PITTSBURGH (AP) - Pittsburgh police say a McCain campaign volunteer who said she was held down by a black man who cut the letter "B" in her face has changed her story. 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.

Yeah... Neal Boortz was saying on his website this morning that it didn’t pass the smell test...

There is value in honesty. I hope it becomes a common thing again someday, from the average citizen to the highest official. May we elect such officials.

Seems to me that a quick check of the bank’s records regarding ATMs is in order. That should show where she was at the time in question, or at least where her card was. I don’t see why this should not be handled quickly. Find where the card was used and go from there.

Hate to say it, but the minute I say the so-called “maiming”, I thought we had a nutjob on our hands. Sad.

That's what I thought, too.

And now nyt, cbs, abc, etc., will stop ignoring this and broadcast it 24/7 as an example of mccain tactics.

It doesn't matter, does it?

The “kill him” claim had been debunked when Obama used it in the last debate.

Tawana Brawley II. I blame Drudge for over-reporting this and under-reporting verified attacks on McCain volunteers like the one in New York City recently.

This sounded like an Obama put up job from the beginning. Another phony story about the awfulness of the McCain supporters.

Care to explain the black eye and swelling on the cheek? I suspect that she was attacked. The remainder of the details are in question.

It was noted on the thread last night that some things in the story just didn’t add up correctly.

Did anybody else notice that the “B” carved on her face is backwards? Looks like it was done while looking in a mirror, hmmm...

You got me there, because the only possible way someone could get a black eye and swelling on the cheek is if they were attacked and beaten by a robber.

Like the emails, seems she was just providing some Obama boob bait for the bubbas. Lord protect us from our friends.
