Folks, please pass this around! This is huge and no one is talking…No one but Glenn Beck…
Baltimore MD–
A couple, man and woman, walk into a room…this isn’t a joke. They are posing as a pimp and a prostitute.
The woman is a prostitute, and lives on a houseboat and goes to ACORN for help.
They go to ACORN to help them buy a prostitution house.
Glenn Beck is reporting that the couple went to an–what I can only assume is ACORN Housing Corporation– for help.
The woman from ACORN said she would look for the tax code for her…profession…to see if there’s a way to get around some taxes…And then looks for another profession to call herself…
ACORN: “Whatever you do, be proud of it.”
Later on:
The Man: “Is there any way around [taxes].”
ACORN: “Yeah, don’t file.”
Now, folks, check back often…

UPDATE: Here are some raw facts.
According to FoxNews:
Man post as 25 year old pimp, woman as 20 year old prostitute.
“The couple told ACORN staffers they wanted to secure housing where the woman could continue to maintain a prostitution business.”
Why start a prostitution ring? To pay for the Man’s congressional campaign…Now, that may sound crazy to you…but not to many congresspeople…
Scott Levenson, ACORN Spokesperson: “The portrayal is false and defamatory and an attempt at gotcha journalism. This film crew tried to pull this sham at other offices and failed. ACORN wants to see the full video before commenting further.”
According to FoxNews:
“The “pimp” later says that he and “Kenya” plan to bring up to 13 “very young” girls from El Salvador to work as prostitutes. Although an ACORN staffer points out their plans are illegal, she also suggests that the girls can be claimed as dependents.
Folks, young girls! ACORN offers to help them…
ACORN: “You could always claim them as dependents…”

UPDATE: FoxNews: “Later, when the “pimp” asks what would happen if the organization is somehow connected to the scheme, the ACORN staffer replies, “First of all, it’s not gonna damage us because we not gonna know. And with your girls, you tell them, ‘Be careful.’ Train them to keep their mouth shut.”

So, not only did the NYTimes screw up an excellent story, they screwed up the excellent story…
Why they decided to leave the ACORN story to bloggers like me is beyond me, but, why they dropped Watergate, is beyond anyone’s imagination.
According to Robert Smith, FBI Director L. Patrick Gray told him about the break-in, “including the culpability of the former attorney general, John Mitchell, and hinted at White House involvement.”
Smith returned to the Times and repeated what he had heard, on a tape recorder, to editor Robert Phelps.
Smith left the NYT and eventually, the memory of the event from the minds of the editors…
This pretty much seals the fate of the New York Times as America’s worst newspaper.
Just as the Watergate story had L. Patrick Gray, the ACORN story had Anita MonCrief…And they blew it on both…Great work…
