“Pelosi didn’t vote because she didn’t know anything about ACORN “

It’s a disappointment that Ron Paul didn’t bother to vote either.

As usual the two morons from my state, New Jersey voted for keeping the funding for ACORN. Rush Holt the Dolt and the sexually ambivalent Franny Palone got behind ACORN. These two are a disgrace.

I still cant believe Shea-Porter voted yes. This is the woman that said “I vote with the democrats 100% of the time because I believe they are 100% right”.

“Time to vote these ACORN supporters out of office!!! “

Probably can’t be done. I suspect that about 45 are democrats from majority black districts. ACORN is probably the largest employer there.

A quick comparison of the voting record and the membership list of the Congressional Black Caucus, shows that only 7 of 42 voted to defund. A couple seem to be missing from the list. All the rest voted against defunding, except for Alcee Hastings and Melvin Watts, who voted “Present.”

I wonder what this represents. Racism? “Racial Solidarity”? Dependence on funds funneled through ACORN? I’d sure like to know why only 1/6 of the Congressional Black Caucus was appalled enough by what was happening to do something about it.

If I were black, I would be ashamed of them.

“Why isn’t Pelosi on that list?”

She was too busy threatening the American People with violence.
