One day after two ACORN officials in Baltimore were fired for offering to help a man and woman posing as a pimp and prostitute to engage in child prostitution and a series of tax crimes, another secretly shot videotape has surfaced that shows the same couple getting similar advice from ACORN officers in Washington.
The newly released videotape, shot on July 25, shows ACORN staffers explaining to the pair how they can hide the woman's professed work — prostitution — and get a loan that will help them establish a brothel.
James O'Keefe, a 25-year-old independent filmmaker, posed as the pimp while visiting the ACORN office, accompanied by 20-year-old Hannah Giles, who posed as the prostitute. On a videotape provided to FOXNews.com, they are seen receiving guidance to establish the woman as the sole proprietor of a bogus company to mask the nature of her business.
"She's not going to put on (the loan application) that she's doing prostitution ... she doesn't have to," the ACORN staffer says. "You don't have to sit back and tell people what you do."
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.
"[W]hen the police ask you, (tell them) you don't know where (the money is) coming from," the staffer said. "We are looking out for you."

Is the young woman who filmed these exposes the same one who was doing a similar thing with Planned Parenthood?
Fish rots from the head down, no?
Actually, the whole thing rots at the same rate. Hey, you asked.
Here is my wishful thinking. The gals that got fired start spilling their guts. Others in Acorn nervous that they are going to take a hit, start spilling their guts. And now for the real wishful thinking. The MSM starting to see things coming apart on their covering Obama’s tail all the time, and listening to Beck tell them they are despicable decide it is time to do their jobs and not just follow their iideology.
Ahhh, fantasy, a great past time.
Seems to me that we should reward these two for their service to the country. She drained her savings to do this.
Maybe Beck could set up a place to donate. I sure would pony up some dollars.
Perfect!
Would not at all surprise me if we saw a steady drip, drip, drip of these sorts of outrageous scams on the part of ACORN.
Has Odumbo thrown his former bosses at ACORN under the bus yet?
I’m thinking 911 on a Friday wasn’t a good day to release part two...
That would be the “pimp”, O’Keefe.
It was his exposes on Planned Parenthood, which made Hannah Giles, the “hooker”, to seek O’Keefe for aid.
“We are looking out for you.”
Bill O’Reilly will have a field day with that one.
They "ALLEGEDLY" have it on their site.
CALL/EMAIL your reps to CUT ALL FUNDING to ACORN!
I did already, and used some choice language too.
Hannah is pretty young, so her bank account probably was not too big to start with. LOL. But God bless her.
Megyn Kelly made it sound like something big was coming in the next week.....big to me meaning disclosures of corruption at the top.
I already called my reps office. They were unaware of the 2nd tape.
“They go to every possible length to attack the video and the people who made it, and give every benefit of the doubt to ACORN.”
Oh yes, I agree with you that CNN will spin this in a lib manner...but whatever they say it is just so hard to defend these slobs when the video is shown.
It is interesting and pathetic that it takes internet and Fox to cover stories and finally organizations like CNN are almost forced to report the story. I don’t think the Keith and Rachel show (MSNBC) will ever cover it, unless they have the poor ACORN worker on as victim-heros. GAG.
ACORN can discount two incompetent boobs- but now there is another office doing the same thing?????
One in MD, one in DC... (I hope another one in VA).
If more than one state, could RICO apply to this criminal enterprise?
So is this from a different ACORN office from yesterday? If so that is excellent news, because now ACORN doesn’t know how many other videos are out there from differnt places.
After the first tape came out, Greta said that, shocking as it was, she didn't find any evidence of a crime having been committed.
Her guest said, "What about conspiracy to evade taxes?"
She said that there was no conspiring done and there was no illegal activity suggested.
Well, now we have ACORN saying "Lie to the police (I think this is a crime) and we've got your back."
That sounds like a conspiracy to me. Maybe one of our legal eagles can confirm.
Hmmm...another “smear attempt”? And I thought ACORN said that all their other undercover attempts at other offices FAILED.
