Oops

Anti-ACORN activist accused of tampering with senator's phone.

Cue the right-wing "he was set up!" nonsense in 5, 4, 3, 2....

I would agree, except he actually got caught in the act.


If they found the taps / whatever he was doing, and then blamed him after he'd left based on "Hey, he looks like the guy", then yeah. The Right would be all over that.

Yes, but obviously, he was set up so he would get caught. Because it's all a liberal trick.

No, you're hitting the wrong spin.

They were going through the senator's dirty laundry, but were caught, thus making them martyrs.

They were going after her phone lines, not her dry cleaning.

Oh, I see what you mean.
