The current chief organizer of ACORN, who was up to her eyeballs in the $1 million embezzlement scandal at the embattled radical leftist group, lied and lied and lied some more in an appearance at the National Press Club yesterday.
The contemptible Bertha Lewis, who now prefers to call herself “CEO” of ACORN, gave a “grand [...]
Those irony-deficient “senior fellows” at Media Matters are at it again. Today they’re pretending to be outraged by the Washington Time’s “fabricated” accusations of “racism” — which is a little like Vice President Joe Biden accusing someone of plagiarism.
“Did the WashTimes fabricate its latest ACORN attack?,” they ask readers this morning, helpfully answering: “Yep”.

On his TV show, Glenn Beck looked at the role that former ACORN official Deepak Bhargava is playing in influencing the Obama administration.
Bhargava is executive director of the radical left-wing community organizing group, the Center for Community Change (CCC). Founded in 1968, the group is dedicated to defending welfare entitlements and leftist anti-poverty programs.

Aug. 17: ACORN staffer Tresa Kaelke advises a ‘pimp’ and ‘prostitute’ during an undercover taping by two filmmakers.
LAS VEGAS — When ACORN took to Las Vegas and started playing “Blackjack” and “21,” the activist group was making a [...]
Poor Barack Obama. During the President’s recent Sunday morning TV interview circuit, ABC’s George Stephanopoulos was the only questioner ill-mannered enough to ask “The One” a substantive question about the recent House and Senate votes to cut off all federal funding to Obama’s former employer, scandal-plagued ACORN. In response, our ever-genial President politely told the pesky Stephanopoulos [...]
Someone really should make a game of Rachel Maddow Bingo. Take her top fifty most over-used, clichéd words or phrases, choose twenty-four (the middle space, unlike government health care, really is free), and make a Bingo board. First to get five in a row wins. Bonus points if you make a bingo off of one [...]
Repeating opinions he’s expressed on his TV and radio shows, commentator Glenn Beck told the Washington Times that the supposedly independent review panel ACORN has established to recommend reforms to the group is a sham.
“I think this whole thing is bogus,” Beck told the newspaper’s morning radio show, “America’s Morning News.”
“They moved too fast, too quietly. The president [...]
Imagine this scene, one that we imagine is familiar to many readers: you’ve just done something of which your parents do not approve. Perhaps you’ve tracked mud into the house. Perhaps you were playing ball indoors and smashed a prize lamp. Your parents scold you, preparing to hand down their discipline sentence. “But,” you say, [...]
In recent weeks, Glenn Beck has elevated political/news television to an entirely new level. Without fealty to any particular party, he is shining a light into the dark corners of a political cesspool that has been hidden for too long. He is taking the esoteric and making it accessible; taking the complex and making it [...]
Rachel Maddow’s dizzying intellect was on display Thursday night. By dizzying of course we mean “spinning so fast she can’t see straight.” Maddow has chosen defending ACORN as a perhaps-not-so-unlikely hill to die on. Thursday night, she vehemently defended ACORN, calling them a “trumped-up boogieman” and that ACORN “has been caricatured by people, like Congressman [...]
Glenn Beck advised his TV audience Wednesday not to hold their breath waiting for Congress to launch a serious investigation into the activities of the left-wing crime syndicate ACORN.
He noted that House Judiciary Committee chairman John Conyers (D-Mich.) and House Financial Services Committee chairman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) asked the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service to research [...]
