Conservative Pimp Arrested

James O'Keefe, the conservative activist whose undercover videotapes damaged the reputation of the community advocacy group ACORN, was arrested along with three other men for allegedly entering federal property under false pretenses. The men are accused of posing as telephone repairmen
in order to gain illegal entry into the office of Senator Mary L. Landrieu (D-LA) in New Orleans. O'Keefe was released on Tuesday on an unsecured bond of $10,000. If convicted, he's looking at up to 10 years in prison.

I don't really know what is going on with that. When some reporters questioned him after leaving the jail, I believe, the only thing he said was, "Veritas." Which means, "truth".

I do.

He did what he did to bring shame on an agency committed to helping Americans and he did so in a way that is illegal.

However, ACORN still lost it's Federal funding.


Of course what was caught on that tape was illegal, but it was gained illegally and would never be admissible in a court of law because of how it was gained.

Neither should we forget all of the good that ACORN has done for so many Americans-- how it has helped so many people!

Yea, gotta help those pimps. Great company, Jermyn. I didn't see one decent person manning one of those offices that were taped. Illegal or not, it was very telling.

Did you listen to every single video clip? I did. Listen to them and get back with me. If you say you did listen to them and are still asking me this, I question your judgment on the whole matter.
