[Wounded Ronin]

I was reading a blog at www.xanga.com/rpgpundit and the guy made a post about crazy anti-Obama people. It was a pretty entertaining post so I'll paste it here. You'll have to go to the actual blog to get the links to the original stories. I guess it's no joke...lots of people in the US literally seem to think that Obama is in cahoots with Bin Laden, or something like that.

The McCain campaign volunteer who claimed the other day that she'd been "assaulted by a black man" at an ATM and that he'd carved a "B" on her cheek after finding out she supported McCain has now admitted under police investigation that the whole thing was a deliberate hoax meant to try to make Obama supporters look bad. Here's the story.

"Ashley Todd, 20, of Texas, initially told police that she was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield and that the suspect became enraged and started beating her after seeing her GOP sticker on her car.

Police investigating the alleged attack, however, began to notice some inconsistencies in her story and administered a polygraph test.

Authorities, however, declined to release the results of that test.

Investigators did say that they received photos from the ATM machine and "the photographs were verified as not being the victim making the transaction."

This afternoon, a Pittsburgh police commander told KDKA Investigator Marty Griffin that Todd confessed to making up the story.

The commander added that Todd will face charges; but police have not commented on what those charges will be. "


Personally, I like the sound of "conspiracy to interfere with an election". I think we could even go so far as "treason".
But hey, thank you Stupid Lying Republican Bitch, you have given us Obama supporters more ammo now that your stupid scheme has been foiled.

Meanwhile, courtesy of this article, let's look at some REAL attacks on Obama supporters by McCain goons:


Sunday, October 12

In one case, an Obama supporter was shopping with his infant son when an angry McCain-Palin supporter rammed his shopping cart. Luckily, the police were able to identify the man from video of his license plate, and he was charged with assault.

Wednesday, October 15

In Greensboro, North Carolina, a reporter Joe Killian was kicked to the ground at a Palin rally just for doing his job. He was interviewing Obama supporters who were protesting the Palin rally after a group of angry McCain-Palin supporters warned him that Palin was the story - not the protesters. One McCain-Palin supporter was so angry at Killian for interviewing the Obama supporters that he kicked him to the ground - from behind.

Friday, October 17

Even Barack Obama's home state is not immune. Two separate homeowners in Villa Park, Illinois found death threats in their mailboxes that read,

Get the Obama signs off your property - now. Failure to obey this order will result in the immediate death of all family members.
Although both families vow to keep the signs in their yards, one of the families is now afraid to let their 7 year old son play outside in the yard.

Saturday, October 18

In Wisconsin, McCain-Palin supporter Ronald Goetsch physically attacked 58 year old Nancy Takehara, grabbing her by the hair and striking her in the face, while she was canvassing for Obama. According to Takehara, "[Goetsch] was telling us we're not his people, we're probably with ACORN, and he started screaming and raving. He grabbed me by the back of the neck. I thought he was going to rip my hair out of my head. He was pounding on my head and screaming. The man terrified me."

By the time Takehara returned to her home in Chicago, she had a message from Barack Obama on her answering machine. She called the number that had been left on her machine and talked directly to Obama. He reassured her and said that this is an isolated and extremely rare occurrence, but many Obama canvassers have begun to voice fear or nervousness about canvassing both because of a rash of incidents reported in the news and because of a notable change in atmosphere on the streets. Some who were previously comfortable canvassing along are now opting to canvass in pairs.

Saturday, October 18

Incidents have even occurred at Obama events. In Fayetteville, North Carolina, someone slashed the tires on more than 30 cars during an Obama rally, leaving women and children stranded. Lynne Steenstra, whose tires were slashed, believes it was meant to intimidate Obama supporters, to prevent them from casting their votes.

Sunday, October 19

The car of an Obama volunteer was trashed (rear windshield smashed, spray painted, stolen Obama signs shoved into the backseat) while he was out to dinner with friends.

Sunday, October 19

In Princeton, West Virginia, a crowd of McCain-Palin supporters gathered to heckle and intimidate mostly black voters as they arrive to vote at an early voting location. When journalist Christina Bellantoni asked the sheriff if the protesters were allowed at the early voting location, the sheriff showed no concern of voter intimidation and merely answered, "They're fine."

October 19, 2008

In Fairfield, Ohio, Mike Lunsford hung an Obama effigy from a noose in a tree in his front yard. He attached a campaign sign to a ghost figure, wrote "Hussain" (yes, it was misspelled), put a noose around its neck, and strung it up in a tree.

I have found no reports of Obama supporters retaliating or otherwise engaging in violence in this campaign.

Tuesday, October 20

A bear carcass was dumped with Obama signs strung around its neck at the base of the statue at the entrance to the Western Carolina University campus in Cullowhee, North Carolina, where tensions have recently been heating up between conservative locals and liberal college students.

October 21, 2008

Someone took an Obama yard sign and replaced it with a large Confederate flag in the yard of an elderly African American minister. That night, after the flag had been replaced with a new Obama sign, a car drove by several times, honking and yelling at the family. The next day, the car returned again, honking and yelling in broad daylight, "No Change!" while a reporter interviewed the family in the yard. The minister told a local reporter that he had a simple message to pass on to the culprit, "I love you, and God does too." The Baptist minister also told the reporter, "I feel like this is somebody with a lot of hatred in their heart. It's our job to help the guy try to do better in life."

I'm sure the lack of corresponding incidents against McCain supporters by Obama supporters is merely a liberal media conspiracy; surely Fox News will let us know what evil hijinks the Obamaniacs have been up to!

[Aphid Jones]

But but but liberals broke windows! They just hid the evidence!

[Poop Loops]

This isn't the whole story, either.

The lady who lied about The Black Man? She was a McCain campaign staff person. Further, the McCain campaign pushed to have the story publicized as much as possible. It turned out fake obviously, people jumped at the McCain campaign, and in turn those people said "We went with what the police were saying!" whereas the police never said anything.

It's a load of shit.

I don't care what kind of person McCain is, personally. I just care about what his Presidency would look like. And if he surrounds himself and hires people like these now, what's to say he won't when he's president?

This is where I'm from.

I wonder if those McCain supporters described realize that you don't have to be a muslim to be a terrorist.

Yes terday I tried looking for any reports on Fox .com for the story.Just to read for myself what if any.All I found were reports of the Police pressing charges against her.All the others seem to be gone.I'm no conspiracy nut.But it does seem that Fox might have removed all the old reports.

Also,I took a look around on the net on conservative Blogs just to read any gems people might have left about the story.I mean nothing pisses off conservatives more when they hear about a McCain campaign volunteer being attacked by a black man.

Yeah, you already forgot about the video footage I shot where an Obama supporter cried to the police that she'd been assaulted when a McCain supporter playfully poked her with a finger?

I see your whining and raise you a vagina with sand in it.
