In case anyone missed
Glenn Beck
's shocking new video unveiled today of the latest undercover ACORN sting--this time in San Bernadino, CA.
Don't miss this explosive NEW video where we learn:
"Teresa," an ACORN staff member in San Bernadino, used to be involved in the prostitution business herself;
Establishing a "school" 501(c)3 organization could be a good way to cover-up the human-trafficking of young children for the sex industry;
ACORN is working with liberal politicians in pushing for President Obama current health care proposal (in case you hadn't figured that out already);
Budding politician James shouldn't worry about laundering the money he gets for his campaign from his hooker-girlfriend's business because President Obama and other politicians--including Kennedys--aren't
completely
honest in disclosing where their money comes from; and
People who are opposed to things like prostitution are "narrow-minded" "one-sided" "right-wing" "bleeding hearts," and if "people were liberals, they'd be helping."

who have never learned to accept responsibility for their actions, worthless liberals and Acorn Reparations R-US are again practicing what they do best; blame everyone else when they get caught. And no, those four black walking waterbeds did not get fired. Do you really think that the proletariat does not represent the entire Communist Party?
These degenerates cannot stand exposure for what they are; the arm-pits of American society. They represent the despicable of the despicable and now fall back on the Democrat Party teat to get them out of another treacherous crime. And now, as anticipated, seven US Senators voted to sustain criminality and this social and moral betrayal.
The scum videotaped tolerating,...

You sure got that right, Shipmate!
Did you see where ABC News apologized to Obama and MSNBC because one of their reported sent a tweet that reported that Obama had called KANYE WEST a Jacka$$?
What does ABC think they are -- cheerleaders for Obama?
It makes one wonder if the majority of the media even knows what their job is supposed to be.

our politicians our money to spend. They can't be trusted. People need to take responsibilty for themselves, and if they don't, too bad for them. If charities and generous individuals and non-profits want to help people, they are free to do so - I encourage it. But, that is not the job of politicians.

wont recognize it, I've seen this called a "sting", "undrcover jounalism" and several things I wont repeat.
But what it actually is is darn good "Muckraking" journalism, a lost art. It goes back at least 200 years in America, some of the best were, Upton Sinclair, and Don Hewit (of 60 minutes)who brought us to Woodward and Bernstein. And now we have Giles and O'Keefe, long may they rake.

"ACORN needs to be audited, put on official notice that they must have a plan to correct, perform oversight, and have detailed measurable benchmarks, on any affiliated office."
There are liberals on this site that I do not read and would not answer even if I did -- they contribute nothing except call folks names, such as "wingnut," "asshat" and the like. Such tactics make me think they are mean, nasty folks who probably never made more than 20K per year and hate everybody, for this reason.
You are not one of these. I don't usually agree with you, but I read and enjoy your posts because you are usually civil and make good points.
I agree with you this time. And your comment reflects honesty, rather than total...

How would you respond to Marty's post of 12:27a.m.
"If the Catholic church were receiving taxpayer funding and telling pedophiles how to set up shop the liberal media would be reporting the story."
You say to press charges or save us the disgrace. It would be convenient to avoid the embarrassment and let this subject die. I might add it is not the role of these individuals to press charges any more than it is the role of any reporter to press charges.
Bringing charges against any individual is the role of law enforcement. Those "charges" are potentially criminal in nature and that is the role of government. An individual could sue in civil court not in criminal court.

Really? Seriously? We have a sex obsession?
How about this one? What we have a problem with is the fact that these people are supposed to be law-abiding citizens helping people, who are subverting laws and encouraging prostitution of a 20 year old and little girls! That is the problem and it is not a political issue, even though our President trained these people and lawyered for them!
The point, you freaking idiot is that this is not right, in any way shape or form. Not only do they break laws, but they abuse the status of their organization and the taxpayer money that is funded them. That is the problem. Wake the hell up!

I wish you all would stop using the term MSM. They are no longer main stream and haven't been for decades. A new term is in order. USM maybe....Urine Stream Media. I think this would be appropriate because they spend most of their reporting time to urinate on any story that may have the effect of awakening people to the fact that our emperor is wearing no clothing.
I hope the next installments of Acorn videos are more damning than this one. The woman on this video seems to me to be a meth head. Her actions make me believe that she is high. San Bernardino is a pretty nasty meth lab area after all. It still shows that Acorn should be dismantled but I thought the first three videos were far more damning.

Barack Obama taught ACORN well.
If you want to see what kind of "Character" Barack Obama has - just look at ACORN.
If you want know what America will be like while Barack Obama is POTUS - just look at ACORN.
If you want to understand the 'Morals' Barack Obama has - just look at ACORN.
If you want to know how 'Honest and Truthful' Barack Obama is - just look at ACORN.

Finally we get to see the results of the work of Barack Obama the community agitator. He did a fine job training these folks, yes he did, and he was probably very busy defending them, too. Now we know exactly what he means by 'community service.' Some may disapprove of using tax payer dollars to fund criminal enterprises, however those people are merely racists and should be ignored. I, personally, am proud to have a president that worked with and for such a noble organization. You should be, too.

And don't forget Acorn's role in getting the Community Re-investment Act through back in the 70's. The first chapter in our current mortgage crisis.

At least these trolls are getting to see first-hand the events that are taking down the Obama Administration and which will likely end the Democrat Party for good.
Those intellectual isolationists who never watch anything but Olbermann or the other MSM shills will have absolutely no idea what hit them.
We'll just let them sit in their caves with Osama and Obama and cry about how those nasty Repubs stole the election again.

The MSM played the happy clam on the Van Jones story, and the American people went around them to get him removed from the Obama Administration.
The MSM is sitting under their cone of silence on this story, too, hoping no one wil notice. But obviously people ARE noticing, and the Senate--including Al Franken, who owes his seat to the efforts of ACORN--has voted for an amendment that would defund this organization.
Memo to ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, WaPo, NYT, LAT, MSNBC, AP, Reuters, and all you other pseudo news organizations: You guys are history.

Investigative journalists should be covering stories such as ACORN, but instead we've got a couple of kids doing that job.
If the Catholic church were receiving taxpayer funding and telling pedophiles how to set up shop the liberal media would be reporting the story.

It should be interesting to see what else the dynamic duo have got on ACORN. Personally, I don't care if they helped Obama get elected, that's their right. However, they shouldn't be doing that with taxpayer money and they certainly shouldn't be telling people how to evade the law as a matter of course.

ACORN receives 40% of its funding from Government subsidies.
With all the help they are providing to pimps and prostitutes (and God knows who else)...I think it's only fitting that they receive that 40% from them.
