Hah! Crawfish and Californicated Zydeco? Yes indeed!

I have no doubt that some ACORN employees, moved by a much more sympathetic bullshit story than the one we were originally been given to believe, may indeed have advised a young man purportedly trying to "save" a young girl from exploitation to stretch the law a bit to achieve his "praiseworthy" goal.

It's certainly not unknown for folks of ALL economic classes to "work the system" to their best advantage.

When poor folks who genuinely deserve (x) amount of food stamps can find a way to get (1.2 x) dollars worth, it IS technically illegal, but so what?.

Some of their loudest critics, of course, hire high-priced accoutnants every April to make sure that when they genuinely owe (y) dollars in taxes, they only pay (1/10 y), or less, or nothing. Of course, hardly anyone ever condemns them for that (not even me, usually).
