ACORN Fires More Officials for Helping 'Pimp,' 'Prostitute' in Washington Office
Foxnews ^ | 9/11/2009 | Staff

Posted on 09/11/2009 1:15:41 PM PDT by Red in Blue PA

Two more ACORN officials were fired Friday after a second video surfaced showing staffers in the community organizers' Washington office offering to help a man and woman posing as a pimp and prostitute acquire illegal home loans that would help them set up a brothel.

The firings came less than 24 hours after another pair of ACORN officials from the group's Baltimore office were canned for instructing the "pimp" and "prostitute" how to falsify tax forms and seek illegal benefits for 13 "very young" girls from El Salvador that pair said they wanted to import to work as child prostitutes.

Both of the encounters were videotaped on a hidden camera wielded by 25-year-old independent filmmaker James O'Keefe, posing as the pimp — tapes that have ignited calls for investigations of ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

Do you have any theory about why the MSM isn't jumping all over this story? My feeling is that either

1. they don't care -

or 2. they are so used to protecting dem victim groups that they can't see how horrible this is OR

3. they think all blacks are lowlife criminals so this is "normal".

In short they are 1. morally bankrupt 2. biased beyond our wildest imaginations or 3. racists. What else could it be?

Option 4. All 3 of the above!

I missed that - you're right - it's 4. all of the above. Thanks.

Well, I called back and told him that considering I pay his paycheck, I’d appreciate it if he didn’t hang up on me. He told me that California taxpayers pay his salary. I told him fine, but I pay his boss’s and I want to now why taxpayer dollars are going to help an organization provide advice on tax evasion and fraud and setting up child prostitution rings. He said that the ACORN investigation is still on-going. I said oh really, Conyers said “the powers that be” told him to drop it.

I agree. Although I don’t think it’s a waste of time, it really isn’t going to amount to anything until and unless present-day, real time connections are made between the ACORN scum and the White House scum. Who in Washington is going to do that? Maybe a handful of pub congressmen will try if they ever have the power to follow through with it. But it really has to be investigated by the justice department to make any progress and that isn’t going to happen as long as ostammer is in the WH. The inspector General could investigate it from the vantage of taxpayer money being given to these scum, but it’s real easy to pull the rug out from under the IG by withholding funding and through other measures. It’s actually a RICO case and that means the justice dept., which ain’t gonna happen for at least 3.5 years, if ever at all.

CUT ALL FEDERAL FUNDING!

BTTT.

Clearly ACORN is an enterprise riddled with crime. In just this week, we have seen first wholesale vote fraud in Miami and now these unbelievable videos from Baltimore and D.C.

It is beyond stupid to continue to give these people tax money.

And the Kenyan Clown's close association for decades with ACORN now must be given closer scrutiny.

"Our government is beyond help, no matter what, notwithstanding the threats.It’s on a full blown murder suicide path with the media, all helping bozoZero clown consistently throughout."

I agree with totally with your assessment of the US Government and it's unholy alliance with the socialism promoting media establishment in America. The Democrat Party has been waging a political war against those who believe in those values and traditions that have made America the great country it is now. But how long will the war be contained within the political arena? My belief is that we have about a decade before this country explodes. We cannot coexist with the socialist Democrat Party tyrants and overlords. Never.

Here’s the spin ...

“We do not come to this decision lightly,” Census director Robert Groves wrote in a letter to ACORN, which was obtained by The Associated Press.

In splitting with ACORN, Groves sought to tamp down GOP concerns and negative publicity that the partnership will taint the 2010 head count.

“It is clear that ACORN’s affiliation with the 2010 census promotion has caused sufficient concern in the general public, has indeed become a distraction from our mission, and may even become a discouragement to public cooperation, negatively impacting 2010 census efforts,” Groves wrote.

Anybody want to bet me that the real reason the two Baltimore Acorn chicks got fired is that they were running a kiddie daycare operation in a back room of Acorn’s building and were not kicking back a % to Big Daddy Acorn.? That baltimore tape had constant multiple small child noise coming from the back room. And one of the chicks offered the fake ho a discount on filing her income tax forms ( regular $ 150 but for you $ 50 ). From here one can only guess how many ways the whole Acorn crowd is screwing each other-——but it sure is fun to watch.

Where’s the unions to defend these workers? Can ACORN management just fire people from one day to the next? No hearing? No due process? Maybe the SEIU should organize ACORN. ;^)
