opening an investigation is another way of saying “nothing to see here - let’s move on”

Does anyone actually believe in the last 18 days the FBI is capable of discovering the truth about voter fraud perpetrated by ACORN? If you do, I have a bridge in Brooklyn I can sell you on the cheap!

If Obamessiah is elected and the FBI doesn’t back down, their budget will go to around a buck and a half.

I agree. It's too late to have a positive influence on this election. And if Obama wins this election (which I would put at more than a 50/50 chance), this stuff will NEVER see the light of day.

I am going to buy my first handgun this weekend ...

If I had a dime for every “FBI opening an investigation” story in this country, I’d be eligible for an Obama tax increase.

All they need is ONE solid piece of evidence that this criminal enterprise crossed state lines and it’s a whole
nother ball game.

Rat bastards are everywhere, INCLUDING the FBI.

In a month or so, they'll say they found nothing amiss.

I wouldn’t get too many hopes up. Lots of liberals are still infested in all sectors of Washington, including the FBI. We have no idea who will be handling the “investigation”. Seems I recall that all the heat Alberto Gonzalez took for firing all those US Attorneys had largely to do with those lawyers failing to do much in the way of prosecuting voter fraud cases. Since Bush’s “new tone” left a mass of Clinton Holdovers at DOJ, it’s not surprising they had no interest in prosecuting ACORN. There are probably a ton of Clintonites left at the FBI also.

Memo to Republicans: trash the New Tone Crap. It gets you nothing

This is the same FBI that turned over hundreds of their files, if not thousands, to the Clintonistas to curry favor with Bill & Hill. Pubbies, and many ‘Rats, are still fearful of what the liberal MSM ... always willing to aid & abet, ... might drop on them if they get out of line politically.
