[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?

Liberal media: this would be news if you could show that no Republican ever killed anybody.

or

This abused woman’s case shows the need for more social programs, more taxes, bigger government to make sure this never happens again.

Apparently this lady grew tired of singing alone in the shower.

Hard to believe she’s saying these things to total strangers.

This truly is amazing. I hope they have dozens of these coming out. They were/are incredibly brave in doing this.

The MSM lib newsmedia is ignoring this because:

Obama IS ACORN.

Well, at least when you're hating other things, you DO have the hippies around for therapeutic punching.

Is this it? Or is there more?

Go to the Big Government link posted above and read what Hannah writes it item #4.

Sounds to me like there are more.

I doubt this crowd worries about much of anything...they are covered ... speshul
They have not an inkling that anything has happened at all unless they peruse center-right sources and sites. MSM does no service to their clients by keeping them in the dark.

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

It's not as simplistic as "blame the victim". Many victims are victims for a REASON. No, they may not be to blame for a particular incident, but they frequently have set themselves up for it.

Drug dealers mostly kill other drug dealers. Gang members mostly kill other gang members.

Of course there are innocent exceptions, but that doesn't eliminate the fact that the majority of many crimes are lifestyle and choice related.

Good grief. Where did ACORN come up with all these people?

I believe the employee pool is known as "the dregs of humanity."

BINGO!! Pray for Beck and his staff's security. Many surrounding Klintoon and his staff met with unfortunate circumstances.

A couple lessons:

1. Beck recently survived an all-out attack to get him thrown off the air. It appears that if you survive something like this, somehow it makes you stronger and less likely to succumb to the next attack; ergo his current position to launch all-out attacks of his own (and I approve).

2. Our system is so conventional, corrupt, pliant & approval-seeking that it required a 20 and 25-year-old in order to go “get the goods” on the opposition. Uber uber kudos to their guts & creativity, but how did we come to this point...?

BOR is probably passing peach pits watching Beck get his audience he’s afraid for his spot...BOR has moved left to try and capture that audience because he is losing conservatives.
