    Not a bit. They were an inconsequential pinata yesterday, they still are today. Now everybody's lining up for a whack. Does that make them important?
    No. It just makes them a pinata.
    I don't take issue with denying ACORN money. What I do take issue with is the elevation of triviality to national importance. The importance and relevance of ACORN is mythical. It spreads stupidity.
    My take from the other thread.

    I do wonder what the spin will be. Something like 'ever since we exposed ACORN the FBI has followed us around, including to the senator's office we tried to wiretap'....

    Fox news and talk radio will blame Obama (it is the FBI afterall). they will then refoucs their efforts to paint ACORN as the devil.

    mark my words...

    Maybe he ruined it himself first, without any help from ashbeeigh.
    I'm not taking the blame off of okeef. I am just wondering why ashbeeigh wants someone to go down. Did ashbeeigh know him?

    You wouldn't be pissed at someone who cost you your job in the middle of the worst economic collapse since the 30s?

    Just like I wouldn't take blame away from okeef if he did this, I won't take blame away from ACORN.
    ACORN committed the crimes, correct? They were doing some shady stuff before the pimp crap.

    Would you not be pissed at those who led the organization and allowed the problem to develop rather than at those who exposed it?

    The problem itself was a contrivance of the sting. ACORN didn't propose the scheme to O'Keefe, he propounded it to them and like dummies, some of them went along with it.

    O'Keefe was the pimp.

    You have to admit, though, what he presented was fairly obviously something that you shouldn't do, much like attempting to wiretap a US Senator's office.

    It was unethical and immoral what they did. They gave him advice to keep his illegal functions to operate and then gave him tips on how to be more profitable with govt. money and how not to get caught.

    As Jimmy would say, it's like come on.

    Yep. no problem. And I think I outlined pretty well in that thread why I worked for them and all that jazz. So if there are any questions you (or anyone here) can ask.

    Oh well, at least both sides will have lost, I think.

    Then again, ACORN is a rallying cry for the zombie left as much as this will be for the zombie right.

    Intent will be the defense, of course. Why, we intended to show corruption. Ergo, what we did is not wrong.
