CNN lies about ACORN 54 times which is certainly better than, say, a billion.
What I really want an ACORN critic to do is to explain this hypothetical (I'm such a law student): most campaigns and party organizations register voters on their own as well. Suppose that the Smith County Republican Party gets a bunch of voter registrations, and Voter X gives them a form which bears the name "Brad Pitt". Legally, they cannot discard the form. They cannot simply hold onto the form until after the election, particularly if Mr. Pitt is actually a real voter. If Mr. Pitt brought in his friends Shiloh, Maddox, Zahara, Pax, Knox and Vivienne Pitt who all also registered, snickering and high-fiving the whole time, and they filled out the forms to completion, what is it that the Smith County GOP could do that would prevent them from becoming their county's ACORN?
The readers of People Magazine demand an answer.
