ACORN is at it again

After reading the article it looks more like a trap that someone fell into. these few paragraphs gives me this idea:
The conservative filmmakers unsuccessfully attempted similar ruses at the group's offices in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Los Angeles, California, and New York, Levenson said.

The video footage -- which has been edited and goes to black in some areas -- was recorded and posted online Thursday by James O'Keefe, a conservative activist.

I think the two employees involved were fired over this, evidently their boss was convinced that they were guilty. I'll bet they only got fired because they were caught however.

Doesn't it disturb you that they would have people working for them who could fall into such an obviously baited trap?

The first response to being told of an illegal enterprise should have been that such an endeavor is illegal and as such ACORN staff cannot offer any advice or than perhaps the advice to reconsider such an endeavor.

I think this forms evidence of a possible "corporate culture" existing at ACORN. It is unthinkable to assume that these two were simply rogues. My guess is that they just got caught.

ya, it disturbs me, but where i live this wouldn't make the local news. as we, here, are used to this way of thinking. here they would have asked for a bribe and told you who to contact in the police to help you. as our whole gov. is corrupt. bribes here is called incentive bonuses

Dare I ask what country you live in? Surely it can't be the US.

The scary thing is Obama gives Acorn money hand over fist. Acorn should be beheaded and torn asunder. The sad thing is that I have zero confidence anything will happen other than the firing of a couple people.
