Developing ... James O'Keefe, of ACORN sting video fame, and three other suspects have been arrested by the FBI for interfering with LA Senator Landrieu's phone system on federal property.

“Could OKeefe be that stupid, or is this some sort of frame up?”
He`s young and he became very famous very quickly. Dangerous combination. Yes, he could be that stupid.

We shall see.
O’Keefe may be the “Abbie Hoffman” of the New Right.
If so, we’ll be witness to a very interesting federal trial, a book deal and a made-for-TV movie written, directed and produced by Jimmy O’Keefe.
Can you say, “The New Orleans Four?” :-)
“but that doesn’t mean he hasn’t since forged a fast friendship with the second shooter.”
Oh, they just lived in the same neighborhood...;)
“Something stinks to high hell on this.
Funny how the FBI can target this guy but not lay one g.d. hand on ACORN or SEIU? Lousy bastards.”
No doubt!
Based on the FBI complaint, I don’t see O’Keefe & Company getting hit with felony charges, but then again this is corrupt New Orleans and a very corrupt Democrat Senator that will be calling the shots.
No surprise. Look who are AG and President?
The Democommies always use the Justice Department to destroy their opponents.
It would be nice if a Republican AG and President sometime in the future would start throwing a few thousand Democommies into prison for all their crmes against the Republic.
I know it won’t happen, but I can dream, can’t I?
I don’t want to hang James O’Keefe and his cohorts. I am properly somber and worried about the seriousness of the charges. The prospect of ten years in jail sobers me right up. I am worried about what might come of this. He is a young hero to me, don’t count me among those ready to hang him out to dry. I am hoping they really don’t have a case at all. I am hoping the government is over reaching.

It shows that your rationale for holding these boys up as martyrs is laughably ignorant.
> These guys would be heroes had they uncovered a scandle.
AN ends justify the means kinda guy, eh? Figures.
Yes, because people everyday dress up as repairmen and enter federal buildings.
Wake up. Or grow up. Whichever path brings you to reality the quickest.
Another Kool-Aid drinker, I see.
I think after Landreiu sold her vote for Obamacare, and voters called to complain, the calls didnt connect to anyone. The office responded the voice mail wasnt working correctly. I bet they turned the cameras on, tried calling Landreius listed number, reached no one, then asked for the number to the line on the desk, which worked (and probably unlisted)....the guy in the car was recording everything....
They havent been charged with wiretapping, just misrepresenting themselves as phone men.
Does that monkey-business rise to the level of a federal crime? Well, if they were indeed manipulating the phone system, or attempting to gain access to a secured area where phone equipment is located, they’re going to need some competent counsel.
if they were just doing what the fbi should have been doing to begin with... for the sake of the people... this could be the start of political prisoners in america.
