I spent this morning thinking about the healthcare debate and that speech last night. I have so many problems with the plan that it's hard to even start processing some of the crazy talk that we heard last night. I looked around a little more and saw a story that stole my attention. Here we have a 20 year old college student breaking down a multi-million dollar tax payer funded governement program called Acorn. This is an amazing story. Everyone by now knows the story...but do they? No one in the media picked up this story (besides Fox and conservative voices) which leads to another story. What is wrong with the media today? How did a 20 year old journalism student get a story that no one in the liberal media saw coming? Why are they not covering this story? There has to be something deeper going on and I hope investagative journalism will uncover all of this junk. I'm sick to my stomach thinking that my tax dollars are going to this organization. There should be an immediate investagtion by Congress. This is serious and not a joking matter. All tax payer money should stop flowing to this organization until Congress finished this investigation. Acorn has lost any credibility that it had and is now officially a joke. Thank you Hannah Giles for doing what journalism used to do. This is a bright spot for our future in an industry that has totally lost their way. I hope that this strory continues to progress and maybe one day it will cause a chill to run down Chris Matthew's leg.
