Not Wiretapping, Just Stupidity

This is almost even more ridiculous than wiretapping:

[T]he men, led by conservative videomaker James O'Keefe, wanted to see how her local office staff would respond if the phones were inoperative...

That is, the official says, what led the four men to pull this stunt -- to see how the local staffers would react if the phones went out. Would the staff just laugh it off, or would they express great concern that local folks couldn't get through?

So they risked 10 years in Levenworth and a $250,000 fine to catch a bunch of staffers laughing.

Stellar judgment, brah...
