Do you remember this? 31 (Thirty-One) REPUBLICANS supported this resolution. Ahhh, such good judges of *intelligence* those 31 Republican were. lol As Dave Weigel notes, O'Keefe had become a conservative media star since the ACORN sting. Rep. Pete Olson (R-TX) even introduced a resolution praising O'Keefe and his partner, would-be prostitute Hannah Giles, for their diligent investigative journalism. In a statement announcing the resolution, Olson said, Hannah and James should be applauded for their efforts to root out corruption and abuse of federal tax dollars. He also claimed O'Keefe was setting an example for concerned citizens across America.The following 31 House Republicans cosponsored Olson's measure, which declared that O'Keefe was owed a debt of gratitude by the people of the United States.FLASHBACK: 31 House Republicans Supported Resolution Honoring Alleged Felon James O'Keefe | Media Matters Action Network

He'll end up getting a job as a commentator with FOX news.
Hopefully after spending some time in a federal prison.
Not if the judge is a republican . . . hopefully the U.S. Attorney down there isn't. I can see 'em letting them go if the US Marshals didn't cross their Ts and dot their Is when reading their rights as the gang was arrested.
Just because someone in the media reports or investigates a story that is positive for the GOP (or negative for the democrats), it doesn't mean they speak for or represent all of or any part of the GOP. Maybe if the worked for a republican senator or rep (or the RNC), that could be said. Many people feel MSNBC has a liberal bias but, is doesn't mean speak for the democratic party in any way.
Being paid by Breitbart doesn't mean he or Breitbart represent or speak for the GOP. Technically, he's a freelance journalist....which makes him self-employed. A media outlet may pay him to use a story he has but, that doesn't make him an employee.....he gets 1099 for taxes....he doesn't fill out a W-2 to get paid for a story. A W-2 is what you fill out when someone hires you and puts you on their payroll as an employee so among other things they can withhold federal and state taxes as well as social security from your paycheck (they must also match your social security payment). Even if he was an employee though, as I already said, that doesn't mean he speaks for the GOP.
This wouldn't change that either but, did you read this part of the article you linked me to:
Quote:
Breitbart also said that O’Keefe “was not involved in anything that was related to Big Government, or Breitbart.com” when he was arrested.”
I can't watch what you linked me to because my computer won't let me. Judging by what the link says though, I don't care if he even worked for FOX full-time, that doesn't mean he speaks or represents the GOP in any way. FOX may favor conservatives but, it doesn't turm them into the GOP.
Hardly. This story is yet another example of the GOP going too far to try and "prove" something. In this case they are willing to break the law in order to do it. Here, on this forum, the same type of behavior is seen. The same group who scream about Acorn all day, and make ridiculous assertions about "voter fraud" also create fake user accounts to vote in polls. The irony is obviously lost on them, and you.
You mean like the Dumnocrats do here in Louisiana, like busing in the voters and paying them with fried chicken to vote for them. Heck, even dead people, dogs and cats vote here for the Dumnocrats.

You call an attempt to impersonate a telephone tech POSITIVE? Houston, we have a problem with this poster, doesn't know right from wrong, only RIGHT.
And, Rush Limpbag, Hannity, O'Reilly, or the rest of the right wing media does not represent the views of REPUGS?
I do believe you have perception problems or are delusional.
Nice drivel, now onto bigger and better things, W-2's and paying taxes, very good.
