The father of a New Jersey man whose undercover video has damaged the reputation of ACORN says he's proud of his son.
Jim O'Keefe's son James is the "pimp" who filmed ACORN representatives giving him advice on how to get loans for a brothel in Baltimore. While surprised by his son's investigation, O'Keefe says it's not the first time his son has used video to prove a point.
O'Keefe's video has had some major implications for the national community organization group.
The House of Representatives has voted to cut funding to ACORN in light of O'Keefe's video. The organization has also fired several of the workers seen in the video.
