wow to some of the posts.



Yes.

Especially the ones that claim in a desperate attempt to defend their candidate and/or his supporters that this woman did this to herself.

not unlike those mccain supporters slaughtering bears or hanging nooses eh?


Oh don't compare a ****ing bear or a mock noose to assaulting a human being! Obama worshipers are repulsive! He is a man, nothing else. And not even a very good man at that! You are being horns waggled and bamboozled.


LOL

Remember the mantra of the site please..

The backwards 'B' was the first clue... that and a dull knife would have done more than a scratch.

We all have our own ideologies but for pete sakes, deny ignorance, even in the face of blind partisanship.

I hope those members here who jumped onto the "angry and disgusted conservative" bandwagon learn a lesson here... it pays to look at both sides of the story.... not just the one that benefits your ideology, not just the story and you want here.

The truth does not cater to anybody, the truth is just.... the truth, whether you like it or not.

I admit, I was "angry and disgusted" after having read about cars being vandalized, calls of racism for wearing a shirt, and the beating of the woman in NY earlier in the week. But not at any particular group, just the individual criminals. So after a laundry list of stories like that I was ready to believe it, personally, because I was already expecting more.
What I found amazing is how many people jumped on the self-mutilation bandwagon before the picture, denial of medical attention, twitter feed, and everything else came out.
But yes, let me join in kicking the dead horse that is suggesting discipline. I mean look at me, I didn't post until it was over... Sure I could've gotten some points if I got in earlier but now I can avoid attention!

There is a good reason that people jumped on the 'fake b' bus so quickly. My cat scratches far deeper than that for fun. I get scratched at work and it at least breaks the skin. The next day, there is dried blood, and little opening underneath, a cute lil scab. And that is stuff that makes you go, "ow" and move on. Now we were supposed to see this BACKWARDS light scratch that supposedly happened with a knife during a struggle and you really think people needed to wait before calling hoax on it? Really? Seriously? You are kidding right?

To quote another topic - I had no idea it was this bad...

edit:
So, I wonder how much of that 60 dollars that was stolen will go to the Obama campaign? If all of it goes to it, does that make it ok? Seems to me that the mindset on the left for this election is that the ends justify the means - the end of course is Obama's election.

Several news reports are indicating the girl in question made this story up.

Hoax added to thread subject line.

Fricking hilarious how all these idiotic posts now have been turned around. So an asshole of an Obama supporter can be pointed at and lumped in with the candidate and other supporters. GUESS WHAT. That means now McCain and all his supporters are lumped in with this woman who is even # bags nuttier than the "imaginary mean scary black Obama supporter". There are not enough lmao emots to express how funny this # is. Morons.

Starred and Flagged just to show the idiocy of the people who tried to punish obama and the Dems for a fake story that now makes them look dumber than dirt.

And your point is????? You are surprised that people assumed that she did it herself (fake wounding). Is that not what I responded to? You are surprised that so many people thought that she did it herself before all the other stuff came out. Apparently you missed what I meant by fake. I meant it was a real B, just not really carved by a real mugger. Anything else I can clear up for you?

EXACTLY! It really seems to me that it should not matter who you support. If you are a real American Patriotic intelligent adult human being, you should question any story like this. You should question everything but I know that would be alot to ask.

exactly. And I'll add that there absolutely needs to be some accountability here. The media is not working right when it behaves this way. Now I didn't major in journalism, although I took a few courses in media, both print and electronic, and know that you don't go with a story until you have two solid sources and that your facts check out and that you have all of the information.

It's pretty clear to me what is going on here. You have "entertainers" who spew "opinion" for an hour on a station like Fox news, but who bill themselves as "journalists" and so get away with behaving this way. I submit it is just as if not even more careless and unethical. There needs to be standards put into place to put an end to this fraudulent and reckless activity. Well, and I think the folks at conservative TV and Radio know time is running out...I think we may see a return of the fairness doctrine, or at least some sort of regulatory commission put into place, possibly at the FCC to police this garbage.

In the meantime, folks who know better can get the word out and inform all their friends and family members about what is really going on. In the face of well funded managed perception it will be an uphill task for sure, but facts and reason are on our side. If they are like some in my family and friend circles who are Fox News junkies and Limbaugh lovers, it will be hard to break through the mental fog because they are literally hypnotized by it and buy the endless lies and madness hook and sinker. But until moral judgment, ethics and good old honesty prevails what more can we do but try?

If you ask me it is pretty scary. Not only do entertainers, failed ones at that (looking at you Fox and friends in the a.m.) bill themselves as journalists. But FOX fought in court and WON the right to report stories that are known to be FALSE. And they get to still call it a NEWS channel? And people still believe stuff they say? The news in this country is all so corrupt I doubt any of us see much truth in a day at all.
