		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The ATM has a security camera, and investigators were trying to watch the video.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Trying? What, is it hard? Is it plugged in?</description>

		<description>After looking at the pic of Ashley Todd, a few things come to mind:

1) The &quot;assailant&quot; is obviously dyslexic, left-handed, and on a first-name basis with Barack Obama.

2) Man, the Red Sox fans are having a hard time getting over the Rays...

3) If Ashley had been better, she would have had the letter &quot;A&quot; scratched into her cheek.

but the thing I thought of first when I saw Ashley Todd was, &quot;yeah, I&#039;d hit that.&quot;</description>

		<description>I used that ATM/bank lobby for about 2 years as Citizen&#039;s Bank was my personal bank for a while and I worked about 15 blocks away during that time.  This is suspicious because unless Citizen&#039;s did a massive downgrade to their local security, they have external cameras providing roughly 270 degrees of coverage (the building directly abuts another building on side), and there are two cameras across the street.  There should be videotape of the incident.

Furthermore, Liberty Avenue, which is where the ATM is located, has decent foot traffic at 9:00pm on a week night.  It is not Time Square, or even Murray Avenue, but there are people out and about going to the bars, going to the coffee shops, coming home from the grocery store etc.  There should be witnesses as that piece of knife work was fairly well controlled and time consuming. The edges are rounded instead of sharp angles.</description>

		<description>Look, people grab signs away from you, yell stuff, etc. They do not, neither Republican nor Democrat Carve an initial in your face.

Ever since the idiots at McCain and Palin rallies were taped yelling threats or hilariously showing their Obama Monkey or telling McCain on a live tape that they are &quot;mad&quot; or that &quot;Obama is an Arab&quot;, Conservatives have wanted to play the victim card.

For whatever reason, college students make up hoaxes. Two different lesbians at my liberal college several years ago claimed to have been attacked, a kid at Princeton named Francisco Nava claimed liberals jumped him in December, and often the poor son of a bitch did the attacking to her/himself. For a day the kid is an important victim, then the cops, who always smell a dog dropping in the stupid story, get the kid to confess.

This is sad because sometimes people DO beat others because they hate them for what or who the person is.

But nobody gives a shit if you volunteer for McCain. Some people liked dying on The Titanic.

Threats and racial insults have been shouted at McCain/Palin rallies. Sorry for all those conservatives who want to be victims, and feel sorry for themselves, but this girl is lying.

If you want to feel sorry for yourself, and if I were a conservative I would, feel sorry for yourself because Palin is a liar and McCain sold his soul on e-Bay.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;The left-wing blogs haven’t had enough time to give this woman’s entire life the kind of scrutiny that Joe The Plumber got ...&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

Jay Tea, wanna take one guess as to who is linking to the woman&#039;s twitter feed, facebook and myspace accounts?

		<description>Um, I used to live there.  That very same street, in fact.  This is a street with people walking on it--loudly--up to 2 in the morning or later.

It is the main drag, well lit, and surrounded by bars.

It has a hospital about 2 blocks away.

This one is a total and utter lie folks, that&#039;s Halloween makeup.  Ever cut yourself on something?  I have--it&#039;s never looked that clean.

This is a pathetic attempt to scare that area&#039;s Catholic voters back to McCain.  Shameful.  Utterly shameful.</description>

		<description>Jay Tea&#039;s got a good point. Watching all those videos of the Good Americans at the Palin-McCain rallies, and how they responded to &quot;pallin&#039; around with terrorists&quot; and &quot;who is Barack Obama&quot; and what have you, it&#039;s absoutely impossible to believe that someone yelled &quot;Kill Him&quot; at one of those rallies. Impossible. Keep up the good work Mr. Tea. Oh, and thanks again for the Iraq Invasion and Deregulation and Wildly Regresive Tax Cuts and Monica Goodling and Alberto Gonzales. Thanks so much. They&#039;re so awesome.</description>

		<description>&quot;After all, it took a week or so for the Secret Service to determine the “kill him” accusation was bullshit.&quot;

You&#039;ve repeated this so much now that I think that you think you&#039;re making a point of some kind.  I&#039;m not sure what that point would be since these incidents seem entirely unrelated.

Or perhaps you could explain the equivalence of a McCain volunteer faking a violent mugging in order to slander OBAMA, vs a reporter mishearing (or maybe even inventing) a comment heard at a McCain rally.

I suppose you&#039;re saying that both sides believes in false incidents about the other side too readily.

Maybe if that &quot;kill him&quot; remark were the ONLY incident of McCain-Palin supporters saying nasty, violent things, you&#039;d have a point.  But there are hours of documented examples that make the one incident moot.  And it doesn&#039;t help that college Republicans have a bit of history about faking violent attacks on themselves right before election day.

