James O'Keefe, the infamous political activist who made up the ACORN controversy, is now turning his attention to NPR

I don't know whether to call this xenophobia or racism (probably both?) but in a staggering leap of logic, O'Keefe tries to tie NPR to... the Muslim Brotherhood. Really. He thinks National Public Radio is a front for a conservative religious party in Egypt.

This guy has already been proven an embarrassment to actual journalism, and also possibly a rapist. Last year, when a CNN reporter asked to interview him, he bought a bunch of sex toys, set up hidden cameras aboard a floating "palace of pleasure," and planned to seduce her. An associate of O'Keefe tipped the reporter off. He was going to 'punk' her. Because if she's not on Fox then she's a liberal, and liberals deserve to be raped.

As much as I would like to jump on the "Ignore this guy and he'll go away" bandwagon, the far right conservatives pay attention to him whether we like it or not, and we have to be aware of what's going on in their little media bubble. They're brainwashed and they're going to take this seriously.
