Thank you.

Housing funds ... is that the bulk of their $8b stimulus kiss or is this a token move to take off the heat?

[alecqss]

Yes, that’s what they converted our government to.

[the anti-liberal]

What about funds going to COI (Community Organizations International), ACORN's new moniker?

If they don't include COI than nothing's changed, unless there's some legal stuff tying the two entities together financially.

[elizabethgrace]

Yep, the Chicago ACORN(S).

Wonder if Burris felt obligated? lol

just now on Fox it was reported a states attorney in New York is looking into Acorn as a racket

[Political Junkie Too]

When will the Senate cut off ACORN'S "get out the vote" funds? Maybe that fund is off-limits...

ACORN: a Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization

[GeorgiaDawg32]

[CPT Clay]

Wont pass the house. Maybe get through on reconsiliation.

DU doesn’t have the story up yet, but I’ll bet there’s gonna be a lot smokin there pretty quick. They may even be unhappy with Beck and FOX.

[EDINVA]

Credit where credit is due: it goes to the young woman, Hannah and the filmmaker, whose name now eludes me, who developed the plan, then spent their own time and $$$$ to go to the Acorn offices acting as the pimp and prostitute. What amazing courage. Then they got to Glenn Beck who released their tapes.

THe Saturday march may have helped somewhat, but without those two young people, ages 25 and 20, it would never have happened.

[Tarpon]

Yeah, but don’t get too carried away, the rcist Senators haven’t really dine anything, that can’t be undone later.

What did Obama know and when did he know it.

[FreeperinRATcage]

Yup...watching the same thing. This Stae DA got any record we can look at?

[Callahan]

So a couple kids, a camera, and a bit of creativity turn the Left’s premier ground troops org into a pariah. I’m a little jealous because this is the kind of thing my friends and I could have dreamed up although I probably would have given the retards staffing ACORN a tad too much credit and left the pimp suit at home lol.
