It most certainly is not a winning strategy, and when Meghan verifies her sources.....repost please.

She did not attack his disability...she said "walk a mile in my shoes"...not meant to be taken literally, except by people who can only think in literal terms.

Who is whining.  Texas was not going democratic until 2020, but these folks think they can win in 2016.  If they win this gov race, it will be impossible to elect a republican in the white house unless that candidate can get all the swing states, and it appears that Texas may be prematurely in play by the response of the Fox folks on her candidacy.

Whiner

That all you got, boy in the corner with a cone on his head?

Didn't attack, was ridiculing. Just as, in the video, her staff was laughing at his being in a wheelchair. Real class!

That's your "proof"? A video by James O'Keefe, convicted and fined for the ACORN videos and for illegal entry into Mary Landreau's offices. Could have been a felony, but the judge was lenient. And FAUX NEWS presenting his lies as facts. Yep, she scares the bejeezus out of the GOP. Go, Wendy!

Here's a little story about Greg Abbott:

How do you get a grant to fund cancer research in Texas? Contribute to the GOP.

Please show where the ACORN videos were not true. Please show us where ACORN is today.

What did they do? Pick the locks as in Watergate? Break down the doors? Climb in through the windows?

"Journalism school laughingstock and expert jazz hands practitioner James O'Keefe will pay $100,000 and apologize to a former ACORN employee who was fired after being featured in one of O'Keefe's 2009 "sting" videos. The heavily-edited videos were successful, in that they led to a congressional investigation that eventually shutdown ACORN, netting O'Keefe $65,000 in the process. The videos were also, apparently, illegally filmed, at least the one shot in California. Former ACORN employeed Juan Carlos Vera sued O'Keefe and his partner-in-crime Hannah Giles last year, saying the secretly recorded video violated California law that prohibits recording someone without their permission.

Giles settled last summer and now, as Wonkette reports, O'Keefe has agreed to pay Vera $100,000 and issue an apology in exchange for Vera dropping the lawsuit. The settlement also features the lame apology, "O'Keefe regrets any pain suffered by Mr. Vera or his family."

O'Keefe's interview with Vera is below, as is the settlement agreement...

ACORN was completely exonerated of improper behavior...but the damage by the GOP wrecking crew was already done.

ACORN Vindicated of Wrongdoing by the Congressional Watchdog Office

by John Atlas

On Monday, June 14, a preliminary probe by the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) of ACORN has found no evidence the association or related organizations mishandled the $40 million in federal money they received in recent years.

A review of grants by nine federal agencies found no problems with ACORN's grants. In my book Seeds of Change I document how ACORN, the largest most successful national anti poverty organization in America, was forced to close its door.

The GAO interviewed and obtained documentation from grant program managers and staff from nine agencies; NeighborWorks, the Election Assistance Commission (EAC), the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Department of the Treasury (Treasury), and the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), Department of Homeland Security and (DHS), the Department of Justice (DOJ), and the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Most of the grants were for housing-related purposes during fiscal years 2005 through 2009.

The GAO, an independent, nonpartisan agency that works for Congress, is often called the "congressional watchdog." It investigates how the federal government spends taxpayer dollars.

Nearly two dozen members of Congress requested an investigation after a series of complaints against ACORN and its affiliates. The complaints included an embezzlement matter, several cases of voter registration fraud, and the release of edited and misleading videotapes, secretly made by conservative activists that appeared to implicate ACORN workers in several offices facilitating prostitution. In fact the staff in most of ACORN's offices turned the pair away, reported the couple to the police, refused to provide them any aid, and in one case tried to convince the phony prostitute to get counseling. In no ACORN office did employees file any paperwork or do anything illegal on the duo's behalf.

But Fox News broadcasted the deceptive tapes nearly around the clock for several days defaming ACORN.

While Republicans in Congress, who for years had accused ACORN of corruption, used the phony tapes to lead an effort to successfully strip the group of federal funding in 2009. Months later the group was exonerated from any wrongdoing by every official and independent investigation.

After the broadcast of the videotapes on Fox and CNN, the New York Times and Washington Post inaccurately reported that the ACORN workers in several offices facilitated prostitution. The papers also reported that O'Keefe was dressed up in a cartoonish pimp garb when he entered the ACORN offices, when he actually wore a dress shirt and slacks and identified himself as a student or friend of the young woman who posed as a prostitute. As a result of the conservative's smear campaign and the media's erroneous reporting of the smears as true, the U. S. Congress defunded ACORN, which led to many of its funders and allies to withdraw their support.

An independent investigation by the Brooklyn District Attorney's office and the Attorney General of California vindicated ACORN of any wrongdoing. A federal judge ruled that the law barring the group's receipt of federal funds was unconstitutional. I capture the story of this incident as well as the history ACORN, in my new book, Seeds of Change, The Story of ACORN, America's most controversial anti-poverty community organizing group.

One of the activists, James O'Keefe recently pleaded guilty to charges of entering federal property under false pretenses when he attempted to embarrass Senator Mary Landrieu because of her support for national health care legislation.

So you can STOP LYING, MARKLE.

Lol... Soros deriding a person's ethics and integrity... gotta love leftist dissonance.

As you know, the tapes weren't about $40 million. Now back to my original question.

Please show where the ACORN videos were not true. Please show us where ACORN is today.
