The BRAD BLOG : Giles Admits O'Keefe, Breitbart ACORN 'Pimp' Story was a Lie: 'That Was B-Roll, Purely B-Roll'
Giles Admits O'Keefe, Breitbart ACORN 'Pimp' Story was a Lie: 'That Was B-Roll, Purely B-Roll'
Speaking to Washington Independent reporter David Weigel today at CPAC, Hannah Giles, who posed as a prostitute in James O'Keefe and Andrew Breitbart's infamous, highly-doctored, heavily-overdubbed, secretly-taped, ACORN hit videos, confirms what we've been reporting for several weeks here: O'Keefe never dressed as a pimp in the offices of ACORN.
Reports Weigel today [emphasis added]:
I asked Giles about a criticism that’s often been leveled against them — that they hyped up the video by wearing outrageous clothes in promotional materials and the videos’ introductions that they didn’t wear in the actual stings.
“We never claimed that he went in with a pimp costume,” said Giles. “That was b-roll. It was purely b-roll. He was a pimp, I was a prostitute, and we were walking in front of government buildings to show how the government was whoring out the American people.”
"B-roll" refers to footage shot separately and later inserted during editing, as frequently seen in movies and television. E.g., an overhead helicopter shot of Las Vegas, used to establish where the scene takes place, before cutting to the interior of a casino where the main character is seen playing cards at a table.
Giles' admission is in stark contrast to:
O'Keefe's knowingly deceptive appearances on Fox "News" "dressed exactly in the same outfit that he wore in these ACORN offices up and down the Eastern Seaboard";
Breitbart's out-and-out lies in his own 9/21/09 column to help promote the videos by claiming they show O'Keefe and Giles "going to the Baltimore offices of ACORN ... dressed as a pimp and a prostitute and asking for - and getting - help for various illegal activities"
Next time you want to respond to a story edthe$ynic....try reading the link Okay....you won't look like a total moron. The report was that Media Matters stated that ACORN called the police on the pimp and the hooker. Well that was the lie, because ACORN never did. Try reading and comprehending 101 before you finish school.
Geeze your stupid.
It was then that the ACORN official, Keith Crosby, first contacted the police.
The economy was fantastic under Pres. Bush. The democrats fucked it up, as usual.
Cut your s#!t Bodegga...Bush teared down the entire economy single-handedly with his Regime...I mean Administration.
A couple decades before that Reagan began with the MASSIVE spending.
Lets get real here.

From your own link:
It was then that the ACORN official, Keith Crosby, first contacted the police.
Nice backtrack, after lying about ACORN not calling the police, you split hairs over who FROM ACORN called the police. Not only that, you have only the word of proven liars and frauds as to what might have been said in the office.Media Matters cites the police report as evidence that Russell asked them to leave, and that she called the police after the filmmakers asked suspicious questions. Another lie. Russell didnt call the police while they were there, and in fact didnt call the police at all. Rather, after they had already left, she called an ACORN official to ask why they had been referred to her office. It was then that the ACORN official, Keith Crosby, first contacted the police. He filed a false police report, apparently claiming an emergency because the filmmakers were causing a verbal disturbance with employees of ACORN. But Crosby knew that the filmmakers had already left and the report notes that the police advised him of this fact he obviously knew and Russell never asserted there was a verbal disturbance even when they were there. So the filmmakers never lied about anything. Media Matters lied, and ACORN committed a crime by filing a false police report.
edthe$ynic....try reading and quit looking a the pictures.

I'm done with you on this. Say what you want but Media Matters wasn't reporting what really happened......when they really should be.
Poll: George W. Bush still blamed for economy - Andy Barr - POLITICO.com
Former President George W. Bush gets more blame for the country’s economic troubles than his successor or the Democrats who control Congress, according to a Harris poll out Wednesday.
Thirty-one percent of the 2,344 adults surveyed said Bush deserves the most blame for a rough economy, leading the second-place Wall Street by 6 percentage points.
Democrats in Congress were blamed by 16 percent of those polled, while President Barack Obama was blamed by 14 percent. Republicans in Congress were blamed by 9 percent of respondents, and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke was blamed by 4 percent.
A majority of Democrats — 53 percent — blamed Bush for the economy. Republicans, meanwhile, blamed Democrats in Congress more than Obama.
“The memory of President George W. Bush and the state of the economy he left as part of his legacy still sticks in the craw of Americans,” wrote pollster Louis Harris in his analysis.
Republicans were also split when asked to identify the most powerful figure in the GOP.
Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney rated highest with 14 percent, but he was swamped by the 44 percent of respondents who were either “not sure” or would have picked someone other than the eight Republicans listed.
Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin finished second among Republicans with 13 percent. She was trailed by Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, former Vice President Dick Cheney, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, House Minority Leader John Boehner and House Minority Whip Eric Cantor.

Yeah, let's see - Bush was in power for 8 years. President Obama has been in there for a little over 1 year and 3 months.
How could anyone think that Bush's messup would still be hanging around now?
The two Bush wars that are now expanding and should have withdrawn our troops from and PAID FOR already........
Who is to blame for economic crisis?
Barney Frank
Barney Frank and Chuck Schumer?s Role the Fannie Mae Failure - Freddie Mac - Zimbio
"In fact, Frank & Co. made matters worse by pushing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to take on greater risk. They wanted more loans to people who might not qualify for traditional bank financing. And, as The Wall Street Journal has pointed out, Frank pressured regulators to ease up on their capital requirements which now means taxpayers will have to make up that capital shortfall.
kook, what economists (in the real world) aren't predicting 2011 to be better than 2010?No economists are predicting 2011 to be better than 2010.
