On Ashley Todd, with her make believe black attacker:
I was believing everything until she said the big ol black man wore “shiny shoes” and had on bicycle shorts. Oh you were attacked by Bobby Brown?
Whoever you are, I love you.

They are playing out every fantasy imaginable in order to hide from the oncoming train that is the Novemeber election.

The GOP has now turned itself into a party of nutjobs, liars, cheats, and sheep. The last 12 years of Republican governance has ensured that the GOP will wonder the wilderness for the next 40.

However it is quite another story when the campaign itself (I think it was the McCain's campaign PA communications director) throw in additional lies when talking with the press to hurt Obama even more.

Rather than treat this girl (and she does seem like a girl, not a woman) and situation with sensitivity the McCain campaign tried to use it to full effect for their benefit.

After seeing how McCain and Palin encourage division to garner votes, and then to see Obama quieting his own supporters whenever they boo McCain, I have no doubt that if the rolls were reversed Obama would not have used a similar incident to gain votes.

I wonder if they found out on their own that she was hoaxing, but no one else knew…if it wouldn't be the top most-scary “authentic” story of the election?

Hey, I've got a batch of newborn puppies that Obama just killed with his bare hands and drank the blood of. Maybe I can make a million bucks with that scoop eh? McCain supporters are getting way desperate to get their boy in the Whitehouse.
