It’s a great show, and this is about the third time they’ve shown it. It makes clear that Acorn is a bunch of crooks, thieves, liars, cheats and anti-American thugs preying on the poor and gullible. In other words, the Dem Party.

I have to wonder now how much Acorn had to do with Bush’s “Katrina failure”.

FOX ran this first this past Friday during the normal Hannity time slot. It is an excellent piece that zeros in on Rathke and his embezzling brother.

Megan never asked Rathke if the reason he didn’t fire his brother was that he had himself benefitted from the hundreds of thousands that were embezzled from the organization. (Not that the lying scumbag would have answered honestly).

Unfortunately, for RICO to be used, you need honest US attorneys to prosecute. Think there are any under ZERO? The prosecutions would be half-hearted anyway. Need the states to step up and prosecute the locals.

>> It’s a great show, and this is about the third time they’ve shown it.

The GOOD news: some MSM “journalists” actually went out and did some journalism!

The BAD news: a couple courageous underfunded college kids had to lead the dolts to the story. They should have been all over it long ago... like BACK BEFORE THE ELECTION.

Oh well. Two cheers for Fox News; better late than never.

And two BRONX cheers for the rest of the louses in the “journalism” (actually, propaganda) industry.

A reliable source told me that a pimp and prostitute seek advice from ACORN and they have it on video. Can’t wait!

“Why arent RICO statutes being used on these worthless mud snails?”

....because they’re primarily an inner-city outfit...and the people they work with are a protected class...bring a case against ACORN, and out comes the race card.

It makes clear that Acorn is a bunch of crooks, thieves, liars, cheats and anti-American thugs preying on the poor and gullible.

It also makes clear that federal - and charitable monies are going to white men who pretend to represent the black community.

This is a rerun of a show that aired Thursday or Friday in Hannity's hour. Hardly “breaking“.

And the show was just a rehash of reports about the scandals that have involved ACORN over many years. No “news” either.

It is worth watching, if you haven’t seen it. But falls far short of “breaking news”

As soon as I saw what it was I posted the link! It is supposed to be available through www.Hulu.com/foxnewsspecials.

It didn’t pull up for me...not sure why.

I was at a conference for two days and didn’t see the previous shows...it was breaking for me.

I wonder how many other people were busy and didn’t see it?

People certainly do NEED to understand the fraud that is taking place at high levels of government.

They have been crying race for almost nine months now.

The race card is meaningless.

They are organized, interstate criminals in bed with willing politicians of the federal government.

It is time for RICO charges.

Now, exactly what would THAT have done to advance the radical gay agenda, the only REALLY important issue to most of today’s mainstream media?

ACORN was “born” in Arkansas and it was first known as Arkansas Community Organizers for Reform Now.

My belief is that without ACORN, neither Clinton nor Obama would ever have made it beyond some “lowly” government position, such as Atty General of Arkansas (Clinton) or community organizer (Obama).

Hyde Park is structured. the same way = it's why Ayers is there - and Alinsky was white - and chose to live in Hyde Park ( well, actually Woodlawn - but they're adjoining neighborhoods.

The floods of cash to white radicals keeps the natural black leaders (teachers - professionals etc) from gaining any traction... Inner cities cash flows to the marginal criminal class - - from wealthy (guilty) white liberals to white radicals to the criminal radical black street people.

The exception are the black "window dressing" people - well spoken - moral - and kept clueless. A person like Obama.

I saw it a few days back.

Listen closely to Rathke. He is truly scum who thinks he’s a lot smarter and sneakier than he really is. Personally I think he feels that he’s being sneaky but his message is clear. “I don’t really care about the little people but they make fine tools for the agenda”

I get the impression that Rathke is so used to people hearing what they want to hear that he doesn’t realize that many of us are smarter than that.

Hyde Park is structured. the same way - white radical taking in the money and power. Playing the black victim card while being white. It's why Ayers is there - and many others - they choose to live in Hyde Park.

Floods of cash to white radicals keeps the natural black leaders (teachers - professionals etc) from gaining any traction... and those people move out of the inner city.

Inner city cash flows to the marginal criminal class - - from wealthy (guilty) white liberals to white radicals to the criminal radical black street people. What dems have done to black culture is a crime. The exception are the black "window dressing" people - well spoken - moral - and kept clueless. A person like Obama.

One other thing about Hyde Park is (many decades ago when I lived there) there were a lot of old-style communists living in the neighborhood.

That’s for sure. Reid in Nevada is definitely one to watch this time around. He has had very close races winning by lower hundreds in recounts.
