Glenn Beck | 10/10/2008 | N/A

Posted on 10/10/2008 7:47:56 AM PDT by taildragger

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

Look, free speech is dead or at least dormant right now. It is not a good time to give ANYONE any information. We don’t know who is compiling lists.

Id settle for just having them run this election...

Set up voting stations and REQUIRE Identification, then stain the hands of those who voted. That means NO absentee ballots. If you cant be there to vote, you dont vote.

Every Ballot remains under US MIlitary control at ALL times. No exceptions. This is, after all, a matter of national security.

If ACORN got a dime in that deal, as far as I’m concerned, its an act of war. A Revolutionary War!

I hope you are wrong about losing our country. It would take a lot more than losing this election to cause us to lose it but it would happen if we give up—before or after the election. This country has been preserved before through what can only be termed miracles and I am not willing to believe that miracles have ceased so long as this country is a bastian of religious freedom and liberty. Miracles might cease if the vast majority of the country were willing to toss out liberty but so far only about half the country is trending in that direction.

Well, the other side of your viewpoint is what somebody said, that resisting now may be like Peter cutting off the ear of the servant of the High Priest - if something is inevitable, resistance is futile.

I am not to that point yet. My words were intended to be encouraging, not discouraging.

It is part of the mandatory compliance with the Motor Voter las.

That law is one of the worst ever considered in the country.

Glad to hear that. We need good people to hang in there. I am not willing to be pessimistic quite yet. After all, Abraham managed to bargain for sparing Sodom if just ten righteous people could be found therein. It turned out there weren’t that many righteous there but I tend to believe that so long as a significant core of this people try to live according to God’s word, then He will still be a God of miracles. That doesn’t mean McCain will win but it might mean Obama, if elected, would be thwarted in enacting his full intentions.

IF ACORN GOT A CENT FROM THIS BAILOUT....WE NEED TO TAKE TO THE STREETS. SIGNS ON OUR CARS AND EVERYONE WILL NEED TO CALL THERE SENATORS AND CONGRESSMEN....

Make signs to tape on inside of top or bottom of back window (no obstruction of view -- or inside back window of car>

VOTE NO ACORN
VOTE NO OBAMA
NO DEMOCRATS

The only way Barack Obama will be elected President is for us to fail to tell enough voters.

continuously developing, anti-American alliances...

Barack Obama & the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis

Listen to this Interview of James Simpson, by Sandy Rios, Tuesday 9/30 - WYLL 1160AM, Chicago, IL
From http://www.culturecampaign.com/culturecorner.aspx

Simpson documents his research in his article, providing Web links. He provides a rough flow chart.

"CHANGE"

Further corroboration on Obama & The Cloward-Piven Strategy:

Obama, Voter Fraud & Mortgage Meltdown, by James H. Walsh, former federal prosecutor.

On Barack Obama's Marxist connections in Chicago

Web Archives Confirm Barack Obama Was Member Of [Marxist] Socialist 'New Party' In 1996

On Alice Palmer, the South Side's Marxist State Senator, Who Hand Picked Barack Obama to Succeed Her

More on Obama's Marxist alliance with Radical Islamists:

Barack Obama campaigning with taxpayers' money for Raila Odinga, Marxist & pro-Islamist, despotic leader in Kenya

Barack Obama & Khalid Al-Mansour (old Black Panther comrade of Ayers & Dohrn and likely of Alice Palmer) who raised funds to get Obama into Harvard

And then there are... Herbert and Marion Sandler, the Pritzkers, and the "loose lips" of Charles Schumer and Harry Reid (and Henry Paulson is not above suspicion, with his control-freak power play and Goldman Sachs cronyism).

Get these breakthrough items out to everyone you know (or anything even more informative that comes up) -- voters, media, officials and staff of both parties, everyone. We have time if we act now.

If ACORN is an itty bitty group then it doesn’t need $500 million and should return the subsidy to the taxpayers immediately.

So let me get this straight, between ACORN and Planned Parenthood we are now giving them close to $1 billion a year in federal tax money?

Obama was just at a rally saying “the american people will not be hoodwinked.” Meanwhile, Fox is reporting that the Obama campaign gave 800 million to Acorn.

Also...

What they are doing is better described as a coup.

The coup d’état succeeds if its opponents fail to thwart the usurpers, allowing them to consolidate their positions, obtain the surrender of the overthrown government or acquiescence of the populace and the surviving armed forces, and thus claim legitimacy.

The rigging of this election by a government funded organization amounts to a Coup attempt by the Democrats (socialists) to take over teh government of this country.

In MY book that calls for an ARMED response!!

***
The DNC and Obama and his bots are attempting a coup, you are right! Pelosi, Reid, Frank,,,all of the crooks want to overthrow the gov’t as it stands and put their own version of the constitution in. It is just one step short of a military power grab, it’s a political coup, you nailed it!

“I would also like to see some of these fraudulent canvasers brought into a court and charged with voter fraud. It is a national law not to tamper with elections, isn’t it?”

I LIKE THE FOLLOWING APPROACH TAKEN BY Allegheny County police in Pittsburgh, PA——prosecute them for a crime—FORGERY!

County Police Investigate ACORN Over Voter Fraud Allegations (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)
WPXI-TV ^ | October 9, 2008

http://www.wpxi.com/news/17680532/detail.html

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. They’re forgeries.”
