The radical left-wing activist group ACORN would have us believe a panel of inquiry consisting of its friends and political allies will help the group fix its internal problems and get a fresh start.
I doubt anyone reading this article is that naïve.
The fact is ACORN will not go away quietly. It’s too big, too powerful, and too important to the progressive movement and the Democratic Party. Power concedes nothing without a fight, so it’s not at all surprising that the group is already trying to whitewash its deep-seated, systemic problems.
(Excerpt) Read more at humanevents.com ...
Among its members are left-wing political hacks including Clinton White House Chief of Staff John Podesta, super-liberal Service Employees International Union (SEIU) President Andy Stern, and the much-investigated former HUD Secretary Henry Cisneros. Former Massachusetts Atty. Gen. Scott Harshbarger will lead the investigation. He’s a former president of the left-leaning group Common Cause.
Both Podesta and Stern have the ear of President Obama.
Podesta helped manage Obama’s presidential transition team and is president of the aggressively left-wing Center for American Progress. The center is heavily funded by George Soros and the subprime mortgage hucksters Herb and Marion Sandler ....
They might as well have Smokey The Bear investigate AcORN.
The group did something similar last year after an embarrassing internal scandal but that make-believe investigation didn’t end so well. When the honest people on ACORN’s internal panel began asking uncomfortable questions, they were promptly shown the door.
I’ll stick my neck out and say ACORN is toast.
Once the first couple skeletons are out, a deluge typically follows.
ACORN and Obama Play Americans For Fools
ACORN is not the only one who has played Americans for fools.

And we’re letting two brave young people take all the hits and I sure don’t see much pushback on ACORN, nor do I see any slowing down of the daily outrages against America from this POTUS.
Oh yeah, we have the constant “his popularity is plummeting in the polls!!” Yadda, yadda, yadda. Meanwhile that steamroller keeps comin’ on, nope, no change there. Those are feel-goodisms but the end of all this is not good, we are heading into slavery of one form or another and I wish some good FReepers would prove me wrong.
Meanwhile, our military is being betrayed RIGHT NOW, and they were by the congress the last several years but Pres. Bush had enough chuzpah, strength and moral character to see that equipment, training and manpower continued but not this Kenyan. They are betayed beyond imagination, “popularity poll” be damned, there’s real damage being done and the damage is costing precious lives.
To heck with my situation, I want our brave, remarkable military to get what they need when they need it, this war will end up in our streets.
