Desperate McCain Supporter Faked Black Attack

The woman who says a Barack Obama supporter attacked her and carved the letter "B" on her face has confessed to making it all up!!

Even the Pittsburgh police department had doubts about Ashley Todd's outrageous story of being attacked and mutilated by a mugger who resented her McCain/Palin bumper sticker. It turns out Todd was NOT even at the ATM at the time she claims the attack occurred. Via TMZ:

The PD has released a statement saying "We have received photos from the ATM machine at the Citizens Bank and the photographs was (sic) verified as NOT being the victim making the transaction." ...

Thursday I read this story on Drudge and immediately thought "Tawana Brawley." It did not make sense that this "victim" would not be bruised in the face (only sporting smeared eye make-up), that the assault took place away from the ATM cameras, and that her "attacker" would stand over her face and "carve," without actually tearing the skin, a backwards "B." And further, why would you refuse any medical treatment?

I was feeling a little guilty about my skepticism until I looked at the "victim's" Twitter page courtesy of Malkin. MM says exactly what I was thinking:

"If I'm wrong, I'll apologize. If I'm right, will this woman? It needs to be said - and since it is not said often enough by those on the other side of the political aisle, I'll say it again: We have enough low-lifes and thugs in the world running loose and causing campaign chaos and fomenting hatred without having to make them up. I've been blowing the whistle on the real, left-wing rage not on the front page and in-your-face tactics throughout the election season. Hate crimes hoaxes - by anyone, of any political persuasion, and of any color - diminish us all." -- Michelle Malkin. Nice post.
