Laugh, clown, laugh.

Even high school kids can defend their position....its a shame you cant man up.

Seriously, dude. What are you afraid of? If I am always wrong as you suggest, it should be easy for you to provide the facts to prove it....not opinions of partisan columnists, but facts that support your position.

Don't yawn while eating popcorn, you'll choke on a kernel.

Thanks Mom.

Point taken.

I have to give it to the lady, Reflux does like to invoke some manhood thingy. Pretty funny.

The GAO released its report yesterday that reviewed ACORN's federal funding at the request of the ACORN-bashing members of Congress and found no evidence of fraud, lax oversight or misuse of federal funds.

The GAO also conducted a comprehensive review of all criminal investigations of ACORN by the Department of Justice and federal Inspector General’s since 2005. The report said that of six FBI investigations into ACORN-related voter fraud all had been dropped because of lack of evidence. Only cases against individuals working for ACORN were prosecuted....and ACORN provided information to local election officials that helped initiate prosecutions against their employees who may have been involved in voter registration fraud.”

The agency also found the Federal Election Commission had closed all investigations into voter fraud by the group.

GAO report

Looks to me like ACORN did nothing criminal or even unethical, on the grant side or the political/voter registration side...despite all the presumption of guilt bandied about by its political enemies.

Well of course, dude.....make it all about me. A bit transparent or shallow, dont you think?

But hey, a great way to avoid discussing the topic at hand....whether its ACORN, the Voting Rights Act, illegal immigration....

Lusby, Maryland (CNN) -- A conservative activist known for making undercover videos plotted to embarrass a CNN correspondent by recording a meeting on hidden cameras aboard a floating "palace of pleasure" and making sexually suggestive comments, e-mails and a planning document show.

James O'Keefe, best known for hitting the community organizing group ACORN with an undercover video sting, hoped to get CNN Investigative Correspondent Abbie Boudreau onto a boat filled with sexually explicit props and then record the session, those documents show.

The plan apparently was thwarted after Boudreau was warned minutes before it was supposed to happen.

"I never intended to become part of the story," Boudreau said. "But things suddenly took a very strange turn."

O'Keefe is best known for making a series of undercover videos inside ACORN offices around the country in 2009. The 40-year-old liberal group was crippled by scandal after O'Keefe and fellow activist Hannah Giles allegedly solicited advice from ACORN workers on setting up a brothel and evading taxes.

The videos led to some of the employees being fired and contributed to the disbanding of ACORN, which advocated for low- and middle-income and worked to register voters.

But prosecutors in New York and California eventually found no evidence of wrongdoing by the group, and the California probe found the videos had been heavily and selectively edited.

O'Keefe's next big splash ended with his arrest after he taped associates entering Louisiana Sen. Mary Landrieu's office in New Orleans posing as telephone repairmen. He ended up pleading guilty to a misdemeanor charge of entering a federal office under false pretenses and is now on probation.

The gig is up. When is he gonna realize it?
