ACORN foe tweeted about planned sting of Sen. Landrieu's office (WashPo)

On New Year's Eve, conservative activist James O'Keefe telegraphed across the Internet that he was up to something big.

On the social networking site Twitter, he said that his past undercover video stings had exposed wrongdoing at Democratic-leaning organizations -- and he foreshadowed one more in the offing.

"2008: Planned Parenthood VPs fired 2009: ACORN defunded 2010: Get ready cuz this is about to get heavy," he wrote on his public Twitter page, dubbed "JamesOKeefeIII."

3. hopefully it will be a very broad conspiracy
and lots of ppl will be held accountable.

Of course, in reality, no one will do any jail time.

5. I wonder if he tweeted when ACORN's funding was restored by
a judge who found Congress' action to be 'unconstitutional'?

So, his crime is now pre-meditated? Doesn't that make the charges more serious? And does anyone know if the FBI was watching them or if they just got involved when Landrieu's office called?
