I Formally Apologize To James O’Keefe For Overstating His Manhood
Our good pal Patterico lawyerly and alpaca-ly insists that I correct an old Sadly, No! post that questioned Andrew Breitbart’s claim on Twitter that Dave Weigel ‘DENIES’ that James O’Keefe of black stereotype cosplay fame ‘manned a table selling Neo-Nazi claptrap during a White-Man-Negro-Haters Club meet-and-greet held at Georgetown University in 2006.’
It turns out that Weigel, while not in fact ‘denying’ that O’Keefe may have manned such a table (I await Patterico’s insistence that Breitbart retract his tweet, perhaps in vain), later reported that though he attended the 2006 event, he could not confirm another attendee’s report of said table-manning.
So consider this an apology to James O’Keefe and a formal retraction of the part of the post in question that describes him as having ‘manned a table’. Furthermore, to my knowledge, O’Keefe is no man at all with regards to other types of furniture, physical objects in general or even concepts such as honesty and fair-dealing, so I will endeavor in the future not to linguistically associate him with masculinity in any way or form.
I am truly sorry.

It could be that O’Keefe ‘minstreled’ the table, and if so, consider this another apology for getting all of this so very, very wrong.

Jesus Christ, I admire the hell out of a man that knows how to grovel. And when to grovel. Any two-bit peckerwood with a hand full of gimme and a mouth full of much obliged can announce he’s sorry to his enemies and hang his head and all that commie faggot bullshit. But it takes a real extra-special kind of a man, a bock beer of a man, a man made of charcoal briquettes, razor blades, and rhinoceros cum to stand up and say, “I am truly sorry” to some cockwrangler that wants to see him dead. I applaud you, sir, in fact I bow my head like a pussy-ass hammerlapping schoolgirl pansy and I cry in my biggest, full-throated stage voice, “I adore you! J’adore! Get on my tip, you powerful paragon of pulchritude! That said, no motherfucker can entice me out of this boat. There’s two inches of freeboard and a swamp shimmying with fucken piranha and I don’t give a damn if the mangoes weigh thirty pounds and spurt liquid Jesus juice when you bite into ‘em, I’m not having any. This airport bag of trail mix will tide me over until we get back to the village.

James O’Keefe didn’t man the table
“What I told Weigel and what I told him to quote me as saying, is that O’Keefe was involved the same way you would be involved if you went to a party and you put out the cups and stocked the cooler,” Isis told me. “He was helping Marcus Epstein in the execution of the event so I don’t see what the issue is. It was obvious that he was there supporting the event and was involved in its execution.”
He just ensured that it was set up correctly as well as every other table at the joint.

My favorite thing about those comments is how the hardcore faithful have gone from calling ACORN corrupt and partisan to actually talking about their complicity in, depending on how ridiculous they want to sound, “sexual slavery” or “child sexual abuse”. As if that is really a thing that happened. As if Doug Giles’ kid is actually in a rape cave somewhere waiting to be penetrated by any ghetto tripe with two bills to rub together, instead of just being a story some numbnuts made up to embarrass a political opponent.
I mean, if I dressed up like a sheik and solicited some Democratic organization on behalf of Bluhbloochistan to buy atomic missiles to use against the Swiss, and some aide gave me five bucks just to go away and leave them alone, would these guys actually accuse anyone who found the whole thing slightly ridiculous of minimizing the horrible death by nuclear firestorm of millions of innocents in Zurich? Are they really that dumb? Do I really want to know?

Uhm, guys, the 5th amendment means O’Keefe doesn’t have to testify against himself, but out here in reality we can all do the sums and come to probabilistic conclusions.
Once again, for conservatives if you are not caught leading a Klan rally in white sheets with a burning black man hung behind you, you must be given the benefit of the doubt regarding racism. O’Keefe might have just been resting his feet at an empty chair in front of a table full of racist literature! He was tricked! He came to cheer for the black guy debating the known white nationalist! Chewbacca!

How far up someone’s ass does the head go before you start agreeing with a douche about “catch wrestling,” because of your mancrush? As frightening as Goldstein is, his followeres are way dumber and way crazier.

Sure that book was found in Troofus’ daughter’s room – but that doesn’t necessarily mean that he HAD SEX WITH HIS DAUGHTER WHILE FANTASIZING ABOUT RUSH LIMBAUGH.

