But I thought that they did nothing wrong. You know, it was all fun and games. And they are deeply disturbed about losing their federal cash cow.

Yeah, I'm sure the training will consist of "keep your mouths shut, especially if you think you're being video taped.: :laughing:

[TheTaoOfBill]

This is exactly what I wanted to see them do. Good on ACORN. And shame on congress for reacting before an official investigation took place. (And no...ACORN's investigation is not an official one)

genericstamp!genericstamp!genericstamp!

[hobbitt]

Training sessions will be held at Florida golf courses, where other innocent folks are out looking for "the real murderer."

[cindyb]

I see ACORN is hoping they can fend off a full on Congressional investigation.
I sure hope it doesn't work.

[Kbentleyis]

but, but, didn't they just "punk" FOX news? hummmm Why change if there is no problems.

Trying to get out of being fully investigated?

[TheTaoOfBill]

And what would have been wrong with keeping your mouth shut in this situation. That would have been the professional thing to do if someone posing as a pimp and prostitute asked these sorts of questions. Even if the lady was telling the truth and knew they were fakes she should have kept her mouth shut and told them she couldn't help them.

Though you were sarcastic I think that's the exact kind of training ACORN needs to give to it's employees.

In my spare time I work for kgb, the question answering service.

A lot of times we get questions asking "How do I smoke crack" and we are trained to say "While kgb_ always tries to impress you with our answers we choose not to answer this one. No charge"

This seems to be a problem with many of the anti ACORN people. Distinguishing the policies of ACORN itself with the policies of individual rogue employees that exist in all major organizations. The woman in the video claims she was joking but ACORN still fired her because she acted unprofessionally.

[BillDemo]

Oh sure... I believe ACORN when they say they're going to make changes.
ACORN have always been trustworthy, haven't they? :rolleyes:

Just like that time, they caught the founder's brother embezzling 1 million dollars... and they kept it a secret, covered it up and protected him from prosecution....:rotfl:

Will ACORN stop encouraging people to squat in vacant properties?
Will ACORN stop defending people who squat in foreclosed homes?
Will ACORN stop campaigning for Democrats?
Will ACORN stop forcing banks to loan money to people who can't pay it back?
Will ACORN give its employees proper training?
Will ACORN take responsibility for wrongdoing by their employees?

Too bad Tony Rezko didn't have you on his jury.

Isn't that brother over at the SEIU now? Another BFF of Obama.

I realize that reading between the lines is difficult on the net but I said this sarcastically meaning that even though we (ACORN) know unscrupulous stuff does go on behind the scenes in ACORN, when interviewed by outsiders, keep your mouth shut! Don't let them know we do dishonest stuff!
