**BREAKING** Another McCain supporter attacked, has swastika painted on face.

[SoonerPride]

In 1989, as fascination with Downey's TV show began to wane, he was involved in an incident in a San Francisco International Airport restroom in which he claimed to have been attacked by neo-Nazis who painted a swastika on his face and attempted to shave his head. Some inconsistencies in Downey's account (e.g., the swastika was painted in reverse, suggesting that Downey had drawn it himself in a mirror), and the failure of the police to find supportive evidence, led many to suspect that the incident was a hoax and a plea for attention.<9> A few months later, the show was canceled.<9> Years later, during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show, Downey admitted that he had orchestrated the entire "attack" -- even shaving the front of his own head in the desperate effort to save his show from cancellation, by its syndicator, MCA. MCA already had problems selling the show to stations and to advertisers because of Downey's antics and the show's overall content.

9. Except I don't think this attack was a fake

McCain is way too crafty to trust some girl not to tell the truth. She is probably just an innocent victim of the thug he hired.
