Is that it? Fitzgerald was specifically investigating ACORN Illinois and now going national? Then almost certainly Rezko must have sung.

Obama is a leftist golem. Ayers has been molding and shaping and guiding him since his Columbia University days a quarter-century ago.

“...existing investigation that Fitzgerald was involved in that has now expanded to include all this ACORN stuff (reminiscent of Ken Starr expanding Whitewater to include Paula Jones, etc)”””
——————————————————————————————————(expanding Acorn to include Larry?,etc.)
How sweet it is!!

Seems all we have is talk so far, no?

Why celebrate when there’s been NO NEWS?

Been thinking that, and maybe even Bill, but it could all just be a pipe dream.

I was seriesly stuned to see this reported on CNN. I was just flipping through the channels since I don’t watch CNN usually.

The rumors of this investigation might be what’s propelling a tiny bit of contructive journalism by CNN and ther NYT even mentioning the name of William Ayers

If Patrick Ftzgerald, and the FBI, save this country from a coup- it is the story of the millenium. And possibly another behind-the-scenes courageous move by the much maligned George Bush.

I have had the very unsettling feeling “something” or “someone” declared war on us and a behind the scenes crisis was growing and no one was going to DO anything.

It may be premature to feel relief.

call pelosis office and tell her they want an explanation

Her track record shows that she would only cry foul over partisan politics.

I don’t believe that’s true. All the Constitution specifies is that there is to be ONE voting day, all throughout the United States and that day is to be specified by Congress.

So, it can be changed to whatever they want, but Congress would have to do it.

If Acorn is actually taken down at the national level and closed down in all 50 states, the Republicans will gain 40-50 seats in the House and regain the Senate. Acorn is in every state, usually under another name.

Here in NY, they’re called the Working Families Party. Without them, Hillary never would have been elected, nor would many house seats here in 2006 and all over the state prior to that. Maybe even some in urban areas.

Acorn is more pervasive than you could possibly imagine and if they are disrupted, even if it isn’t tied to Obama, Democrats will be unable to win in many places that are considered reliably Democrat.

They said accusations will center around a massive conspiracy committed by ACORN, Obama, Axelrod, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and Howard Dean ...

If what you are saying is true, this COULD be a scorched-earth attack from the Clinton wing of the Democrat Party.

I think the thing that really galls the Clintons is how coordinated and well-planned this was. The Obama forces were already having “activist training camps” to teach volunteers how to intimidate voters and steal votes more than a year ago.

That would be the Bill Ayers' influence - take it out to the "small cells" that fly underneath the radar.
