Before the November election, I recall reading that Fitzgerald was working on a big RICO case. Speculation was that it might be related to ACORN, but since then I’ve read nothing more.

Didn’t ACORN change its name?

AmeriCorp was targeted by Walpin. There already is evidence of abuse in that program, but those involved were Obama cronies and got off with a hand slap (Kevin Johnson, e.g.).

Congressman Darrell Issa has been working night and day uncovering the criminal enterprise ACORN. ACORN is set up like Al Capone’s various entities....they have a holding company, and 360 subsidiaries;some are non profit, some not. It is a corporate shell game. But Issa, a former founder and CEO of a major electronics company is well schoold in corporate finance, and has unraveled enough to indict ACORN on multiple felony counts.

That was so obvious and easy to determine, even a caveman could have done it.

Thanks for posting this. Matthew Vadum has done some excellent investigative reporting on Obama and the democrats. He is with Capital Research Center for those that don’t know. We give to their foundation and I encourage others to so so too. It is conservative money well spent. Reminds me...I need to make our donation to Free Republic too. Another place where conservative money is well spent!!

So now when the census people show up at my door, all I will say is that I refuse to give out any information to members of an organization subject an Organized Crime investigation.

This really is fantastic news.

Now, would the folks that want to cut 20 years off of their prison sentence by giving up the dem politicians including Obama... please raise their hands.

1st step...Immediately pursue a RICO action against all officers of Acorn and successor organizations.

That will require Eric Holder......

2nd step...Cut off ALL federal funds to Acorn and successor organizations.

That will require congressional balls....

3rd step...Ivestigate all ties between Obama and Acorn.

See step one......and two...

ACORN and SEIU have pretty much combined.
SEIU/ACORN = the new SA (Sturmabteilung) or Storm Troopers.
The question is when is “Kristallacht” going to occur?
