Steve King Accuses ACORN Pimp of Masterminding Own Arrest to Discredit Wingnuts
At least, that’s all we can make of this quote:
“It seems really convenient that this would happen now.”
King, one of thirty-one congresscritters supporting a House Resolution that offers “a debt of gratitude” from “the people of the United States” to our favorite accused felon, obviously has a stake in the matter, and we applaud him for not backing away from his faux-pimp advocacy.
Only we’re not sure that’s what he’s implying. Let’s check the original story:
According to the FBI affidavit, Flanagan and Basel entered the federal building at 500 Poydras Street on Monday about 11 a.m., dressed as telephone company employees, wearing jeans, fluorescent green vests, tool belts and hard hats. When they arrived at Landrieu’s 10th-floor office, O’Keefe was already in the office and had told a staffer he was waiting for someone to arrive.
Unless our perception has been completely deranged by today’s iPad announcement, it would seem that the Convenient Timing was provided by PimpBoy himself, who set things in motion on Monday by attempting to bug Landrieu’s office. This wasn’t some ongoing investigation that was suddenly announced.
But that’s too obvious. We much prefer thinking that O’Keefe has been a Lefty mole all along, establishing his cred last fall just so he could take down the entire Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy at this very moment.

Super-Mega Five-Dimentional Chess, Singapore Rules using Irish Pieces and the Optional Chessboard with Attachments!
Damn these lefties are eeeevvviiilllll…..
@Tommmcatt Say Relax:
if only.
in other news. I have found the drinking game for tonight:
Obama says “let me be clear” – do one shot
Obama says “change isn’t easy” – do one shot
Obama says “make no mistake” – do one shot
Obama says “let me be clear, change isn’t easy, make no mistake” – he’s screwing with you to get you drunk – do five shots
Joe Wilson yells something – do two shots
Obama yells back – finish the bottle
Obama says “jobs” – do one shot, two if you’re unemployed
Obama says “health care” – stop drinking…you will NOT be given a replacement liver
Nancy Pelosi claps like a seal – do one shot
Nancy Pelosi becomes a seal – STOP DRINKING, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD
*Optional* If Nancy Pelosi appears in a shot WITHOUT Obama, do one shot without using your facial muscles
Obama mentions Bo – put beer in your dog’s water bowl
Michelle Obama wears a slinky dress – go immediately to the HuffPost Style page for close-ups
Joe Biden nods off / laughs inappropriately / starts talking before the speech is over – do three shots
Obama uses the term “Congressional leadership” – do two shots carefully as all that laughing will make it difficult to swallow
Obama says he’s “fighting for you” – do one shot, two if you believe him
Obama mentions “Haiti” – text “Haiti” to 90999 and donate $10 to the Red Cross
I can’t even begin to understand a mindset like King’s. Is it possible for a simpleton to believe in something so convoluted as a liberal who infiltrated the wingnut brigade and brought nationwide shame upon a lefty organization simply in order to bring down the Republican party with a half ass Watergate redux?
I’m guessing this moron also believes in the conspiracy to have Barry’s birth announcement in Hawaiian papers even though he was born in Nigeria so that someday he’d be the first mulatto president.
OMFG: Zsa-Zsa Gabor’s husband Prince Frederic von Anhalt is running for Governor of California.
You MUST check out his campaign website.
More Internet-savvy than Meg, I imagine.
Good thing we have a SOTU liveblog coming up, or my next post would be “Obama Remains Silent 48 Hours After Terrorist Attack on United States Senator.”
@SanFranLefty:
omfg
is that real?
on the other hand if Arnold a midget and a stripper can do it . . . .
@SanFranLefty: This will be his campaign ad.
BTW, Mr. O’Keefe apparently has some interests of the “racial” variety:

(TPM found it; apparently already scrubbed from the above site – I wonder why?)
Whoda thunk that a nice, upstanding Republican gentleman would be a racist? Oh wait, everybody. :)
@SanFranLefty: The 100 dollar bill flag is awesome!
OMG, there’s a page called “VIVA Viagra!”
@al2o3cr: Union City, NJ near Newark, NJ and NYC. That’s right up the way from me — I’ve been lunchin’!
Oh, and technically it’s not wiretapping, it’s phone-tampering. Lawyers for the accused would like the media to get that straight. Because, y’know, it makes all the difference.
That is terrifying and hilarious all at the same time, just like Steve Doocy.
Inciudentally, the Printz is my pick for Gov. He wants to legalize marijuana and repeal prop 8. And even naked and handcuffed to his steering wheel he still isn’t as out-and-out bonkers as Swartzenegger.

@Tommmcatt Say Relax: Is Zsa Zsa still alive and lucid? If so, they’d make a helluva lot more exciting First Couple than Steroids and Teeth.
Zsa Zsa has never really been lucid in the traditional sense of the word.
The Right always accuses the Left (such as) of what it is doing itself.
And BTW: homeboy sure do like to do dressup for his sprees. In da grillz, yo!
@Benedick:
My goodness you have become hep with the ling-o.
@al2o3cr:
Looks like Pimp King isn’t going to have friends with the Black Muslim Brotherhood, but will find friends with the Aryan Brotherhood during his brief prison time.
King Haiku
King blames the lefties
Conspiracy in shadows
Pimp stands all alone
@SanFranLefty: You have GOT to get a job on that campaign. Imagine the book you could write afterwards! You’ll be rich!
SOTU pre-game warmup: Webz shows athlete’s unit, legal hilarity ensues.

@blogenfreude: Dude, are you kidding? Don’t joke. I’m so all over that. And best of yet, it’d be a family project.
Dodger could advise him on environmental issues, I’ll advise him on the social issues, Tommy will be his fabulous adviser on clothes, intellectual property, animation, marketing, and the gheyz, and CassandraSaid will tell him how not to be an asshole and how to work more literary references into his speeches. And Nojo will fix his website. I think the Prince should be the Stinque-endorsed candidate. Think of what it’d do for our pageviews!
