Now lets rewind to the "Economic Stimulus Act" that was rammed down our throats by Obama and company. Originally included was over $5,000,000,000 (yes, with a B) for "emergency assistance for the redevelopment of abandoned and foreclosed homes". Thankfully, we can at least take solace that this was later pared down to $2 Billion. When Republicans cried foul because this was merely ACORN pork for supporting Obama, Democrats scoffed at them, saying that ACORN never went after these funds and would not in the future. Really? Then where do they suppose the funds for the aforementioned whorehouse would come from? You've got it ... another example of how the stimulus package is providing high paying jobs in the community (anybody know how much a good hooker makes these days?) Simply stated, ACORN is coaching potential pimps and whores on how to get their hands on Stimulus money.
If you think this is an isolated case, think again. The day before the Washington taping, the same documentary crew went to the Baltimore ACORN office where they were coached on how to falsify tax records and seek illegal benefits for 13 "very young girls" from El Salvador who they were going to use as prostitutes. The local ACORN staff was very helpful! Nice.
This organization was hired by the Obama campaign and paid nearly a million dollars to campaign for him during the election. Naturally, the entire membership are strong supporters of Obama. Here's a few other things this group of slime balls has been involved in:
- Catherine Cortez Masto, Nevada's Democratic Attorney General said that Acorn itself is named in a voter fraud criminal complaint, saying that Acorn's training manuals "clearly detail, condone and . . . require illegal acts," such as requiring its workers to meet strict voter-registration targets to keep their jobs. (Las Vegas Sun)
- Other Democrats have complaints. Fred Voight, deputy election commissioner in Philadelphia, protested after Acorn (according to the registrar of voters and his own investigation) submitted at least 1,500 fraudulent registrations last fall. "This has been going on for a number of years," he told CNN in October. St. Louis Democrat Matthew Potter, the city's deputy elections director, had similar complaints. (Wall Street Journal)
- Washington state prosecutors fined Acorn $25,000 after several employees were convicted of voter registration fraud in 2007. The group signed a consent decree with King County (Seattle), requiring it to beef up its oversight or face criminal prosecution. In the 2008 election, Acorn's practices led to investigations, some ongoing, in 14 other states. (Wall Street Journal)
- Public records show that last spring the IRS filed three tax liens totaling almost $1 million against Acorn, most of which concerned employee withholding (Wall Street Journal).
Notice in items 1 through 3, the complaining officials are Democrats. ACORN is an organized crime organization and should be investigated using the RICO Act. Further, the very strong links between the Democrat party and this group should be included in that probe. Finally, remember that even though Obama has "distanced" himself from this group, he can't deny the past just as he can't deny his ties to Jeremiah Wright or Saul Alinsky.
Take heart in the fact that the Progressives numbers are dropping like rocks and there's a very good chance we can at least recover some semblance of power in the next election. By being vocal and pressuring our elected representatives we at least have the Democrats arguing among themselves, which in and of itself is quite a feat. Don't let the bastards wear you down and keep talking to friends and family about this corrupt gang.
