The publicity folks for ACORN sure have been making a mess of things.....one day saying no other office did what DC did, followed by 4 other offices shown doing the same things. Each day, while the tapes were coming out, ACORN had to change their story.
Now comes the story that ACORN is suing Hannah Giles, James O'Keefe, and Andrew Breitbart for their recording and showing their visit to ACORN's Maryland office. For those interested, a donation site for Hannah's def... Read Full Story
