ACORN Officials Videotaped Telling 'Pimp,' And 'Prostitute' How to Lie to IRS to get free government housing while keeping their prostitution business going.. And providing guidance on how to claim underage prostitute girls from South America as dependents.
And as usual, MSNBC, ABC, and CNN are not covering it.. But It's the lead Story on fox..
James O'Keefe, a 25-year-old independent filmmaker, posed as a pimp with a 20-year-old woman named "Kenya" who posed as a prostitute while visiting ACORN's office in Baltimore. The couple told ACORN staffers they wanted to secure housing where the woman could continue to maintain a prostitution business.
On the videotape, "Kenya" can be seen telling an ACORN staffer that she earns roughly $8,000 a month. The ACORN employee then suggests to "Kenya" that ACORN could submit a tax return for 2008 showing that she made $9,600 for the entire year — instead of $96,000 — and that ACORN would charge "Kenya" $50 instead of the usual $150 fee for preparing her taxes.
The ACORN staffer can also be seen suggesting that the prostitute list her occupation as a freelance "performing artist."
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.
"What if they are going to be making money because they are performing tricks too?" the pimp says.
"If they making money and they are underage, then you shouldn't be letting anybody know anyway," the ACORN staffer says, and laughs. "It's illegal. So I am not hearing this, I am not hearing this. You talk too much. Don't give up no information you're not asked."
The "pimp" then asks ACORN staffers to "promise" not to discriminate against his sex worker because of "who she is and what she does," according to the audiotape.
"If we don't have the information, then how are we going to discriminate?" the ACORN staffer replies. "You see what I am saying?"
If the girls are under age 16, the ACORN staffer says on the tape, then they are not legally allowed to work in the state, regardless of what they do.
"So it's like they don't even exist?" "Kenya" asks.
"Exactly," the ACORN staffer replies. "It's like they don't even exist."
The staffer goes on to suggest that as many as three of the underage girls can be listed as dependents at the home, but a "flag" will be raised if as many as 13 are listed.
"You are gonna use three of them," the staffer says. "They are gonna be under 16, so you is eligible to get child tax credit and additional child tax credit."
The ACORN workers also appear to be promoting the group's services to the "pimp" and "Kenya."
A second ACORN employee can be heard on the audiotape suggesting that the couple join the organization for an annual cost of $120 prior to attending one of its first-time homebuyer seminars, which are underwritten with taxpayer funds.
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."
"These girls are like 14, how can we trust them?" the pimp asks.
"Just be very, very careful," the ACORN staffer says. "Whatever you do, always keep your eyes in the back of your head."

Lets not forget our dear leader has rewarded ACORN handsomely for the effort acorn put forward to help win his election. With round about TARP and Stimulus money...
If this was the Bush administration and the company was Haliburton. The libs would be having a coronary.. Hell they would be so mad blood would run from their ears......
Oh but it's comrade Obamas helping hand.. So lets just ignore it for the most part in the media...
We only have a company that Obama Trained in "organizing" and acted as a legal advisory for helping people start underage human trafficking and prostitution on the taxpayers dime...
Nah that,s not important.....
But alas ACORN is the kink of "stooges" and will distance themselves for those "Rogue" workers......
AHHHH But it isn't over yet...
Criminal Charges are sure to follow for tax fraud....
Then the Massive IRS audits of all returns these people did..
Once that snowball gets rolling other things will come to light...
This, this is only the tip of the spear.

Judge Andrew Napolitano, FOX News senior judicial analyst said the worker could also face charges for criminal conspiracy, though each charge would require a heavier burden to prove: a so-called "act of furtherance" — a concrete move that makes the conspiracy active.
Napolitano outlined eight crimes the ACORN worker could potentially have committed that could bring a total sentence of 24 years in prison, including criminal facilitation and conspiracy to:
• (a) commit prostitution
• (b) operate a prostitution ring
• (c) file false documents with taxing and other government authorities
• (d) file false documents with a bank [also known as bank fraud]
• (e) violate numerous immigration laws
• (f) transport children into the U.S. for immoral purposes
• (g) transport women into the U.S. for immoral purposes [also known as violating the Mann Act]
• (h) impair the welfare of minors.

It's hard to put an exact number on it.. It was washed around some.. They have access to "compete for" 4.8 billion in "neighborhood stabilization activities."... The money was previously limited to state and local governments, but that Democrats got part of it to be available to non-profit entities. like Acorn...
Obama used a non-profit group called Citizens Services Inc. as a front to funnel payments (800,000 total) to ACORN for campaign advance work. That was from his own campaign money though.
But they were funneled money through Financial organizations..
Acorn got 2 million from Bank of America that was laundered Stimulus money
JpMorgan Chase laundered 5 million to Acorn after getting bailed out..
They have tons of front companies to get "Grants" but it's mostly all laundered tax dollars

2 Acorn Employees Fired...story (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,549001,00.html)
The entire ACORN organization has turned from what was at one time a legit association to a most corrupt one...that is obvious. This example is merely a microcosm of the big picture :rant: :mad:

Oh, I'm sure they have gotten far more than 40 million from this administration in some shape or form..
And previous ones too.. But it wasn't until about 94 when they made a radical turn.. Back when Clinton did the whole "urban revitalization" Then it turned into a money grab for Acorn and they have been basically extorting funds everywhere they can... But now, well now it's just being laundered to them..

