Huffington Post Covers Up Obama’s ACORN Roots

Flaky conservative blowhard-cum-flaky liberal blowhard Arianna Huffington’s much visited gossip website, The Huffington Post, is just the latest media outlet trying to keep Senator Barack Obama’s exhaustively documented history of radical activism out of the public eye.

Enter HuffPost writer Seth Colter Walls. After reading his post, titled “Fox News, GOP Tag-Team Obama With Voter Fraud Smear,” it would be unfair to accuse Walls of lying because that would mean he deliberately uttered a statement he knew to be false. In fact, Walls appears blissfully ignorant of the facts, but his attitude seems to be — damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead!

Walls aimed his keyboard at the nonpartisan Media Research Center’s Seton Motley some hours after Motley appeared on “Fox & Friends” Friday morning (October 3), attacking Motley for asserting that Senator Obama has ties to the radical left-wing vote fraud factory known as ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now). It appears Walls conducted little actual research beyond obediently regurgitating the talking points fed to him by the Obama campaign.

Maybe part of the confusion about ACORN stems from the fact that ACORN has grown into a multi-headed hydra over the years. The massive leftist conglomerate boasts it is the nation’s largest community organization of low- and moderate-income persons, with 350,000 “member families,” organized into 800 neighborhood chapters and 104 cities.

ACORN has evolved into a left-wing brand. ACORN is actually several organizations, including the ACORN Institute (training), the Living Wage Resource Center, the Wal-Mart Alliance for Reform Now (WARN), the ACORN Housing Corp., and as discussed below, Project Vote.

But in order to understand how inept and slanted the article Walls posted is, it is necessary to look at what Motley said on “Fox & Friends.”

Inside Obama’s Acorn: By their fruits ye shall know them
Stanley Kurtz, May 29, 2008
"What if Barack Obama’s most important radical connection has been hiding in plain sight all along? Obama has had an intimate and long-term association with the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (Acorn), the largest radical group in America. If I told you Obama had close ties with MoveOn.org or Code Pink, you’d know what I was talking about. Acorn is at least as radical as these better-known groups, arguably more so. Yet because Acorn works locally, in carefully selected urban areas, its national profile is lower. Acorn likes it that way. And so, I’d wager, does Barack Obama." http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=NDZiMjkwMDczZWI5ODdjOWYxZTIzZGIyNzEyMjE0ODI
