To hear it from the BeckHannityLimbaugh echo chamber, ACORN and all of its employees should be hauled out of their offices, tarred, feathered and run out of town on a rail. Or worse.
All this righteous bloviating because in a couple of cities a pair of white bread, right wing "instigative reporters" managed to fool some folks at ACORN into believing they were a pimp and his ho', and were looking for help dodging taxes. And a couple of really dumb fucks at ACORN went along with the Halloween outfits and actually tried to help them.
OK, so some folks at ACORN screwed up. And some folks got fired for their stupidity. And FAUX news got the exclusive story.
And Congress cuts ACORN's funding, and the right wing moans in orgasmic ecstasy.
But what I don't understand is why this broad brush destruction of ACORN isn't practiced on some of our other established institutions when its discovered that a few of their members stray off the reservation.
Like the CHURCH!
Compared to the Catholic Church, ACORN's transgressions weren't even misdemeanors. And the followers of the Pope aren't alone in their financial, societal and sexual transgressions. Every friggin' one of the thousands of invisible cloud being pushing denominations across this country has screwed someone, literally and figuratively, but they go merrily on their way.
If the right wing wants to really put the screws to the groups that are fucking over America, maybe it ought to look at the wealth sheltering asshole at the front of their church. Chances are he/she has stolen more on any given day of worship than ACORN could in a year.
