ACORN to Get Funded in the DEAL
Senator Lindsey Graham

Posted on 09/25/2008 7:21:27 PM PDT by KCengineer

Senator Graham said on Greta that ACORN was going to get funds in the original deal.

It will be a cold day in hell if those leftist crooks get my tax dollars.

Why are the Democrats so fond of the Marxists at ACORN?

Remember the immigration deal where angry Americans flooded Washington with phone calls, letters etc? Giving money to this racist bunch of left wing jackoffs would make that immigration scene look tame.

I thought Acorn already received taxpayer funds through various indirect mechanisms, I seem to recall stories on this here on FR in the past.

Durbin’s using financial crisis to extort redistribution of wealth from responsible homeowners to the profligate.
>http://hughhewitt.townhall.com/blog<
From Hugh Hewit’s website:
“Under the Democrats’ proposal, judges could approve individuals’ reorganization plans that would allow debtors to pay a lower interest rate for their primary-residence mortgages. Furthermore, if the value of the property falls below the loan amount, debtors potentially could reduce the balance of the loan to equal the current value of the property — a process commonly known as a “cram down” or “strip down.”

This is the federal government people. Was anyone expecting this bill to make sense? The government got us into the problem and now they’re going to... make things worse.

He said that ACORN was slated to get funds.

The House Republicans said no way.

Just heard that on Greta’s show.

Maybe that was the final straw that encouraged the House Republicans to grow a spine.

No wonder the Democrats were so upset. Giving ACORN 20% of $700 billion would allow ACORN to funnel the money back to Democrats so they could get more seats in the House and Senate.

ACORN is the arguably the worst, most corrupt organization in the country.

Yes - Holy Pete.....its true. I just posted this on another thread.

Alert:

I just heard Lindsey Graham on the Greta Van Sustren show, say that: "20% of the money that ought to be going to payoff mortgages in the bill is going to benefit a totally illrun organization called ACORN."

That's as close as I can come to a verbatim quote....5 minutes ago PST.

Anyone else hear this? - McCain needs to fry the Democrat's butts with this - and expose ACORN in the same breath!
