EX-ACTLY.
 
Shirking away from this is not an option at all, no way, no how. Anyone who does needs an investigation on their a$$ too. So, everybody put the heat on their seats - call, write, fax - whatever to get on it, NOW.

Yep - as predicted by many others among the threads here. That's no investigation, just stalling and cover. I'll say nope, not gonna work.

Once John Stewart was outraged, you just knew the show was over.

If an (ACORN type) video was about a Christian group, it’d be a major story in every newsroom.-Mike Allen MSNBC

This is going to have a snowball effect.

You can see the beginnings of it when the voted to defund. Democrats voted NO..and then said they wanted to change their vote.

The tidal wave is hitting. And only a few know what is coming...

Political suicide to support Acorn...except in those gerrymandered districts where you can be a tax bum and still not get the book thrown at you.

It is interesting you say that..because I do see more coverage after Stewart was outraged.

It really doesn’t matter.
At this point, ACORN and any brand they try to re-organize under is absolutely radioactive.
Around election time, anyone involved in any way, shape, or form with ACORN or its tentacles will suddenly find the $hit Hawks circling....

Hannah said she felt afraid in that tape..so he may have gotten a heads up. Can’t wait to see what is on it.

I'd love to see a movie about those brave young guerrilla journalists...

They are just shifting to another of their 2-300 groups...so everyone will come out and call for ‘investigation’ of ACORN, knowing nothing will happen....the Radthke’s already have shifted...we are way behind in the game.

I knew it, because people who do not watch Fox will see it one Stewart. And how can they not be outraged?

The MSM did their dardest to keep it under wraps, but in the end they simply look like fools and watch fo rtheir trust numbers to drop from even their present low levels.

""In a press release, ACORN CEO Bertha Lewis says, that as “a result of the indefensible action of a handful of our employees,” the group will immediately stop accepting anyone into ACORN office for service programs, will conduct in-service training of staff, and begin an audit “to review all of the systems and processes called into question by the videos,” to be conducted by the group’s Independent Advisory Council. The Council includes many prominent Democrats, including the man who helped President Obama Transition Team, John Podesta, President and CEO of the Center for American Progress; former Maryland Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend; Andrew Stern, International President of the Service Employees International Union; and former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Henry Cisneros.""

This is the whole problem...Like the cops and city attorney investigating themselves, like congress investigating themselves, or like the AG investigating the government.

The investigations need to be completely independent. It's the only way to find the truth and the extent of the crimes and corruption.

To be fair, that link is about the AUDIT of Brooklyn’s ACORN, ordered by Bertha Lewis of ACORN. An audit that’s really not an audit.

Jerry Brown’s investigation won’t be much better, given that he’s busy running for governor himself.

LOL. Yes, dead give away, since the other “news” outlets are ignoring the story.

Hey, did you ever get through to Casey’s office today?

Re: Jerry Brown/Atty General Calif.

Yes, he is running for Governor. He is of the wrong party but I do think Brown is honest. I know “honest politican” an oxymoron — but I think he’d do a good job on this. We’ll see — may have to eat those words.

Without a doubt!

Democrats are so fond of Special Prosecutors, where are the demands for SP's now?
