Acorn disbanded three years ago. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/03/05/acorn-gop-budget-bill_n_2810345.html
So ... the ACORN employee isn't denying that he was willing to engage in criminal behavior, but rather that he suffered civil damages because of a law against being recorded by O'Keefe, and that his reputation suffered. Three years later, ACORN hasn't let him back, and he settled for only $100k? Seems like a smart money grab by his attorney, who I'm sure took a nice chunk of that $100k A highly misleading thread title. More dishonest than O'Keefe, one could say.

The hatred from these people is disturbing, to say the least, from both sides of the aisle.
Wow... Talk about a hate site. The comments on whatever Wonkette is (who broke the story) are disturbing, to say the least. http://wonkette.com/505026/wonket-s...-james-okeefe-to-pay-100000-to-acorn-criminal
ACORN is still a creepy organization. http://ww2.onenewsnow.com/politics-govt/2012/02/14/acorn-still-around I heard their administration still wants a comeback tour.
I believe the Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now no longer exists and does not receive federal funding.
