ATTACKED GIRL ADMITS IT WAS A HOAX!

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. More details to follow.

On the Intarwebs... everyone is an expert.

LMAO!!

No matter what “group” you could classify people into there will always be a few real “crazies” among them - due to the whole bell curve thing...

[Your Nightmare]

He didn’t “report” it. He put a big red headline on his page talking about the “mutiliation” of a young woman. That went well beyond what the link he provided even said.

Initially he didn't even have a link. Drudge obviously prefers to be first rather than right.

Ashley Todd, like Susan Smith blamed a Black Man for a crime that did not take place. And because of yesterday's FR's Hero of the Day, the headlines will read:

"McCain Staffer Files False Police Report Blaming Black Man for Crime that Never Occurred"

Susan Smith have killed her children but Ashley Todd just killed John McCain and Sarah Palin's chances of being elected.

[Your Nightmare]

She’s an idiot. But anyone who would change their vote because of her lies is a moron anyway. Thank God she’s NOT from Pennsylvania.

Come on you Texans. Take care of these loonies! ;)

We did. We sent her to Pittsburgh.

;-P

[calcowgirl]

Thanks for the update.

I think she is a disturbed young woman.

“Susan Smith have killed her children but Ashley Todd just killed John McCain and Sarah Palin’s chances of being elected.”

That makes no sense. Even the MSM doesn’t seem to be making a big deal out of this. No one who would have voted for McCain is going to suddenly not vote for him because of some nutters chick who he doesn’t know, has never met, and who he didn’t even defend. It’s a non-issue.

Note: “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.”

Also NOTE: “Texas A&M officials say Todd has never been enrolled at the university.”

I thought her story valid because of the venoum from obama supporters and have seen criminal cases where women are beaten up in similar fashion. (some real monsters out there)

now the question is where the attack on the FL gop candidate is real. (the one who was burned and is having skin grafts in the hospital)

[Pudding Biafra]

Unfortunately, the shoe fits.

Suckers.

[trumandogz]

Why is it yesterday when people believed Ashley's story that many people here on FR said that the attack reflected poorly on Obama and that the attack would hurt the Obama Campaign.

However, now that it is know that Ashley, a McCain volunteer set the whole thing up to blame a black man for a savage attack, some are saying that it will have no impact on the campaign at all.

Now, how is it that you do not think that racist Ashley's blaming a black man for a politically motivated attack will not impact that election?

[Drew68]

Glad we didn't climb on her bandwagon. We have seen this before but usually among lefty wackos. A good reminder that they exist on the Right too.

There were several of us on many threads yesterday who called B.S. on this girl's story, only to be accused of being trolls, DUmmies, KOS, etc...

Now we have folks over here trying to spin that she was some kind of reversedoublesupersecret Obama supporter. People need to get a grip.

[Scotswife]

“why not just let her write a book, like the Duke Lacross Liar stripper?”

Unlike the Duke faker - who had real victims, this faker had a fake victim and is a self-identified republican.
Hence the criminal charges.

Update: Google Pittsburgh ATM Sorted by date with duplicates included:

1160 hits, with 400-450 before the hoax unraveled.

That is 400-450 before (over a 20ish hour period) and 710-760 since (over a 3ish hour period).

[trumandogz]

I looked at your posts from yesterday and you like I were some of the first and only people to state that Ashley was FoS and it was all a hoax.

However, there were a lot of people on those same threads who said that the "attack" would hurt the Obama Campaign. Some even suggested that the "attack" be used against Obama.

Now, we know the incident was little more than a racist hoax intended to hurt the Obama Campaign, it is hard to imagine how this will not have negative impact on McCain.

[Purrcival]

Tipoff: The backwards “B” on her face, obviously done looking in the mirror. Idiot. Why did she think this was either necessary or helpful?

[Centurion2000]

i never bought it because the cuts were so light...someone who means it would have cut deeper

Well, I bought it .... so I get I'm taking a bite out of this.

[optik_b]

Fat too.

Everything probably affects the election in one way or another. I think this girl was probably just disturbed, although I suppose it’s remotely possible that she was a Ron Paul supporter, like the ones who let Code Pink into the convention. However, that seems a little too complicated a plot for somebody like her.

I think the Obama campaign won’t really want to get into it because it might also bring up things like the Tawana Brawley case, which of course is connected with Al Sharpton, who was until fairly recently often seen with Obama. And then of course, there’s the Duke incident, although I don’t think any of Obama’s current political connections had anything to do with that. But I don’t think he wants to revive the memory of Tawana Brawley, and this will certainly do that.

[Abathar]

For me it wasn’t the backwards B that I doubted, it was the depth of the cut.

I have seen what a knife can do if used as a carving instrument in flesh, and no way was an enraged man going to use what appeared to be a thorn and only scratch the skin like that.

I hope she gets some psychiatric help for a while.
