A $5,000 fine? Really? Like that’s gonna have an impact.

The fine will be laughed at and scoffed at behind closed doors. And it will make absolutely no difference in the way ACORN operates.

Now, if somebody went to jail for a couple of years, I reckon they might sit up and take notice.

A silly fine? What BS!

No, it doesn’t. And in pub-controlled state houses across the country pubs are doing NOTHING about voter fraud. NOTHING.

To be paid for by the likes of you and me since their coffers are kept conveniently stocked with taxpayer funds.
 
Little wonder those sort are emboldened - no real consequences, no pain. No incentives to walk the straight and narrow.

{Art.} ACORN has pleaded guilty to one count of an election law violation in Las Vegas, Nevada.

So when can we hang Harry Reid?

That doesn't even reach the "chump change" category.

The judge couldn't find it in him, the jury having returned a verdict, actually to punish his political friends. That's okay -- we can take the rest of it out of his hide.

“10 years mandatory and a 500K fine!

Here’s the problem. The charge is against ACORN. ACORN can pay a fine, but you can’t put ‘ACORN’ in jail.”

Good Point,but if we do not wrest control from these criminals there will never be a fair election again.

So would you put Harry Reid, the chief community organizer Acorn attorney Barry Obama AND Ms. “You have to read the bill to know what’s in it” all in jail?”

Everyone they were helping,this should be a capitol crime and the ones they are working for should receive the same sentence, maybe more.

“Not only are you and the rest of us ROTFLMAO at the 5 grand fine, so is Dingy Harry.”

When I read the headlines, Dingy Harry's “win” was the first thing I thought of too. Pre-election support seemed to be behind Sharon Angle (sp?) according to the polls, newspapers, and residents. When Reid won, the first thing I thought of was “voter fraud”, but there was no proof. Now this. Stealing elections should be IMO on the same level as lying under oath. A judge once told me that lying under oath is judged so strongly because without everyone telling the truth, justice cannot be obtained. Therefore, it is put on the same level as treason. Voter fraud is/should be treason also.

That is one of the primary things necessary to save the country.
