Jonathan "The Other White Meat" Martin Gets It Wrong On Ashley Todd - Then Forgets To Admit He Was Wrong
Jonathan Martin, Republican hack reporter for Politico.com actually LAMENTED the fact that Ashley Todd's fairytale of robbery and assault by a black man turned out to be a complete hoax. He actually related the exposure of the truth as some kind of bad luck break for John McCain's presidential campaign.
Martin stated "Seems like McCain just can't catch a break. Pittsburgh station KDKA reports that Ashley Todd, the 20-year-old McCain volunteer who claims to have been mugged by a black man and had a "B" carved in her face, today admitted to fabricating the attack."
Not one word about how awful her actions were or the affect of her deed on the lives of African Americans or the attempts to smear Barack Obama with this made-up crime, just CONCERN for John McCain (who's campaign should have never mentioned the crime until all the facts were known) and Martin's generic recitation of the real facts of the case (after he had already reported the false story the day before). No apology, no reflection, no nothing!
He wasn't alone in rushing to report, but forgetting to correct and apologize, but he was one of the first to rush to judgment. Therefore, Jonathan Martin was asshole #1 to drink from Matt Drudge's poison pen cocktail. Hope you're choking on it now, Johnny boy!

This guy is a dingus, no question about it. What is it with Pennsylvania? First, this 20-year old twit fabricates a vicious, race-baiting attack, then the Pa GOP sends out an email to Jews in the area stating that electing Obama would be similar to time right before the Holocaust.
They have no shame. Really.
LOL Prof tracy please don't call him Johnny, you gonna give me a complex. Anyway the thing is that anyone really looking at the photo of her could tell that this was a HOAX from the beginning, first a backwards "B" then there is the fact that the wound inflicted was tentative as though they did not want to cause damage, not something you would expect from someone being sadistic... Couple that with the fact that too many of us are out here thinking right through here that anything that we do can and will come under scrutiny and will possibly derail Obama. Because you know as the old saying goes "When and where I enter"..... The fact that they will not print a retraction should not surprise you in that most of these so called moralistic people first know nothing of morals and then know even less of what it means to actually live out the morals that they profess. If I may drop something on my way out. Republicans are not Pro-life... They are and always have been Pro Birth. There is a difference... Consider it carefully.
