ACORN drops tarnished name and moves to silence critics. NEW NAME = COI

Changing ACORN to COI, boy is that ever going to trip us up. The crooks running ACORN really think we are as stupid, and I mean real stupid, as their employees in the video.

[torchthemummy]

“Community Organizations International.”

Well at least their new name reflects their true loyalty - to the world and not their country.

[death2tyrants]

Being a government funded institution, it has to be Department of ....

How about DABAVoF.

Department of Adolescent Brothels and Voter Fraud.

[American Constitutionalist]

C.O.I. = Communist Obama Instigators.

As Beck has pointed out, this is their M.O. These folks keep breaking up and reorganizing under different names so it is difficult to "follow the money". Like all criminals they do it with a purpose. No matter, it is always the SAME PEOPLE. We the people need to insist on criminal charges for these folks. How many brothels were included in the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac fiasco last year? One wonders now.

COI? How very, well, er, coy of them...not too obvious.

The money to fund these groups is partially from offshore sources. Guess where.

I had heard they were changing it to ACOFN (pronounced "A coffin..."), for Association of Community Organizers for Fraud Now"

Wrong story date. Look at the source, it is 6/21/09.

[ETL]

Obama, ACORN, the (Socialist) New Party and the Working Family Party (an Acorn front group)
numerous sources

ACORN exists under something like 300 other names as filed in several states. The expense of changing all of the names would be very costly. Maybe we shall see some of their old letterhead and memorabilia up for sale on Ebay some day.

Refer to the nuts a
st Acorn/COI.

[Bigg Red]

COI? How cute? Is it pronounced like “koi”, the fish? Well, we will still smell the rotten stuff through the new packaging.

They should have used a name like Committed Reform Organizing Oath Keepers.

[N. Theknow]

COI = Corrupt Organization, Inc.

[paulycy]

[null and void]

Unfortunate acronym...

[null and void]

RIMMER: Erm, I think we're all beginning to lose sight of the real issue here, which is: what are we going to call ourselves? Erm, and I think it comes down to a choice between "The League Against Salivating Monsters" or, my own personal preference, which is "The Committee for the Liberation and Integration of Terrifying Organisms and their Rehabilitation Into Society." Erm, one drawback with that -- the abbreviation is "CLITORIS."

[Tennessee Nana]

COI = Communism Uncut International
