What a crock! They get caught on tape, not once but twice (at least). They are saying virtually the same things to the undercover reporters and giving the same advice. And it is a set up. In different locations at different times. And the people giving the advice are knowingly advising the methods to break the law. Obviously an ACORN training method coming into the mix.

Of course anything negative about them just has to be racially motivated. They play that card on everything.

They should be banned from ever receiving a government contract and the leaders of the group investigated for criminal activities.

Conyers said that "the powers that be" prohibited him from continuing his initial investigation into ACORN wrongdoing.

The Powers That Be should be investigated too.

Which is why it will be left to bloggers and Fox to investigate Acorn. The "powers that be" apparantly have much to fear in such an investigation.
