Just thought I would let you all know that ACORN got busted for housing a so called prostitute with our tax dollars along with a bunch of 13 year old girls that were also going to be prostitutes. I know most of you don't know about this because you don't watch FOXNEWS and those liberal main stream media stations would never play it because it might make Obama look a little shady. If you want the truth....watch FOX, that is becoming obvious these days.

I've seen it. The stupidity of those two woman is off the charts. They will get what is coming to them.
I don't like Obama's policies, but tying what a couple of would be criminals do at a local level to Obama being "shady" is ridiculous.
It is that type of right wing wacko talk show garbage that undermines a good argument about legitimate problems people have with his policies.
I mean those town hall soundbites are embarrassing. Really? His handlers had the foresight to forge his birth certificate and plant birth announcement stories in the local HI papers to hatch a plot 40 years later to put a foreigner in the White House?
I heard about in first on my local radio station here in DC then saw it tv news other than Fox News which I also at times watch. Nice assumption that if you don't watch FN this story wouldn't be heard and the truth wouldn't be told. I posted a thread about slavery in America which includes an aspect of prostitution and on this occasion it happens to be an organization called Acorn.
Hopefully they'll prosecuted to the fullest and if you really cared about this story instead of painting the picture you want, at the very least post a written link to be you know Fair and Balanced.

ACORN has all the appearance of a criminal racket.This is a graphic appearance,Incredibly strong evidence,but it's at the end of a list going back years and years. It;s a good thing that the Census is cutting it's ties with ACORN,but what worries me is the Stimulus package has millions of dollars in it and there's loop holes in it which would allow it to end up in the hands Of ACORN.
Also I have to agree with the op on Fox to an extent becuase it's stories like these that you wont see on the major networks like ABC.NBC,CBS.MSNBC,ect. Because Obama was ACORN's lawyer for a period of time and they all support him
i don't really watch much faux news, but i have read some books. does that count?
If it's so ridiculous then how come your liberal news stations won't talk about it?
What were the chances you actually believed in that Birth Certificate story? Apparently 100%.
(And just to be clear they are not "my" news stations). :P
That’s a silly argument. No news network is a 100% credible these days. It’s a shame. Because if all of them are jaded, who’s out there truly helping Americans stay informed?
They are like instigators on the playground. They stir up shit and step away and snicker while a fight breaks out.
I will go as far to say they hurt America more than help it.
Totally agree with that. What passes for 'news' these days is disgraceful. :evil:
blah blah blah
dude what does a birth certificate story have to do with anything i said....
I really don't care here Obama was born nor do I disagree with all of his politics. I was just pointing out that the liberal news media has people brainwashed and obviously you are one of them because you refuse to see the truth when it is told. It's pretty easy to see when one station will report it and msnbc and many others won't...keep living with the blinders on, I really don't care.
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
yeah yeah the truth, death panels, obama born out of the country, obama giving health care to ilegal aliens, bush legitimately winning the 2000 election, saddam was responsible for 9/11 and he had weapons of mass destruction, all of this was reported by fox, and these positions were most ardently defended by fox and i guess the fact that all of these turned out to be bullshit at best, and outright lies at worst makes no difference to you. if i want the truth i am damn sure not going to look for it on fow news. by the way this story is irrelevent and is serving as yet ANOTHER DISTRACTION from the important issues of our time. you are being brainwashed and you don't even realize it. instead you come on this board and project onto the rest of us. if it was worthy of coverage on other networks it would be covered. i guess if you want to hear about it you can listen to fat rush and watch faux news for your exclusinve coverage of this breaking story...
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
Are you blah, blah, blah, and quoting yourself.........
whatever dude.....flat out there is no denying that foxnews simply reveals more news than Obamanews stations...you can all say whatever you want but it's right there clear as day and now everyone can see that. The saddest part about the whole thing is that people are still trying to defend it.......Face it man...back in the day news stations would have been hitting and biting to be the first on this story and now you have liberal news trying to protect these stories from getting out and people like you defend that. sad sad sad. sure is a different world we live in.
Although I probably should've worded that part better about "if you want the truth" I know FOX isn't all true, that's so obvious I didn't think it needed to be clarified but i guess it does. The fact is that when FOX does come up with a good story you all still try to trash it....blends in well with the MOST UNBIPARTISAN GOVERNMENT ever in history!
But Joe Wilson calling out Obama obviously is more relevant than a corrupt organization using millions of dollars provided by tax payers to do whatever they please like commit voter fraud is ???
Fox news never claimed that Saddam was responsible for 911,but even the Dems thought he had WMD's and most of them supported us going into Iraq.

