And to think, people were actually worried that the Superbowl might make the political season boring by comparison.

Instant Update: I make little jokes and all but, seriously, check this out.

Also arrested were Joseph Basel, Stan Dai and Robert Flanagan, all 24. Flanagan is the son of William Flanagan, who is the acting U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Louisiana, the office confirmed. All four were charged with entering federal property under false pretenses with the intent of committing a felony.

Just think about that for a sec. This will be interesting.

Almost as instant upperdate because the update wasn't complete:

Robert Flanagan's attorney, J. Garrison Jordan, said he believes his client works for the Pelican Institute. Asked the motivation for the alleged wiretap plot, he said: "I think it was poor judgment. I don't think there was any intent or motive to commit a crime."

You see the son of the acting U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Louisiana, who works for a local conservative political organization just attempted a break-in at the office of a sitting Democratic U.S. Senator. See what I mean about interesting when you write it all out like that?

Slightly less instant uppestdate just for bonus fun: The Federal offense here falls under the jurisdiction of Rebuplican U.S. Attorney Jim Letten. Wonder how that's going to work. Maybe John Georges was right all along.
