A1 to A73 in 24 Hours: The Life and Death of 'Watergate Jr.' (James O'Keefe update from Breitbart)
BigGovernment.com ^ | 1/27/2010 | Andrew Breitbart

Posted on 01/28/2010 7:36:08 AM PST by SeattleBruce

For those in the mainstream media committed to report the false and libelous narrative of “Watergate Jr.,” “wiretapping” and “bugging,” I predict much egg on your J-school grad faces. In your rush to judgment to convict James O’Keefe and his companions, you vengeful political partisans of press forgot to ponder: “Was Mr. O’Keefe up to one of his patented and obvious clown nose-on hidden camera tricks, trying to make his subjects look foolish?” Blog commenters seem to be quicker on the uptake than six-figured Washington-based pundits these days. And I predict there will be tape to vindicate these four pranksters, too.

“Jindal has joined the McCain party.”

Mebbe he just goofed? He should have said ‘no comment.’ That would have been safe - if he wanted to play it safe.

re: so-called “infiltration”

did they ever proceed past the reception desk?

many facts remain to be learned, but from what I’ve read they merely played around at the reception area -— hardly “infiltration”........ wow, can every leftist who ever sets foot in the front of an office etc. now be called an “infiltrator” by media and govt????

oh, I didn’t think so

Jindal is a RINO. In the two years since he’s been in office, we Louisiana conservatives have had to stand over him with a baseball bat to make him cut spending and taxes.

“if the police took the tape I guarantee it will be lost.”

What ‘tape’ - it was a digital video on his cell phone. As someone else pointed out, he could have sent it to a secure location. I’m sure he as the video still. Although he may have lost a cool phone...:)

++++++++++++

Refers to A1 to A73 of a newspaper, although look at the funny commentary up above about how newspapers don’t probably go past about 8 pages these days!

Now it makes sense.

I haven't seen a 72-page section since the WSJ in the 80s.

Of course, print is dead, so what the hey?

What about Flanagan? One would think that being the son of US Attorney, he would get more than a passing mention by the media. He seems to have dropped out of the story.

Whoops, never mind. Looks like some interesting reading material here:
