PITTSBURGH -- Allegheny County police are sifting through voter registration forms in an effort affiliated with a national investigation that has turned up thousands of allegedly fraudulent voter registration forms.
Regulators are paying close scrutiny to registrations submitted by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN, a group dedicated to assisting the less fortunate across the country.
There appears to be a crime, said Steve Zappala, Allegheny County District Attorney. Clearly there are people on these applications who have not been solicited or may not exist. Theyre forgeries.
On Wednesday, authorities in Las Vegas raided an ACORN office and confiscated recent voter registration documents.
Distancing itself from the controversy, ACORN said at that time it has zero tolerance for fraudulent registration and will immediately fire anyone engaged in such activity.
Not sure if there is a thread on this or not, but Fox & FRiends reported earlier this morning that the college kids from Palestra who interviewed people from ACORN were called by a representative of the Sec of State of Ohio, and told to stop reporting those stories because they are helping the Republicans with their talking points.
Did you hear Bob Beckell chuckling over ACORN...defending them by saying that when he drank he would have registered with a phony name, too. According to Bob, it’s just a bunch of folks having a little fun.
WE, the TAX PAYERS, PAY for ACORN which is a CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE that specializes in VOTE FRAUD! STOP the FUNDING NOW AND PROSECUTE!!
Ayers also said “America makes me want to PUKE”.
Simple. You tell the media you're "distancing yourself from the controversy", and they go, "OK" and stop reporting on it.
How hard would it be to “check up” on what is going on a random ACORN functions?
It's a shame to admit it, but you are right.
Is ACORN a government subsidized criminal organization?
Ya know, I’m beginning to have some real hope. That there is now national spotlight on these roaches is breathtaking and beatiful. We all know what happens when the light comes on while roaches work their little hearts out to eat up your bread! Brunner is really pissed off at Greta, big time. (Delicious) But she needs to face it: She’s on the national hotseat and this shit is going down. I am really starting to think that they can’t win by cheating. I don’t think they’re gonna win, period.
I CALL FOR OFFICES NATIONWIDE OF OBAMA's A.C.O.R.N. TO BE "FREEPED"
With signs, bullhorns, press releases, American flags, and everything. These might be in inner cities, folks, so bring your flak jackets. I would be there to organize it if I could. This is an attack on the United States of America and our Constitution.
Be ready for anything, but at all costs, get the TV cameras there.
