It is typical in a facist regime that whistle blowers are prosecuted while those who were exposed as criminals and frauds get protection. This is why the House leaders want Joe Wilson punished for yelling a single word while a tax fraud heading the committee making tax laws doesn't even concern them.
Of course the tax fraud belongs the "The Party" and they 'rally round their own crooks.
It should come as no surprise that the young man and woman who exposed the vulgar corruption of ACORN is threatened with prosecution. It is one of the very common tactics of totalitarian regimes that enemies of the state must be silenced and punished. Gulags anyone?
We are talking about an organization that recieves potentially billions of taxpayer dollars. The so-called "mainstream media" which is far left has no interest in uncovering their criminal conduct. They are much more interested in seeing James O'Keefe thrown in jail for exposing the truth.
This is not a fluke. This is how the left operates in this country and every country where they gain power. The corruption is endemic to them, it is part of what they are. We are witnessing how a country goes from being more or less free to unfree.
Today I think we can say the US is officially a proto-tyranny. Those hundreds of thousands of people demonstrating in DC and in dozens of other cities across the country. It'll be a one-day story in the state media and they will explain them away and put them down as "angry", "anti-government", "racist" et al.
We have always been at war with Eastasia
