Now what if a black man fitting that description had been apprehended? This heifer would have gone on with the story and got an innocent person put in jail.
I think there is a story beneath the story. Something bad really happened to her, but she used this story as a cover, and it back fired. Something she did not want her boyfriend to know, maybe?
Wow, this Ashley Todd has really exposed the desperate, McCain idiots. You people actually couldn't even wait a day to find out it was a hoax... it shows just how much "research" goes into the smear tactics employed by McCain and his supporters.
I almost feel sorry for the republicans. They were really hoping this would be the clincher story. See how fast FoX news plastered this story when it came out without even waiting to see if it was true. Even John McCain and Sarah Palin personally called her to wish her a speedy recovery. More like to thank her for the hopeful boost this would give them. This is racism at its very roots. Just absolutely terrible.
Oh yeah, there's quite a history of made up crime where the fake assailant is the "scary, minority male." Charles Stuart is another infamous case that leaps to mind. In that case, the Boston Police even had a convenient black "suspect" that Stuart "identified" and was going to trial before Smith's brother spilled the beans and Charlie went bungee jumping off the Tobin bridge without a bungee.
Wow, I had to look that one up; I was only 8. The bad thing about this type of thing is that when something really happens to someone they aren't believed. Something happened to me when I was 7 years old right after the Tawana Brawley case. The person who assulted me was never prosecuted. To this day I believe it was because of that case. At the time I didn't know about Tawana Brawley but now I believe that justice wasn't served for me because of that case and the racial issues in the 1980s.
Ashley Todd confessed to making up the entire story, as I'm sure you are all now aware. I would imagine she has some emotional issues, and is somewhat pitiable, but what she did was pretty heinous, and could have blown up bigger if it hadn't been nipped in the bud by the facts.

Funny that the Obama campaign people quickly released a press message saying how sorry they are for the attack on the woman. This before even waiting for the police investigation to be completed! It tells how smart those people are! How is it going to be when Obama becomes president???

The Democrats had much more to lose in accepting the story as true. By doing so, the Democrats admit that it is very possible that a Democrat supporter would do such a thing. If I had been in charge of the Democrat organisation, I would have checked the facts and easily determined, like ten of thousands of people did, that this was a hoax, and stated that no Democrat would do such a horrific act. It's too late.
HOAX!! PITTSBURGH (KDKA) ― Police sources tell KDKA that a campaign worker has now 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.
I call BS. I would love to know how you 'scratch' a letter on a face with a knife. You are going to seriously cut the person's face up. Unless he used a butter knife. I would love to see the FBI give this 'victim' a polygraph test.

This thing that scares me is this is a no win situation. If McCain wins, America wins but this is the BS we are gonna see for months following the election. If Obama wins, half of us lose our jobs, and people will be doing these type of muggings for a living. Of Course had the woman been black and an Obama supporter the video would be on CNN, MSNBC, ABC news, CBS News, heck they might have pre-empted the world series to break this story.
She lied to detectives and didn't get medical attention but decided to TWITTER after the mugging? I hope they arrest her before she leaves pittsburgh.
i wonder if guy worked for mcCain i feel bad she got mugged i just wonder look at all obama set up that has gone on right here at you tube, i say no one should be mugged & if this guy did it he is sick & wrong wont change my vote though obama didnt do it just like the white people calling acorn with death threats or the guy who hung obama doll in his yard mccain didnt do it but i also must say if mccain hadnt spread awful lies hate maybe so many wouldnt be upset hope the racist are forgiven
For the record, Im not a racist, Im a truth teller. And I stand by what I said. If this particular story was not true there are many, many other similar violent stories are true even if they are ignored by the media.
The truth is, a staggering percentage of black males are violent criminals - and a huge amount of their crime is committed against white people. (1 of 2)
For example, Federal Crime databases reveal that a black is almost 40 times more likely to do violence to a white than a white to a black, and about 130 times more likely to rob a white than the other way around.
The statistics on Hispanics (especially illegal ones) are just as bad, if not worse. (2 of 2)
OOPS! Looks like the person who perpetrated the crime WAS apprehended and brought to justice haha.
