It was bound to happen. The blatantly liberal gossip site, Jezebel discovered Hannah Giles of ACORN fame.

It didn’t happen after her numerous appearances on various news channels, the many articles, the Drudge headlines, Congressional reprimands aimed at ACORN or her cameo in the “Damn It’s Good to be a Victim” rap. (It’s my favorite.) No, Jezebel suddenly became aware of the young lady who helped fire the opening salvo at ACORN through the Young America’s Foundation:

Move over, Sarah Palin and Carrie Prejean. The conservative movement may have already found its next telegenic spokeswoman.

Accepting a Young Student Activist Award from the Young America’s Foundation at the Reagan Ranch Center in Santa Barbara this past weekend, Giles — best known for posing as a prostitute to try and bring down ACORN — was greeted with adoring cries. The Los Angeles Times just called her “a rock star of conservative activism.”

When did the ACORN story break? August? Early September? It is now mid-November. Is Jezebel operating by carrier pigeon? Doesn’t Gawker pay writers by the blog post or have some crazy quota for writing a certain number of posts in one day?  My, these liberal broads were a bit slow catching onto this story.

Hannah Giles is exactly the type of woman that Jezebel readers hate. Gutsy, determined and strategic. Were she doing an expose of Focus on the Family or Concerned Women for America, they’d be singing her praises. However, ACORN is a sore spot for most liberals, and Hannah is very open about her faith and conservative values.
