This is a made up scandal. There were no pimps, no prostitutes, no children.

TRANSCRIPT:

Don: Ok here’s my question, Senate bill yesterday passes cutting off funds to this group called ACORN. Now we got the…we got that bill passing, we got the embarrassing video of ACORN staff giving tax advice on how to set up a brothel with 13 year old hookers. It has everything you could want corruption and sleazy action at tax funded organizations that’s got government ties. But nobody’s covering that story why?

Charlie Gibson: (laugh) I don’t even know about it. Uh, so you got me at a loss, I don’t know. Uh, uh, but, but My goodness if it’s got everything including sleaziness in it we should talk about it this morning.

Roma: This is the American way…

Charlie Gibson: Well maybe, maybe that’s one you just leave to the cables.

Roma: Well I think that this is a huge issue because there’s so much funding that goes into this organization and it’s a multi…

Charlie Gibson: Well, I know we’ve done some stories about ACORN before but uh, uh this one I don’t know about.

Roma: Jake Tapper did some blogging on it. I know he’s at least blogged once on this scandal.

Charlie Gibson: You guys, you guys are really up on the uh on the website.

ACORN fascinates you because you are hoping you can make the "graft and corruption" stick to Obama in people's minds. And so does FOX. I am completely willing to believe that ACORN has serious problems in some, or even many, of their branch offices, but that doesn't require a Chicken Little approach nor a witch hunt for congress people that voted funding for them: if you are correct that the "liberal media" has refused to cover this, then how do you expect representatives to know what some ACORN local offices have been doing, by calling the Psychic Friends network? I truly regret any and all shady ACORN activities because I know that the right has been in a frenzy over the "terrifying" prospect of a powerful voting block of organized minorities, and has been working overtime to find a way to discredit them, and ACORN should not have played into their hands especially in such stupid ways. Not to mention the opportunity for white folks to say "pimp" "pimp" "pimp" and "prostitute" which is always fun for bigots.
