Looks as though the Right are distancing themselves as quick as possible from this mess. But just a few short months ago, they were hailing this guy as a hero.

The right has a way of picking hero's who have less than stellar back rounds. Just look at Mark Sanford, Joe the non-plumber, Trent Lott, drug addict Rush, do you see a pattern here yet?
Yep, Faux News has been quiet as a mouse over the O'Keefe controversy [[did they even report it?). Yet just moments before this story was printed they continuosly bragged over how they were the only news organization to report on ACORN. It makes one wonder if they had some involvement in the scheme.
Here's their only notable report I can find on it. Ironically their only voice of semi-sanity[[Shep Smith) was in the driver seat [[but noticed how he tried to lay some sand down for Tim Gaughan).
TIM GAUGHAN: [It's a] very weird story that probably needs a lot of context and a lot of looking into, which is what we’re going to do here. I just wanted to get it on the record with it right now.
SHEP SMITH: So, they’re saying basically, they’re in there — It sounds as if what they’re saying is, they’re looking for some ACORN hanky panky and they try to tap into Mary Landrieu’s telephone to get it
TIM GAUGHAN: That could be one way of looking at it, yes.
