Ain't that the truth...if ONE nutjob kills in the name Christianity, all Christians are evil killers.....but yet, thats not true of Muslims....even though we see thousands of them
doing killing with regularity......odd logic isn't it.

And then the opposition wants to label it as a "..they did it too..." defense, when a question was asked.
The question must have scared them.
 
they seem to like to pretend OKeefe is not being charged and fined for his illegal activities.

Its like if your republicans all rules are suspended and if your left leaning all rules are bent to oppress you

NEW YORK – Today after three years fighting a meritless lawsuit against former ACORN employee Juan Carlos Vera, a nuisance settlement has been filed. James O’Keefe issued the following statement in regards to the settlement:



“There comes a time when the cost to defend yourself against meritless accusations becomes so burdensome financially and personally, it is simply too great. The settlement admits no liability and there is no benefit from extending this ridiculous lawsuit.

“Sadly, this is the cost of exposing the truth. That’s why so few people do it. There are liability issues inherent in undercover journalism. But let me be clear, this lawsuit had nothing to do with editing or misrepresentation. It was an action under the California Invasion of Privacy Act. The anti-recording statute under which the suit was brought is unconstitutional, overbroad, and gives the police and other public officials too much power.


“As President of Project Veritas and undertaking 5 current investigations, my time and resources are better served in working toward our mission of exposing waste, fraud, and abuse then defending myself against lies. I will not be deterred from investigating and exposing corruption. Now more than ever, America is in need of a more ethical and transparent society.”

Yeah...the same bullshit excuse everyone uses when they decide to give up and admit they are indeed guilty and ready to get out from under the harsh light of truth.

Even his claim that the law suit had nothing to do with "misrepresentation" is a lie...he misrepresented his position by failing to tell the other person he was being recorded.

It figures that Righties would idolize a lying criminal like O'Keefe

So you admit the rule of law means nothing to you if you've got the chance to really stick it to those EEEEVIL Democrats and their minions.

Watching Obamas manipulation of Homeland Security, the Patriot Act, DOJ, etc.....Its becoming more and more clear that the adages 'fight fire with fire'
and 'we fight with the weapons we have' is becoming more relevant....for all practical purposes, this admin. is somewhat above the law we're used to.

So until the laws is exercised in an equal manner............etc.....

Ah yes, the old "well they do it too" argument.

No, the truth is Republicans could take this opportunity to show how they AREN'T "above the law" as you claim the Obama administration is.

But no, you only have a problem with politicians acting "above the law' when it's Liberals...

Only because the majority of the time.....it is liberals.
The issues I mentioned above....

the nut jobs expelling 5 and 6 yr. olds from school because of cupcakes and finger pointing....
military intervention without congressional approval
Kathleen Sebelius violates federal law by campaigning for President Obama on the taxpayers’ dime

the list is longer, but you get the point.

Oh well, that makes all the difference.

If, as you claim, Liberals "do it" a majority of the time, well by golly that means it's PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE for Righties to do so also.

I am so glad you cleared that up.
