Only one of the five television networks that interviewed President Obama for their Sunday shows bothered to ask him about Acorn, the left-wing community organizing group whose federal funding was cut off last week by an overwhelming vote in Congress.
"Frankly, it's not something I've followed closely," Mr. Obama claimed, adding he wasn't even aware the group had been the recipient of significant federal funding. "This is not the biggest issue facing the country. It's not something I'm paying a lot of attention to," he said.

Given his longstanding ties with Acorn, President Obama's protestations of ignorance or disinterest in the group's latest scandal seem preposterous. Here's hoping White House reporters will press the president to clarify just how much he really knows about Acorn and when he knew it.

Nothing to see here......
Un-be-flippin’-leavable!!!!
Deny,Deny,Deny
Don't hold your breath.
YOU LIE!
Give me a small break.
I've got a feeling that a lot of ACORNs are going to be falling on their swords over the next 6 months. Ouch! Anything for "The One."
Some commnity organizer he is, Not even aware that Acorn stands to get 8.6 billion in tax payer dollars?
Obama is playing the rope-a-dope strategery on ACORN, so he can slip them the money later.
Obama is ACCOUNTABLE for the funding allocation.He owns it.

Meaningful or not?
“Acorn Who? Obama heads for the high grass.”
Move over Birthers, we are about to be joined by the neocon racist Arcorners.
Rab
“High grass?”
RAAAAACIST!!!

“Pass the doob, man, I need another hit.”
obama is acorn
Obama distances himself from ANY person or organization that becomes a political liability, NO MATTER HOW MUCH they did for him in the past. He is a charming, but cold hearted character.
LOL! High grass? Do you think he might find and oak?
A bit like Clintbilly when somebody crossed him.
That Obama bus must be really radically raised to fit that crowd under it.
I’d expect squirrels.
Obama’s claim of ignorance may have merit. Afterall, he spent 20 years in Reverend Wright’s church pews and never heard an inflamatory word uttered. Maybe Obama is just as he appears: a slow witted rube with a tender affection for communism.
Amazing how the thug lies and lies and lies and lies and lies.
It’s also amazing how the media suck up and don’t ask him real questions hardly ever. Amazing they even dared to ask anything about ACORN.
