		<description><![CDATA[ACORN Housing helped someone get a house...who?...what kind of house?  Click to see all the unsettling updates!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Folks, please pass this around!  This is huge and no one is talking&#8230;No one but Glenn Beck&#8230;</p>
<p>Baltimore MD&#8211;</p>
<p>A couple, man and woman, walk into a room…this isn&#8217;t a joke.  They are posing as a pimp and a prostitute.</p>
<p>The woman is a prostitute, and lives on a houseboat and goes to ACORN for help.</p>
<p>They go to ACORN to help them buy a prostitution house.</p>
<p>Glenn Beck is reporting that the couple went to an&#8211;what I can only assume is <a title="http://www.acornhousing.org/index.php" href="http://www.acornhousing.org/index.php" target="_blank">ACORN Housing Corporatio</a>n&#8211; for help.</p>
<p>The woman from ACORN said she would look for the tax code for her&#8230;profession&#8230;to see if there&#8217;s a way to get around some taxes&#8230;And then looks for another profession to call herself&#8230;</p>
<p>ACORN: &#8220;Whatever you do, be proud of it.&#8221;</p>
<p>Later on:</p>
<p>The Man: &#8220;Is there any way around [taxes].&#8221;</p>
<p>ACORN: &#8220;Yeah, don&#8217;t file.&#8221;</p>
<p>Now, folks, check back often&#8230;</p>
<p>Also, Check out Breitbart&#8217;s new website, BigGovernment.com</p>
<p><a title="http://biggovernment.com/2009/09/10/chaos-for-glory/" href="http://biggovernment.com/2009/09/10/chaos-for-glory/" target="_blank">Read</a>&#8211;BigGovernment.com</p>
<p>UPDATE:  Check out the videos:</p>
<p><object class="embed" width="425" height="350" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/LtTnizEnC1U"><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/LtTnizEnC1U" /><em>You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video</em></object></p>
<p><object class="embed" width="425" height="350" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/TNYU9PamIZk"><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/TNYU9PamIZk" /><em>You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video</em></object></p>
<p>UPDATE:  Here are some raw facts.</p>
<p>According to FoxNews:</p>
<p>Man post as 25 year old pimp, woman as 20 year old prostitute.</p>
<p>&#8220;The couple told ACORN staffers they wanted to secure housing where the woman could continue to maintain a prostitution business.&#8221;</p>
<p>Why start a prostitution ring?  To pay for the Man&#8217;s congressional campaign&#8230;Now, that may sound crazy to you&#8230;but not to many congresspeople&#8230;</p>
<p>Scott Levenson, ACORN Spokesperson: &#8220;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.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to FoxNews:</p>
<p>&#8220;The &#8220;pimp&#8221; later says that he and &#8220;Kenya&#8221; plan to bring up to 13 &#8220;very young&#8221; 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.</p>
<p>Folks, young girls!  ACORN offers to help them&#8230;</p>
<p>ACORN: &#8220;You could always claim them as dependents&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p><a title="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,548827,00.html" href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,548827,00.html" target="_blank">Read</a>&#8211;FoxNews</p>
<p>UPDATE:  FoxNews: &#8220;Later, when the &#8220;pimp&#8221; asks what would happen if the organization is somehow connected to the scheme, the ACORN staffer replies, &#8220;First of all, it&#8217;s not gonna damage us because we not gonna know. And with your girls, you tell them, &#8216;Be careful.&#8217; Train them to keep their mouth shut.&#8221;</p>
<p>SEE MORE UPDATES AFTER THE JUMP&#8230;Including Scott Levinson&#8217;s response!</p>
<p><span id="more-4341"></span></p>
<p>This is shocking, folks.  Where is the mainstream media?  Where is Drudge?  He doesn&#8217;t have this yet.  He is covering the stories that don&#8217;t really matter&#8230;</p>
<p>HERE IS THE FULL TRANSCRIPT:</p>

<p>I&#8217;m working on getting the COMPLETE recording online.  I&#8217;m listening to it now.</p>
<p>UPDATE:  Watching Kelly&#8217;s Court on the Fox morning program&#8230;</p>
<p>Megyn Kelly said there needs to be a congressional investigation.  I COMPLETELY AGREE!!!</p>
<p>Call (202) 224-3121 and let the House of Representatives know that there needs to be an investigation.</p>
<p>The story is <em>finally </em>on Hot Air&#8230;Jesus, took you guys long enough&#8230;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s still not on Drudge, though&#8230;what the hell is his deal?</p>
<p>UPDATE:  September 10, 2009: 6:22 pm Pacific:</p>
<p>Breitbart is reporting that the two ACORN representatives were fired&#8230;</p>
<p><a title="http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9AKORB81&amp;show_article=1" href="http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9AKORB81&amp;show_article=1" target="_blank">Read</a></p>
<p>Also, Drudge <em>finally</em> put something up&#8230;Matt, took you long enough&#8230;</p>
<p><a title="http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/10/acorn.prostitution/index.html" href="http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/10/acorn.prostitution/index.html" target="_blank">Finally CNN has this story&#8230;</a></p>
<p>UPDATE: September 11, 2009:</p>
<p>Folks, is is unprecedented.  BigGovernment.com is reporting that this is not an isolated incident!  The same people drove down to Washington, D.C. and did the same thing!</p>
<p>Here are the videos:</p>
<p><object class="embed" width="425" height="350" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/cWRTYD26Kxc&amp;feature"><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/cWRTYD26Kxc&amp;feature" /><em>You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video</em></object></p>

