Acorn Scandal

[Shooter]

Who gives a fuck who is behind it? You think Fox news found some half retarded morons and got them jobs at acorn?

If Fox news found Natalie Holloway alive would you be pissed?


Whoever is behind it deserves a fucking award for showing regular people the kind of bullshit that goes on in this world.

Post of the Year, as far as I'm concerned.

Thank you, thank you very much. Is there a cash prize that goes with this award?

I just can't believe the effect this one network is having on Barack Obama's presidency and administration. They are out to take anything down that is literally linked to him.

You mean like ABC, NBC, CBS, and CNN were trying to take Bush down?

I don't know if it was FOX, but I don't think these two conceived and executed the idea without some kind of help. I've seen interviews with the woman that played the prostitute, and she seems like she's reading from a script.

Apparently the guy has done this sort of thing before at Planned Parenthood, so I think it's quite possible they were independent. She's just a bad actor too.

The guy and gal both say they did this on their own. If FOX news was behind it, why wouldn't they take credit? Bottom line, as stated above, is that ACORN is a rotten organization. Very willing to help perpetrate tax fraud, and have no problems helping set up a whorehouse with teenage girls from El Salvadore.

The transcript and and video is at biggovernment.com.

Interesting that ACORN's first response was that the video was 'false and inflamatory'. Then they fired the two workers at Baltimore the next day. Yeah, false and inflamatory my ass.

Pretty stunning how long it took the major media outlets to report this, given our 'free press' and all.

Obama worked for a community organizing outfit that was affiliated with ACORN when he started out in Chicago. The Prez represented ACORN in a federal lawsuit in 1995. I'd would like to hear how he feels about all this.

11 ACORN workers were charged with voter fraud last week. There were lot's of speculation that ACORN was a party to widespread voter fraud in last fall's elections, but not much was proven.

If you are not outraged by this, you should be....ACORN has received over $12.5 million of your tax dollars from 2003-2007. And, while the numbers are being disputed, the amount that ACORN received from the bailout/stimulus plan is in the billions.

Now ACORN is disgraced, funding is being cut off and the Census Bureau has cut ties with them. Democrats in Congress can't seem to move away from ACORN fast enough, now that they've been exposed for the rats they are.

My question now is, Will those employees be charged with conspiracy to commit tax fraud, or will it just be swept under the table?

Which is why Fox is by far the worst cable "news" station. Having bias is one thing, every channel has it, some more than others. But having an actual agenda you are pushing, and being a certain party's mouthpiece along with fabricating news to fit that agenda and make it fit one party and disgrace another? And of course the owners of the station putting out e-mails telling people what to do. Like after Obama was, the e-mail read "Not the end of the world, lets go ask extremists what they think of Obama's win". And sure enough, the next day, lol.

And of course claiming you are "fair and balanced" in the process.

As for this incident, it doesn't matter who is behind it. I'm pissed my tax dollars went to a company that would even think of doing this. Fuck ACORN.

That is utter garbage and a complete lie....

So FOX is pushing an agenda for reporting on the story when the other major news organizations did not? Nice "biased view" yourself there....

Fox is the mouth piece for the republican party. If you think i'm making this up you must be extremely blinded, because the proof is all there. Hell, its on YouTube.

BTW, have you watched "Outfoxed - Rupert Murdoch's war on Journalism"?

Yeah Fox is on right, CCN is a little left of the middle, the rest are way on the left, and the right owns radio. What's your point?

Do you think this is a important story? Why wasn't a story as big as this one reported by all news agencies the next day? (Hint: It reflects badly on the left.)
