Update! Part 2 added! This is only part 1 of the video, part 2 is expected i think later today.

O’Keefe and Giles are seen speaking with Conway-Russell, but audio portions of the video are missing or edited in some portions. O’Keefe is heard mentioning he doesn’t “want to get in trouble with authorities,” and he mentions individuals will be frequently coming in and out of the building they hoped to secure, an apparent reference to the purported prostitution business to operate there. Clips of news reports featuring Conway-Russell and ACORN’s chief executive, Bertha Lewis, claiming the pair were kicked out of the office were then shown.

On Tuesday, Oct 6th, Caldwell has served ACORN 2nd Subpoena.

Bertha Lewis begging people to “tweet” for ACORN
Damage Control at its finest. According to BigGovernment, an in ad today in the Washington Post, ACORN CEO Bertha Lewis is looking for a “social media organizer” to take to the Web and do some damage control on the Twitter front. Duties include:
Obama on George Stephanopoulos when asked about APORN (err) ACORN “it’s not really something I’ve followed closely” and doesn’t commit to cutting off federal funding!
Not all of the discussion on the Sunday talk shows that coward Obama appeared on where regarding ObamaCARE. During the Stephanopoulos interview on ABC the topic of Acorn, and their child prostitution company came up (briefly). ACORN of course received over $800,000 from Obama during his presidential campaign, has received over $54 from the government over the last 10 years or so, and was set to receive about $8.5 BILLION from the stimulus package this year. Obama also was an attorney for ACORN during the ’90s. Obama’s first big “community organizer” jobs involved ACORN in 1992. He has been working along side ACORN since before he became an elected official. Obama also trained ACORN employees. Theres also a famous soundbite of him now telling Acorn how they “will have a seat at the table” once he got electected. Yet somehow, he hasn’t followed the story closely. Well, if he watches ABC, CBS,NBC, or CNN, that actually might be believable since they hardly even mentioned it to begin with. Here’s a transcript of the interview via Gateway Pundit:
