Obama, ACORN & Their Starring Role in the Mortgage Crisis
The New Media Journal ^ | Oct 10, 2008 | Frank Salvato

Barack Obama, congressional Democrats and Progressive-Left operatives – with the help of the mainstream media – have done a great job of spinning culpability for the mortgage crisis onto the Bush Administration, congressional Republicans and, in particular, John McCain. This is a notable moment in the history of political spin because as the facts present, Democrats and Progressive-Leftists – not Republicans –are the ones directly responsible for the current financial crisis in which our country is embroiled. At the center of this culpability are Barack Obama and ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

In order to understand how Barack Obama and ACORN are directly to blame for the mortgage meltdown, we first have to understand what ACORN is and how Barack Obama was affiliated with them...and make no mistake; Barack Obama was most definitely affiliated with ACORN.

From a comprehensive and thoroughly researched piece by Stanley Kurtz in the National Review titled, Inside Obama’s ACORN, we come to understand that ACORN has its roots in the anti-capitalist tenets of the 1960s radical left group the National Welfare Rights Organization. This groups’ goal was to force a radical reconstruction of what they described as “America’s unjust capitalist economy” by forcing the elimination of eligibility restrictions for those trying to attain inclusion on the welfare roles, thus creating an overloaded system, a crisis, so as to affect that reconstruction.

When Obama talked of his Chicago ‘Community Organizer’, I always pondered the definition... Now I understand... Working for ACORN as their attorney in Chicago, their acronym, “Association of Community Organization for Reform Now”; There is the Community Organizer!

In August it was reported Obama paid a branch of ACORN for ‘get out the vote’ projects $800,000 which he ‘misrepresented’ in federal reports (http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/news/election/s_584284.html). So, he funneled money to pay his old employer, who is now being charged with voter fraud for ‘fixing’ the election...

How simple is this? His work as a Community Organizer is part of a liberal election stealing agency!

Now I understand the first ‘BAILOUT’, that was overthrown by the Republicans, one reason due to the fact the Democrats placed in the Bailout to pay ACORN $500 million per year! http://primebuzz.kcstar.com/?q=node/14552 Why is this not being reported as the Democratic party funneling the taxpayers money to an organization that is trying to steal the election and our country to socialism!

Why are not we up in arms about this? Why is the press not covering this? Is our election going to be stolen by Obama, the Democrats and the Media and paid for by us, the taxpayers?
