I find myself doubting the right wing's ability to issue a mia culpa here after their inappropriate and rampant demonization of this organization.

Most interesting was this finding -

A comparison of the publicly available transcripts to the released videos confirms that large portions of the original video have been omitted from the released versions."



Here is a copy of the full report, which very much lays out a need for ACORN to institute a number of reforms, which ACORN has gladly accepted.

I would like to take Hannah Giles out for sushi then bang the everliving **** out of her.

Is "taking her out for sushi" some kind of euphemism?

Nah I just like sushi. I think I'd enjoy her's too. I hear she studies Jiu Jitsu at a Gracie academy. I wouldn't try to get out of her guard, to tell you one thing.

It is surely no "exoneration" - it's nothing we didn't know.

Woo a few months old information repackaged to try to make a case now for information dillution since there is less resistance. Then years from now liberals can believe it was "all debunked" and carry on without having to think too hard.

Monty - from your link:

"While some of the advice and counsel given by ACORN employees and volunteers was clearly inappropriate and unprofessional, we did not find a pattern of intentional, illegal conduct by ACORN staff; in fact, there is no evidence that action, illegal or otherwise, was taken by any ACORN employee on behalf of the videographers."

That's exonerated to you? They are a bunch of shmucks dancing the line of legality.

These guys are tools, and you know it. Come on, man, there's lots of liberal organizations out there that you can get behind - it's ok to let ACORN go.
