ACORN Will Disband

Image
Photo from Getty Images' Mark Wilson Sadly, there has been one area where the Brebitbartapalypse did fall and caused a stupefying impact. Just a few days after announcing that they would file for Chapter 7, ACORN will disband as of April 1 , as only the separate ACORN housing will remain . And it's fitting that it closes for good on that day, as the foolish nutty actions of Fake Pimp telephone operator and his further demented Red Eye master has led to that. Not only they, however, are accountable for ACORN's rapid downfall into oblivion, as the New York Times and the rest of the media know the roles that contributed in this happening. So the downtrodden once again take the hit in America thanks to the rabid elite. If only they had re-named their organization Xe or KBR, they wouldn't have had to suffer like they have under the life and times of Bishop Tragic Don Operator Fail, his pathetic prostitute accomplice, and a poor man's Drudge.

Yesterday's Leftovers For 3/21/10: Well That Took Forever.....And It Wasn't Even That Good.

Image
Today, despite being vindicated time and time again over the last few months, ACORN continues to spiral towards bankruptcy. The New York Times spilled the details of how a conference call led by the organization's CEO Bertha Lewis will talk about filing for Chapter 7 (unless it has already happened already). And barring a miraculous influx of ostentation coming in, the nutty Right will have officially scored a win at the expense of the poor of the nation (if they haven't already with how publicly ridiculed the organization has received). But the most revealing thing about that report today was not the fact of ACORN's impending bankruptcy. Rather, it was the fact that it came from the New York Times. Why is that a salient characteristic? Because this is the same newspaper that won't admit publicly that it facilitated in ACORN becoming poor in the midst of fighting for......the really poor. As Media Matters has documented as astutely as they always do, the New Yo...

The Straight Jacket Award #1/Yesterday's Leftovers #2 For 3/17/10: He's Got More Tapes!!!

Image
The Breitbart one has more tapes! Oh my, what glorious news ! You heard that? The tapes on HUD will be released once his wannabe Pimp pupil gets "out of legal woes" for being Mr. Telephone repair man. I guess that means Breitbart has tapes glaore on HCAN, and MoveOn, and everything else. Hell, he may even have tapes on the Census Bureau as well. And knowing how he obsesses over them, he probably has tapes on Media Matters as well. The Breitbartcaylpse is go great, and people have to understand that it's been going on since he arrived on the scene, not when he announce it three weeks ago. Keep those "tapes" coming Breitbartee, because you just can't enough..... ....Straight Jacket Award.

The Law Under Andrew Breitbart

Is a scary thought, isn't it? Especially after you see him say that his pimp telephone guy apprentice and crew did "nothing wrong" and that "Mary Landrieu got punked." Yup, despite entering "federal ground under false pretenses" to possibly mess with federal property, they did "nothing wrong." In the minds of the crazy, they can do nothing wrong.

The Sleep Time Thread For 2/1-2/10: The "Hugest Misunderstanding" Ever

Fake pimp and phone repair guy had an interview with the Insanity tonight. Oh, was it fun. And he said he will continue "hitting the ground running." So, will he disguise himself as a moleman underground now? I'll let you ponder that as Tevin sings you to sleep.....Goodnight:

It's Okay If He Broke The Law, As Long As He Wasn't Wiretapping!

A lot of people today have been talking about the shoutfest that was nutcase Andrew Breitbart getting grilled by MSNBC's David Shuster at 3 PM today. Breitbart's defense of his lackey James O'Keefe's serious actions by trying to frame the discussion as "Ha, it wasn't wire tapping, so you Shuster and the rest of the media have failed and smeared him unjustly " was expected. And Shuster should have known he was going to provide a craven lunatic a platform to make it as messy and "You decide-ish" as Breitbart did in my mind. What makes Breitbart's desperate attempts for a pushback (and anything that O'Keefe and his spy partners in fail) so futile and ridiculous is one thing that one Ms. Wheeler simply explains: Aside from all the yelling, what I find notable about this is the way Breitbart succeeds in preventing Shuster from explaining what O’Keefe has been charged with: entering US property “for the purpose of willfully and maliciousl...

His Defense Of His Lackey Is Touching

Image
It truly is Wait until the facts are in. Mainstream Media, ACORN, Media Matters (all the supposed defenders of due process and journalistic ethics) are jumping to conclusions over the arrest today of James O'Keefe, with the clear intention to smear and, if possible, convict O'Keefe and his alleged co-conspirators in the court of public opinion in order to taint the "jury of their peers." [...] Let me state clearly for the record: wiretapping is wrong. But until I hear the full story from James O'Keefe, I will not speculate as to what he was doing in Louisiana. May the comedy keep on coming.

