GOP Golden Boy O'Keefe Self Destructs With An Act of Criminal Stupidity

James O'Keefe, the hack right-wing "journalist" who made a name for himself in the ACORN tax/prostitution scandal, destroyed any shred of credibility he had by deciding to get involved in the "Louisiana Watergate" scandal. Although the tactics used in the attempted ACORN sting may very well have been illegal, it appears O'Keefe and his co-conspirators stepped in it big time with this bizarre stunt. Getting mixed-up in federal crimes was probably not the best next step in O'Keefe's "career." He may find it a little difficult to conduct his heavily-edited, gotcha sting operations from a cell in a federal prison.

I can't wait to see where this case leads. Does it stop with O'Keefe and his right-wing hit squad or does it go further? I notice that Fox News and the congressmen who passed a resolution praising O'Keefe are relatively silent on this incident. Fair and Balanced? I don't think so.

Mary Matalin Claims Bush Inherited the 9/11 Attacks! Not A Joke!!

Mary Matalin is just another in a long line of former Bush Administration officials and right-wingers who are shamelessly trying to rewrite the sordid history of the Bush Administration. She claims that President Bush inherited the 9/11 attacks, but fails to provide any supporting explanation of this bizarre statement.

Ed Shultz did a good job on his show of calling her out on it and I'll also do my part in fighting this kind of nonsensical revisionism whenever I see it. And unfortunately we see it occur alarmingly often. I think somebody needs to buy Matalin a calendar and thorough instructions on its use.
