This I think is an important story. I wonder if this is what Obama meant by “community organizing”.

....."I wonder if this is what Obama meant by “community organizing”."....

Exactly, that is the gist of it from what I understand. He worked for Acorn to harass business to give loans to people that couldn't pay, and worked to get government money for liberal causes. Instead of helping the neighborhood, he would get money to push socialist propaganda in the ghetto's.

It's like a cancer in Chicago. One hand helps the other hand to cut the throat of anyone that doesn't get along. This oligarchy gets money from one another to pass along to each other to destroy America. If you remember, when the bailout was first discussed, Acorn was to get 20% of any money the government might make on the bad paper they would buy and sell. The Dems had a laundry list of La Raza, Acorn, and other left wing crap tagged on to the bill thinking it HAD to pass. Notice, when it was removed from the bill to get passed, we can't find out who suggested it to be added to the bill.

>>>I wonder if this is what Obama meant by “community organizing”.<<<

ACORN is a Community Organizing lobby group.

"Community Organizers" are more apporpriately labeled "Community Agitators"

ACORN's specialities include; 1] extortion of banks to extend loans to those who do not meet any qualifications, 2] voter registration of anyone that can fog a mirror [and some that can't], whether or not they meet legal requirements to vote, and 3] aiding and abetting illegal immigration and agitating for rights for illegals.

Here is a long, but excellent article that explores the roots of todays banking crisis, Obama, Obama's friends and ACORN. It's simply the best I've read.
