Bring It On
In the above video the ACORN outers, Hanna Giles and James O'Keefe, say about potential suits from ACORN, "Bring It On". Well ACORN has brought it on. Community activist group ACORN is suing the makers of a hidden-camera video that showed employees of its Baltimore office giving tax advice to a man posing as a pimp and a woman posing as a prostitute.This has got to be the dumbest political move since Bill Clinton said, "I did not have sex with that woman." So what does Althouse think? She says: Glenn Reynolds is pretty sure ACORN is falling into a trap.I have heard lots of folks in comments to this story offering to donate to a legal defense fund. It is almost as if ACORN wanted to keep this story alive. As to keeping the story alive? I was already getting tired of it and hadn't planned to write anything further since the story had served its purpose. It got the Census Bureau to sever ties with ACORN. H/T Instapundit who thinks as Althouse pointed out, "I'M PRETTY SURE THEY'RE FALLING INTO A TRAP". Yes they are. Click on the Instapundit link for more.

I believe part of the criminal mindset is the conviction that you'll never get caught, or if you do you can brazen your way out of it. Have you noticed how many times criminals are outraged at the cops or journalists that bring them down, as though they somehow cheated?
So ACORN still has some humiliation to go through before the reach the stage where "I would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for those meddling kids."
