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.

For those little ACORNS to grow, they have to be surrounded by allot of dirt and manure.

Ya gotta wonder...how many ACORN employees are sweating it out right now, waiting for their shoe to drop on biggovernment.com?

Rep. Charles Boustany, R-La., called for a hearing to investigate ACORN's tax filing assistance programs following the release of the videos he said suggested multiple incidents of tax fraud.

Maybe Rangel has been getting his tax advice from ACORN.

The guy was just interviewed on Hannity.

He said he was amazed. No matter what wildly illegal and immoral activity he came up with, ACORN was right there with him to help him get away with it.

The ACORN reps were the ones that brought in the “tax expert”, without the guy asking, in order to figure out how to avoid paying taxes on their “income”.

If ACORN was a GOP supporter there would be hell to pay in front of Congress.
The GOP needs to step up to the plate and grow a pair.

That’s what I’m hoping for. Another tape every day for a couple of weeks. Or months.

Maybe some other people will get some good ideas from this young couple.............

I’m beginning to think FoxNews is kind of liking this. They seem to be the new investigative journalism branch.

Since the MSM has spent years handing out "passes" to every left wing group on the planet - these folks are used to getting away with murder. When FOX sends their teams in, it'll be as easy as shooting fish in a barrel... and twice as much fun.

Beck implied on the radio that this operation has been in the works for a couple of months, and asked his listeners how high we can count. I knew this was a one day story if there was no follow up, but there is much more to come.

The people that need to go are the slave masters who run this criminal organization.

IRS should be auditing every single tax return prepared by them.

If they got caught with one you know there are thousands of others.

Remember, Bob, this was a sting operation involving Breitbart -

the pimp & ho were NOT a pimp and ho.

Brietbart or O’Keefe said there are 48 hours of tape. If the Baltimore tape is 1 hour, and the DC tape is about an hour, well... (insert Jeopardy music).

If this doesn’t trigger the elimination of all funding to ACORN, SEIU, etc., then we’re doomed.

“The ACORN staffer is heard suggesting that O’Keefe can purchase a house, and as the landlord, if he is ever questioned by authorities, he can say he was unaware of the illegal business going on inside”

Sounds familiar......

The MSM’s not reporting the story yet...

No, they are calling out the smear merchants like Joe Conason (Lewinsky scandal fame) to smear the reporter who caught this on camera!

I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see Hannah Giles as a regular on Fox News in the near future. She’s got the brains, the guts, and the looks.
