Maybe he ran out of time to do an “O”. Seriesly. The wound on the other side imo is the start of an O.

Her face and eye will be swollen by tomorrow. Getting one’s face cut feels simply wet initially, not pain.

It’s just another member of Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society expressing thanks for all that has been done.

“Which photo is the true representation? Do we know for sure?”

I recall reading one article that said the b was on the right cheek, which would be the backwards B.

some healthy skepticism= a good thing while all the facts are still coming out.

If this were a black woman, they wouldn't be questioning her veracity, and this would be leading on all news stations as a horrific hate crime incited by the McCain rallies.

What would be the woman's motivation? To get dragged through the mud like Joe the Plumber? And be treated as the suspect, as is what is already occurring?

I believe her until I see something more concrete than speculation from “law enforcement sources” telling TMZ.

Sexist to doubt her story??? Sorry, that doesn’t fly.

I have said I want to see further information, that means I have something against women?

It just doesn’t pass the smell test so far, I haven’t called her a liar, but I need more information before I believe this. Unless you know her personally, you can’t state she has no reason to commit a hoax.

I heard Lilek on Hewitt’s show tonight and he said he’s not sure if this is a legit story; we’ll see. Meantime though, Prager and others think if Obama does NOT win, there is going to be violence. Oy.

It would be beneficial to see another photo, pre-attack, of her to see facial symmetry and characteristics and how she parts her hair.

Either way, it could scar. I’m waiting to see if this is a legit story or an “urban myth” just beginning.