Hey, DA?
Isn’t it interesting how….vigorously…Paterrico has defended O’Keefe, even after your stunningly graceful and magnanimous apology?
It’s almost…I don’t know…like a lover who’s woman has been wronged. It’s almost like he anticipates dueling you to the death over her honor.
It’s just a really weird attitude for Paterrico to take, don’t you think? I mean, I’m no homophobe, I want to say that at the top here, but it almost seems like a “chicken hawk/chick” relationship, like he’s taken him
into his pantsunder his wing.I can understand why. You know, O’Keefe being so young and vulnerable, and now being called on his irresponsible behavior in committing a crime and possibly facing serious jail time in a penitentiary where he’ll be forced to shower NAKED with inmates and convicts, some of whom are bored and have nothing better to do but to fuck with fresh meat.
I said “fuck with….
I can understand why a nearly-total stranger might want to rescue a poor helpless lad, barely
legalout of short pants, still wet behind hisrectumears from suffering all manner of degradations and discomfort in prison.So he’d feel obliged to stick
it inup for him when he’s being attacked by the “enemy.”actor212 said,

Now Patterico wants retractions from me for comments on that post. He’s like Olive Oyl’s father in the underrated* live action Popeye film, just repeating ‘I demand an apology’ to any one dumb enough to cross his path. It’s alt.politics.libertarian on Usenet circa 1995, with kill files at dawn.

Dragon King,
I am the same and I apologize for “triggering” you. I generally don’t go back and read the comments for awhile, if it all. Mostly, because I understand a troop of gibbons will throw their shit at someone they don’t’ like, it doesn’t mean I need to see it in real-time and it’s not exactly a good rebuttal. However, once they find another thread to hoot and screech at, I feel it’s safe to go back, pick through the detritus, and try to understand the “mind” of the average commentator.
Which is why this Patterico/Breitbart/O’Keefe thing is so hard for me to understand. I think after reading accounts of Giles’s and O’Keefe’s motivations and hearing from conservative for years how much they hate ACORN (and understanding it’s because cons oppose low income voters), I understood “the why” of what they did and why the right wing goon media picked it up.
Breitbart clearly plans to profit of the franchise he purchased, which is why he plays semantic games about O’Keefe’s arrest and defends him (and Andy’s a pretty angry and silly man. Who BRAGS about how watching Clarence Thomas lying to Congress caused you to side with the porn watching guy’s politics?).
But, what’s in it for Patterico? He and I disagree on politics and law, but I think there’s a common ground we could find (which considering some of the other dolts out there is saying something), he hates Goldstein (which is a genius move), and he was willing to ask questions of Stacy McCain that no other right wing blogger would. Now, he turns on a dime and becomes emotionally in defending Breitbart and O’Keefe. I’d say his rhetoric was over the top on the subject, which is odd for him, except that it’s so over the top, it’s reached the bottom on the other side.*
Just baffling
*I’ll let Actor 212 take that where he will, but note I’m a bit uncomfortable with any line of argument that calls hetero guys “gay” and means it as a super-funny pejorative. Let’s just say that would be a welcome argument on a Patterico thread too and, given how many funny things I’ve read from Actor, is a bit below him.

Partisan gamesmanship? Patterico seems to me to be vested in “winning” even if he has to invent a contest and compete against imaginary opponents.
Or perhaps, judging solely by the post – he wants into Hannah Giles’ pants. Note that with the post in question, he makes minimal efforts to defend O’Keefe and Breitblart. Instead, he focuses on the fact that poor little Hannah didn’t do nothing wrong.
P.S. No problem with the triggering – I don’t have much problem with being triggered, as Whale Chowder’s mom can attest.

This is the same guy that put on a “politically-correct bake-sale” at his campus, with higher prices for whites than blacks … during Black History month.
He needs something, but it’s not an apology.
Perhaps because in their full unedited form, the “tapes” of his all-too successful scam (actually video files) would show one ACORN office after another telling him & his “girlfriend” to GTFO for asking advice on how to commit illegal acts … or perhaps because the long-form vault-copy video has long since been deleted (h/t Ollie North) in order to avoid just such a discombobulating outcome.
When they say the “unedited audio” is avialable, that audio is for ONE event that took place after 30 or so episodes of “Giles & O’Keefe’s Failathon Drive For Special-Needs Republicans” – which it’s safe to assume they erased. Imagine how much shit a scientist would get in for destroying data from 30+ experiments that didn’t support their whackadoodle theory, then running with the ONE experiment that “proved” it.
O’Keefe is a journalist like I’m an aardwolf.

