Reps: 1,147,670,068,725,361,408 (power: 1,147,670,068,725,419) | |  Left-Wing Radicalism in the Church: CCHD and ACORN
It must have been a sad day at the offices of the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) in Washington, D.C., last year when the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) announced that its temporary suspension of funding for the embattled radical group ACORN was being made permanent. Each November around Thanksgiving, every Roman Catholic parish takes up a collection for the non-profit campaign.
CCHD is the grant-making arm of USCCB, which acts on behalf of the nation’s Roman Catholic bishops, a group widely assumed to be conservative defenders of traditional morality. However, CCHD and ACORN share a left-wing ideology that puts a premium on aggressive community organizing.

When first they practice to deceive.

Did or did not ACORN try to help what would appear to be a prostitute and a pimp in obtaining minors for the sake of child prostitution?

To draw an analogy, it would be as if they tried to discredit National Right to Life by linking it to Operation Rescue.

IE - they didnt know the secrets that were in the dark.
Of course the world wants to point it out that they did work with them, but they dont complete the whole story...for the sake of making the Church look bad.
I am rather used to the 'skimming' on the top - for the media to make more points and score bigger with everyone oppsoed to the Church.
Sensationalism.