Oh Jeez man that's a rabbit hole and a half.. With as many shell companies as they have.. And companies they have protested to the point of extortion.
Well ACORN has received at least $53 million in federal money since 1994. But in the past years the federal tit has gone somewhat dry and they had to switch to more radical tactics...
Here are 3 pages of the fed grants in a spreadsheet..

What these two ACORN reps did was indeed repulsive, but what is even more repulsive is the people that lead to the Obama Adm. and all of the Czars and cabinet members he has installed. They ALL don't see a thing wrong with many of the people that MILLIONS of americans find disgusting. It truly is scarry. It's beyond being a democrat or a republican. What about common, decent, caringabout fellow americans? It seems that since the democrats have taken control of all branches, all they are concerned about is rubbing the other parties noses in crap. Got news for you all...you are alienating a great portion of ALL America, and it will have lasting percussions. Yea, laugh now, but when the other shoe is on, we will see. I'm an independant, and have come to the conclusion that the democratic party seems to think they are above everybody else, especially when it comes to knowing what is best for us dumb poor Americans.I have YET to see something from any democratic adm. that has actually worked, or not bitten us in the ass in the future.Kennedy,Johnson,Carter,Clinton....look at their history. Clinton does perverted things to a woman in the whitehouse and NOTHING is done??? That about sums it up... Acorn is just another example of the democrats not having leadership...and to think this story was NOT covered by the liberal press...laugh if you must, but thats a fact that dems cannot cover.....................makes me sick...and all ACORN can say was this tape was an example of the right trying to smear its organization...JEEZE US !!!! you have got to be kidding me....THE CATKING !!! :dizzy:

Two more ACORN workers were fired Today after a second video surfaced, this time showing staff members in the community organizers' Washington office offering to help the undercover man and woman acquire illegal home loans that would help them set up a brothel.
Isolated incident my butt! 2 groups of Acorn Workers in Geographically separate Offices, one in Baltimore, and one in Washington help an individual get government housing to set up a brothel....
1 incident may only be rogue workers..
2 incidents in separate cities shows company "policy"

US Census Bureau Severs Ties With ACORN..
"Over the last several months, through ongoing communication with our regional offices, it is clear that ACORN's affiliation with the 2010 Census promotion has caused sufficient concern in the general public, has indeed become a distraction from our mission, and may even become a discouragement to public cooperation, negatively impacting 2010 Census efforts. Unfortunately, we no longer have confidence that our national partnership agreement is being effectively managed through your many local offices. For the reasons stated, we therefore have decided to terminate the partnership,"

Congressmen calling for a hearing of the Oversight Subcommittee of the House Ways and Means Committee...
"In light of the apparent flagrant and willful attempts to suborn tax fraud, I ... (am seeking) a hearing of the Oversight Subcommittee of the House Ways and Means Committee as soon as practicable to investigate ACORN’s activities,"
Taxpayers should be outraged that their money has gone to an organization that, in addition to facing charges of voter fraud and tax violations, is willing to facilitate prostitution,"
"As this video confirms, ACORN continues to operate as a criminal enterprise."

A THIRD Video from Baltimore.. This time ACORN Blames FOX News.
A third video, this time in Brooklyn NY, following Washington DC and Baltimore.... Of ACORN representatives Helping a pimp and prostitute cheat on their taxes and Open a Brothel......
One Location may be an isolated incident, another location may be a coincidence.. A third location that is GUILTY of the exact same thing shows COMPANY POLICY......
ACORN chief organizer Bertha Lewis said the videos capturing her former workers were "doctored....It's plain and simple all right there.. No doctoring.. Acorn workers in three geographically separated areas are seen, offering to help a pimp and prostitute cheat on their taxes so they can get government housing and open an underage human trafficking and prostitution ring...
Call your representatives, Demand Federal Investigation. Get rid of these crooks..

According to USASpending.gov, a federal government Web site for tracking government grants, ACORN Housing Corporation received $1.6 million to provide housing services to low-income communities in this fiscal year, ending Sept. 30. The Department of Housing and Urban Development Grants has given $8.2 million to ACORN between 2003 and 2006, as well as $1.6 million to ACORN affiliates.

Senate Votes to Cut Off ACORN Housing Funding
The 83-7 vote denies housing and community grant funding to the organization
The Senate measure is scheduled to pass this week and must be reconciled with a companion House measure that passed in July before becoming law.
MSNBC actually picked up the story this time (front page but sub story) but only reposted an AP article...
CNN Still refuses to cover the truth. Even on Politics page.. Instead runs story about Rep Joe Wilson Who shouted you lie at Obama... Aparently that's more important..
