ago, a mile under water in the gulf of mexico at the site of the bp oil disaster, where a new cap has just been successfully lowered onto the broken oil well. this new and improved cap is a much tighter fit than the old one, apparently. it still has to be tested and monitored for two days to see if it totally works, but if it works the way it s supposed to, bp will soon be able to capture essentially all of the leaking oil from the ruptured well. the millions of gallons that has already leaked out is, of course, still out there, in the gulf, creating environmental ultrahavoc. but, again, if this cap works, the continuing leak at the source will finally be under control. but while residents of the gulf are watching the engineering response in the gulf, watching the underground oil volcano and waiting for it to stop spewing oil so they ll know just how big a disaster they re really facing, the political response to the bp oil disaster inches along in washington, d.c. the washi

and prostitute them. it was for iffy in the brooklyn situation. here we have this is a spokesman from acorn, this is we said. hopefully today s announcement and similar results from independent reviews will make politicians and media examine the facts more carefully the next time a valuable community organization is attacked. did you attack acorn? are they the victim? hanna and james went in there on an inld film production. a media that doesn t want to report this and a democrat-liberal community organizing cabal that act.this way to perpetuate what i think is a crime within the inner city. that community organizing group on tape is shown that it helps the lowest of low lives try to get government money. and it happens on every single
it s good news for acorn. the left wing activist group, the brooklyn d.a. here in new york has cleared the group of criminal wrongdoing in connection with those undercover video we famously saw last summer. the videos were made by conservative filmmaker james o keefe and hanna giles. here is some of what they captured on video. she is very honest. megyn: so acorn is declaring this a victory. is it right? are its troubles over? andrew breitbart is publisher of biggovernment.com. he joins me live from los angeles. good afternoon. acorn says they have been vindicated. these videos captured no legal
wrongdoing and really it s a thumb in your eye. well, the tapes are there. we offered up the full transcripts and the full audio for the world to see. the mainstream media chose to ignore it. they know that it exists. this is not a vindication of acorn. what it does it s showing what s going on out there. the d.a. in brooklyn is a member of the working families acorn party. so there is an inherent conflict of interest in him investigating in the first place. when i was brought before the d.a. they were incredibly professional. but when i was being grilled by the d.a., all they wanted to know who was funding me, what my relationship to james o keefe and hanna giles was. it didn t seem they were trying to find out what say core did wrong. it s certainly not vindication.
