In the week after his arrest in New Orleans, James O’Keefe had to pull out of a speech on journalism in San Francisco. But it seems like the worst is behind him — O’Keefe and investigative partner Hannah Giles are joining “a top notch lineup of speakers” at the 2010 California Republican Assembly conference. They’ll be speaking tomorrow night; other speakers include satirical filmmaker David Zucker, Proposition 8 attorney Ron Prentice, and all of the party’s candidates for governor and U.S. Senate.
Side note: One of the criticisms thrown at reporters who write about O’Keefe and Giles is that we should leave them alone and cover ACORN instead. I get it. But the two muckrakers are also conservative celebrities who tour the country giving speeches. It would be strange just to bestow them with laurels and move on.

How do you “get it” … how does it make sense that you should cover an organization who's only error deemed worthy of any sort of prosecution or disciplinary action was having two workers get high and write “mickey mouse” instead of registering voters and not two people who videotaped their own crimes, one of whom went on to get caught in the commission of another crime?

Now that it has been established that the Acorn video was doctored , the next logical step would be to INDICT O'Keefe and Giles for conspiracy . Then maybe they could offer HER immunity if she testified against him ! If this BOZO doesn't go to jail , it will be a HUGE MISTAKE ! !