Thanks for looking at my site, kiddies. And repig, good seeing you again. If you were interested in the truth instead of your Jr High dirty jokes, you would have known my “young daughter” is a Sergeant in the US Army and spent 15 months as a prison guard in Iraq and is due to return to Iraq in September of this year. Heck, I even have a linked gif in my upper-left sidebar that you intellectually vacuous folks missed.
And, repig, if you had any memory, you’d already have known I have a site. It was reported back to you folks after I did my article on how you folks are ever so racist.
Feel free to explore my site for the fun of it, but I doubt you’re capable of learning in your juvenile attitudes, nor do I believe many (if any) of you can figure out how to get around my moderation filter. But you’re free to try. I need the practice in adding to my spam filter anyway.

Hey Hitchcock,
We are all well aware that your daughter is in the forces, it’s hard to miss since you shout it at everybody you possibly can. Oh did I forget to mention that Hitchcock’s daughter is in the Army? Please don’t forget that Hitchcock’s daughter is in the Army – which is proof that all liberals are racists.
Anyways, thanks for bringing yourself back to say Hello – something I tried to do at your site. “Lalala here I am, father of a woman in the Army, trolling along, calling everyone racist and juvenile and stoopid, because I have a daughter in the Army! BTW, I have a site, but since I am a huge fucking pansy, I moderate all comments and delete things just because I can, since my daughter is in the Army – I take shots at other sites without providing links – and I have a daughter in the Army.”
Great, Hitchcock. That’s fantastic. Although I am a bit saddened to know that we were totally correct about the fact that you use your daughter to make yourself feel more like a man.
PROTIP: In that lovely “Liberals Are Racists” screed you put up, your bizarre rambling followed by out-of-context quote-mining, your moderated comment thread – despite being 5 comments (plus one spam) long, is delightful. Since you have no problem with silencing anyone you disagree with, you may want to reconsider why you let some of that through the filter.

That’s him on his best behaviour, trying to ingratiate himself to like-minded opponents of the EVIL LEFTSIST HORDES (led by the French or fags or both). Despite his characterization of his time spent trolling here as “a few hours last night”, we’vehad plenty of experience with Troofus.

Well, as a person who started reading the right wing blogosphere at Goldstein’s place and knows about irrational banning, I just don’t find that true. Patterico and I disagree on almost everything, but he’s not insane. He’s intensely political, but he’s never banned me and I’ve been commenting there for two years of pretty respectful disagreement.
Although, I have to add, his emotions are so high on this Breitbart thing (again, I can’t figure out why), he has made noises in the banning direction.
Someday, maybe we can talk about how objectively crazy that site is because one of their admins was a prison guard at Gitmo and to them that makes him a SUPER, DUPER HERO, because, unlike most soldiers, he had to “fight” the terrorists AND the liberals!
I mean, relatively, Patterico is way more sane than Ace of Spades or McCain or Blackfive or Goldstein’s house of wrestling, but objectively….well, it’s out there and just demonstrates how weird conservatives are in 2010. I thought the militia’s and the David Koresh love and Ruby Ridge was certifiable, but contemporary cons make those guys look reasonable.
Macswain said,
February 26, 2010 at 22:49
timb,
I actually was banned by Patterico after showing that he falsely claimed – repeatedly – that Kerry never released his medical records. He accused me of lying about him and, when challenged, couldn’t name the lie. He also accused me of sock puppetry (one of his favorite accusations) and then had to retreat from that when the evidence showed he was wrong.
His behavior was very strange in that he had set his blog to filter my comments for moderation to delay the postings. Stranger yet, he went to my old blog and spent hours trying to find an example where I banned somebody to try and claim so false equivalency.
In fact, the only thing I was guilty of was calling him out on some weak and some false arguments. This was a couple of years ago, so maybe he’s changed his colors for you. But I wasn’t the only liberal he banned under some changing code that he never applied to his rightwing commenters.
