James O’Keefe is at it again, but nobody seems to be falling for his attempts despite the porn mustache.
You know, I’ve given this subject all the consideration it’s worth, and I’ve reached the following conclusion.
I don’t like this guy. He’s unethical. He wants to be Mike Wallace, but he’s not even a third-rate Geraldo (who at least used to be a decent reporter, once upon a long time ago). Has he managed to be right even *once *with his “exposées”?
Someone needs to start posting videos of him trying to do his “undercover stings”, but replace the audio with Yackety Sax. And possibly the Monty Python “Say No More” skit.
O’Keefe doesn’t want to be Mike Wallace. He is third-rate scum aspiring to be second-rate scum and even failing at that.
His objective is not to be “right”, and in fact I’d say you’re missing his entire point. He’s doing propaganda pieces pushing forward fundamental untruths, lovingly crafted with the video equivalent of choping words from a newspaper article, arranging them in new sentences, then yelling that his morning paper is saying some shit, man.
Which is, y’know, fine. Or would be if he was actually good at it. But Joe Goebbels he ain’t.
At this point, he is barely Joe the Plumber
And yet, somebody, somewhere, is writing this guy checks.
I was wondering about that. How does he make money? Does he sell his tapes?
I would imagine he’s hoping to get hired by Fox somewhen down the line.
So did I, when I posted about the comment yesterday. (#17529)
Doesn’t anybody read the thread anymore? 
We try, man, but, like, around here, since they, you know, legalized weed, I have forgotten, like, more than I ever knew. And looking back at that sentence, I seem to have become commatose.
Oh wow, squirrel.
I have no words.
I keep flipping back and forth between his little penile brain works so badly that he sincerely believes he is Mike Wallace and is Exposing The Truth, and his little penile brain works so badly that he thinks he can convince everyone he’s Mike Wallace while he manufactures the “truth” he wants believed.
Or, you know, I could just be so tired that I’m not making much sense. That happens, too. :smack:
You are scarng me now, I never would have thought penile dementia to be contagious. Seek help.
Damn near impossible for me, I don’t have the required parts.
I was actually aware of that, which is why it scared me so much.

You guys are making me laugh. Thanks. I needed that.
But those don’t think any better than one you’re born with. Probably worse.
In the fullness of time, I’ve become convinced that we who are testosterone impaired should simply step aside and let the guys with the wobbly bits run things. Won’t do any better? Maybe. Could hardly do worse.
We just go fishing, drink beer, stay out of the way. If they want us for something, they know where we are.
