"According to WTAE's news exchange partners the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review Ashley Todd, of College Station, Texas, was using an ATM at Liberty Avenue and Pearl Street in Bloomfield just before 9 p.m. on Wednesday when a man approached her and put a knife to her throat.
Police spokeswoman Diane Richard said the robber took $60 from Todd, then became angry when he saw a McCain bumper sticker on the victim's car. The attacker then punched and kicked the victim, before using the knife to scratch the letter "B" into her face, Richard said "
"While the Democrat-leaning media continues to scare undecided voters with bedtime stories about some mythical angry McCain supporter whom nobody has seen, here is a real district attorney’s complaint documenting an unprovoked assault by an enraged Democrat against a McCain volunteer in midtown Manhattan: “Defendant grabbed the sign [informant] was holding, broke the wood stick that was attached to it, and then struck informant in informant’s face thereby causing informant to sustain redness, swelling, and bruising to informant’s face and further causing informant to sustain substantial pain.”
"On a Monday afternoon, September 15, 2008, three McCain volunteers were holding campaign signs and distributing leaflets on a busy corner of 51st Street and Lexington Avenue. As they were peacefully talking to each other, they were approached by a man who, in the words of the victim, provided the impression of “a rather benign, doughy-looking guy — not a person I would have expected to assault me.”

He rushed towards them, grabbed a McCain sign off a volunteer’s hands, and tore it apart. That didn’t seem enough. This is how the victim describes it:
I said, “What are you doing? You can’t do that!” And he was red in the face screaming, “You people are ridiculous!” And I said, “Yeah, whatever, but you can’t do that.”
So I reached for the sign that he ripped up, and he grabbed another sign, broke it, and ripped it to shreds. And when I said, “You can’t do that,” he took the stick from the sign and started beating me on the head with it. He broke the skin on my head, he scratched my wrist, and almost broke my glasses, and then he left.
I followed him down the stairs to the subway until I could get the police and I said, “You’re not going to get away with it.” And as soon as he saw the police he immediately went calm. He still had the stick in his hand, and you could see the injury on my face, and he admitted it. He was arrested. He actually said, “I don’t know why I did this. It’s just those signs, and this election, it has me so upset.”

Joe the plumber...poor guy. Its not that hes a bad guy, or asked the wrong question, he asked A question, and BHO finally came public with his socialism plan. Now Joe is getting so much negative press from the BHO media (NBC-MSNBC-CBS-CNN ect.). Why? because he asked a question? No, because BHO doesnt like how he looked giving his answer.
And on a personal level, we here in Minnesota have a Failed comic running for senate who says " I f**king hate those right wing motherf**kers". He hates me? He doesnt even know me, but hes made his mind up that he hates me, and felt the need to say so on a stage with a microphone. Is that working to help the people hes supposed to be working for as an elected official?
What country am I in?
Are we just going to start killing those with questions and opposing views?

Pittsburgh's KDKA is now reporting that Ashley Todd has confessed to making up her story. Todd, a McCain campaign volunteer, had initially claimed that she was mugged at a local ATM, and that the assailant became angry when he saw the McCain-Palin bumper sticker on her car and said he'd teach her a lesson for supporting McCain, then beat her and carved the letter "B" into her cheek.
"Pittsburgh police commander told KDKA Investigator Marty Griffin that Todd confessed to making up the story," the station's Web site reports. "The commander added that Todd will face charges; but police have not commented on what those charges will be."
I think the lesson here is that if you're going to carve a "B" on your face, you should practice doing it so it doesn't look like you did it in the mirror.
Apperantly, crazy isnt partial to 1 party or another.
The thing that really bothers me is how some people, due to the media bashing is my opinion, actually have moved from just a casual dislike of the opposite party, to outright vitriolic HATE. Yes, so much hate that they cannot stand to see so much as a small display for the other party without flipping out, issuing a diatribe of bullshit, and then acting out in some moronic manner. The media has fed this, the parties themselves started it with partisan politics to the exponential stratosphere, Nancy Pelosi is the poster child for it followed closely by her minion Harry Ried and Chuck Schumer...unbelieveable.
