From the pages of Government Doesn’t Listen, Part MMXLVII, we have this stunning example from the House Financial Services Committee. Yesterday, Reps. Maxine Waters, Barney Frank, and the rest of the Democrats decided to grant community organizers governing powers by giving them a role in shaping and enforcing new regulations on the American financial industry. That seems to include, although not explicitly, ACORN:

They love ACORN...considering it put many many homeowners in a bind to see their values plummet due to their practices...there must be another reason they have to keep this criminal grp going-—continuation of voter fraud to win??? Cover up by expanding their role and making ACORN decent???

They are doing so many crazy things so fast, I can’t keep up with them.

I believe that is the reason for the speed they are using in turning our country into a third world crap hole.

The Republicans just stand by with their hands in their pockets. Those that aremt already part of the deal. Like McCain and Romney and Graham.

There must be a reason. What could it be except assurance that they will be able to keep their office?

THANK YOU for posting this.
Last night fellow Freeper OpusatFR posted it and I have been pleading with fellow Freepers to send it to DRUDGE. This needs to be exposed. I posted a Hannity’s site,little action, I posted on several Facebook pages, nothing, sent to DRUDGE, not there yet. Please folks work to get this out there. Evil wins when good people do nothing. Freepers are great at taking action, let’s do it. Send to DRUDGE!!!

“”Get this info to BECK!!!!””

I copied and pasted an article about this to Glenn last night. The cotton pickin’ thing kept me awake all night. They seem to love to rub our noses in their corruption.

I don’t expect Glenn to pick it up very fast as he’s usually several weeks late in recognizing the importance of things like this. He may get there eventually.

Send to DRUDGE!!!

I can't read his mind but if Drudge (and Sean, etc.) waits until Monday he might get more readers and better response...?

“”Reps. Maxine Waters””

She’s under an ethics investigation and it doesn’t look as tho’ any results will EVER come out of ANY House ethics probes.

How she continues to hold such sway over her district is beyond me. She certainly can’t relate to her constituents while she lives in a “toney” neighborhood. I wish she would just disappear off the face of the earth - making sure she takes dozens of others with her.

They didn't “ explicitly “ name ACORN, Oh NOOOOO, they wouldn't do that. Everything with liberals (read commies)is “illicitly”. Also, everything is in “CODE”. Democratic = Socialist. As Rush used to mock dems “We just want to hep you”, (read SCREW you). THEY LIE. Everything they say is a LIE, or as they might admit to, half truths and code language.
The old joke about how to know when a lawyer is lying......when their mouth is moving, this applies to liberal democrats in SPADES. (can I still say that?). Liberals are the enemy WITHIN. A CANCER we must cut out, poison, and radiate until there are no signs left. Ugly comparison you say?........it was meant to be.

Holy renewed over-leveraging, Batman!!!

Good grief, let these people get control of the banks, and people living under the overpasses in Chicago will be getting home loans.

I read earlier about BO releasing info about aliens, you know the kind from outerspace, when he accepts his bogus peace prize. Maybe with a little luck they’ll come down and beam up those cretins!
