Just as I predicted this morning, the broad who claimed she was robbed and then had a ‘B’ carved in to her face is a liar — a damn liar.

A campaign worker who claimed she was the victim of a politically-motivated attack in which she was beaten, kicked and cut, now admits that she made the whole story up.

According to Pittsburgh police spokeswoman Diane Richard, Ashley Todd, 20, told investigators today that she “was not robbed and there was no 6’4″ black male attacker.”

Todd initially told police that she was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield Wednesday night and that the suspect began beating her after seeing a John McCain bumper sticker on her car.

Todd claimed that the mugger even cut a backwards letter “B” in her check.

But today investigators say Todd confessed that the attack never happened.

At a news conference this afternoon, officials said they believe that Todd’s injuries were self-inflicted.

This kind of thing is such an outrage. We have enough problems in this country without some stupid b*tch stoking racial tensions with made up stories.

There really has been violence directed at McCain supporters, which makes this phony story all the more unfortunate.

Ashley Todd should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. It’s about time liars like Ms. Todd had to suffer some consequences for their actions.

I wrote yesterday about the woman in Pittsburgh who claimed she was robbed at an ATM by a black guy. After he took her money, he noticed she was a McCain supporter and he beat her up and carved a ‘B’ in her cheek with a knife.

After getting beyond the knee-jerk reaction to the story and reading more about the incident, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say she’s a liar. The ‘B’ in her cheek is backwards and looks exactly like she was looking in a mirror when it was done.

If she does prove to be a liar, she should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Emotions are already running high enough in this election without people making up stories of this nature.
