No race involvedTHE TRIALS OF JAMES O’KEEFE: “By O’Keefe’s own account, his racial troubles became acute when he entered the multicultural atmosphere of Rutgers University’s dormitory system. In an online diary that has since been scrubbed from the Web (but not before being captured on Daily Kos), he wrote that he was forced to live on an all-black dormitory floor after refusing to live with the gay roommate he was initially assigned. O’Keefe claimed his next roommate was ‘an Indian midget … who smelled like shit.’” Does he know that black people and Indian people are different? Well, depending on which type of “Indian,” of course. [Salon]

Forced to sleep in the Negro quarters, like some kind of animal. Hasn’t this young man suffered enough?

What kind of fraternity admits the coloreds, besides the ones they start themselves? What a loser.

Never forget: Rutgers is a state school, just like the University of Eastern Montana.

Oh wow. The kos excerpt is hilarious

“Then, to my horror, he actually said to the all-black RAs that I called everyone on the floor “niggers.” – a complete lie. It was my word against his. I was lead out of the room crying and screaming at him and my situation, no friends, no one one to talk to., forced to go in front of a black man, Dean Tolbert, to defend myself and help explain that I did not call anyone any names. “

I just don’t understand how at a school like Rutgers, filled with live, actual New Jerseyans, that he didn’t get the living shit kicked out of him on a weekly basis.

O’Keefe may have been unconsciously channeling one H. Finn, only without the moral redemption: “It was fifteen minutes before I could work myself up to go and humble myself to a nigger; but I done it, and I warn’t ever sorry for it afterwards, neither. I didn’t do him no more mean tricks, and I wouldn’t done that one if I’d a knowed it would make him feel that way.”

Now we know why he wanted to abort black people’s fetuses only. I’m sensing a trial strategy emerging here.

Wow — it’s almost like you can’t host a conference of white supremacists, give money to fund black abortions, complain about your non-Aryan dormmates and dress like a pimp to slander an organization that helps lots of black people without the liberal elite media jumping to conclusions. It’s a shame what’s happened to journalistic objectivity.

I don’t hold anything against O’Queef for not wanting to live with a gay roommate. I, myself, would NEVER want to live with a straight roommate, what with all the belching and farting and not putting the toilet seat back down.

mookworthjwilson February 3, 2010 at 1:42 pm

When I went to Rutgers I accidentally signed up late for housing and was forced to live on the “quiet floor”. The quiet floor featured about 5 people who were actually quiet and the rest of us were just idiots who signed up late for housing…including some psycho cokehead neighbor of mine who managed to get arrested for squatting in a condemned frat house…Fun times!!!

donner_froh February 3, 2010 at 1:44 pm

The picture of O’Keefe that Salon picked up could win a prize as worst photoshop disaster ever. WTF is with that white jacket that looks like it was hand drawn?

Everything about O’Keefe is detestable but publishing stuff like that give the right wing something to grab to show how the all the mean ACORN people are ganging up on this fine young man.

“[At Rutger’s, O’Keef held "affirmative action" bake sales with prices set based on the age and race of the buyer, posed as donors to Planned Parenthood seeking to contribute to the abortion of African-American fetuses only, and held a mock "Love Thy Prisoner" campaign to find American homes for Guantanamo inmates.”

“…O'Keefe credited [his lover Ben] Wetmore with giving him the idea for one of his most talked about video farces …: a campaign to rid a [Rutger’s] dining hall of Lucky Charms cereal, because it was offensive to Irish students.

In the video, O’Keefe quickly exhibited his absurdist improvisational style, telling a school official that the leprechaun on the cereal box appeared as “an Irish-American” who is “portrayed as a little green-cladded gnome or huckster.”

[re=506693]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: He has nothing against teh gays, but when his gay roomate started making fun of his gladiator posters and show tunes, that was the last straw. So he packed up his Strom Thurmond ’48 campaign collectibles and moved into the black dorm.

The more that is revealed about this “kid,” I can see that the only thing more shocking than his offensive comments is their complete unoriginality. This kid is the same culture shocked racist social misfit that dots every college campus in America and he contributes zero to the racist conversation. It’s all there….affirmative action is the reason I’m stuck in this state school….i hate how the liberal arts department is so super liberal….an entire university will not come to a grinding halt to acknowledge my whining because they hate my FREE SPEECH…even a mention of pro-life-ness that is sprinkled with the jealousy that not one of these college girls will give him the time of day. It’s all so completely pedestrian.

[re=506708]S.Luggo[/re]: The campus Republicans at UC Davis also organized an “affirmative action bake sale” and hosted an anti-abortion group who pushed the idea that Planned Parenthood was carrying out genocide on black babies. Apparently O’Keefe wasn’t just an annoying racisty git, he was an unoriginal annoying racisty git.

I have a theory that the campus conservatives at more liberal campuses work extra hard to be annoying. The Davis College Republicans, for example, organized a game of “illegal immigrant capture the flag” that featured INS agents with their hands tied behind their backs and “illegals” who were granted amnesty and allowed to tear down the American flag. Oh, and they chose to do this piece of retarded political theater on the start of the campus “La Raza Days”, which is a celebration of Latino culture. You really have to work hard to be that big of a bunch of assholes.
