Rush thinks O'Keefe was performing a public service for voters
Edited on Fri Jan-29-10 02:16 AM by Adenoid_Hynkel
It really is Bizarro Earth over there, isn't it?

"I bet you... I don't know this. I'm just speculating. But I'll bet you O'Keefe and his buddy who posed as telephone repairmen were in there to try to find out if somebody had jimmied with the lines so that constituents could not call the office and complain. 'Cause remember, during amnesty a couple summers ago, nobody had trouble getting through, and the members of Congress (House and Senate both) got fed up with it. But it was enough to convince everybody not to vote for it.

It was put together behind closed doors, just like the Senate was. I've always... During the August recess and during the last fall, I was always puzzled. Why in the world...? Michele Bachmann called and a couple other people called and said, "Look, these phone calls aren't doing anything. We have to have people actually show up. We have to have people show up in the Capitol and eyeball these people, congressmen and senators, and let them see firsthand the rage 'cause the phone calls aren't working and the e-mail isn't working."

4. When you break into an office
your reason is irrelevant. You have committed a crime. Fuck Rush and the ReTHUG criminals.

5. Limpballs sitting in his windowless studio in Florida smelling his own farts. As usual.

The standard Repug meme is that it's a citizens'
duty to break Federal Law because you think someone
is ignoring your robocalls.

I hope O'Keefe is dumb enough to say that in front
of a judge.

8. This guy is a madman. So, you find out the late night security guard leaves the bank door open
...then you tell someone 'the bank door is open down the street' and the guy gets a few of his friends and robs the bank. Then you go into court and say in defence 'i want to see the banks presidents tax return for the last 5 years."


Madness. They only thing that stands out is that what these bums did is far worse than robbing a bank.

9. They always think the end justifies the means. Like lying about WMDs in Iraq.
