What Sort of Scum Does ACORN Hire?

What Sort of Scum Does ACORN Hire?

You read news stories like this, and you find yourself asking, "What sort of depraved monsters does ACORN hire?" From September 11, 2009 FoxNews:

Two more ACORN officials were fired Friday after a second video surfaced showing staffers in the community organizers' Washington office offering to help a man and woman posing as a pimp and prostitute acquire illegal home loans that would help them set up a brothel.

The firings came less than 24 hours after another pair of ACORN officials from the group's Baltimore office were canned for instructing the "pimp" and "prostitute" how to falsify tax forms and seek illegal benefits for 13 "very young" girls from El Salvador that pair said they wanted to import to work as child prostitutes.

Both of the encounters were videotaped on a hidden camera wielded by 25-year-old independent filmmaker James O'Keefe, posing as the pimp — tapes that have ignited calls for investigations of ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

The United States Census Director has sent a letter to the National Headquarters of ACORN notifying the group that it will no longer help work on the 2010 census.

The group's leaders said Friday they were "appalled and angry" at what their staffers had done, but insisted the videos were part of a political "smear" campaign and not representative of the institution as a whole.

If one ACORN office had people this amoral working in it, I suppose that I could agree that this was a bizarre bit of bad luck on ACORN's part. But two offices? I mean, asking for ACORN's help in buying a house so that they can set up a brothel with illegal alien child prostitutes? How sick are the people that ACORN hires? Is there anything that people like this wouldn't do? And in light of ACORN's long history of vote fraud--well, I can see why Obama was ACORN's attorney: Mr. "Ends Justifies the Means" himself.

UPDATE: And here's some video of one of the discussions:



It is damning. The "pimp" describes them as "very young" at one point, and at another point, says that they are "like...15" and therefore won't be getting IDs or filing tax returns.

UPDATE 2: A reader tells me that the answer to the question comes from Star Wars:

"Mos Eisley spaceport: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy."
