Fake pimp from ACORN videos tries to 'punk' CNN correspondent

James O'Keefe, best known for hitting the community organizing group ACORN with an undercover video sting, hoped to get CNN Investigative Correspondent Abbie Boudreau onto a boat filled with sexually explicit props and then record the session, those documents show.

Sounds like someone believes his own press releases.

You know, even if it had worked (despite the fact that it sounds like the persona he was adopting was one of SNL's Two Wild and Crazy Guys), I remain unclear on what exactly it was supposed to prove. That a human woman would get within 10 feet of him?

I think he was trying to discredit CNN, though it's hard to tell.

That is a pretty irresponsible claim, at that, Tep.

I have a thought on how this would make (psycho) sense. Nobody but him knows what was in his head if things had gone forward further. But, I will say that since deceptively edited video was successful in destroying ACORN, he might well expect it to be successful in preventing a felony arrest.

What a fucking douchebag.

Sam Sifton (NYTimes restaurant critic) is bananas:

And a small bowl of anellini, robiola-stuffed pasta rounds the shape of World Series rings, comes with a black-truffle sauce that tastes of earned wealth and deep satisfaction. But you eat the dish with your fingers. It feels like skinny-dipping at the Lido, and is as enjoyable.

OMG, I think a couple of you might've posted this on FB, but this is BANANAS--assistant attorney general in Michigan is stalking and harassing a UM gay student like CRAZY. It's ridiculous.

I love my state.
