[Heads-Up to Glenn Beck's Big Scoop] ACORN Organizer: "I killed him . . . I shot him.”
The Weekly Standard ^ | September 15, 2009 | John McCormack

Posted on 09/15/2009 1:17:59 PM PDT by Zakeet

The fourth installment of James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles's undercover report on ACORN is supposed to drop within the hour at BigGovernment.com and will be aired on Glenn Beck at 5:00 p.m. This time the duo took their sting operation to California, where an employee named Theresa confesses that she killed her allegedly abusive husband, and laid some "groundwork" beforehand. Beck aired portions of the video on his radio show today, and Leslie Sherman of The D.C. Writeup wrote it up:

10:54am: As the audio continues, James divulges his aspirations to run for an elected office someday. In enthusiastic response, Theresa says she speaks with Congressman and Senators every day. She names Senator Barbara Boxer and Senator McCleod, and 62nd district Assemblywoman Wilmer Amina Carter. Theresa says that “Eden’s” prostitution money would be an asset to him in his quest to become a Senator or Representative.

11:01am: Regarding the legislators that she speaks with, Theresa says that they (most likely herself and their ACORN office) are lobbying these law makers in behalf of health care reform. Apparently, this “non-partisan” organization that gets government money for housing assistance is using tax dollars for health care lobbying.

11:15am: Theresa discloses that her ex-husband abused her and “beat the hell out of” her. She then continues to confess, “I killed him . . . . I shot him.” She notes that she had laid some “groundwork” beforehand. When James and Hannah question her as to whether he was abusing her when she killed him, she says that he was not at that moment, but she knew he was going to, she said, “I knew it was coming.”

Should be an interesting video. Will the mainstream media cover the ACORN story now?

Same place Obama came from...a shady world of con artists, thugs, and race hustlers operating on the porous border between politics and crime.

Oh, the DNC.

We’ll have to watch closely on the “defunded” part.
I know these people, and they’ll figure out how to reform and then get their hands on our money again.

Who heard of ACORN before, say, 2004?
They were getting money before then, I assure you, and none of us knew.

In my family, going back as far as I can, I can’t find anyone who has ever been killed. No one in my family has ever been shot or stabbed. No one in my family has ever gone to jail.

Count your blessings.
I have been shot.
I have been stabbed.
I have an uncle that died in prison.
Some of my uncles have been in jail at one time in their life for one thing or another.

But most of my family are all right.

P.S. - I haven't been in jail since I had a bench warrant issued for forgetting to pay a ticket in 1989.

They hired the dumbest, most compliant stooges they could find. Much easier to control dimwits than smart, free thinking people.

If this was a white, middle aged, man, the legislature would be concocting new gun laws right now. Sadly, there is no sarc tag to go behind that.

But if you are black, you get a pass.

Start the revolution......the time has come! (I am watching as Rep Wilson is being excoriated by the house!.....screw these corrupt people)

I think ACORN should not only be investigated but it needs to be disbanded. How? Revoke their 501c3 Tax Status.

I won’t be home in time to catch it here in Texas (4:00 p.m. CDT), so, I hope O’Reilly or Hannity or both run it tonight on their shows. If not, I know Greta will.

The path you choose to follow carries consequences.

"Blame the victim" explanations aren't always applicable. Sometimes trouble finds the innocent. I read something about that in Job.

“Have to wonder how many ACORN employees are WORRIED that they are going to be exposed.....”

I doubt this crowd “worries” about much of anything...they are ‘covered’....”speshul”

Have any of you cola swilling frito munchers seen the show yet? Shouldn’t it be 5.00PM on the Eastern seaboard by now? What’s the scoop, fellow standers-by? Is this it? Or is there more?

They treat this so "matter-of-fact".

Exactly! As if these were just run-of-the-mill questions that come up all the time!

Never tell an unfamiliar pimp that you committed murder.

In a country that was not (alomost) totally corrupt - these brave undercover investigator journalists would be heroes and get award like Pulitzer Prize. The Pulitzer is reserved for leftist stooges.

Obama IS ACORN! SEIU is ACORN.
