ACORN is the outfit Obama organized for..and when he became a lawyer he represented ACORN.It has been nabbed in coutless vote fraud cases and works its magic best in places where there is same day registration and a no-voted I.D. rule.
$30,000 went to each of 2 ACORN chapters for specific work on 2 projects, a ballot initiative to raise minimum wage in AZ and efforts to regulate the payday loan industry.
I would say they felt those issues were worthy causes. While “peace and social justice” funding often leans to leftist causes, Catholic Charities overall do great work helping millions of people all over the country.
Catholic Charities encompasses everything from food banks, health centers, temporary housing, counseling, pregnancy and adoption services, home delivered meals, education and more. To slam Catholic Charities (which is a group of over 170 main agencies with hundreds of branches and affiliates) over some money given to ACORN is grossly unfair.
Sharp eyes there.
Stupid reporters. We really should try to sell them carbon credit beans.
