5. Lou Dobbs had this story too, but no interview ...

:wtf: is Lou trying to get his own show on Faux?

[BeatleBoot]

6. You are killing me!

:rofl:

What a circus Faux News is.

Fucking clowns.

:rofl:

:rofl:

[Grassy Knoll]

7. I don't care what party your with....

Im big time, some times way far left, but ACORN is a kind of knife in Obama's back.
Too many problems to defend, this is a group that does not have our president's back.

[Bjorn Against]

14. ACORN had nothing to do with this, it was only two employees of ACORN

You could find two people in any large organization to say whatever you wanted them to say, it has no bearing on the organization as a whole. This is quite simply a smear job and it is sad to see so many people falling for it.

[Roland99]

21. Apparently, 3 separate ACORN offices behaved in a similar fashion. Not good.

[Bjorn Against]

22. Not good, but the organization had nothing to do with it

I don't think anyone could reasonably argue that ACORN was encouraging their employees to engage in a prostitution ring. This right-wing kid who pulled this stunt was clearly out for blood, and he clearly did not have ethics in mind. ACORN claims the videos were doctored and I trust them more than I trust some kid who dresses up like a pimp and tries to claim the organization is a prostitution ring.

[Roland99]

23. Not necessarily encouraging but where is corporate ethics training?

Doesn't take much more than a burger flipper to realize what the ACORN employees doing was wrong.

[Bjorn Against]

24. If they were doing it then it was wrong...

Right now however they are claiming the video was doctored and I have no reason not to believe them, I just have a hard time thinking of a right-wing kid who goes on the news dressed as a pimp as a person who would be above that.

Ethics training is good, but do you honestly think that all businesses should have to teach their employees not to run a prostitution ring? It is one of those issues that employees are just supposed to know, and if they don't know it they get fired which is exactly what happened.

[Roland99]

27. Doctored my aunt fannie

The dumbasses doing the filming aren't smart enough to make it seamless.

[Bjorn Against]

29. How do you know that it is dumbasses doing the editing?

Remember Forrest Gump and Contact? Those movies are several years old and they featured realistic video of people like JFK and Bill Clinton saying things they never said. If you have a decent sized budget and are good with special effects you can make practically anything appear seamless on film.

[Roland99]

31. Did those two look like they had a decent-sized budget?

[Bjorn Against]

32. I don't know, how can you tell just by looking at someone?

[Roland99]

33. .

:banghead:

Go ahead and defend ACORN and play the fool.

ACORN needed to be running a tighter ship, esp. after the crap leveled at them in 2008. This was just gross negligence.

[Bjorn Against]

34. I believe in innocent until proven guilty

I refuse to believe this pimp on FOX News has established guilt, if I can get a more credible source I may believe it but this guy is not credible.

Tell me what you think ACORN should have done? I am not talking about employees of ACORN I am talking about ACORN as an organization.

[axollot]

44. agree with you there! n/t

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

8. "I'm one of the whitest guys ever." What the fuck is that supposed to mean? nt

[niceypoo]

9. It means he is a republican

Speaking to republicans who automatically believe that all pimps are black.

[mzmolly]

12. Agreed. What a little POS.

:puke:

[Farzan]

15. He meant....

...that even though he is the whitest guy ever, he dresses
ridiculously. Get it?

[Kerrytravelers]

17. Huh? What does his race have to do with how he dresses?

:shrug:

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

38. So black people dress ridiculously (like pimps) or some shit? Yeah I "get it". nt

[Farzan]

39. And the Fox guys....

I love how they did not even bat an eye when he said "I am the whitest guy ever". They know what that means exactly.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

40. On their defense they have to be the 3 stupidest people on TV. So maybe they didn't get it.....

nah just kidding these assholes knew exactly what he meant and share the sentiment.

[Wizard777]

26. He's white. He can't possibly be a real pimp.

[WhoIsNumberNone]

45. If he told me he was a pimp I wouldn't buy it...

He's a skinny white kid who looks like he went to private school. If he really was a pimp he wouldn't last long- somebody would kick his ass and take over his business.

[Bjorn Against]

28. It means he is a racist prick.

[grantcart]

41. that they are so overwhelmingly racist that they don't even see blatant racism

[pam4water]

10. What the heck? Did they really show the views. It's easy enough to stop the splices unless you have

two cameras going. I learned that from the Daily show ;)

[bertman]

19. Did you mean "spot" the splices or "stop" them? I don't understand. Thanks.

[mzmolly]

11. He said they were lying about his doctoring videos prior to his saying he had a

budget of 3 million and worked for Fox News. Who knows what he told the Acorn employees...

[JDPriestly]

13. I thought everyone on Fox News was a pimp. So what's new?

[Red Knight]

16. Ugh

If that clown dressed like that and presented himself as a pimp and those employees bought that story, they should have been fired....for STUPIDITY!

Beyond over the top.

[Kerrytravelers]

18. This is the level of what we're dealing with. This immaturity is what we saw on 9-12and in townhalls

This kind of immaturity is what we're dealing with and why this country is circling the drain.

I'm sure his mother thinks he's cute. I, for one, certainly do not.

[bertman]

20. The Onion could have done this justice. But Faux just sucks.

Any way you cut it, the dumbasses at Acorn who offered to help this clown and his ho deserve whatever they get.

Has anyone actually seen the footage of these incidents?

[Wizard777]

25. Bad news dude. Baltimore is not trying to sue you. They are trying to arrest you.

I would even go as far as saying the videos show a valid conspiracy to operate a house of child prostitution under Maryland Law. The fact that they engaged in the conspiracy to achieve a legal or even moral purpose is irrelevant. They presented a plan to operate a house of child prostitution. In Maryland is illegal to plan a crime.

[Tx4obama]

30. It is a FELONY in Maryland to record someone without their permission...

5 years in prison
$10,000 fine

It's nice that there is now video of pimp/reporter 'admitting' he committed the crime.

[Joe Bacon]

35. Oh, it's Griff Jenkins again...

Looks like Griffy didn't watch The Mack enough to let it sink into his pea brain :rofl:

[Quantess]

36. I admit, I am not a stranger to cocaine, so I know the telltale signs.

Did anyone else notice the darting tongues, nervous lips, and characteristic breathing patterns, of the "pimp" guest, and also of the older blond man?

It's been several years since I have done coke, but, I know it when I see it.

Edit to add: I watched it a second time, and, I would bet that the blond woman did a line with them, as well.

2nd edit to say: I suspect the dark haired talking head did some coke as well, based on his nose-wiping and lip-licking. At first I didn't think so, because his speech wasn't as sassy or crisp as the other three. Maybe the others got bigger lines.

And yes, I'm just making observations.

[CJCRANE]

37. Maybe the Acorn employees thought that it was a comedy skit ...

I bet that's what most people in any organization would assume and would just go along with it expecting some TV star to jump out at the end and tell them they've been punk'd or whatever.

[demwing]

42. How can anyone take this guy seriously? Dressed as a pimp?

Is this real? I'm waiting for someone to step up and say "Gotcha!"

I'll say this now, and quote me - There is something about this whole deal that does not pass the sniff test.

[demwing]

43. Has anyone interviewed the Acorn employees that were fired?

I would like to hear their versions of this story.

[silenttigersong]

46. Punked

I believe if I saw those two coming in I would think I was being Punked not Pimped.:rofl:
