Huh.

OCTOBER 23--Shortly before a John McCain campaign volunteer was reportedly robbed at knifepoint and had a "B" carved in her face after her assailant noticed that her car carried a McCain bumper sticker, the woman blogged last night that she was "Stubbornly searching for a bank of america to avoid ATM fees" and had somehow ended up "on the wrong side of pittsburgh."

You know, that sucks if it's true. But I say "if it's true" because as jrosestar pointed out, the B is carved backwards, as if someone were ... say, looking in a mirror when they did it to themselves.

Then again, maybe watching five million Law and Order episodes has turned me into a suspicious bastard.

I don't even like football, but that's goddamn awesome.

Yeah, I feel bad that I have trouble believing that... but I have trouble believing that. IT'S FRICKIN' BACKWARDS!!!! Also, who uses the word "carve" of what looks like a cat scratch? Sorry, I mean a healed cat scratch.

I'm also glad to see that even some Republicans are crying wolf on the story.

I know, right? The whole story just reeks.

And she said it was a knife — a butter knife, maybe!
