Serious question: was Keith Olbermann this upset over Umar Mutallab's attempt to kill everyone aboard NWA 253?
Olbermann predictably led this evening's Countdown with the James O'Keefe story—the arrest in connection with the apparent attempted interference with Sen. Mary Landrieu's phone system of the young man who exposed ACORN.
Faith-based readers should actually be encouraged, because Olbermann appears to have gotten religion. Keith is clearly praying—fervently—that this will turn out to be, as the Countdown graphic suggests, "Watergate Jr.," with Republican officials revealed to be behind O'Keefe's latest venture.

Olbermann orgasmic over O’Keefe arrest ping to Today show list.
Someone ought to tell Speshul Keef that pride goeth before the fall—including his.
Bump
Worried Acorn isn’t going to work for Obama’s re-election?
as a retired phreaker, if you don’t know how to tap a landline from c. 1 mile away, you’re an idiot! (google green box)
Olbermann is like a fart in church, ignore it and eventually it will go away. ;-)
Let him be orgasmic, I suspect he’ll be the one with egg on his face before this is over.
Olberman is such a reliable shill.
lol, and how the rules have changed in the last 10 years. he’d be better off bugging her car.
Funny thing is, I bet Olbermann has referenced the Acorn scandal more in the last day than he did in the month after the scandals!
Will someone please tell me how you can get the keys to a phone closet in a federal building these days.....really would like to know..who is in charge....please.. would really like to know...and heh Scary Mary, do you really need a land line to do you’re corruption calls?
in all seriousness, i hope that there is more to this story.
Remember this little puke who hacked into Sarah Palin's email account?
And about Sandy Burglar....
One of the early threads today contained a link to the FBI affidavit. It doesn’t quite mesh with what the media is saying. (And many here are repeating)
O’Keefe didn’t gain access to the building under false pretenses. The staffers knew he was there and who he was. He wasn’t dressed as a phone company employee.
O’Keefe never touched any of the phones and didn’t go with the impostors when they were seeking access to the “phone closet”. The phone closet was on a different floor from O’Keefe. The affidavit didn’t mention any equipment having been found that could be used to tap the phones. O’Keefe did know the others involved but it sounds like they were very recent acquaintances.
The media is running with this and spinning it hard because O’Keefe and Giles embarrassed them badly.
When ever you shake the foundation of the establishment like O’Keefe did, you better have your house in order. From what I have seen, these people were pretty brazen and stupid in their actions. It is really a shame that O’Keefe may have spoiled what could have been a great career. I wonder if he was desperate for another big story?
Like I said, the affidavit doesn’t match what many here are saying.
Here is the affidavit if anyone is interested. (pdf file)

I’m sure the Olberdork is more upset about this this than about 9/11 and the mass-murdering terrorists
