McCain hoaxster admits making up story

Yesterday I told you about a McCain campaign volunteer who claimed to have been robbed at an ATM in Pittsburgh because her car had a McCain sticker. She claimed the attacker carved a 'B' into her face.

I knew the story was false because the 'B' was backwards and because surveillance video showed she wasn't even at the ATM when she said the incident occurred. I expected the right wing to rake me through quicksand when I called it a hoax, but apparently they realized they had no defense.

Turns out I was right.

Now the alleged victim has admitted making up the story. Charges will be filed against her for making a false police report.

The sound of the 'Price Is Right' loser horn plays: voopvoopavoop...

It also turns out that the so-called victim of this hoax robbery has a history of fraud. She once claimed to have leukemia, which wasn't true. She also claimed to have graduated from Texas A&M, which also was a lie.

In the meantime, the opposition was practically burned at the stake because of the media's initial reports that the robbery was real. So the hoax accomplished its goal - at least at first.

Police and the media must investigate to see who else in the McCain camp conspired with the hoaxster to orchestrate this fraud.
