The two conservative activists who captured ACORN employ ees giving advice on the sex trade and money-laundering only play a pimp and prostitute on video.
In real life, Hannah Giles, 20, isn't a lady of the night. She's a minister's daughter studying jour nalism at Florida International Uni versity.
And James E. O'Keefe III, 25, a Fordham MBA student from New Jersey, isn't a pimp so much as a pro vocateur -- determined to expose what he sees as the hypocrisies and moral lapses of liberals by employing their own tactics against them.
The pair met last year on Facebook after O'Keefe posted his own gotcha videos, showing Planned Parenthood employees agreeing to his request to earmark his donations for the abor tions of African-American babies.
After Giles proposed the ACORN video-sting idea, O'Keefe -- who started making the videos while a stu dent at Rutgers University -- pounced on it. "Why go after ACORN?" Giles asked. "Because I love America, I love God, and corrupt institutions don't help that."
After six weeks of research, Giles said they scavenged together their cos tumes from friends, except for the pimp coat, which was on loan from O'Keefe's grandmother.
In total, the project cost them $1,300.

...Jon Stewart on ACORN and the MSM media blackout
Two brave souls against the goons of the world. Awesome is an understatement.
Oh yeah, especially if it was an expose of Jerry Falwell's organization or any other Christian group that supports traditional American values. The headlines and breathless network reports would be never-ending.
Lovin’ it.

Hot diggidy dog! He is A Reicest also! Notify the MSM! We gots us a live one!
Sarc/0ff
I frankly don’t understand how they pulled it off. They both look way too wholesome to fit the character roles.
That’s a great picture. His get-up is a little over the top but she has a certain hard look that makes her credible.
I think it was Sean Hannity who said the other night that O’Keefe had to be the most unconvincing pimp ever.
LoL his grandma’s coat?
He’s extremely creative and talented. The donation for abortions for black babies to planned parenthood? I’m speechless.. Terrible!
“I frankly dont understand how they pulled it off. They both look way too wholesome to fit the character roles.”
I was thinking the same thing. I’ve seen the ‘real’ deal on the streets of Detroit. NOTHING like this gal. She doesn’t look mal-nourished, disease-ridden, scarred, unwashed, filthy clothes, etc...
In their book, The Fourth Turning, authors Strauss and Howe, predict that just around this time a new generation will emerge in America full of Idealism, Courage, and the will to clean up the mess left over by their parents and grand parents generations. These two wonderful and tough young people are the harbingers of that new generation. God Bless them.
Where is she hiding all those guts?
Thanks for the pic. She has the clear eyed stare of a woman who knows she is right and is not afraid to act on it. Wonderful, wonderful. Thank God this nation is still capable of producing people like this.
Just goes to show ya how corrupt and utterly stupid this president and his associates are.
May your house be visited by Da.
Give me a break....she’s a hottie and a hero. Should we not acknowledge that?
Have you seen the videos?
The ACORN workers are illiterate goons.
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think the story line is being misrepresented somewhat.
They did not pose as pimp & prostitute. But as a prostitute fleeing an abusive pimp and wanting to set up her own operations. The O’Keefe character was a friend in law school trying to help and considering a career in politics.
The promotional pictures of him in the “pimp garb” was not what was worn during the stings. That is why their story was convincing and not cartoonish. But, it does confuse the story line in the media.
At least from watching the videos and listening to their interviews, that’s the impression I got.
Any corrections?
They are about to take down one of the world’s major corrupt organizations for a $1300 investment. I applaud their efficiency!
that Pimp outfit looks EXACTLY like a bad Halloween Costume that my Sales Manager wore to an office party a few years ago...
