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.

She just flushed McCain’s campaign down the toilet.

He is going to take a hit, that's for sure.

I TOLD YOU I'D GET EVEN!

  "The Photo looked suspicious with the “B” being backwards!!!"

While I was always suspicious simply because she refused medical attention and didn't report the crime immediately, the backwards 'B' wasn't a key at all in my opinion.  The orientation of the girl to the cutter reverses the letter.  IOW, if the girl and the cutter were aligned toe to toe and head to head the cut would not appear backwards... but align them head to toe and it would appear as it did.

But the whole thing still didn't sound right from the beginning. I didn't believe for a minute that she held still long enough for someone to cut a letter in her face. It just seems it would be an autonomic response to jerk your face from side to side if someone was cutting on it.

“The majority of FReepers were skeptical of the story once the photo was published.”

Yeah, but there was an hour and a half period before the photo was published when there was no reason to doubt it. Which is why Drudge should have at least waited for that. He’s the one to blame- and he’s going to drag a lot of good conservatives with him. He doesn’t see fit to report a lot of the other stories about Obama, but he throws up a headline with no fact checking at all when this story breaks.

“This does not reflect on McCain at all.”

You know that, I know that, but just wait till the MSM spins it.

I hope I’m wrong.

Are you using Internet Explorer? That may explain why you got jacked.

May I be the first to offer to REALLY black her eye?

Second after me.

I smell an Obama plant...she makes up story hoping news media will scoop it up, then retracts statement thereby sparking public sympathy at blaming a “black man for the attack” (reversal of the Crystal Magnum and the Duke Lacrosse team attack and shades of Susan Smith).

book her!

We have a saying in Los Angeles that goes something like this: fool me once, shame on ... shame on you. It fool me. We can’t get fooled again. We must not be fooled.

Or something like that. :)

“Drudge isn’t to blame for reporting a “developing” news story”

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.

I've got other Freepers denying that this flaming even took place, demanding that I show them where it occured.

The threads and the posts and the accusations are there, ladies and gents. Look for yourself...there's not much homework involved with this one.

My hope is that a lesson is learned.

“there are a segment of people who want to be outraged, and who will believe anything that feeds that.”

Those without sin, cast the first stone.

I saw the MySpace. Looked like her to me. Oh, a female might have lied about her age? Never happens.

[gulf1609]

I don’t even think she went to that much trouble. The eye looked a lot like smudged eyeliner.

[Hilda]

What an IDIOT! Now the RATS are going to use her to pretend that all the McCain supporters are like HER!

This creep just hurt the McCain campaign!

[Cecily]

That is hilarious.

[MountainLoop]

Maybe she should work for the Cynthia McKinney campaign.
