I read somewhere that the Acorn provision was dead, but I cannot find a link.
Poor Barney Fwank his pet socialist group didn't get their billions.
Paulson was a starting point that the House Republicans rejected. ACORN was a Democrat add-on to the Paulson starting point.
I don't know if the President or Paulson support ACORN. I do know that the House Republicans don't support the original Paulson bail-out and they don't support the Democrat add-on, money for ACORN.
A bad turn of events for statists and squirrels.
