If they had friends on either coast, borrowing a car from them could be one way to pull this off cheaply,since all these offices were drivable distances from each other. Then all they had to worry about would be 2 roundtrips to either coast. A savvy kid could book those at a deep discount online.
Even car rentals can be found at a bargain if they couldn't borrow wheels. It's amazing what you can do when you're young and fearless. (Heck, I once lived for 6 months in Arizona on less than 3 grand-granted that was many moons ago, but-shoestring living can be done.)
I'm betting that they had plenty of trustworthy friends assisting them in any way they could with goods or cash, discount travel cards, whatever-no sin in that. The 13 or 14 hundred was they actual cash outlay, I think. It's still brilliant.

I've heard absolutely no mention of their politics and it is unfair to call them by any other term than what they truly are "investigative journalists". And most professional ones at that.
I hope they have been well paid by this point. Capitalism Is Good.
Hannah is hot, but don't tell Mrs. Altair I wrote that.
The San Diego vid was done on August 18.
You can fly coast to coast for a few hundred bucks. Southwest has some great fares. You can get a car for a couple hundred bucks for the week, easy. 80 bucks a night for a halfway decent hotel. Food on the cheap, etc. I can see $1,300.00 covering it.
I suspected all these vids were done prior to the first one being released. Otherwise, ACORN would have spread the word immediately and there wouldn’t have been a second one.
"I am for socialism, disarmament, and ultimately, for abolishing the state itself... I seek social ownership of property, the abolition of the properties class, and sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal. I don't regret being part of the communist tactic. I knew what I was doing. I was not an innocent liberal. I wanted what the communists wanted, and I traveled the United Front road to get it.”
Roger Baldwin (a co-founder of the ACLU)
Proof that the ACLU is a communist front group.
>>I don’t think they have shown all of their cards yet.<<
More importantly, barry and ACORN almost CERTAINLY fear that they have not shown all their cards yet.
Imagine you’ve been surfing p@ron on your computer for years, and someone from HR mentions that the security department noticed, in the logs, some bad activity on your computer the last few days and they are investigating.
Would that increase your stress at all.
For me, that is the best part of this. That is, they may implode/explode in ways never anticipated, even if the MSM would have eventually lost interest. Just as the Watergate investigation into Nixon was not about the break in, for Obama this may not be about the tapes. The tapes may merely be the catalyst to bring us to other fruitful endeavors.
This thing is in the second inning.
It would be legally impossible if not difficult to prove any defrauding of you or a group of people by the MSM...There is really no money being lost by you or others in that regard...The MSM is basically a known co-conspirator to liberal statist elected officials and their agenda...They are only the mouthpieces...The fraud is more accurately portrayed by the elected officials they support...
So a class-action lawsuit would not go very far...
Dereliction of duty??? What official duty is the MSM charged with???
They have already proven their position (they are not honest)...So the best thing to do is take them out of your personal life...Make them and their opinions vacant in your lives...They are private industry, they make money off of patronage and advertising...
I barely tolerate FoxNews...I believe they ar doing a great job now, because a lot of people are “starting” to pay attention to the issues, and they know they have to deliver to the audience...
I have not watched a major network evening news program in 25 years...It is a waste of my time, and everyone’s intelligence to sit and listen to that garbage...
People like us are a lot smarter than that, and we already know what they are all about...They will most likely not change, so I don’t care if they fail tomorrow and all their employees are on the street...
Our job now is to take the fight into the polls when they are open...Mot states are going to have local elections later this year...Take it to them...Start sending that preliminary message that November 2010 is right around the corner...And that their days are numbered...
We need to stay focused, and ready to neuter the government and its representation at every opportunity...
Otherwise...(I’ll let y’alls immagination run wild here...hehehe)
I’m sorry, but O’keefe STILL looks like someone ready for a costume shindig! Anyone who buys him as a pimp is just, well, DUMB!!
I saw him on Beck’s show and he calls himself a “conservative activist”. He should drop that and call himself a journalist, which is what he truly is. He is doing the job the lamestream medjia refuses to do.
No matter how small you make the font...
hehehe
Me, too. Start out small and build to a crescendo.
They might have used their own car and driven cross country ..could have even slept in the car.
Anyone notice that Juan said he was a lawyer??
This tape is the “National city” tape. Acorn claimed that they were turned away in National City.
They are not stopping. What gave you that idea? They have more tapes to release.
Anyone wanna bet they have a video from Chicago ACORN and are waiting to release it?
They have implied they have 27 videos total. I don’t know why people keep saying they are done, they have said another one to be released in a few days.
Glenn Beck said that the Next Revelation is tomorrow
You are right. ACORN is dumber than I though
bump!
