Housing hustlers: 'Pimp' & 'hooker' expose ACORN's lawlessness

THE radical activist group ACORN is the E.F. Hutton of prostitution. It stands ready to provide discreet advice on setting up a brothel and engaging in other associated acts of criminality. When ACORN talks, pimps and hookers listen.

This has been established by an audacious video-sting operation undertaken by guerrilla conservative documentarian James O'Keefe, 25, and his sidekick Hannah Giles, 20. O'Keefe posed as a pimp and Giles as a prostitute seeking help getting a mortgage for a brothel. In cities around the country, workers for ACORN -- the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now -- happily obliged.

It’s time that ACORN gets the credit it deserves by revealing the Obama/ACORN relationship!

It's as if the government contracted with a right-wing militia to conduct gun-safety courses.

So, what's the problem with that?

They do know what they're talking about!

[HIDEK6]

I wonder if he dressed that way during the sting.

Looks a little "theatrical."

"Officer, I was just minding my business, doing my job to pay for my new ACORN Mortgage"

I think he did! MY HEROES!

On hannity’s show last night she said that another tape is coming out today that would be devastating!

[Ann Archy]

And she hinted there are more!!!

This is turning into James' & Hanna's Great American Adventure.

They do look a bit theatrical which makes it even funnier. On the video I've seen that's how they looked. O’Keefe as the pimp looks hilarious but the good folks at ACORN bought it anyway. Wouldn't want to pass up on a chance to scam the US Gov, (make that taxpayers).

I suspect ACORN has been guilty of hundreds of illegal actions over the years. They’ve been able to get away with it this long because they’ve managed to stay under the radar and had the cloaking benefits provided by having friends in high places. No telling how many elections across the nation have been literally stolen by these people, or how much they’ve siphoned from the public coffers over the years.

Hopefully the first rays of light have been directed into the abyss that ACORN has been for years and years. Maybe these few rays will reveal enough of interest to bring in the bigger lights!

If ACORN hits the skids, count on the Dhimmis finding some new flunkies to do their dirty work for them.

Reminds me of the time when I was in college back in the 60s and we wanted to go across the river to the strip clubs.

You had to be 21 then, and it was in the days when men dressed to go out.

I wore white pants, a blazer and an ASCOT of all things. My buddy wore a blazer with a white turtleneck and an EYE PATCH!

Of course, all the strip club cared about was the money, so we got in.

We were flabberghasted at the extremenly high price of beer there.

Beers were a buck each, if you can believe it.

The local watering hole sold a 12 oz draft for 15 cents.

"I wonder if he dressed that way during the sting."

IIRC Hannah had that Fur Coat on in one of the vids, I am guessing that James was "putting on the style" for the photo.
