San Diego and ACORN… Illegal Smuggling of Girls Over Mexican Border, More Child Prostitution Corruption Exposed
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on September 17, 2009
San Diego, California... beautiful beaches, and the latest locale for the ACORN child prostitution scandal to unfold
And now, the newest damning videos made by undercover filmmaker James O’Keefe… exposing corruption of ACORN in San Diego, California. O’Keefe and Hannah Giles again posed as a pimp and a prostitute. In San Diego, it goes beyond whore-house housing loans and tax evasion… now, they are getting assistance from ACORN in the actual smuggling of the underage girls into America over the Mexico border. With DHS’s lack of interest in securing our nation’s southern borders, this would be fairly easy to accomplish, I’m guessing.
James O’Keefe, Big Government: ACORN Video: Prostitution Scandal in San Diego, CA:
With 70 miles of stunning beaches and picture-perfect weather all year round, having fun during the summer in San Diego doesn’t require a lot of money…
ACORN San Diego Child Prostitution Smuggling – Part I
ACORN San Diego Child Prostitution Smuggling – Part II
Count ‘em off: Baltimore, Washington DC, New York City, San Bernardino, San Diego. Five major US cities.
Hard to swallow ACORN’s assertions that James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles uncovered “isolated bad apples” and that this is a phony right-wing smear attack. The whole despicable apple cart is rotten. Rotten to the core.
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has called for an investigation of ACORN in his state. At the time, this San Diego exposé had not yet been released.
Raising the stakes involved in the scandal surrounding the anti-poverty group ACORN, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is urging a “full investigation” by California Attorney General Jerry Brown into ACORN’s California activities.
The governor sent a letter Wednesday to Brown, referring to “news stories regarding the ACORN organization that have concerned me greatly.”
ACORN stands for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. The group has come under fire after employees were caught on tape giving tax advice to conservative operatives posing as prostitutes and pimps.
The most recent video surfaced this week in San Bernardino and has been used extensively by Fox News and conservative Web sites.
“You can hear on the tape, the ACORN worker offering advice as to how to lie, how to claim that the house is a business, not a brothel,” KTKZ talk show host Eric Hogue said Wednesday on his radio broadcast in Sacramento.
Callers weighed in, one saying, “It just makes me sick.”
At ACORN’s Sacramento offices on Florin Road, a worker who answered the door said she couldn’t answer questions. Ronald Coleman, ACORN’s legislative director in Sacramento, later confirmed that tax and mortgage services were being suspended for now.

From Examiner.com, ACORN scandal explodes, organization suspends operations:
BigGovernment.com is reporting several new developments in the ACORN scandal. The floodgates were opened on several fronts Wednesday. Glenn Beck, radio show host and the host of an afternoon program on the Fox News Channel has been focusing on the troubled activist group and calling for investigations into questionable, and possibly criminal activities, for months.
On Wednesday the second part of a video filmed at the San Bernardino, CA ACORN office was released, and a new video is said to be said to be on the way. Also on Wednesday a new investigation was opened in New York, and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has called for an investigation in California. Investigations are already underway in at least 12 states involving voter fraud and other allegations of criminal activity.
A fifth hidden camera video, filmed at ACORN’s San Diego office is set to be released late Wednesday night on the BigGovernment.com website, reportedly showing an employee advising filmmmaker James O’Keefe advice on how to best smuggle underage girls into the U.S. from Mexico for the purpose of prostitution.
O’Keefe and Hannah Giles have posed as a pimp and prostitute at several ACORN offices and asked for advice on everything from how to avoid paying taxes to how to hide the fact that they were going to be employing girls as young as 12 years old as prostitutes. O’Keefe and Giles had told ACORN employees the girls were to be illegally smuggled into the U.S. from El Salvador. In every instance the ACORN employees freely offered advice to O’Keefe and Giles.
ACORN had previously said that that O’Keefe and Giles were only successful at one office, in Baltimore, where the first video to be released was filmed. ACORN said the pair had been thrown out of other offices and the police were called in subsequent attempts. So far that has proven not to be true and ACORN appears to be backing off of that claim, and the threat of a lawsuit against O’Keefe, Giles, and Fox News…
New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo announced on Wednesday the he was opening an investigation into ACORN’s activities in that state. Cuomo wants to know if grants given to the group to be used for tax preparation ans loan counseling were spent as intended…
Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty on Wednesday ordered a review of the ACORN and also ordered suspension of of any public contracts with the organization. ACORN Kevin Whelan, the deputy political director at ACORN, said ACORN has no contracts that would be affected in Minnesota. Whelan also said Pawlenty’s move “seems like it’s motivated by politics or publicity.”
Michelle Malkin’s take… Triple-snort-worthy: White House “distances” itself from ACORN:
Good thing I wasn’t drinking coffee when I read the Politico headline about Team Obama trying to run away from ACORN:
“W.H. distances from activist group”
Choking. Up. With. Laughter.
Barack Obama can no more disown ACORN than he could disown his own shadow.
He IS ACORN. And ACORN is him…
I’m under the impression that this may conclude the child prostitution/tax fraud ACORN scandal videos from O’Keefe/Giles at Andrew Breitbart’s Big Government for a bit. But maybe not.
At this point, if O’Keefe and Giles exposed ACORN corruption in all 50 states, I would NOT be surprised. No word yet if Pres. Obama has responded to the letter the GOP sent him this week about severing all funding to ACORN, including the multi-billion-dollar funding earmark in the taxpayer-funded stimulus/porkulus bill.
Any bets on whether or not clueless left-winger ABC News anchor Charlie Gibson knows about the ACORN scandal by now?

When do you think Obama will realize that his day is done ?
Why do you think he surrounded himself with czars, that can and will override congress ?
What will it take to take our Country back from this marxist menace?
When he looks in the mirror he sees a dictator, I submit at this point he is only a wanna be dictator.
Watching this unfold is fascinating, if not terrifying.
Obama HATES THIS COUNTRY, and is bound and determined to bring it to it’s knees.
God help us !
It must be so comforting to be so sure of yourself.
