Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama is the first national candidate ever to hire ACORN, a controversial non-profit accused of voter fraud across the country, for get out the vote activities.
Obama’s campaign paid $800,000 to a subsidiary of the liberally-leaning non-profit Association of Community Organizers for Reform called Citizens Services Incorporated campaign to increase voter turnout.
This information, however, was not properly disclosed to the Federal Election Commission. The Obama campaign said it hired CSI to do “polling, advance work and staging events” according to reports submitted to the FEC during the Democratic primary.
The FEC said the Obama campaign needed to disclose ACORN was engaging in get out the vote activities last August. At the time the Obama campaign called the mistake a “clerical error.”
To date, ACORN has been accused of voter fraud in 15 states this election cycle.
Obama has close ties to the organization. Before becoming a member of the Illinois State Senate, Obama represented ACORN in a lawsuit to help push for “Motor Voter” laws to make it easier for low-income persons to vote.
Later, as director of the Woods Fund and Chairman of the Board of Chicago Annenberg Challenge Obama helped steer funds to ACORN through various grants.
Obama sought ACORN’s endorsement in the Democratic primary telling ACORN members, “Even before I was an elected official, when I ran Project Vote voter registration drive in Illinois, ACORN was smack dab in the middle of it, and we appreciate your work.”
“Project Vote” is the name ACORN’s voter registration drives are called. Obama worked for Project Vote for a period of roughly seven months in 1992.
ACORN endorsed Obama for president in February 2008.
Wow! Hubba Hubba! What a hottie!
Acorn - Obama’s hired guns.
Make the connections McCain campaign and get it out in a clear, concise matter.
Conspiracy to commit election fraud anyone? Too bad there seems to be a dearth of ambitious federal prosecutors out there.
Rudy Guiliani back in the day would have seen a linkage between a leftist group perpetuating brazen multi-state electoral fraud and a Democratic presidential frontrunner as an opportunity not to be missed.
Times change I guess.
McCain is NOT linking Obama to ACORN. He is NOT informing the American voters of ACORN being widely involved and indicted for voter fraud.
He is not naming names.
McCain is losing this campaign because he refuses to fight Obama and his lies, and dirty tactics such as ACORN voter fraud. He’s just been rolling over (or bending over, I should say) and accepting the abuse heaped upon him- and expecially Sarah Palin.
The anemic attempts by the McCain camp to fight back within the last few days just ain’t gonna get it.
He should have been hitting Obama back hard months ago.
He needs to get out there every day and FIGHT BACK.
Email Republican headquarters/McCain. FReep ‘EM OUT!
Tell HIM WE’RE MAD AS H*LL AND WE’RE NOT GONNA TAKE IT ANY MORE! FReep HIM!
REMIND McCAIN THAT HE HAS AN OBLIGATION AS OUR CANDIDATE TO FIGHT BACK!
To h*ll with bipartisian BS!
To h*ll with PC!
To h*ll with ‘conducting a respectful campaign’as McCain has said, and vowed to do.
RESPECTFUL CAMPAIGNING WENT STRAIGHT OUT THE WINDOW WITH OBAMA’S NASTY, BRUTAL COMMENTS SUCH AS;
‘lipstick on a pig’ and ‘You can wrap AN OLD FISH in a piece of paper called change. It’s still going to stink after eight years.’
Take off the gloves, McCain!
Hit the Marxist/Muslim hard with Ayers, Acorn, Violation of Logan Act, abortion, 2nd admendment, Campaigning for Odinga!!
Get off the d*mned economy issue. State that Obama/Democrats/ACORN caused this meltdown. State McCain offered a proposal to avert the meltdown and GET OFF IT.
Obama is counting on keeping this going to take the spotlight off his sordid past and dirty dealings!
NOTHING is more important than waking America up to this Marxist/Muslim!! DO IT. EXPOSE HIM!
FReep ‘EM!!!!

Obama talks about Ayers giving him a job:

exactly. i bet they spent years setting this up.
That's the big one. People will get this. This info has to get out.
Obama the community organizer ===> His primary job responsibility was to distribute funds for "educational purposes ===> Obama funneled $800k to ACORN.
Simple.
Obama paid cash under the table to Acorn so he can win his Senator postion. Hmmm....someone needs to check that out to see if there is a fraud votes on Obama.
NoCoGOP’s wife message
The black JFK of 2008 isn't going to take any chances--his minions are out there making sure they win Ohio, Nevada, New Mexico, Florida, Virginia, etc., by massive last-minute unverified registrations and the latest version of "vote early, vote often."
I'm starting to wish Giuliani was the nominee over McCain. Giuliani is a street fighter and Obama would've been knocked senseless long ago. McCain is like a punch-drunk fighter, aimlessly flailing away.
So, who is this gorgeous Amanda? And what “rules”?
Watch the cities burn Novemeber 4-5th.
The cesspools may burn. The cities with conservatives - and lotsa firearms - will be just fine.
ACORN played the race card; they have already set the stage.
Personally, I think the looting, overturned cars set on fire, etc will occur regardless of the winner. Obama loses: Race card. Obama wins--the usual 'celebrations' we see after some sports team wins a chapionship, you get the idea. Except it will be on a national level.
Championship.
I ain’t votin’ fer no bum Senator.
This makes perfect sense. Since it was Acorn that created millions of fake registrations, they are needed to actually create the votes that go with those fake registrations.
