PROGS CAUGHT ON TAPE MOCKING A PARAPLEGIC

The courageous and relentless James O'Keefe has done it again!

While investigating Obamacare Navigators, Battleground Texas, and their connection to Obama's Organizing for America, we caught some deeply offensive comments on tape.

It seems Battleground Texas and Wendy Davis' strategy to win the Governor's seat is to mock Attorney General Abbott's disability. We caught Davis supporters and Battleground Texas staff on tape making crude statement such as "isn't that amazing to think of? He's in a wheelchair and we want to stand with Wendy?"

Even more disturbing was an election official who when asked about forging signatures covered her ears and then went on to admit, "People do that all the time." A Battleground Texas volunteer then added, "I don't think it's legal but I didn't hear you say that."

Here is some info on Lisa Wortham of Battleground Texas.  

This isn't the first time Battleground Texas has openly mocked Abbott's disability:

Battleground Texas, the Obama-run group of out-of-state political operatives, is leading the Texas Democrats' campaign to install Wendy Davis in the governor's mansion. Battleground Texas is supposed to fill the role of political pros blazing a trail for the Texas Democrat campaigns, who have not won anything statewide in Texas in a very long time.

Emails like the one Battleground Texas sent out Thursday will not make their difficult task any easier.

Get it!? Abbott has been in a wheel chair since he was 26 years old after a tree fell on him while running and paralyzed him from the waist down.

The email, or rather the silence so far regarding the email, raises another question: Where are the Texas media on the story? Surely Christy Hoppe, the Texas Tribune and other political reporters and outlets covering the campaign are on the Battleground Texas email list and received the email above. It went out Thursday afternoon, so they have had time to write up pieces about it. But where are those stories?

Battleground Texas' email flub isn't the first mistake that the error-prone Democrats have committed supporting Davis' campaign. On the day of her big announcement, Davis' first official campaign email included a link that was intended to go to her own campaign web site. But instead, it pointed to a site created to expose her record.

Davis introduced herself to Texas voters in a video that included iconic Texas imagery of cattle ranchers. But that video just highlighted the fact that when Davis had the chance to protect cattle ranchers from thieves by increasing the penalties for livestock theft, Wendy Davis voted with the thieves.

Moe Lane has a word of warning for all those who are foolish enough to associate with Battleground Texas:

What James O'Keefe has demonstrated here is that Battleground Texas isn't competent enough to make sure that anything told to them stays in confidence. If you are a Texas Democrat and you have ever spoken candidly to a Battleground Texas staffer, let this act as a not-friendly observation: you may have been recorded. You cannot trust any assurances from Battleground Texas that it did not happen in your case. And you had better hope that you didn't say anything stupid, vile, and/or prosecutable.

As it turns out, the Davis campaign can't even get it's response right:

The video released Thursday by Project Veritas purports to show footage from a meeting of Battleground Texas volunteers and another from a meeting of an Austin Democratic group. Shortly after its release, Davis, who was not in attendance at the meetings featured in the video, released a statement calling the language in it "abhorrent."

"Greg Abbott has persevered through great personal challenge to raise a family, have a productive career, and for that he deserves our respect," she said.

But in the very same article a couple of her desperate flunkies tried to make O'Keefe the villain:

Bo Delp, Davis' communications director, called the video one of O'Keefe's "trademark deceptive videos."

"O'Keefe is trying to create the impression that Wendy Davis attended this meeting and condones the language in this video," he said in a statement.

Battleground Texas spokesman Ellis Brachman said the video "says a lot more about Republicans than Battleground Texas: If they're desperate enough to use a well-known liar who has been repeatedly discredited by journalists, legal experts, and his own party to falsely attack us, they must be scared that voters are going to have a real choice at the ballot box this November."

So...which is it?  Were the comments "abhorrent" as Davis said or was this all an elaborate hoax by a "liar" as her minions claimed?  Watch the 3+ hours of raw footage here and decide for yourself.  And who are they to be accusing somebody else of lying in the first place?
