The outrageous slander against ACORN

Are you happy to acknowledge your blatant hypocrisy? You berate others for failing to back their thoughts with facts, yet you continue to spew your anti-ACORN smears backed solely by your wishful thinking, ignoring the contrary facts presented.

You might look up the meaning of the word hypocritical.

I see no change in the nature of ACORN and thus I continue to condemn it. No hypocrisy there.

I see that a couple of kids adopt the agitprop mechanisms that the Left thought was theirs alone to use and I applaud it. No hypocrisy there.

I see two or three radical lefty hipsters dancing with glee over a single news story (well, if I had as little to celebrate as you, maybe I would be doing a jig as well :awe🙂 And I laugh at them. No hypocrisy there.

I lifted my glass to the demise of ACORN long ago. What exactly are you celebrating?

The fact that Bush is gone, the GOP is out of power, and we made you guys even more bathshit insane by passing UHC.

Also the fact that you can't respond to your quoted lies out of shame.

What do you feel is the nature of ACORN as an organization that justifies it having propaganda made up about it and its employees in order to demonize it?

Not in this thread you are not. But thanks for the irrelevant reference.

Hmm. I posted reports of malfeasance, established and defended a logical position and then you go on a rampage of calling myself and half the active participants of this forum out?

What is the point? Sheesh, get a life!

Oh, sorry, hipsters have no life. :awe:

(Got to take a break here for an hour or so, real life things to do, but I'll beee baaaack! ROTFLMAO!)

I don't think you're reading impaired (though cognitive dissonance is certainly a problem for you), so I imagine you're just being dishonest again. You quoted only two sentences, and the second laid out exactly how you're being hypocritical:

"You berate others for failing to back their thoughts with facts, yet you continue to spew your anti-ACORN smears backed solely by your wishful thinking, ignoring the contrary facts presented."
I'll also point out you nicely demonstrated my next point (which you conveniently cut), that you consistently fail to offer on-topic rebuttals but instead prattle on with non-responsive duhversions. I love being right, but you could try making it more challenging.

Oh gee i wonder why i called you guys out, does it have anything to do with the fact that everything you guys said was based on a pack of lies?

You still can't respond to your own quote because it's a blatant lie. Deal with it.
 
THIS is your idea of the biggest journalistic fraud ever???? Well, you don't do much reading then, have you? Stickin to the ol' DU and DK to keep your thoughts pure, are ya?

I never could understand how anyone who considers themselves well informed would not have at least a cursory understanding of an opposition viewpoint.

Even if you are as doctrinaire as you appear to be, wouldn't you even consider an opposition would have something worthy to contribute to a discussion, even make it more fun once you become engaged with fact rather than conjecture? Is walking around with blinders on REALLY that comfortable?

A clickthrough to a non-lefty website is probably worth a magnanimous 1/10th of a cent to them. Ten page views and, wow, they have some advertiser's red cent!

Your posts to ignore that man behind the curtain are hysterical. Admit you were taken in by scam artists pandering to your Conservative Republican bias, eat some crow and forget it.
 
So I guess the anguish of losing a target for indignant outrage has caused some here to offer themselves up to be soundly thrashed with facts and their own post history?

Wow. Seems like cognitive dissonance might not be the only malady at play here.


Anyone else guessing what organic Sumatran and tears tastes like? 😉

Yet, even the edited video clearly has a full shot of him walking into the ACORN office in a button down, and slacks. Weird. Are we sure the authorities Juan called weren't his "contacts" to help the smuggling? He did say he had a lot of contacts.

As far as MSNBC ...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fvBQDHqdCck

They don't have a good record of telling the truth, more to the point, they have a great record of making up their own truth. It's a great video, it's got the concise investigative journalism where they used incendiary device to insure that a truck blew up in an expose about exploding gas tanks, and when they edited footage of a black man carrying an AR15 to cut out his color, and then raved about racist carrying guns to a Obama rally.

Still waiting on someone to give me a good reason to believe MSNBC when they have a documented history of deceit and outright lies.

How about disproving the points the points Maddow made on the video instead of digging up issues that have nothing to do with the topic?
 
Doesn't matter if the video was edited or not, the fact remains that ACORN advised a pimp and a prostitute how to subvert the law.

The first video does, given that, and their history of credibility problems I'm not going to just up and believe what they say. The second point about someone calling the cops, I'd like to hear more about that, and whether or not more of ACORN employees called the cops after discussing illegal activities, and the one that called I'd like to see it substantiated that they called to turn them in. Their third point, again, which video was it? There were many, so we know that in one of them this is said, what about the others?

Miss me yet?

I have a few minutes to dash off a post before dinner is served. Tonight, for the perennially curious, it is to be a New England seafood bake (yay!) accompanied by a Penns Woods Pinot Grigio Reserve, the 2005, in keeping with the local food theme of the evening. I find Penns Woods is a bit overpriced on most of their offerings but the Pinot Grigio is a very fair value.

Where was I? Oh, yes, commenting on your causes for celebration.

Bush is gone, but he wasn't going to run for a third term anyway. Obama, our very own Neville Chamberlain, along with Mr. Foot In Mouth Biden, ran against Bush (though he wasn't in the race) and Palin (who was not the candidate for president.)

