Physician sounds off on Backwards B lady

don't mind the blog -- read the comments:

"Sorry to say but as a Physician, those lacerations (if you want to call them that)could not come from a knife of any sort, sharp or dull. Also, from the way her cheek is manifesting as red and irritated (synonymous for scratches) makes it an easy prognosis for me:

This is indeed a self-inflicted 'wound' most likely done with either a paper clip or quite possibly a fingernail.

If you would look at the BOTTOM of the letter, there are 2 DISTINCT and SEPARATE marks (what did the mugger do? Go over the same area with a different line?). This is not plausible in any form.

This is a fraudulent attempt at falsifying an attack and is illegal since a police report was filed. Why was she allowed to 'walk away' from the scene or a mugging/attack?

She never offered a description of her attacker other than he was 'supposedly' an Obama supporter. Was he white, black, latino??
This is outrageous and demands further scrutiny. Also suspect are the blackeyes. Although real, the contusions are not reminiscent of a frontal punch as there are no abrasions/contusions above the eye socket (men have big, large knuckles) and the area around the eye socket is sensitive soft tissues. This woman is committing fraud via Munchhausen By Proxy and should be jailed for submitting a false police report/complaint. And the only reason WHY she would refuse to seek medical treatment is that she knows her story would not hold up under a physicians examination.

And no, I am not an Obama supporter, I am voting McCain but these false allegations and rumors must stop. As a Dr, I can not fathom why people go to great lengths to lie about being attacked.

Someone needs to have her examined for 'a possible concussion' from being 'punched in the head', that alone would have allowed the police to forcefully admit her as if she in some way passes out while driving home after the 'attack, the police department would be liable for allowing her to leave with possible 'brain trauma'.

This story is a joke and not funny people."

LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE! -- she needs to be Baker Act-ed for her own good, get some treatment for her Munchausen's.

1. That Idiot Girl Needs Help

Another brainwashed fundi

[Warpy]

2. That's what I thought when I saw it.

She scratched herself with a pin using a mirror.

The woman is sick. She's a white Tawana Brawley.

[FLAprogressive]

6. And what's worse is the freepers are lapping this up....wait 'til this gets debunked officially. nt

[Union Thug]

9. Or scrubbed vigorously with a pencil eraser. Sheesh. n/t

[TrogL]

3. A 23-year old physician?

At best she's in her first year of residency.

[FLAprogressive]

4. She's not the physician...the person commenting is a physician. nt

[Greyskye]

5. Are you referring to the info at the bottom of the OP?

The 23 year old referred to is the woman with the B on her face.

[Fleshdancer]

7. Not the physician, the girl who has the backwards B on her face n/t

[seemslikeadream]

8. Why do you always do that?

[Richard D]

Wouldn't what that girl did . . .

. . . be quite illegal?

[FLAprogressive]

24. yes -- filing a false police report n/t

[Tinksrival]

10. I have read a lot of political blogs and forums on both sides

and only freepers and PUMA's refer to Obama as "B" or "B.O." or Barry. I never see "B" used by supporters.

[mrcheerful]

16. Thats what got me too. I spend a lot of time sitting at free clinics waiting for the SO

to get done and so I strike up coversations with the people around me also waiting. 98% of them are afro-americans and never once have I ever heard one of them refer to Obama as anything other then Obama.

[renate]

11. I don't know how to grab a screen shot...

... or whether that's even the right word. "Take" a screen shot? "Save" a screen shot?

Anyway, someone who does know how to do whatever it's called should do it ASAP. As of a minute ago, that quote about lying is still up there but I can't imagine it'll be there for long.

[FLAprogressive]

21. saved

[FatDave]

28. Hey look! Next comment is by grantcart!

:toast:

[The Doctor.]

29. She meant a screen shot of the myspace page.

[dennysp]

12. That's so dumb. Any Obama supporter would carve an "O"!!!!

[Citizen_Penn]

19. She's an Aggie

and hasn't got to the letter in the second half of the alphabet yet.

Tolerance, people, really. She's self-mutilating as best she can.

What do you expect?

[Raschel]

22. I don't know if you intended that as funny, but that makes sense, now that you mention it.

[VeraAgnes]

13. Looks like a brand maybe by a chemical

it appears like a blister not a laceration wherein a scab formed. The black-eye has limited area bruising, rest of face is not puffy,....it's suspicious indeed.

[FreeState]

14. I hope she gets the help she so obviously needs n/t

[pleah]

15. I thought this story was fishy when I saw it on

earlier. I hope this is debunked quickly.

[FLAprogressive]

26. I'm sure this will be spread throughout the Gossipy GOPers mailing list

as the newest "chain email".

[Loki]

17. A black eye without any swelling???????

Sorry, but this doesn't pass the smell test.

[tkmorris]

20. I noticed that too

Now maybe, if the original injury was several days ago, but yesterday? No way Jose.

[Citizen_Penn]

18. Texas A & M

Where God would put the hose if she gave Texas an enema...

Damn I hate that town.

[dorkulon]

23. Well.. not "by proxy," just Munchhausen's.

"By proxy" entails hurting someone else--usually one's own child--to draw attention to oneself.

I agree though, that wound is not what you'd have if someone were carving your face with a knife.

[uppityperson]

25. As a nurse, I agree with this physician. She needs help.

[FLAprogressive]

27. More Comments:

"There is no way she got those so called injuries from any attack. And the B on her face: the attacker straddled her head?? You can't hold someone down while straddling their heads facing the legs. I mean come on.

She deserves to be thrown in jail for lying and quite possibly trying to make it into a black on white hate crime with the added bonus that it was a OBAMA supporter.

Only dumb@sses and fools would believe this concocted story.
And she will see a doctor tomorrow, almost 48 hours later?? Maybe she needs time to get her injuries more realistic but medical professionals wi;; see through the smokescreen if the injuries are too fresh. Hope they haul her @ss to jail ASAP."

"Obama supporters use an "O", not a 'B'.

That, and this really is a bit suspicious.

How far from the atm did she park?

"Stupid-I want to be a victim-far", or "I'm on at least one of the five cameras looking over the parking lot and street" far.

This has BS written all over it. Either that, or it was 'some Puerto-Rican guy' I'm sure.
