Pimpmeister James O'Keefe To Cop A Guilty Plea...
Falling beneath the radar on a very busy Friday...

Federal prosecutors filed reduced charges Friday against conservative activist James O'Keefe and three others who were accused of trying to tamper with the phones in Sen. Mary Landrieu's New Orleans office.

The new charges are contained in a bill of information, which can only be filed with a defendant's consent and typically signals a plea deal. The new filing charges the four with entering a federal building under false pretenses, a misdemeanor. They had been arrested Jan. 25 on felony charges.

O'Keefe, a videographer famous for wearing a pimp costume in a stunt that embarrassed the ACORN community organizing group, has said the group was trying to investigate complaints that constituents calling Landrieu's office couldn't get through to criticize her support of a health care reform bill.

- Snip -
The new charges carry maximum sentences of six months in prison and a $5,000 fine. A date for their next court appearance has not been set.


So Jimmy could spend 6 months making little ones out of big ones. Wonder if they'll ship him to Angola...

3. Six months 'rooming' with real pimps.
Not to mention that he's in the hate crime zone.

Could be a 'fun-filled' time in the pokey.

4. Yeppers...
The 5k is chump change to Breibart or one of his rich puppetmasters, but the 6 months could be quite an awakening for the young Mr. O'Keefe. I'm sure they'll be giving him lots of "research material". :rofl:

Why does the word "fresh meat" keep ringing in my head? :rofl:

7. What would have happened to this kid if his name was Jamil Keffala
and he was a Muslim?

FOX News would STILL be running 24/7 coverage of this story had the young men been Muslims. Since he is a white bread, right-wing little douchebag he gets a slap on the wrist.

Also, I have a hard time understanding why so many people are OK with rapes in prison. Rape is rape and the permissive, joking manner with which people deal with this issue in regard to prisons is disturbing. It is obvious that many folks simply do not consider that no matter how remote the possibility, it could be your dumbass sitting in prison/jail someday. It could be your son or daughter or someone else close to you having to fend off sexual predators. Not so funny anymore is it?
