Excellent reporting on this from http://www.newshounds.us/">News Hounds:

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Rove's hoof prints were on this somewhere along the line.

suffragette has http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=102&topic_id=4054553&mesg_id=4058600">posted some background info on James O'Keefe's links to the "The Leadership Institute", where Rove is also a past student.

Details of a fellow attendee of "The Leadership Institute" who he conducted a similar sting with, http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=102&topic_id=4054553&mesg_id=4054687">here.

And, according to a reply on the YouTube link:

Hannah Giles is the Daughter of http://www.google.com/search?q=Doug+Giles&sourceid=ie7&rls=com.microsoft:en-US&ie=utf8&oe=utf8">Doug Giles, wingnut talk radio host and townhall.com writer.

Good report on this, here: http://dailydoubt.blogspot.com/2009/09/apple-didnt-fall-far-from-tree.html">The apple didn't fall far from the tree

1. Arguably?
Edited on Tue Sep-15-09 05:28 AM by ScottLand
It is or it's not. Is that a grey area? Is it arguably illegal to run a red light in Maryland?

2. Acorn screwed up.
It was hard to watch, and even tho they may have went into a hundred offices to score the footage or if the taping was illegal, Acorn screwed up. I hope that they fix themselves and can restore their reputation in the future. So sad. :(

3. Here's the new rw media meme using this ACORN footage to attack Obama.
They are saying that ACORN's current debacle and downfall
is going to hurt Obama because of his bio concerning
community organizing.

I heard Nora O'Donnell say this this morning.

She's a presstitute all right, worse than ACORN.

5. She's rignt
There are enough individuals on "news" broadcasts who lack the capacity to discern reality when it differs from their bias. For instance Nora frequently pleases Republicans with he mouth.

Do I misrepresent, or shall we call it accurate as far as it goes?

10. You obviously haven't been watching Rachel Maddow or Keith Olbermann lately
One of the big differences between Faux news and MSNBC is that MSNBC has facts that can be verified by a quick search on google. Faux's disinformation can only be found on their own website.

BTW it's "worse" and "their".

12. Based on your spelling skills and accuracy, I suspect you are an undercover repub as well.
I would be willing to bet that you have one of those "Say No to Socilism" protest signs in your garage. :)

9. bad apples? you mean like at
Lehmans, Bear Stearns, Moodys, S&P, Fitch, Fannie Mae, Citi Group, UBS...

OR

the Young Republicans, GOP, John Birch Society, Freedom Works, Liberty University Alumni Association???

Ha. If all of ACORN can be indicted for being complicit in prostitution and pimping, then every Republican in Congress is a same-sex underage teen humping, shoplifting, cocaine-sniffing, Constitution-ignoring, captive-torturing, bribe-taking, whore-sampling, Argentinian woman-adulterating, hypocritical turd blossom.

If it's good for the goose, it's good for the gander. The GOP's "resurgence" will last only as long as their next scandal.

8. There's videos of cops doing illegal things all the time
But there's no stigma attached to supporting law enforcement.

13. Thanks
I would post it in GD but nearly everything I post in there seems to drop like a stone for some reason. Feel free to take the info over there if you'd like to, though... ;-)
