James O’Keefe who blew the lid off of ACORN’s illegal practices while posing as a “Pimp” has been arrested for attempting to “bug” the office of U.S. Senator Mary Landrieu’s Louisiana office.

[Mr. K]

His work on ACORN was great but this was a pretty stupid plan

[Star Traveler]

Hoo-boy! Unfortunately he’s really gonna get it...

[achilles2000]

Too bad he didn’t manage it. Our distinguished Senators are thieves.

[Liberty Valance]

Stupid

He’ll be lucky if he doesn’t get jail time for this one.

[kiltie65]

I agree...too bad he got caught. “They” have been waiting to catch him with his pants down and “they” (all those in bed with Acorn, from Obummer down) will make sure he is sent up for a long time.

[Callahan]

Waiting on more details here but you are right. The Libs/MSM will be out for revenge on this kid.

[ccruse456]

So where’s the legal fund to donate to? Let’s go Tea Partiers, how ‘bout protecting our own instead of watching the wolves tear him apart.

Hope not. Doesn’t sound like they have anything on him besides standing in an office. Good luck FBI, if they do anything to this guy there will be hell to pay.

As I posted to an earlier thread, my view is they were doing a sting on the lax security in the secure building. That is the only logical solution I can come up with since they were in the building without ID for the “phone company” clothes and tools they were carrying. Gonna be intersting to see if they release the security point video.

[machogirl]

This was incredibly stupid, not to mention illegal, and he’s damaged his reputation and well as his previous stories about ACORN.

[machogirl]

This smells of lib payback.

[FlingWingFlyer]

O’Keefe should have realized that he was in Louisiana. Politicians in Louisiana know all of the “phone guys” there by their first names.

I guess O’Keefe has a stupid streak

[EternalVigilance]

These kids have watched WAY too much television.

Those arrested along with O’Keefe include Joseph Basel, Stan Dai, and Robert Flanagan. Flanagan is the son of William Flanagan the current acting U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Louisiana. All four are 24 years old and are being charged entering federal property under false pretenses with the intent of committing a felony.
