No word on whether they’ll be prosecuting any ACORN people for conspiring to cover up sex slavery. They’ve got bigger fish to fry, I guess. Like … the people who exposed the people who conspired to cover up sex slavery.
This is what you get for doing the media’s job for them.
Note: Most of the “inquiries” they received from citizens — although
perhaps not from reporters — surely were demands that ACORN be
prosecuted. So they looked at the tape … and decided to go after
O’Keefe instead. The news story at the link reminds us that they went
after Linda Tripp for wiretapping too, coincidentally another person
who made life uncomfortable for a Democratic president. Here’s the statute.
You’ll find exception after exception provided for law enforcement to
shield them from liability when they tape criminals surreptitiously to
serve the public interest. Kind of like how O’Keefe did here.
