It's ABOUT time CBS.... You first report on Pelosi calling us Nazi's and mobsters. Now we're racists. Give me a break. We are concerned American citizens who need people like you to do your jobs and report on this tax fraud, child prostitution, voter fraud and brothels. Are tax dollars are hard at work. Thanks a lot for keeping us informed.

It's funny how liberals get all their news from each other. If it didn't get reported in the NY Times it didn't happen. But here we get to the real heart of the liberal. They care more about protecting an institution that has no problem with child prostitution than prosecuting it. No surprise there.

The point is that CBS, NBC, ABC, MSNBC waited until this got out of control before they reported on it. The fact that Democrats didn't ask for an accounting of this means that they are complacent in the matter. Just like when Rep. Jefferson from LA should have been investigated for corruption, the Dems did nothing. Like now, Charlie Rangel should be investigated for his tax related problems. The Dems have no leg to stand on when it comes to not standing up for the people they should be protecting, the taxpayers. There have been issues about ACORN but no one would investigate. It took two amateurs to do so and they showed up everyone.

CBS News...this just in...Michael Jackson is still dead...breaking news at 10:00! Oh wait...Kanye dissed Taylor...we (CBS News?) will get to the bottom of this story if it takes us 3 weeks. We will cry racism, no wait, it's the other way around this time, we can't cry racism.

What a joke of a so called news organization!

Acorn may not have started out being what it has become, but clearly all taxpayer funding must stop. Their tactics are no different than organized mob action. These videos and the other voter fraud investigations presumably still going on merely underscored that these low-life thugs have corrupted the original intent. They're criminals and I hope they get their day in court and are truly exposed for what they have become. The fact that the president was so closely allied with them and has remained silent on these disturbing charges suggests he condones their criminal conduct and is complicit with it.

by the way, finally CBS decided to picked up this story...and yes, the cable news, Foxnews, carried this story for a long while before it made it to CBS. At least, the story is getting out, because this is about what's right period. The other networks really need to look at the issues that most American's want to hear about. That's why Foxnews is so popular, but regardless of cable news, network news, democrat, or republican, if something is corrupt it needs attention.

come on? Who CARES about Republican or Democrat, cables news or etc...ACORN needs to be looked into for other possible corruption ties. Get off the partisan high horse and look at what's best for the people, especially those who ACORN is supposed to be helping. I mean, really, a bad apple is a bad apple regardless of what tree it fell off. If something illegal, corrupt, or otherwise, it needs to be looked into.