I understand your desperation at clinging to this point.  You don&#039;t have much else and the entire country is about to repudiate everything you believe in.  That can&#039;t be easy for you given the shallowness of your world view.  But the incident you&#039;re pimping so relentlessly is at best irrelevant.</description>

		<description>&quot;The modern Republican party since Nixon is a truly horrible thing. Just horrible.&quot;

The party itself yes.  And its kool-aid drinking enablers like Jay Tea, completely devoid of any principle or integrity don&#039;t help.

I&#039;d argue that the majority are simply hard-working people with a different point of view.  People like Jay and SF give them a bad name.

It&#039;s been really fascinating this year to watch them hurl the same crap that&#039;s worked for 40 years, Dems are communists who hate America, and watch it fail so miserably.  Is it the message?  The messenger?  Obama?</description>

		<description>&quot;Let’s let it play out a bit longer, shall we? After all, it took a week or so for the Secret Service to determine the “kill him” accusation was bullshit.&quot;

Naturally. Because if the story is true, we&#039;ll already have the momentum up for accusing Obama of encouraging his supporters to &quot;riot, mutilate people and destroy property&quot; and if it isn&#039;t true, it won&#039;t matter because we all know that conservatives don&#039;t need any actual evidence to believe that Obama supporters want to &quot;riot, mutilate people and destroy property.&quot;

And, of course, if it&#039;s not true, a woman faking a politically motivated attack by a black man, would be exactly the same as a 30 year veteran reporter reporting what he says he heard at a Palin rally: 

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;b&gt;Times-Tribune Managing Editor Lawrence K. Beaupre said the newspaper stands by its story.&lt;/b&gt; He said Mr. Singleton, who has been a wire service and newspaper reporter for 30 years, was uniquely placed. “He heard what he heard. He reported what he heard.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Which was also the same phrase that another long-time veteran reporter, Dana Milbank, heard shouted at another Palin rally, days before in another state. (link above)</description>

		<description>Here is the news story at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/08297/922320-100.stm

The police sound a bit skeptical: 

&gt; &quot;This is what she&#039;s telling police,&quot; police spokeswoman Diane 
&gt; Richard said. &quot;We can&#039;t substantiate it at this time.&quot;

Doesn&#039;t seem to add up to me.</description>

<p>The police sound a bit skeptical: </p>
<p>&gt; &#8220;This is what she&#8217;s telling police,&#8221; police spokeswoman Diane<br />
&gt; Richard said. &#8220;We can&#8217;t substantiate it at this time.&#8221;</p>
<p>Doesn&#8217;t seem to add up to me.</p>

		<description>The modern Republican party since Nixon is a truly horrible thing. Just horrible. It&#039;s nice to see people have awakened and the Republicans have been called out for what they are (they are who we thought they were!), but what a shame it couldn&#039;t have happened in 2000. How much better this country and the world would have been. Things had to get this bad before we were allowed to vote for the smart guy. How unfortunate.</description>

		<description>The backwards B made me think of Morton Downey Junior and his Nazi symbol, but two possible explanations have come up:

1) The attacker was standing by her head, facing her feet, where he was not likely to be kicked, and scratched her that way -- it would have been upright to him.

2) The victim could have taken the picture of herself in a mirror.

Let&#039;s let it play out a bit longer, shall we? After all, it took a week or so for the Secret Service to determine the &quot;kill him&quot; accusation was bullshit.

		<description>&quot;Jeez, even Malkin doesn’t think this story sounds right.&quot;

If it&#039;s fake, it&#039;ll come out in due time.  Until then, we shouldn&#039;t assume that it is.  It looks bad all around, and it&#039;s unnecessary to question the story.  Because even if it&#039;s true, it doesn&#039;t say anything about Obama or the campaign.  Why would it?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;&quot;Of course, this story is still fresh. The left-wing blogs haven’t had enough time to give this woman’s entire life the kind of scrutiny that Joe The Plumber got for asking his questions.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;

  You&#039;re right. They still got to see what kind of counter tops she has.

Asshole.</description>

		<description>&quot;I have my own doubts about it, too… but as noted, the standard of proof in these cases has been tremendously lowered when the accused are McCain/Palin supporters, and I’m all for equal treatment.&quot;

I know Jay Tea is a disgusting lowlife scumsucking troll, but this takes the cake.  Lies are all you&#039;ve got and you know it as you watch the American people on the verge of rejecting your entire party and everything it stands for.

There are HOURS of video of the behavior from McCain-Palin supporters from rallies all over the country.  It&#039;s all over Youtube.  And the issue there is not that those supporters represent ALL supporters, but that McCain and Palin have been inciting this hatred and bigotry by calling Obama a &lt;i&gt;terrorist&lt;/i&gt;.

To somehow, in your fevered moronic brain, equate that with Obama getting people to engage in political arguments, and to twist that into him inciting a mugging is low even for you, which is saying something.

Even this IS true, it means nothing to the political discussion.  It certainly says nothing about Obama.  It&#039;s a terrible isolated incident in which the perp should be found, arrested, and serve jail time.

And if it&#039;s fake, then I&#039;d be hard pressed to see any moral difference between the faker and someone like Jay, with his complete absence of integrity or honesty of any kind.</description>
