The FBI, alleging a plot to wiretap Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu's office in downtown New Orleans, arrested four people Monday, including James O'Keefe, a conservative filmmaker whose undercover videos at ACORN field offices severely damaged the advocacy group's credibility.
FBI Special Agent Steven Rayes alleges that O'Keefe aided and abetted two others, Joseph Basel and Robert Flanagan, who dressed up as employees of a telephone company and attempted to interfere with the office's telephone system.
A fourth person, Stan Dai, was accused of aiding and abetting Basel and Flanagan. All four were charged with entering fedral property under false pretenses with the intent of committing a felony.
He's done.

If true, what in the hell was he thinking?
And this will be used to totally discredit the videos against ACORN. :censored:
I wonder if this wasn't a govt led operation all along, just to "get" this guy.
I believe that arriving in such a place is a choice. Sometimes it is a series of choices, but still, making the right choices never lands anyone in jail.
Besides, if OKeefe would have me, I would so have his love child! He is geeky hot! :heart:
Sorry about the outburst folks!
And to attack Breitbart.

A lot of this just doesnt add up. I have talked to James several times, and he never struck me as stupid. This plan, or screw up, just doesnt seem to be on his level.
With or without his pimp outfit?
Wait a sec--what about me? Wasn't I geeky hot enough for you?
That depends, what's the airspeed velocity of a laden swallow? Huh? Do ya know? :popcorn:
African or European?
Personally, I would have used some Cubans for the wire tapping job....ahem.
We'll just have to wait and see what happens, innocent until something or other, right?
And Mrs. Schad....conjugal visits.
I'm just sayin'.
:bawl:
Well, I'll have to disqualify you..... :lmao: but you are geeky beyond reproach.
:bawl:
*Based upon published species-wide averages of wing length and body mass, initial Strouhal estimates based on those averages and cross-species comparisons, the Lund wind tunnel study of birds flying at a range of speeds, and revised Strouhal numbers based on that study gives an estimate that the average cruising airspeed velocity of an unladen European Swallow is roughly 11 meters per second, or 24 miles an hour.

Don't look now, but your inner geek is showing! :evillaugh:

Stop saying that James O'Keefe is hot. I am going to vomit.

schadie,
James is a cute geek. If I wasnt so old, I'd have flirted it up w/ him. Just saw a new clip w/ him saying "The truth will set me free." Okkkay....He is either a drama queen, or into some deep poo. At least he's out on bond. For now. Also, hearing more info about the other guys. These guys werent stupid, either. Weird.
I need to look up that clip, the optimist says he has something really huge on these crooks and the pessimist smells a set up. I'm interested in knowing how you met him, I love a good story. Feel free to drop me a PM. :-)He posted one tweet last night saying the truth will set him free. My inner optimist is waiting for more information.
I wonder if Okeefe ever tagged Giles??
She gives Schad a run for her money :fuelfire:

Level.Playing.Field.Please. :rotf: I have 30 years on that cute young thing.
The more I read about this the more pathetic the media's coverage of it has been. I am now convinced that these are trumped up charges just to discredit him.
U.S. Attorney Steps Down From O'Keefe Case (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/02/01/breitbart-defends-okeefe/)
The top federal prosecutor for New Orleans has removed himself from the case of four conservative activists arrested last week while allegedly trying to capture hidden camera footage in a senator's office, the Department of Justice said Monday.
A Justice Department news release said Jim Letten, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Louisiana, recused himself from the case a day after the Jan. 25 arrests in Democrat Sen. Mary Landrieu's office in New Orleans. Letten's top lieutenant, assistant U.S. Attorney Jan Mann, has taken over.
The news release didn't say why Letten removed himself, and his spokeswoman Anna Christman said she couldn't comment.
hmmm...
Is anyone surprised by this? If the ****ing law enforcement would do their job, yes their ****ING JOB, we wouldn't have vigilantism. Not defending what OKeefe did, but for ****'s sake.
Hot hot hot! :evillaugh:
Besides, if OKeefe would have me, I would so have his love child! He is geeky hot!
Level.Playing.Field.Please. :rotf: I have 30 years on that cute young thing.
Ya know, I wonder if the Feds are even considering investigating the criminal enterprise that is ACORN?
Oh hell, who'm I tryin' to kid?
:popcorn: :uhsure: Anyone else here see a strong resemblance between O'Keefe and the iconic geek in the ______ for Dummies books?
A couple weeks post-event, it's looking like O'Keefe and friends tried a hidden cameras stunt to give the lie to Sen. Landrieu's claim that she couldn't talk to constituents angry at the "Louisiana Purchase" because her office's phone system was screwed up. They entered an office that is open to the public, had no equipment usable for bugging and never actually did anything to the phones. The MSM, predictably, jumped all over the story and pulled factoids from their nether regions - claiming that they were trying to bug the offices. Breitbart's Big Journalism (http://bigjournalism.com/) site for the past week has been jumping all over the MSM and ProgMedia fools who published what could be, if not retracted, slander - the claims of wire-tapping and a more recent claim that O'Keefe helped organize a racist event.
That's okay Schad! Mature women with experience could make these youngsters blush and young men think they're in heaven!!!
