No way, Jose. I want these fucks to get dragged through the mud until they cave in, because they fucking deserve it.

Me too. What did they know? When did they know it? Why did they allow this hoax to play out? Call records.

I want NDs image to be affected by what they have done.

Te'o admitted lying to his father, Brian, about the relationship, and confessed to embellishing details of their romance.
One of the most pressing questions over the last few days was why Te'o didn't visit the supposedly ailing Kekua in the hospital. Schaap posed that to Te'o, who said, "It never really crossed my mind. I don't know. I was in school."
Schaap said the interview was conducted without cameras because Te'o wanted the discussion to be in a "more intimate setting" and the lack of lights and cameras "probably made him more comfortable."
. Te'o strongly denied this, saying he "never" was part of the ruse.
Te'o said he "catered" his stories so people would think he "met her before she passed away."
Bad liar says what?

Te'o not first to be in online hoax

''If we shake the tree, we would find hundreds of thousands of people falling out of the tree who are experiencing something like this,'' said Robert Epstein, a senior research psychologist at the California-based American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology.
It's just human nature, Epstein said, something known formally by psychologists as ''confirmation bias.'' We watch the news that matches our political beliefs. We discount viewpoints we don't like. We ignore good advice and miss red flags, so we can continue believing in something we want to be true.
In Epstein's case, it was believing he'd made a real connection with an attractive Russian woman named Ivana he met online. In fact, she was nothing more than a computer bot someone had set up to respond to queries on an online dating site.
''A lot of people still make fun of me,'' he said.

Then again, I've never been told I have a huge number...

A single guy would probably point out that imaginary girlfriends will tell you whatever you want to hear.

Married guys know that's total bullshit. If we had an imaginary girlfriend she sure as hell wouldn't be able to speak.
