BREAKING NEWS----Census cutting all ties to ACORN

Fox News

[mockingbyrd]

Breaking News on Fox, the Census Bureau has severed all ties to ACORN. Will not be working with ACORN for the census in 2010.

Thank you James O’Keefe and the woman whose name I don’t know who played the prostitute/madam.

Thank you Glenn Beck

[adorno]

This is great!!! I just wonder what radical organization will replace them.

That's easy: the DNC.

[Fishtalk]

Mark Levin, is that you?

Glen’s been hawking this story all week and he’s devoted almost his whole show to it.

I don’t see anybody saying it’s HIS story...most just giving him credit. If anything, he did bring the most passion, drama and attention to it as most anybody.

But I’m giving him a well-deserved bow. He teased and he titillated and he entertained and he cajoled and complained and he wheedled and he damn well deserves a big chunk of credit.

Instead the Pulitzer Prize will go to Michael Moore for his new anti capitalist movie that likely never mentions the name of a single democrat.

Not Guilty!

Yes, she's gorgeous ... and can't even buy a beer legally, but brings down ACORN. It's the youth of America (with friends in high places) that will turn this country around.

Nothing on there yet...They may be dishing out tranquilizers..

With Glenn Beck and now John Stossel, Fox is going for the jugular! I actually watch some of their programs now.

[sissyjane]

Is that Rahm Emmanuel?

I don't think they want ACORN investigated while they're joined at the hip

They'll morph into another name and the same agenda will just switch drivers

Ace of Spades HQ notes "The Past Tense Media's" role:

This will be yet another story where those reading the MSM only find out about the escalating controversy after a big action has been taken.

Add it to Van Jones, The Edwards Baby, Chas Freeman, etc where the DeadStream Media has to report on a no-longer-ignorable development of a controversy they chose to sweep under the rug to protect the government.

[1951Boomer]

My thoughts exactly. I’m so jaded now that I’ll never believe that the census is not totally corrupted under the Dems.

[Americanwolf]

my beeber has been stunned....and my sister was bit by a moose!

seriously though good start.

[Fishtalk]

I’ll snifter clink your sentiment.

[maine-iac7]

Get this and the videos 0f him with ACORN cached - I'm amazed they haven't already scrubbed these -

I don't know how many times I posted/emailed this photo during the campaign last year - no one was interested.

[Califreak]

No, it’s Tim Curry as Frank N. Furter(aka the Sweet Transvestite) in the movie “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”.

He’s a dead ringer though.

: )

The Baltimore adventure with ACORN started off as a silly idea, both absurd and incredible by all accounts. But it stuck, and quickly escalated into a full blown operation with scripts, method acting, undercover gear, scandalous outfits, fast minds, good hearts, plenty of humor and healthy homemade blueberry muffins. When I pitched the “prostitute goes into ACORN seeking housing” idea to James O’Keefe at the beginning of the summer, I had absolutely no idea how he would respond. He came back with, “Would you be willing to portray the prostitute? And if so, when can you do this?” --Hannah Giles

I think it is time for a major investigative reporting effort be conducted regarding the mainstream media.

[bustinchops]

I pray you’re right.

I used to be an optimist like you, but time and defeat by corruption has proven optimism to be a naive condition. I’m not quite ready to call it an ‘affliction’........yet.

[leilani]

I’m not Mark Levin - I don’t listen to him either. But you could have fooled me that Beck isn’t taking credit for a story that isn’t his. It seems like all of his viewers here are sure claiming that he broke it.
