This video was made public Thursday on BigGovernment.com, a political blog launched by Andrew Breitbart. In the videotape, James O’Keefe, a 25-year-old independent filmmaker, posed as a pimp with a 20-year-old woman named “Kenya” who posed as a prostitute while visiting ACORN’s office in Baltimore. The results are shocking to say the least.
I tend to tune out Glenn Beck when he goes witch hunting. I didn’t pay much attention to the ACORN voter fraud scandal. I completely ignored him when he found out about ACORN’s tax evasion problem and embezzling by its former president. I even became irritated and lost respect for him when he tried tying “the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now” to President Obama.
ACORN undeniably has a vast reach over our country within low to moderate income families and communities. Team that up with the amount of federal and state money it receives and we have no choice but to start asking for answers. House Republican Leader John Boehner released this information showing how much federal aid ACORN is provided. I hate to sound like Glenn Beck but it is time we rise up as a country and hold our government and programs like this responsible for wasting our hard earned tax dollars.

Check this one out, read the top paragraph, not sure if you saw this yesterday..

I didn’t see that. It is a shame. Hard to blame the people though, right? If they are getting paid to sign up voters that type of stuff is bound to happen.
I think most of ACORN’s practices are questionable to say the least. I believe they are a shady organization. Of course they’ll try and pin this on the employees in the video but I’m not buying it and I hope no one else is either.
[…] very serious videos all over the internet. Remember ACORN, the organization having problems with voter fraud and tax evasion while consuming millions of our tax dollars? When this happened, the NY times and the rest of the […]
