If Okeefe and Giles had limited the issues discussed to tax evasion, prostitution and drugs, lots of people would say so what, all that should be legal anyway. They had to bring in the child prostitution angle to make it shocking in todays world.

Geez, we have tax evaders running the IRS/Treasury and writing our tax laws, ..... I could go on but won't.

Far Left Mouthpiece Marc Lamont Hill Smears O'Keefe & Giles on O'Reilly... Big Government Responds

This was posted at Big Government earlier today--

Far Left mouthpiece Marc Lamont Hill told Bill O'Reilly that Big Government investigative reporters James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles went to "hundreds of ACORN offices" before they were able to catch "low level" ACORN workers for their damning reports on the scandal-plagued leftist organization. When asked how he knew this Hill told O'Reilly that, "They admitted it."

This is not true.
See Big Government's response to these false accusations here.

>>>>>>>>>>>O'Keefe and Hannah Giles did not go to “hundreds of ACORN offices” to acquire material for this project. They went to the four offices that were shown in the series of videos. Also, at no time did O’Keefe, Giles or any representative of Big Government give such a statement to the press or to anyone.
The accusations by Marc Lamont Hill are completely false.<<<<<<<<<<<

Big Government contacted The O'Reilly Factor and Marc Lamont Hill.
If there are any updates I will post them both at Gateway Pundit.

Personally I'm hoping Hill will be frogmarched from the set.
