OK now I know this is FOX and I know democrats just assume all of FOX is just against them, but how do you defend this?

And my real question, why is this story NOWHERE ELSE?  I mean this is disgusting...  This organization gets public funding!!!

My local news station ran the story...

CNN has the video up (the undercover vid).  I mean it isn\'t front and center, but yeah, shit doesn\'t look good for ACORN.

CNN has it up now?  Story has been out now for over a week.  I guess now that Acorn is doing an internal review they figured they had to run the story.

Acorn is finished...well maybe not the whole establishment...as maybe this is probably confined to that particular office, but if this is a wide spread operation, then yeah they need to be shut down.

Seems to be. I mean they went to what, 5 different offices and had similar results? The filmmaker said that he just got more and more ridiculous each time too. I find it funny that Acorn is trying to get the kid put in jail.

Didn\'t Obama work at ACORN?  Not that there is anything wrong with working there.

You have to admit, the prostitute is pretty hot.

Actually the interview I saw with the chick who played the prostitute on the day it came out, they asked her if she had verified any of the murder info and she said they hadn\'t yet, but they were working on it.

That\'s not really the point though is it?  Isn\'t the thought that the ACORN people are instructing a prostitute how to claim her illegal underage prostitutes on her 1099 that is a bit more important?

Well beck is a retard. I flip to his show while something I\'m watching is on a commercial because every second he says something really stupid. Its funny to me. I knew he was gonna fuck up the Acorn story one way or another because he\'s such an attention whore.

You know if he\'d tone it down a few notches he\'d probably have a lot more viewers.  Not sure why he has to be so over the top crazy.

I\'m too lazy to look it up, but isn\'t it the same lady that claimed the murder that was instructing the prostitute?  I mean, at that point she was just fucking with the "journalists".  Or so she claims.

Very true. Hell Glenn Beck is a big supporter of marijuana legalization. At the very least he could be king of the internet.
