More on NYT "Report" on ACORN: NYT Reporter Under Mistaken Impression Conservatives Wrote Alinsky's Rules for Radicals
According to the sages at the NYT, who edit ACORN statements to make them appear to not be blatant lies, conservatives have discovered an entirely novel, unprecedented, brand-spanking-new method of political opposition:
Conservatives believe that they have hit upon a winning formula for such attacks: mobilizing people to dig up dirt, trumpeting it on talk radio and television, prompting Congress to weigh in and demanding action from the Obama administration.
First of all, that was the standard liberal playbook for eight years so give me a break.
Second of all -- as Althouse points out, the way they characterize it sounds like it comes from Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, which is of course Obama's and ACORN's Bible.