Tisk, Tisk, Tisk, Tisk, Tisk

Now he will truly understand how it is hard out here for a pimp The FBI, alleging a plot to wiretap Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu's office in downtown New Orleans, arrested four people Monday, including James O'Keefe, a conservative filmmaker whose undercover videos at ACORN field offices severely damaged the the advocacy group's credibility. FBI Special Agent Steven Rayes alleges that O'Keefe aided and abbetted two others, Joseph Basel and Robert Flanagan, who dressed up as employees of a telephone company and attempted to interfere with the office's telephone system. A witness from Landrieu's staff said O'Keefe was present in the office and claimed to be "waiting for someone to arrive." I can't wait for Hannity and Breitbart to say "ACORN now owns the FBI!" Update: Breitbart is on a level of feeling devastated like no other right now "I need to find information on this. I'm out of the loop on this. I will make my ...

OOPS...........ACORN Funding Looks To Be Restored

Image
There must be a special reason for me to ever link to Politico. This is one of those special reasons : A judge in New York ordered that ACORN’s federal funding be restored, rolling back a slew of Congressional actions that sought to stop taxpayer money from flowing to the community group on the heels of a fall full of embarrassments for it. But so you don't have to read the entire thing from there, try here Today, U.S. District Judge Nina Gershon granted a preliminary injunction against the United States for unconstitutionally withholding funds from ACORN. In its decision, the court found that there is a likelihood the plaintiffs will be able to show that Congress’ targeted defunding of ACORN violates the Constitution’s prohibition against Bills of Attainder , legislative acts which single out a specific person or group for punishment. The Court’s ruling stated, “The plaintiffs have raised a fundamental issue of separation of powers. They have been singled out by Congress for puni...

OOPS......I Don't Think They Meant To Say What They Said

Image
Yeah, I don't expect this to be reported on the Chyron troubled propaganda network anytime soon. Because it certainly would be too painful to bear . An independent report examining the undercover videos filmed in offices of the national anti-poverty group ACORN states the employees portrayed in the videos did not engage in any illegal activity. The report by former Massachusetts Attorney General Scott Harshbarger calls for the organization to take nine steps to strengthen its management and oversight structures as part of a "roadmap for reform and renewal" in order to regain public trust shaken by the video controversy. "The report is part vindication, part constructive criticism and 100% roadmap to the future," ACORN CEO Bertha Lewis said. The news is oh so devastating that it lead to Big Government, the ones who have manufactured the rise of "ACORN is a moral evil" sentiment with these videos from the clown wannabe pimp and his prostitute, to conced...

Their Newest Mascot

You just can't even call them heroes anymore , because they are just so stupid : Doesn't know his laws he says. The right's mascots that they champion ladies and gentlemen.

Leak, Leak, Leak, Leak, Leak

Image
But will the plumbers (corporate media) even damn notice (as it is easily too late by now since funding has been stripped ) the continued leaks ? On the heels of ACORN filing a lawsuit against conservative activists Hannah Giles, James O'Keefe, and Breitbart.com LLC, Sean Hannity, Andrew Breitbart, HotAir.com's Allahpundit, and NewsBusters have offered to -- in the words of Hannity -- "put out the word" to "help" Giles and O'Keefe raise money for their legal defense. Conservative media figures -- led by Glenn Beck -- helped Breitbart strategically release and aggressively promote the undercover videos that sparked ACORN's lawsuit. Or will they even damn care is the better question? Because they sure as hell know. But unsurprisingly, they seem not to be bothered . The drips continue. Meanwhile, O'Keefe and his accomplice join the ranks of right-wing heroes. Boy, I bet they are certainly proud with themselves.

Drip, Drip, Drip, Drip, Drip

Shocking, isn't it On September 23, Los Angeles Times media critic James Rainey reported that ACORN official Lavelle Stewart "told me this week" that when conservative videographers James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles came to Stewart's ACORN office in Los Angeles disguised as a pimp and prostitute, Stewart "tried to get the 'prostitute,' who claimed she had been beaten by her pimp, to go to a women's center." Stewart's reported statement and a police report filed by officials at ACORN's Philadelphia office undermine O'Keefe's and Giles' claims that they were never rebuffed at any of the ACORN offices they visited, and the videographers have yet to release the Los Angeles and Philadelphia videos. Leak, leak, leak, leak, leak. I wish Fixed would report this leaking and all.
