I'm sure there is fraud. It's a not-for-profit agency that is paying barely trained people minimum wage. I'm sure similar things are happening at any number of agencies. Am I excusing the fraud? Of course not. But I'm also not damning the entire agency for the actions of the lowest level employees. Cutting ACORN's funding would be far more damaging and far-reaching than the petty fraud your alleging goes on

No it won't - because people like you who see the wonderful work ACORN does in communites will take out their checkbook and fund them. You HAVE written them a check this week due to their funds being cut, right?
I see, so your defense of ACORN is:
1) The workers aren't paid enough.
2) The workers aren't trained enough to know that 13 year-old-sex slaves is an illegal business and should not be funded by federal housing grants.
3) Everybody else is doing it, so why can't ACORN.
4) Felony tax evation and mortgage fraud for the purposes of illegal sex trade operations is petty fraud.
Alrighty then, I can't argue with that. I'm done.
