ACORN organizer rips video (California ACORN)
San Bernadino Sun ^ | 9/15/2009 | Andrew Edwards

Posted on 09/15/2009 6:51:12 PM PDT by markomalley

SAN BERNARDINO - The head organizer for California ACORN says a new video that appears to show a staffer at the organization's San Bernardino office is fake journalism.

The video, which was posted shortly before 2 p.m. Tuesday on a Web site called Big Government.com, shows a female ACORN employee talking to a man who claims to be a pimp interested in establishing a brothel where underage immigrant prostitutes would turn tricks in order to raise money for political activity.

The woman, identified on the video as Tresa Kaelke, appears on posted footage to be interested in cooperating the plan. However, California ACORN head organizer Amy Schur said the video is a gross misrepresentation of what actually happened.

"In this video, there are two actors who come into our office and who were messing with us. And our employee was messing with them," Schur said.

She said that the complete and unedited video needs to be released to the public.

Schur said that in a moment not shown on the edited video, Kaelke asked the undercover "pimp" if he was joking and then proceeded to play along with the joke.

Furthermore, Schur said that Kaelke will sign an affidavit stating that she was not seriously entertaining the idea of cooperating with an apparent attempt to establish a house of prostitution.

"She (Kaelke) asked if they were joking and asked if they were reporters. They said they weren't reporters and they aren't. This is not legitimate news," Schur said.

Schur's statements follow comments from ACORN office supervisor Christina Spach, who said Kaelke was afraid of the "pimp" and "prostitute" who broached the prostitution ploy at ACORN's San Bernardino office.

The Big Government.com video identifies the "pimp" as James O'Keefe and the "prostitute" as Hannah Giles. O'Keefe and Giles could not be reached immediately for comment.

So What! so - the off the charts woman is on crack or whatever — it doesn’t matter -— ACORN employs her - pays her a wage - a salary ...

ACORN didn’t screen this woman? - Okay! Never the less - ACORN is responsible for her - and what ever she does or says...

But considering all the others stings in Washington, DC, in Brooklyn, NY, and in Baltimore — now in California — Seems like a TREND to me...

I can’t imagine being trapped anywhere with that woman. Especially after her withdrawal sets in.

Probably would be a previous husband. She said in the video it was some years ago when she was 35. Didn't get that good a look from the vid but she is certainly 50+. This is not something that would have happened last year. More likely it would have been in late 1980’s or early 90’s.

You guys are on a roll! So there really could be or are 2 husbands and one has a restraining order. That’s very interesting. I haven’t watched the entire video yet, but she was hyper as heck.

There was another post from a fellow in SB who said he was approached by 3 people on the feasibility of opening a brothel in SB and he thinks this is the group. Could our actors have brought a 3rd person with them>

If she was truly born year 1948 then in 1983 she would have been 35 yrs old.

“Where on earth can one find such information? Kudos on the detective skills.”

On the internet it’s easy, you just keep hitting every keyword. I also do some opposition research, I’m good at it. But the info I found in this case came from someone at another site.
