" And -- an -- on out the top story tonight are we overdoing the acorn deal. Joining us from Los Angeles Fox News analyst Tammy Bruce and radio talk shows are -- all right -- in my overdoing it here."
" Content just a bit I wouldn't say -- over doing it when it comes to trying to dig out of weed out corruption with any kind of an organization like acorn. The overdoing it in my opinion bill is that it's just a -- we need to look at organizations that help people registered to vote except Iraq on the left on the right and in the center technically I mean there should not be any kind of abuse or embezzlement of funds especially when their state and federal tax."
" scenario that you don't have any beef with me and Glenn -- and others exposing what we know about -- and what we found out. -- you'd like to expand the investigation to include some other groups. But I I you know that's not my job I don't have the ability to do that. We have -- we rely on information that flows in here we rely on people giving us tips I don't have. 30000 employees like the FBI go -- and do that now. The other thing is Tammy that doesn't seem to be any evidence and any other organizations are cheating. So why go on a fishing expedition but again I'm gonna bring it back to my original question -- in my -- doing the equal."
" Story. While the -- more than we continued overdue Watergate I mean there are issues that that occur add cover ups that occur. We're interested in what government is doing an -- as we know government does not act in -- the lights are turned on. The moment you turn out the lights are dim them then that then they start running out from under the refrigerator again the truth of the matter is -- only occurs -- people are looking. -- now the question becomes your right about acorn but now the question is. What did the Democrats know and when did they know what the same question it's -- Nixon had to deal with. And and that these are fair questions you're looking at millions of dollars of taxpayer dollars you're looking at an impact within our entire electoral system. And this only occurred when we realize that Mary Poppins and and -- mouse are being registered to vote a couple of cycles ago in Ohio. And I would take Leslie to task here because really. If we're gonna just investigate every one you know acorn brought this on themselves -- I suppose we should investigate every member of congress. Because Larry Craig had a bathroom issue maybe we should follow every person to the bathroom more. Charlie -- issues when it comes to taxes maybe we should investigate -- when he doesn't have a tax issue. You know -- evidence and corruption. Becomes apparent and acorns got a lot of work to do and the fact of the matter is. Vigilance when it comes to media is key."
" I am governor I want I want Leslie I want loudly when I -- joking. I those good Tammy is that you know look last week it -- got tax issues so what do you do audit all the house for representatives. You know let's Italian made some good points would be --"
" Well I don't think we can compare Watergate to this was certainly one involved the president and I haven't seen any involvement by president Barack Obama when it comes to acorn. Let's be honest before president Barack Obama the first African American president was elected. By an overwhelming majority of white people although more African Americans more minorities came out to vote for him than ever before are. We didn't know acorns -- anything other than -- little left that fell off of trees that squirrels eight. 10% of the funding of acorn comes from tax dollars 90% comes from the private sector -- of that little block -- though they're private sector block."
" asked that would block grants are basically federal money goes to the state and in this state says we'll give it to them. But your point Danny is that you believe this is racially mullet or or politically motivate."
" I I I I but I believe I believe if it blocks like a -- like what what am I gonna do is race color or wanna -- so what's welcomed like a duck. Why didn't anyone care about -- corner look into a corner any other alt left you know community -- and an organized isn't. -- there is no -- the evidence and what are running collective plus. And he didn't surface you know this was indeed air until the last I don't mourning today let me just say -- we miss Lewis is said that the demonization about -- process here are well that's what she says no and the -- go ahead -- good and I agree with well it."
" There's going to be due process of being investigated in fifteen states now the Louisiana attorney general's looking -- there's going to be a lot of due process it's George W. Bush is issue wasn't just 2008 -- was also 2004 I -- George W. Bush had been more aggressive on this point. And he wasn't and now we have this result. And now the Democrats which they thought was going to be a boon for them which is acorn now may in fact be there Watergate. "
" You know what I'm worried about here on -- did Al Franken got elected senator from Minnesota. Because -- Because I can't get an elaborate -- says I I've any evidence. That that took place put -- 312. Vote margin for frank it. When you had thousands and thousands and thousands of questionable ballots by acorn and Minnesota and we're gonna have a report on this tomorrow. That -- gets to be real serious you know -- talking about."
" I'd still build I have to say I think everybody here is giving acorn more power than go out of your greatest days you're tens of thousands of people --"
" And a guy wins by three -- twelve and you know every -- that acorn registers votes Democrat every want."
" Okay aren't I am I think we got a look at it and what I think what -- legally what. I I -- I agree but I finally I'm a little Democrat I certainly want of their but I only want America got -- fair and square driver is legal I think I think well I I I in his cell I don't think acorn since."
" Lots of -- I think defensive -- that's ground zero Minnesota for me I'll give you less wear --"
" A -- that's the entire point -- fox can't stop and white media should be vigilant because the only way we are gonna learn when we have. Seemingly some serious issues is -- media forces the government to do the right thing the fact as you noted that -- is looking at the CIA and not the situation. Is absurd and I think that this is a new way of of of making the government -- face up to its responsibilities. And it's got to continue ladies thanks very much for good."
