Here's the actual video of ACORN workers that caused the US Senate to pass a resolution this week denying the poverty group federal funds. Watch as the ACORN workers help an undercover pimp and prostitute apply for federal aid in order to open a house of prostitution using teenage girls from El Salvador.
This is the same group that denied that they were responsible for voter registration fraud in the 2008 election.

When I was heavily into Community Organizing we always were touching base with ACORN in one way shape form or another.
Unfortunately ACORN is to Community Organizing much the same as the Taliban is to the world of Islam.
F-A-N-A-T-I-C-A-L!!! And I do mean waaaaay off the deep end of the spectrum.

The "mainstream" news is barely touching the story. Sad. It's real funny that they deny voter fraud and they're had 50 people arrested for it so far, 30 convicted. Hmmm..convicted of voter fraud...that means they can still deny it.
Just remember, when an investigation was going to be done by a Democrat of Acorn....the "powers to be", said no. Those "powers" were just never defined who they were.

Harry Reid has called her, " ... a working mother with two young children, Kirsten brings unique perspective to the challenging issues we are debating in Congress. In just six month, Kirsten has introduced a number of new and innovative legislative approaches to the problems many families face.” Uh-huh. The NY Daily News described her meteoric rise in politics and her "legislative approaches" as "The Making Of A Rubber Stamp." Her upstate Congressional district constituents thought of her as a turncoat. Assisted by family money and connections, she had run for Congress against an entrenched Republican with a tainted reputation and was about to lose by a landslide when the Congressman beat his wife up a week before the election. Gillibrand took the election with less than a majority of the vote. In office a short time, having come from nowhere, she put her hat in the ring for Hilary's Senate seat ... against Caroline Kennedy ... and the "mother of two" flip-flopped on gun control, gay marriage and immigration. She was appointed to the US Senate, but will have to survive an election in two years. Expect Reid and cohorts to spend MILLIONS to keep her. The amount of money they will spend on Madison Avenue will no doubt push the NY State GDP up by a point. Actually, Tina Rutnik (known as Kirsten Gillibrand since entering politics a few years ago) comes from a powerful Albany political family. Her British husband, Jonathan Gillibrand, is a financial guru and through his wife is now connected to the House Armed Services Committee and the House Committee on Agriculture. Just plain folks.
