Woman who stopped CNN 'punk' plan says O'Keefe claims untrue

Atlanta, Georgia (CNN) -- The woman who stopped a plot by conservative activist James O'Keefe to embarrass a CNN reporter said O'Keefe's latest statement on the matter is "clearly not true."

In an e-mail to CNN, the former executive director of Project Veritas, Izzy Santa, wrote: "It's clearly a PR statement for damage control. It's clearly not true but what can you do."

Santa was reacting to O'Keefe's explanation of what he said would have happened on his boat in August after he agreed to meet CNN Investigative Correspondent Abbie Boudreau, who was working on a documentary about young conservative activists.

The documentary, "Right On The Edge," which aired this past weekend, revealed that O'Keefe had planned to "faux seduce" Boudreau by setting up the boat with hidden cameras and sexual props.

1. It took a lot of self restraint on her part to simply call it 'untrue'
Instead of calling it what it is:

A sack of shit emitted from the mouth of a sack of shit.

2. I'm sure he believed she would sleep with him. He went to the Karl Rove
school for up and coming Turd blossoms.

3. good god. This guy has got to be "hard up" in the best sense of the word.
Irrational, sexist, narcissistic idiot...

tells you something about the tea bagging group, doesn't it? No wonder the female 'baggers are so uptight...if they have to sleep with a guy like him, they've gotta be very, very much effed up...
