Activist filmmaker arrested in senator’s office

Where did I say it had? They were charged with entering a federal building with purpose to commit a felony. 10 years. End of story.

Problem with end of story is they're having trouble finding any evidence to prove the intent to commit a felony.
 
*They were trying to show how easy it would be for someone with malicious intent to gain access to a Senator's telephone system, but had no intent to actually do anything harmful while they were there.

Yes , of course. And Pete Townshend of The Who band was only checking out child porn for a "research project".

Beyond hilarious.
 
Re: James O’Keefe arrested by FBI

So when the government taps our phones, it's legal. When we tap the government's phones, it's illegal. Is it me, or isn't there something a little ironic about the whole thing?
You're right, the government shouldn't be allowed to because it's a violation of our constitutional rights.
 
Is the main ingredient in gumbo bull****? Because you seem to always be full of gumbo, "blood".



Alright sparky, let us see how I'll destroy your arguments today. What rights of his have been violated? They were caught entering a federal building under false pretences and tried to tamper with government property. That in and of itself is a felony. No rights have been violated and your dishonesty has once again been exposed. Want to try this again?

Actually, the main ingredient is the rue.
 
Re: Activist filmmaker arrested in senator’s office

Hmm...so the hero that exposed the depths of corruption and moral depravity at ACORN got caught trying to plumb the depths of corruption of the Senatorette who sold her vote for $300,000,000.

The only thing he did wrong was get caught.
 
Re: Activist filmmaker arrested in senator’s office

how numerous, really? it seems to me that just as many politicians are corrupt. refresh my memory, was acorn found guilty of anything?

Yawn.

ACORN has been found guilty of voter fraud.

That's one link, one search.

And there's no doubt about the existing corporate acceptance of immediate corruption in it's lower exchelons, that's what the O'Keefe video's proved beyond the shadow of a doubt.
 
Nice try on making this thread about Acorn.:rofl

Fancy that. Charles Manson said the same thing after he got caught. :mrgreen:

And the police exonerated him of all charges as well. Thanks for the analogy.

Okeefe claims that he asked for a lawyer immediately upon entering custody, and was not given one for over 36 hours.

Re: James O’Keefe arrested by FBI

Another scumbag willing to break the law while trying to catch someone else he "hopes" is breaking the law. No-holds barred partisan politics continues.

It's pretty obvious this guy would get himself busted for doing the wrong thing. Anyone dumb enough to wear that pimp get'up he wore for Acorn is certainly not running on all cylinders.

It seemed good enough to fool the libs at ACORN.....

Okeefes problem was that he got a public defender and did not get his high priced watergate lawyer until after 36 hours.

Why not? Aren't we able to obtain the lawyer of our own choosing? I thought that was the way it went in America.

No not of your own choosing if you cant afford it. Him not getting his own lawyer on time was his own problem. The fact is he did have counsel.

Possibly, we don't know that facet yet. I don't like what he did here, but I do hold out that the enormous retribution against him stems from his outing of illegal practice by ACORN. Therefore, the media can't be trusted here to give the facts without bias. We'll have to wait and see.

And you cant count on Okeefe to be trusted to give facts without bias. Okeefe has shown a clear agenda. Not illegal practices Acorn filled out no paperwork. Low level staffers gave bad advice and were fired. I find it funny he wants the fbi to release his full unedited tapes but wont release the full unedited acorn tapes. He never actually showed up at the offices dressed as a pimp and he audiodubbed some of the videos.

Watergate lawyer?

And you claim to be a centrist?


If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed to you.

Since he can and he has, what they did was not lawful if true.

Yes watergate lawyer.

Michael J. Madigan the lawyer that was hired for Okeefe.

Michael J. Madigan - Orrick Bio

At age 30, he served as Counsel to Senator Howard Baker on the historic Senate Watergate Committee.

Calling him a watergate lawyer when he was a watergate lawyer has nothing to do with partisanship tex. So before sputtering about labels do try to research.

The 36 hours claim came from Breitbart because James had a public defender until someone paid for Madigan.
 
Yeah, the demo's are going to go down big if they continue to ignore the will of the people. however, Obama so far has lost his approval faster than any other President in history to date. I read an article somewhere where it showed that he was also among the most divisive to date. This IMHO, doesn't bode well for him in this era of growing distrust of Government.


j-mac

Would that include Richard Nixon? I seem to remember his support went belly-up in a small period of time too. Perhaps I should google. Didn't Clinton take a dive too? It would be interesting to find a graph chart on the president's of past approval/disapproval ratings throughout their terms.

That gives me something to do.

Be back later.
