What's the bad karma quotient on this?

I saw this headline: "Mom Lies for Hannah Tix" on MSN when I opened my browser just now. A few months ago I toyed with the idea of taking Mimi to the Miley Sirus (or is it Hannah Montana?) concert but was saved by the fact that it sold out in like 20 seconds. I personally breathed a sigh of relief that I wouldn't have to face many of my most dreaded things at once: huge pressing crowds, millions of screaming little girls, loud teenage girl music, standing for an entire concert, and hellish concert parking lot traffic.

Apparently this mom didn't share my same relief at not being able to get tickets because she was willing to do whatever it took to get them for her daughter--even when it took making up a story about how the girl's dad died in Iraq.

Words fail me. Except to say I think this woman is a disgusting pig.
