Glenn Beck of FOX News
Glenn Beck's show on Fox News at 5:00PM EST will premier another about ACORN(Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) by independent film maker James O'Keefe. This is supposed to be the most scandalous yet.!
Most of the videos have been breaking on the morning show, Fox and Friends but apparently they are holding back for prime time. The prior videos can be seen on Andrew Breitbart's website www.biggovernment.com. The undercover videos show James O'Keefe an aspiring Congressional candidate and his associate Hannah Giles as his prostitute girlfriend going into ACORN offices in Washington, DC, Baltimore, MD, and most recently Brooklyn, NY trying to obtain a housing loan for a brothel. ACORN workers in all three offices tell Giles and O'Keefe how to cover up prostitution to make it look like a legal business for tax purposes, hide funds in different bank accounts, and obtain a mortgage for a house to use as a brothel. They also go on to advise Giles that in her profession she has to "think quick."
ACORN was defunded yesterday by the United States senate because of it's possible illegal activities by a vote of 83-7. The Census bureau was relieved of their duties of outreach for the bureau in 2010; Now their is also breaking news that the organization is also being investigated by the Brooklyn DA.
It is respectful that Glenn Beck is going to the extent he is to report the ACORN story along with FOX news. He is also been vigilant in reporting about the 9/12/09 Tea Party in DC, and transparent on Obama's agenda on health care. Thank you, Mr. Beck!

Good for Beck! Bring down the socialist!
NOBAMA!
Thank you for reporting the TRUTH! Go Glenn Beck keep it going!
I'm a Democrat soon to be a Independent. To hell with this Liberal party and the scumbag organizations it deals with. It is plain disgusting. IMPEACHMENT NOW!!!!!!
Keep it up Glenn!
I cannot believe the Liberals paid $8 billion to this organization with my tax dollars!!!! Crooks are funding the crooks. Impeachment them all - every single one of those bastards in DC.
I like the one other person commenting here was a democrat and even voted for Obama. OMG what a mistake I made. I hope all democrats, republicans and independents alike, please open your eyes. Our country is being overrun by criminals and corruption which Im afraid ill show leads all the way to the white house. People! WAKE UP! It's time to completely clean house. EVERY DAMN ONE OF THEM
Good for you Glenn keep up the good work...I can only hope and pray all citizens of this country wake up and smell the stuff these politicians are serving up...replace them all...and if the next bunch doesn't work replace them too...
Obama said to judge him by the company he keeps.
That's what we're doing. We don't like it.
Just wondering ... did anyone see Obama's speech today (9/15/09)? When did he develop a southern accent ? LOL ... it was embarrassing to say the least. It didn't work for Hillary, what in the world made him think it would work for him ? He sounded like a southern baptist preacher announcing a football game ! LOL ... "Are you fired up? Are you fired up" ? OMG ... doesn't anyone check this stuff BEFORE he goes out and makes a complete ass out of himself and the whole democratic party? For Pete's sake ... Obama with a southern twang. Now I have seen it all!
Thank you Jill and Lyle! I appreciate your honesty and humility. The unwillingness of American voters (and nonvoters) to say that they made a mistake in voting for a candidate has reached dangerous levels. I am a former Rebublican, now Independent. I voted for GWB in both final elections. Still don't think I could have voted for Kerry, but nonetheless, I am embarrassed by the direction the Republican party has taken and feel that Bush did a horrible job as President. I am fiscally rather conservative and try to focus on responsibility, but socially very moderate. That said, the Republicans have become a party of social radicals, but like in the case of Bush, fiscally irresponsible. Glenn Beck, IMO is doing a great job of exposing the MSM, whose only response to his courage and proactive reporting is to demonize him, right out of Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, a favorite piece of our current President's. Sorry for rambling, lol.
Glenn, your work is priceless!
Obama is not ACORN. Obama did not hire these people. I am sure Glenn will not tell you how many times this film-maker tried this stunt. Corruption is everywhere, even in our churches. Speaking of G. Beck, anyone fact check this guy or is his word always the gospel? He calls the president a racist? Nothing but fear mongering lies and hatred from this man. Obama's mother is white. Disgusting. Then he claims that Obama is going to "brainwash" our kids, even though the speech was released to the media the day before. All he said was stay in school. And this socialist word getting thrown around. Does anyone realize that presidents don't write laws? If you don't like government in your lives, then take away grandma's medicare, take away public schools, public libraries. Let's take away financial aid too. Why are the conservs so afraid of Obama? The legislative branch is the only branch that can write laws. If your unhappy, talk to your state lawmaker. Get people to the polls, vote vote vote.
We need the repubs and the independents keeping the democrats honest. But lets be respectful and constructive about it. Don't lie, and call anyone a nazi (lookin at you Beck). The president is trying to help fix our health care system. We have people who are not eligible for medicaid, and employer won't supply any health insurance. I've been there it's tough. The president is trying his best (even if you disagree with him) he is not genuinely waking up in the morning and thinking how he can mess things up. Insurance companies have departments that try to find ways to not pay for your health bills. This needs to be fixed, lawmakers are working on it. I am so sick and tired of insurance companies, I would welcome a medicare for everyone. Grandma likes it. BUT hey, you like your insurance keep it, the idea behind public option is the fact that it is an option. Obama has said a public option is not essential. Lawmakers say otherwise, send them a letter. Be constructive about it.
Im not smart..but if I would to do the same as ACORN...to lie, cheat,steal...I would get locked up..why are they free? I would think they(people working for acorn) knew better.. stealing..and to keep going on thinking they would not get busted...I can only pray for them and gov...like i said Im not smart...may God keep his loving arms around us...forgive us for our sins...to make right for the wrongs we have done..in Jesus name.Amen...Thank You Mr.Beck for being that voice..to open my eyes to the workings of gov.Thank you also to your staff......
JOey
Giving assistance to a supposed pimp, and prostitute as well as helping them traffic underage sex workers is most shocking, but is that the worst of it?
Some issues that effect many more americans include:
1. How many people have had to pay more in taxes to pay for government because acorn encouraged individuals to cheat the IRS.
2 How much has it cost tax payers to pay for government assistance benefiting individuals from using acorn's advice to lie on taxes.
3. What has been the cost to the entire Americans economy due to acorns participation in getting people into home they could not afford resulting in mortgage crisis and credit crunch, worsening an economic swing.
Keep up the good fact reporting Glenn - what a video that was. Wait, what? That the whole video tape was ACORN punking O'Keefe? Nobody bothered to verify that the things the ACORN person said were totally bogus? Smear at any cost.
Got something to say?
