> "The conservatives PROPOSED the idea. The ACORNITES ran with it" -- Aahhh...so by your logic, they're both guilty but instead you falsely idolize one while falsely persecute the other. I believe that is the text book definition of hypocrisy.

Good God, talk about being deliberately obtuse. The obvious difference that you are deliberately avoiding is that the two that proposed it KNEW that it was a fiction. The ones who ran with it thought it was true. Or are you seriously trying to say that Giles and O'Keefe were really planning to start a sex-slave trafficking business along, but decided to go with outing ACORN instead because they thought it would make them celebrities?

The rest of your post deserves no comment, but I will anyway. ACORN is being investigated and/or prosecuted for voter registration fraud in (at my last count) 13 states, more than 1 in 4. They've turned in thousands of completely bogus voter registration forms that they have ADMITTED to, thousands more that they have been convicted for, and probably tens of thousands that they have not YET admitted to or been convicted for. There have been multiple convictions of ACORN operatives for this over the years, most recently in Missouri, if I remember right. A few irresponsible low-level employees, my ass.
