Everybody’s talking about this slapdown David Shuster had with Andrew Breitbart, the guy who employs chief TeaBugger James O’Keefe.

Aside from all the yelling, what I find notable about this is the way Breitbart succeeds in preventing Shuster from explaining what O’Keefe has been charged with: entering US property “for the purpose of willfully and maliciously interfering with a telephone system operated by the United States of America.”

.........................

1. They had the intent of illegally shutting down tampering with the phone systems of a member of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security
2. They planned to do so to get a reaction out of Landrieu (and, apparently, to film that reaction)

Now, given that O’Keefe’s prior film on ACORN was about framing people and editing video of that frame for political maliciousness, it’s probably safe to assume that if O’Keefe’s current story is true, he had the same intent to falsely frame Landrieu and then edit his film to exacerbate her reaction.

Maybe that’s why Breitbart is so desperate to prevent Shuster from explaining that to his viewers.

3. My bet - he will end up in the courtroom - could be a witness - could be as accused accessory. So
we have those two words to remember. Absolutely not!

4. I'm beginning to think Karl Rove has nothing to do with these people - look at Karl - hasn't gone to
jail yet. Compared to this Breitbart guy, Karl has class - he would never scream something four times in a row while the host spoke. Karl persuades while he lies. This guy needs help - fast. Freepers should take up a collection. Or should I say Teabaggers should take up a collection fast.

Question: Where do we stand with the stated reason for the get-ups and fourth guy in the car with listening devices? Are they still saying that there was going to be an interruption in service and they wanted to film the staff? So why the costumes for the telephone technicians? Were they going to come in to pretend like they were fixing the phones while James filmed, but instead plant a tap?
