The only thing I can think of is that they were making a film about the Senator’s phone systems, with the fake phone repairmen there as props, in order to make a point about the Senator’s office never answering the phone when angry constituents call — ie the phones must be “broken”.
That’s the only halfway innocent explanation I can think of.
LOL! Get this idea to his lawyers, pronto!
was thinking that he was making an undercover investigative report about how lax the security is at Senate offices.. like those newspaper guys who try and sneak a gun onto a plane to prove we need more security..
Well I’m reading through the comments about this and I’ll not say I agree with you. I WILL say that I’m not buying that that group was actually going to tap a senator’s phone.
Hey, anything’s possible but damn, tapping a senator’s phone is right serious, not the stuff of amateurs.
So I’d suggest that your assertion that it was likely some attempt to film activity involving phones....or maybe that group had wind that Landreau’s phones were already tapped and they were trying to get pics of this...but I’m not ready to believe they were trying to tape a senator’s phone lines.
Two guys are obviously all dressed up like telephone repair guys...they wanted to get near the phone lines of course. But why O’Keefe there, NOT dressed like a phone guy? There was no need for him to be there if the intent was to put a bug on Landreau’s phone, unless he was a distraction I suppose.
Point being, I’m not buying, for now, that they were trying to tape a senator’s phone.
And if they were, goodness me...well I just don’t know. They should leave that sort of thing up to the FBI methinks.
