A right-wing friend posted this on facebook.

I'm assuming this video is completely full of shit. There has to be something else going on that we don't know about. My friend is using this to demonize the entire ACORN organization,

Have you guys heard anything about this?

1. There's some question about "selective editing" on this one.

Apparently, it's pretty obvious to techie types.

2. Even if it isn't edited that much, I don't get how that demonizes all of ACORN.

3. The one bad apple theory

Apparently, they went to three or four different offices and got kicked out before hitting the jackpot.

Given they used the name "Kenya" for the fake prostitute, it shows you the mindset of the people behind it.

But again, it's like if they close one Taco Bell for e-coli poisoning. Get the word out, suddenly a reg flag goes up. FAUX could care less if the other offices rejected them or were clean.

4. That is what stuck out for me. At least 5 other offices kicked them out.

5. they treat ACORN the same way for voter registration

you can have 99 out of 100 valid registrations. You get one bogus one that slips through and suddenly there is massive fraud.

6. the question i posed to the RWer that forwarded this video to me..

lets just suppose for a minute that the allegations are true, and that two (2) staffers in the employ of ACORN were "Caught in Balitmore promoting prostitution, tax evasion and 13 year old prostitution." is it your intent to show that this is proof positive that all of ACORN are corrupt child pimps? i'll go ahead and take the bait and say that yes, this tarnishes the efforts of the entire organization, if you'll concede that based on the actions of Mark Foley and Larry Craig, that all republicans are closeted homosexual pedophiles that engage in homoerotic activities in public restrooms.
