assHOLE! assHOLE! assHOLE! assHOLE!

Fair's fair: the Dartmouth student mentioned in an earlier political post has disgraced himself and his school by admitting to being a giant lying jackass.

ATTENTION, EVERYONE: DO NOT MAKE SHIT UP. EVER. IT NEVER HELPS.

Christ on a fucking crutch, how stupid is this guy? I'm really pissed off at him.

NEW BEDFORD -- The UMass Dartmouth student who claimed to have been visited by Homeland Security agents over his request for "The Little Red Book" by Mao Zedong has admitted to making up the entire story.

The 22-year-old student tearfully admitted he made the story up to his history professor, Dr. Brian Glyn Williams, and his parents, after being confronted with the inconsistencies in his account.

Had the student stuck to his original story, it might never have been proved false.

But on Thursday, when the student told his tale in the office of UMass Dartmouth professor Dr. Robert Pontbriand to Dr. Williams, Dr. Pontbriand, university spokesman John Hoey and The Standard-Times, the student added new details.

The agents had returned, the student said, just last night. The two agents, the student, his parents and the student's uncle all signed confidentiality agreements, he claimed, to put an end to the matter.

But when Dr. Williams went to the student's home yesterday and relayed that part of the story to his parents, it was the first time they had heard it. The story began to unravel, and the student, faced with the truth, broke down and cried.

Idiots like him don't help those of us trying to highlight real abuses of government power.

I saw that in the paper this morning and I rolled my eyes so hard, the rattling was probably audible outside my head. What a MORON. As others have said, enough trouble without making shit up, ruining credibility, etc.

If he needed attention that badly, couldn't he have run around naked or something?
