Naaa...He was looking for his own name. His handlers forgot to tell him he wasn't running again.

PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh police say a McCain campaign volunteer who reported being held down by a black man who then cut the letter "B" in her face has changed her story.
Police also say bank surveillance footage doesn't show her at an ATM where she initially said she was attacked.
Police spokeswoman Diane Richard says investigators gave the 20-year-old woman a lie-detector test and are "looking at some inconsistencies" in her story.
The student, Ashley Todd, of College Station, Texas, initially said a black man robbed her at knifepoint near a bank Wednesday night and then cut her cheek after seeing a McCain sticker on her car.
Todd, who is white, now says she was knocked unconscious and doesn't remember being cut in the face. She now says she only discovered the wound later.
No arrests have been made.

Ah. I'm now wondering how the "B" got there.

She did it herself, which is why it's backwards

Considering it's backwards, nutjob probably did it to herself in a mirror.

Wait....

If you think it was faked, then it must be true.
But it can't be true because the woman herself admitted it was fake.


Dammit. You're just messing with me aren't you?

Oh god guys, it gets worse. Much worse. TPM Election Central is reporting the following:

"John McCain's Pennsylvania communications director told reporters in the state an incendiary version of the hoax story about the attack on a McCain volunteer well before the facts of the case were known or established -- and even told reporters outright that the "B" carved into the victim's cheek stood for "Barack," according to multiple sources familiar with the discussions."

Columnist blogger Andrew Sullivan pointed out the following quote from Fox news executive vice-president John Moody, who posted this yesterday before it was confirmed that it was a hoax:

"If the incident turns out to be a hoax, Senator McCain’s quest for the presidency is over, forever linked to race-baiting."

Have you guys noticed that the rats are leaving the sinking ship this week? Oy vey.

Boy, inflation has really hit the make-up industry hard: Palin's make-up artist highest paid.

Still think she's a bargain, Moonie?
