James O’Keefe and his Watergate Jr. friends, including PENIS MONOLOGUES guy and the one Facebook-banging Scott Brown’s daughter, have had their federal charges reduced to a single misdemeanor, for being assholes on Federal property. Smells like a plea bargain! Are they going to rat out their Overlord Andrew Breitbart’s illegal Sugar Caves, or something else? [Court .pdf, TPM]
O’Keefe & Friends Make Plea Bargain?

Freedum’s just another word for ratting out your boss.
Boo no jail time. I was really looking forward to seeing Jamie-boy shipped off to the nearest pound-me-in-the-ass prison. Que sera sera.
Christ, the elocution paragraph sounds like some 8th grader’s “What Me and My Idiot Friends Did Last Summer” essay.
When did our Justice Department turn all gay and socialist and forget how much they enjoyed waterboarding?
I have a law degree from Liberty U., so I have every reason to believe my assessment that these 4 are victims of ACORN’s and Obama’s Chicago Alinsky unrepentant thug laws against whitey is true.
See, being rich and well-connected has it’s advantages.
Kids do the darndest things, don’t dey?
“Smells like a plea bargain! Are they going to rat out their Overlord Andrew Breitbart’s illegal Sugar Caves, or something else?”
I don’t think so. This smells more like, “Flanagan’s daddy has friends in the AG’s office and got them all off with misdemeanor charges.”
But I hope I’m wrong and you’re right. A plea bargain to get someone higher up on the Fox Party food chain would be much more satisfying.
.
So they plead out like the pussies they are. Not surprised.
With just a misdemeanor, these guys will still be able to vote; boo, I say.
Besides, shouldn’t tough, principled, courageous conservatives have stood by their actions in court? Why, you’d almost think these bullies were really wimps once faced with real consequences.
Can I just say the fawning adulation Brietbart recently received in, of all places, WIRED magazine, made me seriously reconsider my subscription. I would cancel it entirely, except for the “Japanese Schoolgirl Watch” column. Seriously, I really would.
“This is the true story of four wingers, picked to live in a cell, shower together and have their cavaties searched, to find out what happens when property stops being polite, and starts getting real…”
[re=541990]Jukesgrrl[/re]: Maybe there are still some holdovers from the Bush administration still in the DOJ.
[re=541999]JGabriel[/re]: I wouldn’t give them so much credit for being organized. These people couldn’t find their own teabag with both hands.
I’m disappointed they’re not taking it to the Supreme Court.
Thank God this national nightmare is finally over!
[re=541990]Jukesgrrl[/re]: DOJ only likes to facilitate the waterboarding of Brown People. Whites give up too easy, not enough of a challenge.
Plus:
White person crime = misdemeanor
Brown Person crime = Terrorism!
Is that so hard to understand?
Do they get furloughed from their parents’ basements now?
[re=541986]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: I don’t think this was Jamey-boy’s last run-in with the law.
They have knowledge of Andrew Breitbart’s sugar walls? Eeewwwwww.
The healing process can start!
If I were a former employee of an ACORN office I would be launching my sue-the-living-shit-out-of-these-rich-crackers suit about right now.
Look at the bright (breit?) side: less chance for the four mouseketeers to play the martyr (going to jail made the careers of Chuck Colson and G. Gordon Liddy), no vomit-inducing legal defense funds springing up.
But how can O’Keefe know what it is like to be a real pimp daddy if he doesn’t get some street cred by being ass raped in prison?
If convicted, Flanagan, Basel, O’Keefe, and Dai each face a maximum term of six (6) months in prison and a fine of $5,000.
Okay, I’m cool with that — the odds that O’Keefe is going to violate his parole are so great that if he doesn’t end up in jail this time, it’s worth letting him have another shot.
[re=542030]Gorillionaire[/re]: I suspect the shuttering of ACORN has put lots of people out of the job. CLASS ACTION!!
It was the first time he ever played a political prank, and it will certainly be his last!
Breaking into a Senator’s office to mess with her phones, that’s so January 2010. These days you gotta threaten her children or cut her gas line if you want some street cred.
VINDICATION
You know what is a misdemeanor? Not having sex. De more you miss, de meaner you get.
Bah-dum-bump!
Boys being boys, they’ll never see a felony.
What a load of crap.
I thought this was about Georgia O’Keefe.
[re=542176]Godot[/re]:
Well now, that puts us right back at the Vagina Monologues again.
Not a bad thing.
[re=541999]JGabriel[/re]: But still not as much satisfaction as seeing them punked in jail, as QueerasElvis said.
Called it. I don’t remember when, but I remember calling it.
The Watergate kids will get free healthcare and legitamate prostate tests in prison, not those fake O’Reilly hand puppet, FOX jobs he practiced on Hannity.
This is the Breitbartocoplyse, finally, right?
Seriously, what did you expect? Robert Flanagan’s father, William J. Flanagan, is the acting U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Louisiana. http://www.justice.gov/usao/law/
Did anyone seriously expect that the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of the state was going to put the son of the acting U.S. Attorney for the Western District in jail?
Six months (that they’ll probably never have to serve)? For fucking with the phone sysytem of someone on the DHS Committee?
Good thing they weren’t doing something REALLY HEAVY like growing pot in their garage, eh?
[re=542035]Lucidamente[/re]: Can you picture any of these goys eating a rat?
[re=541993]SmutBoffin[/re]: I’m laughing!
[re=542020]V572625694[/re]: I bow to your analysis.
I thought the troof was going to set them free? Isn’t a plea bargain something a little different from the troof?
[re=542004]JMP[/re]: No, no, no. Personal Responsibility only counts when you’re using it as an explanation for why it’s good to fuck over the poors, not when it comes to personally taking responsibility for you own actions.
Think of all the business connections they will miss out upon! For some people, prison is the equivalent of joining a fraternity!
