ACORN Prostitution Scam Moves to Brooklyn
Big Government/The Lid ^ | 9/14/09 | The Lid

Posted on 09/14/2009 4:18:47 AM PDT by Shellybenoit

Now, I guess, we know what a community organizer does, because today we learned, an ACORN Brothel Grows in Brooklyn.

When we last saw our fake pimp and hooker, they were in our nation's capitol trying to find out how ACORN would deal with people looking for a home mortgage so they can open open up a brothel using under-aged girls.

Now scandal surrounding Jerrold Nadler's favorite activist organization ACORN has spread to New York, with employees at its Brooklyn office were caught on video helping supposed ladies of the night get loans for their dream houses of ill repute.

Rather than reminding the women that prostitution is dangerous and illegal and advising them to change their careers, or trying to save those 13 year-old girls supposedly being brought up from El Salvador, ACORN counselors offered suggestions on how they can launder their earnings.

"Honesty is not going to get you the house," a loan counselor at the offices told two activists posing as a mortgage-seeking pimp and prostitute.

"You can't say what you do for a living." Below are two videos showing the visit to the Brooklyn Acorn.

wait.. was this NEW video made AFTER ACORN made the comment about the first one?

The fired ACORN employees should SUE for being fired for doing exactly what ACORN tod them to do

THAT would be the ultimate- expose ACORN itself as the source

It’s my understanding that the videos were made over the course of several weeks and that they’re slowly being made public.

ACORN is releasing statements before they know everything that is out there. I suspect we’re going to see a lot more that contradicts what they’ve said thus far.

The first was in Baltimore, so far two more.
This after they threatened to SUE the filmakers for the first two. Criminals. There are probably more.

1. Baltimore, MD
2. Washington, DC
3. Brooklyn, NYC, NY

People like James and Hannah will be the NEW media.

That sound you here is the sound of old dinosaurs like NBC and the New York Times facing extinction.

From the last interview with this couple, it was obvious from their vague answers that they had more video of other locations of ACORN agreeing to go along with the scam. I'm sure that there are more videos for future viewing.

The couple have been working on this sting for a while. Fortunately they realized that just one or two location offices would not be enough evidence of blatent corruption.

Good work!

What cracks me up about this is the way they were dressed.

Workers don’t blink an eye. Imagine the clients that must walk through their offices.

Now Congress need to investigate all of those mortgages.

Over the top. I saw one of O'Keefe in a fur coat, "pimp hat" and bell bottoms. I bet he was wearing platform shoes too. LOL

Seriously, the more they release, the stupider ACORN seems.

I'm buying my wife a pair of earrings just like Hannah's, not to make her look "hot" like Hannah, but to make her look like a real Patriot!

“wait.. was this NEW video made AFTER ACORN made the comment about the first one?”

No, they did them both before they released the first. Then ACORN said “They tried this and were kicked out everywhere else”. THEN they released the second one.

I am most astonished at the sheer stupidity of the ACORN workers. None of them have batted an eye at the outrageous garb or the outrageous story. You’d think they’d be more street-smart and more able to spot a con than that.

And I don’t know how Hannah and James managed to keep their faces straight. The whole scene is so over the top.

The real message behind these vids is the facile and easy manner in which the Acorn workers offer their assistance. It's like people come in everyday asking for help starting a brothel. You'd think one of these folks would say "You want help doing WHAT??!! Let me talk to my supervisor." But no. They not only don't react that way, they produce a plan and provide how tos on responding to questions in a way that doesn't reveal the nature of the business.

An objective person would have to say that these Acorn workers have had much experience in facillitating criminal enterprises.

What Patriots! Whooo, hooo!

Can’t wait to see how Gibbsy responds to presser questions, ROFLMAO! So much for spending the time spinning the de facto President’s ‘soaring oratory.’ When they finish Acorn questions, maybe they can follow up with WH comments about the DC Tea Party.

White House staff resignations [if they’re smart] in 5...4...3...

Imagine that.....

Who would have thought that ACORN was corrupt? They have a rule book on what to do and they are all following the pattern. I feel really bad for these workers. They are given compensation to take care of their own families, but they are told to do unlawful things.

I do hope that these employees take down the people at the top and they are spared. This is horrendous!

So I guess ACORN's response to the first episode in Baltimore (you remember, this is an isolated incident that in no way represents our organization...) has been sort of devastated. LOL.

No, it was made before ACORN ever even knew there was tapes being made.

They made them ALL, and are releasing them one by one.

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/mar/20/conyers-suggests-probe-of-acorn/

Rep. Jerrold Nadler, New York Democrat and chairman of the Judiciary subcommittee on the Constitution, civil rights and civil liberties that hosted Thursday’s hearing, suggested there was not enough “credible evidence” to warrant a hearing focused exclusively on ACORN.

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/apr/01/conyers-weighing-probe-of-acorn/

Rep. Jerrold Nadler, New York Democrat and chairman of the Judiciary subcommittee with the jurisdiction to conduct the hearing, said he does not think Congress is the place to hear criminal charges.

“It’s not our business to say ACORN is terrible or ACORN is wonderful. That’s not a congressional job,” Mr. Nadler said. “The evidence - I’ve listened to it - I think most of it is nonsense. If it’s true, it’s a law enforcement matter.”

However, he said he would bow to Mr. Conyers’ request for a hearing. Mr. Conyers said he hasn’t “pushed him yet.”

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/jun/25/conyers-abandons-plan-probe-acorn/

Mr. Conyers, Michigan Democrat, earlier bucked his party leaders by calling for hearings on accusations the Association of Community Organization for Reform Now (ACORN) has committed crimes ranging from voter fraud to a mob-style “protection” racket.

“The powers that be decided against it,” Mr. Conyers told The Washington Times.
