Where was this type of investigation when democrat operatives actually recorded the cell phone conversations of 2 Republican senators/representatives during the Clintoon administration? The consequences--if any--were minor to the democrats involved.

Secondly, O'Keefe is represented by the FBI to have aided and abetted the 2 phoney repairmen. Does video recording of any individual in a public building constitute "aiding and abetting"? I don't think so. Did O'Keefe participate in the manipulation of the phones, or block any staffer's view of activities performed by the repairmen? I don't think so. If I witness a bank robbery and take photos of the robbers with my cell phone am I aiding and abetting them? If ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC or CNN did this ( and they have done stuff like this before) they would be screaming "Hands off us! We're Investigative Journalists".

Another left-wing media double standard.

Hey now, the old coots who taped Newt Gingrich’s phone call(s) were eventually fined $500.

I agree.
What happened to investigative journalism?
