ACORN CEO calls employee actions indefensible, but calls attacks racially motivated.

From ABC News' Jake Tapper

In a press release, ACORN CEO Bertha Lewis says, that as “a result of the indefensible action of a handful of our employees,” the group will immediately stop accepting anyone into ACORN office for service programs, will conduct in-service training of staff, and begin an audit “to review all of the systems and processes called into question by the videos,” to be conducted by the group’s Independent Advisory Council.

Great, at this rate Newsweek will have to have a new cover slogan on their next issue when they cover this scandal.

We're all Racists now.

How long do you think they can use this defense? I figure it is their last line of defense, I don’t think there is anything they can use that is more inflamitory that race. They have been using this since the whole police vs Gates think. How much longer do you suppose it will last?

It’s what the Bible says when a sinner returns back to his sin, is like a dog returning back to it’s vomit and eat it.

This is a resigning issue. That’s all there is to it. She has to go. Then go over every transaction.

Maybe ACORN should stop breaking the law. That could be an issue here, no?

OK, I’ll give it a shot. Anyone with a Rush24/7 can send it on as well. Feel free to use it anywhere anytime, its time to grab this slur and turn it on the slanderers. LOL.

Thanks!

All this shows is that Bertha Lewis is just as sleazy and dishonest as the people on the videotapes. A fish rots from the head.

In other words "We'll teach our employees how not to get caught so easily."

Fools, all.

After all of this Barbara Streisand stuff about the word (and accusations) “racist”... I don’t think the word will ever be the same.

"NEW DEFINITION OF RACISM."

Liberals like to rewrite definitions to suit their own needs. It's reminiscent of their rewrite of the definition of sexual harassment.
