Olbermann, Madow, and the rest of the gang were yucking it up last night over the prospect of caging, for 20 years, James O’Keefe, the kid who exposed ACORN, and his three friends. They are accused of dressing up like telephone repairmen and visiting LA senator Mary Landrieu’s government office in hopes of embarrassing her. To the Gulag, go!
Was this entrapment? The regime has wanted to destroy O’Keefe for showing up Obama’s favorite state-funded community group. In any event, these boys were imprudent at worst. Being Republican conservatives, they did not absorb the libertarian lesson that public property isn’t. Different rules apply to the state than hoi polloi. How dare they enter the holy sanctuary of Landrieu without due obeisance?And, preferably, a suitcase of cash.
My own view: since the feds can crowbar your money out of you, and use it to enter your house or office under false pretenses, to spy on you, listen to your phone calls, read your emails, go through your underwear drawer, etc. what’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander. So I say, Free the Landrieu Four and all other political prisoners!
