So the major media ignores another story, further destroying their credibility... Now that FOUR tapes have come out from all over the country. NOW they are starting to talk about it...
 
The congress has already passed legislation to start limiting SOME of their income from the government. (not all?... are you kidding me..., Oh, and 7 of your lovely democrates voted against this. Guess they like the business practices shown...)
 
But, even the comedian on a comedy channel is calling out the lack of guts to go out and do their job by showing what is really going on...
 
 
It took a couple of kids to bust this thing wide open...
 
 
Hysterical on so many levels.

nope, just the stuff you guys post... And it hasn't impressed me. But, I saw this online and almost busted a gut.
 
That is some funny stuff right there... Too bad ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN ignored it for so long... I wondered how many tapes would have to come out before they started covering it.
 
Turns out it was 4 tapes... I wonder how many are still to be released.

Haha, you accuse others of only paying attention when it fits their argument. You should find a way to go back and watch his show in the Bush era. I'm not saying theres not currupt douchebags now, but the stuff he would talk about that other media outlets just downplayed is ridiculous. Colbert is much the same sometimes. It's sad when you get more real news from a comedian than the news.

Which is why Drew Curtis has a best-selling book out there.

Seriously though, can all the "Acorn is a wonderful organization that can do no wrong!" crowd eat some humble pie now?

ACORN was dropped by the Census bureau and they are not accepting "new intakes' until they conduct an investigation.

The Daily Show has always been an equal opportunity comedy show.  They make their money from making jokes, not from pushing political views.

Gee, I wonder who is doing all the digging to find all these incriminating videos. Certainly not reporters.

It is interesting, the level of credibility that the young and the left give this comedian. Kinda like the SNL era of Al Franken. Where the Jon Stewart show classifies itself to many as the same infotainment that the more prominant right shows fall into. For example:
Rush, is also a infotainment artist and molds his show and information followed as per his audiance, yet he is dismissed by the left for the same reasons that we must accept Jon Stewart from.

Who's giving Jon Stewart credibility? He has a comedy show, we all know that. His show is 100% entertainment, based on current events, as it always has been. So yes he mentions current events and we are made aware of them, but his take on them are purely comedic and satiristic. He's not out there trying to convert idiots to his way of thinking. He exposes and mocks stupidity in the system, as a joke.

OS, once again the things going on in your head and reality are two very different things.
