I almost choked when Fox just interviewed a congressman who said that the Dem "bail-out bill" retains the provision that 20% of the money recovered from the sale of crappy mortgages will go to ACORN, a group of career criminals under indictment in multiple states and the leading organized crime group that fraudulently registers voters and commits voter intimidation of Republicans every two years. This suggests there will be no Repub supported bill in the foreseeable future.
“This would dwarf the last con-job, Oil for Food.”
OK. We can call this the ‘Money for Nothing’ bill.
Bush better veto this da**ed thing.
I know what you mean and I share your frustration but remember the reason this bill isn’t already law is because the House GOP WON’T GO ALONG. God Bless them!!!
“Its only a coincidence that they are all DemocRAT organizations so dont pay any attention to that.”
0bama, Reid and Pelosi must be needing to pay off their handlers. That’s what their add-ons were.
It’s about time to start back with some very,very hard hitting ads.
We just don't have the participation we used to have.
Shame.
When are the American tax payers and voters going to wake up and smell the coffee? The cesspool called Washington that houses the most corrupt, lying, arrogant and useless gathering of elected thieves could care less about what the voters want or need. Their only objective is to screw the voters and get money from those that are stealing money from the investors to give to this bunch of sewer dwelling elected thieves.
Re: ACORN - correct! Earlier in one of the threads DrDeb posted that this was taken off the table yesterday morning, and I was pretty sure it wasn’t. Just heard a few minutes ago on FNC, Election HQ that it is indeed still in there.
AND - on another important subject - remember in the debate last night where liar BHO challenged JSM on the issue of un-conditional negotiations with Iran/Ahmedinejad? He tried to make JSM look stupid by saying that JSM’s own advisor, Dr. Henry Kissinger supported that? Well, not only did JSM immediately come out afterward (somewhere on FNC) saying that Kissinger does NOT support any such thing, but on the same Election HQ just now, they had Kissinger on the phone and he confirmed what McCain said - BHO is just wrong about this and under no circumstances does he support presidential level negotiations with Iran with no pre-conditions (for the same reasons JSM said) and he elaborated quite a bit on it.
You think either this or the ACORN story will be reported to the Public by ANY of the MSM??? When pigs fly (with or without lipstick).
Isn’t all this enough to make your blood boil??
“20%, psshhh thats chump change. Whats $140 billion here or there?”
Not only is the despicable ACORN into “low-income housing”, but they’re also very dedicated, with the ACLU, to teaching and aiding illegals how to fraudently vote. Which this year in particular, we CAN’T afford!!!
Letter to my Congressman:
Congressman Frelinghuysen,
I’ve been nice, I’ve been willing to “agree to disagree” in regards to your positions vs. my own on offshore drilling, etc.
However - HOWEVER - if you vote for this so-called “Bailout” legislation while funding for ACORN and other subversive groups remains a part of the bill, you will lose my vote in November, and every election thereafter.
Additionally, I will work ceaselessly for your primary opponent during the next election cycle.
Do not - DO NOT - be a party to passage of a dirty bill. Bail out the banks and investment houses if you must, but DO NOT hand over billions of dollars to those who seek to overthrow our Federal System.
I trust this email has gotten someone’s attention.
Thank you
Peter W. Kessler
I haven’t been this fired up since impeachment. I wish I was still in Florida with the best activists in the business.
If I lived in Wahington DC I would sure be there! And a bit difficult to get to my state Capital five hours away. I will be emailing and making phone calls at least. :)
Update: I just called Boehner's office and talked to an aide that assured me they are fighting the ACORN provision tooth and nail. Seemed to appreciate the expression of support.
It’s time to go for the jugular!
kill or be killed.
That’s good news.
I e-mailed Boehner, Blunt and yes, even Barney Frank, on this. Called ACORN a criminal organization that should in no way receive any profits from a mess they aided and abetted.

As I said, as of 2-3 hours since that NRO thing (depending on eastern or central time), ACORN is STILL in there, confirmed on fox news channel.
House GOP rejects latest bailout proposal; Update: Pelosi wants deal in principle by tonight
“Yikes - Seek Man Seek!!!Google “US Senators” or US Congress and you will get more phone numbers than you can call in a week.

Thanks for the info. Hopefully the Republicans in congress will keep up the fight and that McCain gets out there and says NO DEAL and why and names names!
