It was always and only about the money....as in this from two years ago....but, hey....consider the source...

"Bertha Lewis, ACORN's national CEO, says another 10 or 12 state chapters appear ready to follow suit. The remaining chapters, she says, might be too devastated by funding cuts to survive, resulting in the national organization not having on-the-ground local chapters."

"Congress voted overwhelmingly last year to ban ACORN and its affiliates from getting millions of dollars in federal funds. Major foundations that funded ACORN's poverty work also withdrew their support."

"ACORN fired the employees in the video and says it has fixed internal problems. "

(You don't admit to the media that you fired people and then say you were doing nothing wrong out of the other side of your mouth.)
