Just when you thought it was safe to visit an ACORN office again, yet another video was released this week at BigGovernment.com. James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles, the young conservative activists who posed as a pimp and prostitute in order to get ACORN’s advice on tax evasion and other illegal activities, released a sixth video putting the lie to the organization’s claim to have “thrown out” the pair from its Philadelphia office. The same employee who claimed she showed them the door is on camera in the newest video giving them the same advice on illegal activities that they received at five other ACORN offices — and the conversation lasted for 32 minutes.
The audio is frequently muted because of ACORN’s legal action against O’Keefe and Giles, but Andrew Breitbart, whose BigGovernment.com Web site first aired the videos, has challenged ACORN to allow him to play the full audio. O’Keefe said, “We call upon ACORN to state publicly now that it has no objection to the public release of any of its employees’ oral statements to us. If they are interested in the truth, why wouldn’t they do so?” Furthermore, O’Keefe asks, “Why did the Philadelphia press report that we were kicked out? Will those reporters now print corrections? [Will the] Washington Post print a second correction?” Don’t hold your breath.