So all of ACORN's 400,000 members are to blame? It was just two part-time workers who were busted, and they were immediately fired by ACORN.
This is the same problem that Acorn had with voter registration. All it takes is a couple cooky assholes to register "Mickey Mouse" or "Donald Duck" to tarnish the hard work that so many others put in. Here, a couple of part time employees get involved with prostitution and all of a sudden Acorn is terrible again.
I had to do some investigations into Acorn when the voter registration scandal was blowing up last year and I can assure you that Acorn is legit. Are there some bad apples? Yes. Are there some lazy registrars who just fill out the forms, turn them in, collect a check and then let the local election authority determine what is legit? Yes. While voter registration forms were filled out, they would never make it through a local election authorities office. Never.
If we're going to use your argument that a few bad apples can tarnish a whole organization, are you willing to say the U.S. military and Embassy in Afghanistan is tarnished because of the actions that have been going on at the Afghanistan?

And I have MSNBC on at work most of the day, and I've seen it on there...
Just because you don't see it on another network, doesn't mean it wasn't there...

Hail, Hail!!!
I think you hit the nail on the head here.
Baltimore
Washington
and now I heard in NYC(I haven't seen this one yet)
I thought Acorn said that it was an isolated incident and that the filmakers are just trying to smear the organization. Honestly, 1 office does it it could be those people, a 2nd place has the same problem you can chalk it up to coincidence but now a 3rd tape is released of another office. Sorry this seems to me like its a Standard Work Practice and not some rogue employees. There is something very wrong with Acorn and they need to be investigated period. This group gets a lot of tax money and they need to be held accountable for what they are doing.
"“The portrayal is false and defamatory and an attempt at ‘gotcha journalism,’” said Scott Levenson, a spokesman at ACORN’s national offices, told CNN. “This film crew tried to pull this sham at other offices and failed. ACORN wants to see the full video before commenting further.”

That's how I feel... if there is criminal wrongdoing... investigate and prosecute the offenders. Audit the organization's books and reveal the money trail.
And Fox needs to be responsible, too. If these were 3 out of 3 offices where this practice is going on, then there needs to be a wider investigation. If this is 3 out of 257 offices investigated by FOX News.... they need to make all 257 unedited tapes made available for viewing for a fair and balanced perspective.
Hail, Hail!!!
This thing about illegal immigrants and Wilson hollering lair...
Obama said illegal aren’t covered and people are STILL quoting from the bill saying it’s in there.
WTF?!
Is it or isn’t it?
If these smart people they get to talk on the news can’t read a bill properly, what the hell, let them all say whatever they want!
Jon Stewart needs to bust this one up like he did with the death panel lady. Hehehe!
Oh…and I hate polls. Because you can finagle numbers any way you want them but did you see the new one? Nearly two-thirds — 63 percent — of Americans surveyed by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press believe that news stories are often inaccurate

No prob.
I use that website all the time because i don't trust soundbites on radio or television and i want the read the full text myself, rather than getting an interpreted opinion from some so-called pundit.
...
So, Obama's statement was correct... the Bill specifiaclly states it in the referenced Section. It was nOT a lie, and Rep. Wilson mis-spoke.
however, I have heard and read where the Rush Hannity spokesmen have been touting that there are no specifics on how to enforce this section. Like, it somehow validates Rep. Wilson's accusation.
...
The answers is: That is what the fucking assholes in Congress are supposed to work out!!! It is their fucking JOB to work out the fine details of the Bill... in this case, the regulatory process to dechipher who is qualified to receive Federal credit and who is not. That is what WE pay them to do!!!
So... fucking Joe Wilson needs to read the fucking bill and think about ways we can figure out who gets it and who doesn't. Get to WORK JOE FUCKHEAD WILSON or we will FIRE YOUR SORRY ASS!!!
Hail, Hail!!!
That second fake book is hilarious given the fact that homeschoolers very regularly whip the asses of public and private school students in standardized tests.

one of the biggest tax coruption scandals going on and this is how it's laid out FOX 133 times, CNN 90 times, MSNBC 10 times, ABC 2 times, CBS 1 time, NBC 2 times, NY Times 17 times, Washington Post 10 times, Wall St Journal 5 times. There comes a point where they have to report because when three days pass they start getting called out on it.
