Acorn video - encouraging committing crimes

[Modelworks]

Was watching fox this morning and they were showing the video. Probably not, or I would hope not, officially supported by acorn as policy, but showed a person who hid a camera and went to an acorn office for tax advice.

The workers their told them to file prostitution on their tax return as a 'performance art' . Then the guy told them he housed several girls under age for business purposes , age 13, and the workers told them to use them as dependents and if he was using them on the street to make sure he taught them to keep their mouths shut.


Would like to see the video in full. Anyone know a source ?

ACORN round up

I wonder how much of the $5 billion from obama will go to lawyers fees.

 

[Fear No Evil]

No, really. ACORN is just a community group who wants to get out of the vote! :roll:

Community Organizing at its finest.

And Modelworks, the news story is posted on FoxNews right now. The article has a link to the source, but I am unsure if the full video is posted there or not. I imagine it would be, but I can't check right now.

Well there was your first mistake...

But seriously, I suppose everyone will rush to judgment without having seen the video? That figures and seems to be happening a lot lately. I recall a bunch of wingnuts getting their panties in a wad over an Obama speech they'd never heard, nor never seen the text for.

Duh.

Duh.

If the allegations turn out to be true, what would you then say about ACORN or the Admin's ties to the group? If the allegations turn out to be true, would you support the removal of ACORN from the list of those who are eligible to receive "stimulus" or other Federal funds?

I watch all the networks then decide for myself. I'm sorry if you are so feeble minded that you can't watch something then make your own decisions.

Nobody ever saw the speech Obama was going to give. I'm guessing it is either shredded or burned, probably both.

I suspect Acorn will come out with a statement that those were just workers and that is not official policy. Same way they did with the voting .


Fox did plays parts of the video on tv, so it wasn't quotes. The Acorn worker was very clear about the things she was suggesting. I just wanted to see what else they said.

I guess it's ACORN that puts the Ho in Hope and Change.

So, if I let these "artists" perform for me, can I deduct it as a charitable contribution?

The list grows every day doesn't it?
We have Czars, sealed educational records, sealed employment records, no real track record of doing anything other than campaigning, Being wrong on several issues. Being a racists. Supporting partial birth abortions. Spening the US into insolvency. The list goes on.

Naturally, if particular ACORN employees in a particular ACORN office advocate illegal activity, that MUST be the official ACORN position that they recommend to all their workers. :disgust:

If multiple employees are advocating such activities; it is usually guided by the attitude of the management of the local office.

Mulitple locals would indicate a district policy or higher

Yeah, I just read the article on FOXNews.com. They're desperately spinning words to make it sound like this is ACORN policy when in reality, this is two very low level employees acting outside of the law.

Its like if a couple employees at your local Taco Bell were stealing from the cash drawer and giving their friends free tacos - that certainly isn't corporate policy, just the actions of lone criminals.

Me thinks that the acorn person has basic qualifications to become politician.
