Two undercover videographers released another videotape Wednesday of their interaction with an ACORN worker, contending that it reveals help they received from the community group's Philadelphia office when they posed as a pimp and a prostitute seeking a home.
Unlike previous videotapes, the heavily edited footage includes audio of the two conservatives but none of the ACORN Housing Corp. worker's responses to their questions.
But James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles said the tape rebuts statements by an ACORN official that a worker from its housing affiliate, Katherine Conway-Russell, had quickly kicked them out. "ACORN has lied every step of the way," said Andrew Breitbart, whose conservative Web site, Big Government, has featured the pair's videos from other cities. ...
ACORN and its affiliates also face several federal investigations, accusations of voter registration fraud and an indictment on charges of violating election law in Nevada, all of which stem from previous unrelated incidents. The Louisiana attorney general is investigating an embezzlement a decade ago that was allegedly covered up by the group's founder.
But the videos and the political outrage they generated have left the organization in crisis.

I would NOT hit that...not on a dare.
I’m pretty sure no man would. That’s why she’s a lesbian.
Not even repeatedly with a 2x4?
she’s a Madcow,not a Maddow.
2x4....yeppers!
Who’s the dude in the photo? /sarc
I would hit it - with a car door.
MSNBC and Media Matters are crapping their pants right now.
I’ll throw in Man-cow
Number 2 story on WashPost. If it makes the first three pages tomorrow morning (being generous), we might be witnessing one news organization that has learned its lesson, or at least recognizes a threat to their credibility when the see one.
“the heavily edited footage includes audio of the two conservatives but none of the ACORN Housing Corp. worker’s responses to their questions”
That’s only true of the current 8 minute overview.
It’s clear that the pair have 26 minutes of video and audio, with another 6 minutes of audio only, after the battery power diminished.
The ACORN folks know they are caught in the lie.
The young couple exposing the fraud are withholding the audio while the ACORN suit against them goes forward.
The couple can use the audio as either evidence or leverage.
“It’s clear that the pair have 26 minutes of video and audio”
Has anyone found a link to it? They say twice in the video that its available for viewing - but I haven’t found it at their web site, or at their you tube channel. I posted there twice asking about it - but both posts were deleted.
I hope there’s nothing fishy here - but it sure looks questionable.
You missed the last 2 lines of my post:

Actually, they’re daring ACORN to come out with more lies.
I heard Laz hit it. He was later treated for alcohol poisoning.
Laz is a brave man.
I watched the side-by-side version. Hilarious.
