James O\u2019Keefe<\/a> is a name many people are familiar with. He exposed ACORN by posing as a pimp with a supposed underage prostitute. He exposed voter fraud in a number of states, and generally he has been a continuing thorn in the side of the Obama Administration. Under normal circumstances that would not be a problem, but evidently free speech in America is truly under attack.<\/p>\n

Yesterday The Daily Caller<\/a> posted an article about James O’keefe’s latest adventures with U.S. Customs<\/a> Agents in the airport in Nassau, Bahamas<\/a> en route to Miami<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The article at The Daily Caller includes the entire dialogue with the customs agent<\/a> as Mr. O’Keefe remembers it. I strongly suggest that you follow the link above and read the entire article, but here are a few highlights:<\/p>\n

James:<\/strong> That was the one where I legally waded into the Rio Grande<\/a> dressed like Osama bin Laden<\/a> and embarrassed the federal government.\u00a0DHS<\/a> secretary was grilled under oath. Are you telling me this is retaliation for that?<\/p>\n

Customs:<\/strong> I\u2019m telling you that each time you go through here you will need to give an extra hour because we will do this each time. You have a prior criminal record and broke the law crossing into the United States<\/a> unlawfully.<\/p>\n

James:<\/strong> It wasn\u2019t unlawful, I did nothing but wade back and forth. Millions of Mexicans cross and you don\u2019t detain them for unlawful entry<\/p>\n

Customs:<\/strong> You broke the law!<\/p>\n

James:<\/strong> I broke the law? I\u2019m a journalist who is trying to expose something important. Deep down in your heart when you set the burocreacy aside you have admit it needed to be exposed.<\/p>\n

Customs:<\/strong> Come with me.<\/p>\n

If only we were that conscientious with the illegals crossing into the United States illegally.<\/p>\n
