ACORN's voter registration drive, covered in an Investigation by CBS' Armen Keteyian on Friday, came in for Jake Tapper's scrutiny on ABC. Tapper, like Keteyian, listed a laughable litany of self-disqualifying applications to join the rolls: one group of forms named the starting offense of the Dallas Cowboys; a set of 73 forms was filled out by a single Ohioan in exchange for "cigarettes and cash;" Mickey Mouse wants to be able to vote in Florida. Yet Tapper was slightly less quick than Keteyian to repeat charges of fraud against the community activists. He quoted candidate Barack Obama assertion that because these were "phony names" no one would be eligible to vote as a result of the application. Furthermore when ACORN turns in a batch of applications, the organizers themselves use a cover sheet to notify local election officials of suspicious or false items.
