Etc. Etc. Etc. ad nauseum

Using the word "caught" implies that ACORN is doing something
wrong. Trying to
brand ACORN with the mis-steps of its workers is misleading at best. ANd
downright dishonest in fact.

Certainly _some_ ACORN workers turned in bogus forms and were paid for those
forms by ACORN - who then turned them in as the law requires. But, Fitzgerald
has only recently begun acknowledging that ACORN was complying with the law on
this ... and ignoring that it was ACORN which was victimised by crooked
canvassers, not ACORN trying to victimise the "system".

Any way a reasonable person looks at it such claims are both disingenuous and
dishonest.

I can see that you are likely to try to stretch this into a series such as you
had with Bob Klahn over your supposed misunderstanding of whether John McCain
was at fault and/or lied about driving his aeroplane into the ocean.

I will not engage in such a protracted discussion with you.
