Quinn & Rose this morning announced that US Attorney Peter Fitzgerald (yes, THAT Peter Fitzgerald) is bringing a RICO case against ACORN. Accusations involve mass voter fraud and allegations brought by the Clinton Campaign against them as well.

Folks, until this comes out somewhere other than Freep, it didn't happen. And if NBC does a piece that could conceivably cost Obama the election, I will shed my worldly needs and become a monk. Not...gonna...happen.

I don’t think it is too late, too late to stop early votes, yes, but not to late to have a court declare all registrations from Acorn, in all states, to be thrown out. Any legitimate voters can then re-register, there is time. This would eliminate a he** of a lot of fraudulent votes.

It already came out in other places and is being broken on Fox this morning. Open your eyes and stop being so damned negative.

Could this happen in the U.S.?...

I gotta think liberals (well I know) as a whole are lazy and dumb. Probably too lazy to give up thier freebies from the gubbermint to create havoc.

I can’t see the Clintons endorsing McCain, but I can see a withdrawal of their endorsement. I have been praying for Bill Clinton to withdraw his half-hearted endorsement of this creep.

Good old Rudyard Kipling:


...When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,

And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."

On the first Feminian Sandstones we were promised the Fuller Life
(Which started by loving our neighbour and ended by loving his wife)
Till our women had no more children and the men lost reason and faith,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "The Wages of Sin is Death."

In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all,
By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul;
But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "If you don't work you die."

Then the Gods of the Market tumbled, and their smooth-tongued wizards withdrew
And the hearts of the meanest were humbled and began to believe it was true
That All is not Gold that Glitters, and Two and Two make Four—
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings limped up to explain it once more...

What everyone seems to have forgotten is that ACORN gets about 40% of it's funding courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer, thanks to the RATS in congress.

The other thing everyone has forgotten is that the original bailout bill (That the house rejected) was going to give 20% of the funds to ACORN thanks to the communist speaker of the house and her merry band of thieves.

“...hard to believe they would do that and then pull this...”

Unless you’re being sarcastic and I didn’t get your humor:

Have you never MET the Clintons? LOL!

They’re out for one thing and one thing only...to take back the White House and rip off America even more than they already have!

Don’t underestimate either of them. They’re evil. And Slick Willie is just flat out psychotic.

I love listening to them too, but I’ve been burned on their “exclusives” in the past. I remember when Quinn promised that his ‘sources’ had told him Mitt Romney was going to be the VP, and he’d bet money on it. I never heard any resolution on the Kathleen Sebelius issue.

If I hear it on Quinn and Rose, I wait to hear it from someone else before I repeat it.

Yea, except that Obama’s new gang of radicals apparently are smarter than Clinton's old gang of liberals. After all, they beat her.

I am not a lawyer, so I’m just speculating that this could be a bad thing. if these Acorn people are indicted under Rico or any federal agency, it will effectively shut out any further investigations on the state level.

So far, the states and the FBI investigations are finding information but if Fitzgerald INDICTS Acorn under RICO, everything would go silent. Gag orders would be put in place and nothing more will be heard until way after the election.

Dood. Nobody wants this to be true more than me. I am watching Fox right now. They did a ACORN story, but nothing about a potential RICO case. I want a press conference with Fitzmas in Chicago saying "Ree-ko" and "Rezzz-Ko" in the same sentence.

Ah, no wonder I couldn’t find it, your post mentioned obamacrimes and not hillaryclintonforum.

Thanks, though.
