Kline co-sponsored resolution honoring the ‘exemplary’ James O’Keefe
Rep. John Kline was among several members of Congress who signed a resolution praising the work of James O’Keefe, who was arrested Monday for using false pretenses to enter a federal office with intent of interfering with telephone lines. The October resolution praised O’Keefe’s undercover investigation of ACORN as “exemplary actions” and is states that he is “owed a debt of gratitude by the people of the United States.”

O’Keefe was arrested yesterday; authorities say he and another man aided and abetted two others in attempting to interfere with the phones at the offices of Sen. Mary Landrieu in New Orleans, a felony because it was on federal property.

4. Ah, John Kline, a festering wart on the politics of Minnesota.

This should play very well in this year's election. Perhaps we can freeze the wart right off his district.

7. That's my Congressional misrepresentative...
Edited on Wed Jan-27-10 12:10 AM by Bjorn Against
I live in Kline's district and protest outside his office every Tuesday afternoon, Kline hates our protest so much that he is trying to have my friend thrown in jail for honking his horn in support of the protest. If you don't believe me you can see the police report for yourself at the link below, 90 days in jail for illegal use of "teh horn" (yes, believe it or not they really did spell it as "teh" in the police report).
