Attention Freepers. Does anyone have the names of the SEVEN Senators who voted against defunding ACORN? They must be OK with child prostitution. What a bunch of sickos. This is not “The Magnificent Seven.” Someone please get me the seven names and let’s put up on on FR and expose these schmucks.

He’s perfectly in lockstep with BHO.

I don't know who voted NO, but there were apparently 9 non-voting members (at least some of whom are out of town).

So, is the tally 83 YES, 7 NO, 10 absent (including Teddy)?

If Toomey manages to win we will actually have a first class senator.

The action came as the group is suffering from bad publicity after a duo of conservative activists posing as a prostitute and her pimp released hidden-camera videos in which ACORN employees in Baltimore gave advice on house-buying and how to account on tax forms for the woman’s income.

No mention whatsoever of the illegal-alien child prostitutes.

Will this be done in the house?

Will Obama sign it?

Didn’t ‘ACORN’ change their name or something a little while back.

They might be defunded the old organization, but what about the new one?

This Prostitution promoter generates votes for Democrats, I am sure there is a rub somewhere.

Here’s a wild guess. Beck says he has something major coming tomorrow re: ACORN and I believe it is housing related. Did the Senate try to pre-empt him?

McCain and Graham voted with Kennedy, which is to say not at all.

Philadelphia owns Casey. Problem is, he’s a Senator of PA.

Gillibrand (D-NY)

Thought she was supposed to be more moderate. Guess not!

Incredible that ANY self-respecting Senators would vote to keep funding ACORN after this BOMBSHELL of a story. It’s not just a bombshell it’s NUCLEAR. Then again, we’re talking about Dick Turbin, “Senator” Burris and the communist Sanders.
