It is war and sometimes people go above the call of duty.

After doing as much damage as possible. Paid off by being put on Holder's team.

“Letten has now recused himself from the case.”
Verrry interrrresting!
Well, he’s shown his asskissing bonifides to Holder so he’s in like Flynn and can recuse himself with no penalty points from the racist pig in chief.

US Attorney Leaves Landrieu Phone Caper Case [James O’Keefe]
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2442270/posts

NEW ORLEANS – The top federal prosecutor for New Orleans removed himself on Monday from the case of four conservative activists arrested last week while trying to capture hidden camera footage in a senator’s office.

The Department of Justice said in a news release Monday that Jim Letten, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Louisiana, has recused himself from the case involving the incident in Democrat Sen. Mary Landrieu’s office in New Orleans. Letten’s top lieutenant, assistant U.S. Attorney Jan Mann, is taking over the case.

The news release didn’t say why Letten was removing himself, and a spokeswoman for Letten said she couldn’t comment on the reason.

One of the suspects is the son of Letten’s Shreveport-based counterpart.

Another man who was arrested, James O’Keefe, has said the group wanted to investigate complaints that constituents calling Landrieu’s office couldn’t get through. Landrieu’s office has said O’Keefe’s explanation is feeble, and the case should be thoroughly investigated.

In the Jan. 25 incident, authorities said O’Keefe used his cell phone to try to capture video of two other men who posed as telephone repairmen and asked to see the phones at Landrieu’s office. The fourth is accused of waiting outside in a car with a listening device that could pick up transmissions.

No attorney for 28 hours. They were holding him as a terrorist suspect or what?
So the 0bamao admin is corrupting and abusing the patriot act?

Damn this is getting good.

What I'd like to know is where that self-styled FR lynch mob is this week that was singing the praises of Letten, while damning O'Keefe last week.

FReegards!

How else were “the people” going to find out why Landrieu was refusing to receive phone calls about her disgusting Louisiana Purchase? She lied, I believe, about her phones being jammed or out of order. She didn’t want to receive calls from “we the people.” That’s all.