<p>UPDATE:  September 14, 2009:</p>
<p>BigGovernment is reporting that it happened in New York.</p>
<p>From Big Government:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px;"><em>Alinsky Rule #10, “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure that results in the reactions from the opposition that are essential for the success of the campaign.”</em></p>
<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px;">Bring it on.</p>
</blockquote>
<p><object class="embed" width="425" height="350" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/mrpRGZq7Z-U"><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/mrpRGZq7Z-U" /><em>You need to a flashplayer enabled browser to view this YouTube video</em></object></p>
<p>[youtube.com:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue_2_dhh1zo]</p>
<p>BigGovernment is also reporting that Bertha Lewis&#8211;head of ACORN, said the following:</p>
<blockquote><p>This recent scam, which was attempted in San Diego, Los Angeles, Miami, <strong>New York</strong>, Philadelphia to name a few places, had failed for months before the results we’ve all recently seen.<br />
<strong><br />
</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Also, BigGovernment has obtained ACORN&#8217;s Principals and Foundations manual.</p>
<p>In it, it says, <em>&#8220;ACORN&#8217;s lifeblood is conflict with targets outside the organization.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>If this document is legit&#8230;and I am inclined to believe it is, Breitbart&#8217;s onto something&#8230;</p>
<p><a title="http://www.docstoc.com/docs/11270423/Principles-and-Foundations-of-Acorn" href="http://www.docstoc.com/docs/11270423/Principles-and-Foundations-of-Acorn" target="_blank">Check it out here.</a></p>
<p>UPDATE: September 14, 2009:</p>
<p><a title="http://hotair.com/archives/2009/09/14/video-greasy-acorn-spokesman-greasier-than-ever/" href="http://hotair.com/archives/2009/09/14/video-greasy-acorn-spokesman-greasier-than-ever/" target="_blank">Scott Levinson&#8217;s Response.  Check it out here.</a></p>
<p>Also, Andrew Breitbart says devastating ACORN news tomorrow!  Stay tuned.</p>
<p>UPDATE:  September 15, 2009:</p>
<p>BigGovernmnet.com is reporting that because of the human trafficking, prostitution, and child exploitation claims make it a Racketeering organization.</p>
<p>The Department of Justice must now investigate.</p>
<p><a title="http://harringtonreport.com/2009/09/10/acorn-helps-couple-buy-prostitution-house/" href="http://harringtonreport.com/2009/09/10/acorn-helps-couple-buy-prostitution-house/" target="_blank">Read</a>&#8211;BigGovernment</p>
<p>UPDATE:  BigGovernment is reporting that ACORN cannot legally operate in Maryland.</p>
<p><a title="http://biggovernment.com/2009/09/15/exclusive-acorn-illegally-operating-in-maryland/" href="http://biggovernment.com/2009/09/15/exclusive-acorn-illegally-operating-in-maryland/" target="_blank">Read</a></p>
<p>UPDATE:  According to Glenn Beck, another video exists showing an ACORN worker admitting to killing her husband.</p>
<blockquote><p>ACORN REPRESENTATIVE: I in my life have been abused, also. I mean just with an ex?husband, a husband, you know, that just beat the hell out of me, you know, a few times and then, you know, I killed him. But it ?? I don&#8217;t think that that&#8217;s a nice thing. I don&#8217;t think that ??</p>
<p>JAMES: You killed him emotionally?</p>
<p>ACORN REPRESENTATIVE: No, I shot him.</p>
<p>(Inaudible)</p>
<p>JAMES: Self?defense?</p>
<p>ACORN REPRESENTATIVE: Yeah.</p>
<p>JAMES: How old were you then?</p>
<p>ACORN REPRESENTATIVE: It was only actually about ?? well, I was 35.</p></blockquote>
<p>Also, &#8220;she names names of politicians she talks to each day, plus what bills they are lobbying heavily for (with taxpayer money).&#8221;</p>
<p>Doesn&#8217;t that mean they should lose their 501 (c) 3 status?</p>
<p>Working on getting the video&#8230;I&#8217;ll bet BigGovernment will have it&#8230;</p>
<p>UPDATE:  Hannah Giles posted a blog on BigGovernment.com&#8230;It outlines how they operated this sting&#8230;</p>
<p>Here is some of it&#8230;</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px;">3)      <strong>Construct a Hypothesis</strong>: ACORN is corrupt and it is in their nature to promote and disguise illegal behavior.</p>
<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px;">4)      <strong>Experiment</strong>: Baltimore, DC, Brooklyn, San Bernardino, and…</p>
<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px;">5)      <strong>Analyze and draw a conclusion</strong></p>
</blockquote>
<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px;">Now&#8230;I have not seen any San Bernardino video&#8230;Could that be coming?  She makes it sound like there&#8217;s more to come&#8230;</p>
<p style="padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 10px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 0px;">

<p>UPDATE:  September 15, 2009:</p>
<p>I have sent the following message to all the Senators/Congresspeople/Assembly members:</p>
<blockquote><p>There are reports that Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now, ACORN, employees have had frequent conversations with you.  Would you please explain the extent of these conversations? As you may know, ACORN is a 501 (c) 3, and as such, cannot lobby. Any information you can provide to clear up the matter is greatly appreciated.</p></blockquote>
<p>Awaiting a response&#8230;</p>
<p>UPDATE:  September 16, 2009:</p>
<p>I received the following response from Senator McCleod:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Mr. Harrington, you did not include a phone number so I can answer your questions.  Kindly email your number and I will respond, incidentally, I find that you are not registered in the district.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>I asked her to email me a response because I am not usually available by phone.</p>
<p>UPDATE:  Jon Stewart of the Daily Show actually talks about this story!  And he rips the media for not covering it&#8230;</p>
