FLASHBACK THREAD: "Backwards B girl"
Now, I assume some of you stay in this forum... I personally enjoy the challenge of debating the stupid right wingers... although it may bring me to an early grave, its still stimulating.

That said... I saw "backwards B girl" referenced a few times today by them. LOL

I thought it would be fun to remember...






PITTSBURGH (KDKA) ― Police sources tell KDKA that a campaign worker has now confessed to making up a story that a mugger attacked her and cut the letter "B" in her face after seeing her McCain bumper sticker.

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.

According to police, investigators working on the interview process detected several inconsistencies in Todd's story that differed from statements made in the original police report.

Pittsburgh Police Public Information Officer Diane Richard released a statement earlier today, saying: "Because of the inconsistencies in her statements, Ms. Todd was asked to submit to a polygraph examination which she agreed to do."

No photos of Todd are being released by Pittsburgh Police at this time.

2. Hmmm, her teabagger 'boyfriend' beat her up, so she
had to have an excuse to tell her parents? She will "face charges"? I don't remember hearing about any charges.

3. She faced charges. She saluted. She

executed a textbook-perfect About Face and walked away from the charges.


But this is just a guess.

4. I remember how upset I was with that piece of shit's story all over the media.
Two weeks before election. No charges, didn't have to plea to anything, record may even be entirely expunged by now. (Really)

I don't know if all of them have been TS'd or not.
