At today's White House briefing, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs, asked by ABC News about recent government actions taken against ACORN, had a forceful response.
"Obviously the conduct you see on those tapes is completely unacceptable," Gibbs said, raising the issue of videotapes posted online by BigGovernment.com and aired frequently by Fox News Channel that seem to show ACORN employees advising a faux prostitute and faux pimp on how to skirt housing and tax laws. "The administration takes accountability extremely seriously."

I guess it’s too much to ask to conform that ACORN acted “stupidly”

ACORN Employees' Behavior 'Unacceptable'
Note the subtle insertion of the word "Employees'". He's not ready to throw ACORN under the bus yet.

Ah, yes, I guess that given another chance, the ACORN employees would have “calibrated their words” better...
