BUSTED: California to Investigate ACORN Videos
Looks like the right wing's favorite pimp and ho will have some more explaining to do in California.
Atty. Gen. Jerry Brown's office plans to look into circumstances surrounding both the making of the videos and any possible misdeeds by ACORN employees in California caught on tape......
.....It is illegal under state law to tape someone without his or her permission.
http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la...,5150787.story
And that's not all. Sen. Vitter outspoken critic of ACORN and admitted whore monger is now facing ethics complaint.
Just days after Republican Sen. David Vitter, R-La., called for an investigation into ACORN for assisting a fake prostitution ring, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) filed a complaint with the Louisiana Office of Disciplinary Counsel against Vitter for violating rules of professional conduct by repeatedly soliciting real prostitution, according to a statement posted on the non-partisan group's website.
In 2007, Vitter admitted to violating the law by soliciting prostitution after media reports revealed that his telephone number was included on the "DC Madam's" client list.
Soon after, two New Orleans women told reporters that Vitter regularly visited a brothel run by a woman known as the "Canal Street Madam" in that city in the 1990s.
In a third situation, the CREW statement added, another woman who worked as a prostitute with the alias Wendy Cortez said that Vitter was a regular client in 1999.

The right wing has inadvertently stepped into a world of shit in their overzealous attempt to demonize ACORN.
- The pimp and ho pranksters are facing criminal investigations in Maryland and California.
- Congress has opened the door to defund scores of military contractors worth millions of dollars.
- ACORN is suing the pimp and ho pranksters personally.
- Breitbart is getting sued by ACORN as well.
- Sen. Vitter will be investigated for his notorious amount of whore mongering.
- The fired U.S. Attorneys scandal has but put back into the the spotlight because they refused to file bogus charges against ACORN.
Right wingers will rue the day they decided to fuck with ACORN.

Just wondering, Drizzz, why ACORN fired those two Maryland workers who were so grievously wronged in that video. It just doesn't make sense to fire them, then sue on their behalf the people who proved they were eager to participate in a criminal conspiracy.

I stand corrected. I always defer to the cool, level headed, superior intellect, and logical reasoning of Glen Beck on all matters of public importance.

Will House "De-Fund ACORN Bill" De-Fund Military Contractors?
"ACORN should be held to the same high standards of every other government contractor," says Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Florida. "But there are bigger fish to fry."
Before being elected to Congress, Grayson was a former government contracts lawyer and brought False Claims Act cases on behalf of whistleblowers against contractors, including many in Iraq. He now sits on the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittees of both the House Financial Services Committee and House Science and Technology Committee.
"We can't have a situation where the laws of justice are applied to one organization and not to any of the others, particularly when there are organizations that are polluting water for our soldiers and electrocuting them," Grayson says.
Contractor KBR installed electrical wiring in Iraq that led to electrocution deaths of US soldiers. One such death, of Green Beret Sgt. Ryan Maseth, was classified by the Army Criminal Investigations Division as a "negligent homicide," though the Pentagon ruled it would not pursue criminal charges.
The Florida Democrat says that the legislation the House passed characterized as banning federal funds from ACORN is actually much more broadly written than that, and could impact hundreds of companies if signed into law.
The House bill, offered by Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., bans Federal contracts, grants, funds, and agreements from any covered organization -- including "(a)ny organization that has filed a fraudulent form with any Federal or State regulatory agency."
"De-fund the crooks," he says. "The numbers of those who have filed fraudulent forms with the government -- it's like a who's who of government contracting."
Lockheed Martin, Boeing Company, Raytheon, General Dynamics -- major companies are cited on the Project on Government Oversight's "Contractor Misconduct" website, Grayson points out.
He says he hopes president Obama signs the legislation so as "to rid us of this plague."
Asked for comment, Issa spokesman Kurt Bardella told ABC News, "frankly, I don’t know how anyone can successfully argue those who actually perpetrate fraud and misuse taxpayer dollars shouldn’t be held to a more scrutinized standard. But if people want to start a crusade defending federal dollar recipients who have committed fraud and mismanaged taxpayer dollars – they are welcome to make that case to the American people. For far too long, recipients of federal dollars have been given free reign and some have acted in a reckless and cavalier way and whether it be ACORN or anyone else – abuse and fraud will not be tolerated."

Ah, yes. Governor Moonbeam, who helped singlehandedly destroy California, by inciting a taxpayer revolt, declaring war on business and encouraging illegal immigrants to sit down and stay awhile.
I can see why you'd admire him.
I wonder where California will get the money to prosecute these folks for doing the job the Attorney General's office should have been doing, as they belatedly start their own investigation of ACORN.

ACORN is a tough nut to crack.
