Just heard on Glenn Beck his friend Pat from (Texas?) mentioned the bailout bill DID have 500 million for ACORN. Can anyone confirm this?

The operative word in your statement is “FORCE.” And not with ballots and petitions and emails and all those beautiful kinds of things.

Let us not forget how much money 500 MEeeeellllion dollars is in light of the hundreds of beeeeliions that the goobernments is throwing around. 500 meeellion is enough to outright take over many countries, certainly enough to cause existential agitation here. And to hire the lawyers to defend against reprisals from we bourgeois reactionaries.

EAGLES UP, FOLKS.

Here the link to the fascist Obama/ACORN Office in YOUR state: ACORN OFFICES NATIONWIDE. FREEP THEM!! NOW AND UNTIL ELECTION DAY.

Go to the link, and on the left side is a state by state menu with addresses and phone numbers. Freep the hell out of these people.

Anything that Pelosi and Reid are involved in is something I cannot trust or believe in.

Since monies are going to Acorn (and the money flow to them must STOP), I wonder how much (if anything) is going to Planned Parenthood?

No wonder the "bailout" has very little to no confidence.

This 'acorn' deal is deeply disturbing, whether it's part of this particular bailout, or not. Why is Acorn being given one red cent?????

And I still want to know if Planned Parenthood is getting any money. This is all so sickening.

Obama spokesman on Live FOX TV five minutes JUST NOW after the end of the McCain speech in Wisconsin was VISIBLY SHAKEN and all freaked out. Very nervous. Said, "this is no solution to have these mob-like rallies" against Obama.

I swear the gal was about to lose it.

This is psy war at it's best. We have them "freaked". Lovin' it.

I wonder that too but my guess would be...in a general election, it’s between you and God who you vote for once you step in that booth.

In a primary you’re given a certain form with only dems names (or republicans) whichever the case may be...

We are definitely at the crisis stage. Demoralization has been finished for a while, destabilization has been acheived since last summer, and crisis is either now here, or will be very, very shortly. A terrorist attack would throw this country into martial law.

Let us not forget the Spanish model. An attack shortly before the election with the call “the government LIED!” was all it took to give the marxists control there. I fear it’s about to happen here.

am so sick of state documents that ask if I would like to register to vote.

“I completed out auto registration online the other day and it asked if I wanted to register to vote. I did some other stuff with state forms and the same thing. It is like non-stop in your face about voting. Of course I am registered to vote.”

I understand your frustration. It is becoming entirely too easy to register to vote and the parties do know who does and doesn’t vote, thereby opening the door to fraud. IMHO, though, I think it is time all the states purged their voter rolls and started over. It should begin in December and every person, excepting homebound invalids, who wants to register to vote should be required to show up at a government office, produce evidence of identification, address and citizenship and register to vote by their signature on the line. There should be no third-party registrations and the homebound should be allowed to have a government official come visit them after a doctor’s certification of their invalidity is produced. If we are not willing to do this over the next two years, I don’t think we would be responsible voters in the first place. Re-registration could be required every four or five years or something to clean out the voter lists of the deceased, moved-ons, those disqualified and mentally incompetent.

I just talked to my dad. He’s 85 and his lady friend is also 85. She got a call last night. They didn’t identify themselves but asked which candidate they are voting for. She told them “NEITHER ONE!”....The caller hung up...

Now the truth is that they’re both voting for McCain

Why the HELL is the Federal Government paying Acorn to register voters?

Here in Kern County, California, we have volunteers to do that. Haven't we always?

Who the hell choose 'Acorn'?????????????

So far they have 2100 fraudulent voter reg forms ............................just in Indiana (according to Fox News).

If this country is to be a victim of an attempted hijacking, as it seems these days, believe you me, there are PLENTY of Americans, in uniform and out of uniform, in the passenger cabin who are going to rise up and say "LET'S ROLL!"

The only outlet for my frustration is calling and giving it to the crooks and liars that seek to take over. If this is the way the game has to be played for now, then so be it. In the end it is all about getting both stories out there and demanding that the truth be heard. Godspeed FRiend. Keep speaking truth to power. (ugggh, I still can't believe that saying is now applicable to US)

Well, the way it works here is that they send out new voter registration cards before each election with a do-not-forward order so if the registrant isn’t at the address any more it gets returned and purged.

Getting third party registration groups out would be a big help.

One big problem is that too many got upset about low turnouts and bought into the notion that whatever improves turnout is good. This is how they got their shenanigans codified into law. Voting may be a right, but it is also a privilege and not to be taken lightly.

We’re about to lose the country, my FRiends.