The Dim ticket won against a geriatric (with all due respect for Senator McCain) and the Governor of ALASKA (for all of a couple of years! and with all due respect for Governor Palin whom I believe will prevail against the hyperventilating of the national press and the personal attacks against her kids. Stay classy, guys!)

Props to Team OB for overcoming!

Dem Dems are in CHARGE right now! Wow, what a swing to the left!

Only problem is, the country is, on the whole, saying, "WTF, didn't we vote for moderates, not socialists? They sure sounded like centrists, what the h**ll is going on???"

The Congress certainly isn't going to answer that question so they continue on with 10% approval ratings, never looking up from Rahm Emanuel's twinkle toes ever ready to kick some cojones in the sauna, to see the massive reaction where the country votes the bums out. If I am wrong there, I will make a specially big charity donation to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation.

We have health insurance "reform" now! Wow, the government just imposed a mandate that you have to buy a health insurance policy whether you want to or not. And if you don't, well, Team Obama is hiring tens of thousands more IRS agents to fine you and put you in jail. Got to do something about that unemployment rate, folks, cause those Census jobs aren't going to be there very long!

Which brings me to ACORN, one of the most corrupt groups in the country. A massive criminal enterprise, founded to destroy governmental support services in the cause of revolution, that stands behind the Democrat Party 100%. The lefties cried when ACORN was going down, yes they did. Who would steal votes for them now, cried the little Dems? Boo hoo hoo.

What powerful entity could bring down the largest Democrat organization in the country?

Was it the Repubs? Nah, they couldn't raise a vote or a fundraise a dollar they were so depressed.

Was it the Mainstream Media, the champions of faked investigative reporting and faked documents (all in the cause of Democrat victory?) Nah, they were looking to the New York Times editorial board for their cues and we know how far their heads are up the donkey's a**.

Nah, it was two kids, one barely out of college, the other one still in. In they walked, into half a dozen ACORN offices, and filmed management and staff ever so willing to commit mortgage fraud, support child prostitution and other nefarious activities.

ACORN heads rolled, yes they did! Damage control by the lefties and the Dems (same thing) went into full swing! But they could not overcome the words that were recorded. There was no overdubbing, the words could not be taken back.

Some thought that ACORN and staff could be brought up on felony fraud charges, for advising tax fraud, for encouraging child prostitution, but that wasn't the case. Giving advice to do so is not a crime, it seems. Even conspiracy could not directly apply to an organization institutionally offering such advice but not committing the crimes themselves.

And that is the crux of the story.

Offered up by Rachel Maddow, the Stan Laurel character of BSNBC, partnered with the jolly commissar Olbermann on two of the most left wing, least watched cable shows running.

When Maddow is not running déshabillé around Portland with her "sisters," she makes snarky and ill researched comments on a cable show derived from her failed Air America stint. And this is the moving pictures source for so many of our lefty peers in this forum, when they can drag themselves away from the DU and the DK, that is.

Anyway, the dinner bell has rung and I must answer forthwith!

Perhaps we might meet a bit later this evening? I have a little more information on ACORN to share. Shhhhh. It is a secret that only those who don't bother with MSNBC might know about!

ROTFLMAO! I have to wipe my tears away before I get to dinner lest they drop into the Pinot Grigio and spoil the fruitiness I am so fully expecting!

:awe::awe::awe:

Do you even believe your own bullshit, or what?

You're being just a tad hysterical here, don't you think?

Which brings me to ACORN,
Ah ha! We're finally going to get back on topic, no doubt with detailed information supported by links to reasonably objective and credible sources (because, you know, that PJibberJabber rags on others for only posting opinions without substance and support).


one of the most corrupt groups in the country. A massive criminal enterprise, founded to destroy governmental support services in the cause of revolution, that stands behind the Democrat Party 100%.
OK, guess not. No links, no substance, no support. Just a bunch of hysterical nonsense backed by hot air and PJ's bloated ego.

Hmm.

Well, since PJibber (predictably) ignored my pointing out his hypocrisy, let's see how he likes the taste of his own words:
"Every time someone posts a comment like this, I go to look at their most recent posts.

"Guess what? INEVITABLY all of their posts are purely personal opinions! As are yours!

"Amazing, a forum full of complainers and whiners who post nothing of substance - no quotes, no references, no articles, no links to information sources, no supporting commentary by recognized third party experts, no insightful analyses.

"Just. Personal. Opinion. Backed up with nothing.

"Why do you even bother being so boring? And on topics you know nothing of and care less about?"
Revel in your shameless hypocrisy, PJ. It's one of your most notable talents.


The lefties cried when ACORN was going down, yes they did. Who would steal votes for them now,
Here's one of those inconvenient facts you dodge so diligently -- there's no evidence ACORN has ever "stolen" votes. None. Nada. Zip. Zilch. That's one of the many blatant lies parroted by right wing sock puppets in their blind zeal to swiftboat ACORN. Collected (and dutifully reported) fraudulent registrations? Yes. Used fraudulent registrations to vote? NO!

Sorry PJ, time to move on to new lies.



[ So much boring drivel, so little content ...]

Nah, it was two kids, one barely out of college, the other one still in.
No, it was the RNC slime machine cranking out its signature dishonest propaganda. The "kids" were just the latest vehicle.


[ Still more "Just. Personal. Opinion. Backed up with nothing." clipped because it was boring and stale. ]
You're a clown PJ. Always have been. Always will be. Thanks for the laughs.
