Mickey Mouse tried to register to vote in Florida this summer.
Orange County elections officials rejected his application, which was stamped with the logo of the nonprofit group ACORN.
Tow truck driver Newton Bell did register to vote in Orange County this summer. In the hands of ACORN, his paperwork went through without a hitch.
Two cases, two outcomes, each with a connection to ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.
Nationwide, ACORN is a favorite GOP target for allegations of voter registration fraud this year.
That's not new. Similar complaints followed the 2004 elections. A criminal investigation in Florida found no evidence of fraud. ACORN even has a cameo role in the scandal over the 2006 firings of several U.S. attorneys by the Bush Justice Department.
Under attack again, ACORN leaders defend their work. Often, they say, things are as not simple as they're portrayed.

VOTE BABY VOTE!!!!
But they’re non-partisan, don’t you know.
They might as well register Mickey Mouse. After all, they have Goofy as their candidate.
Every voter registration card that originated from ACORN should be thrown out. Some smart lawyer needs to file a federal suit and get these thrown out.
I thought this was a fake story until I heard Mickey sing his new theme:
I will vote
You should, too
O-B-A-M-A
Story from the St. Petersbug Times?
I wouldn’t be surprised if the reporter was out there helping ACORN sign up more voters!
Not only vote, but realize there will need to be a massive effort to prevent voter fraud from paying off for the ‘rats.

Now the top headline on Drudge.
What the heck, doesn’t Mickey live in Florida?
Mickey Mouse is black. This is a clear case of the Republicans trying to disenfranchise blacks. It's RACISM!!!
Did you notice the overall defensive tone of the article?
Its basic conclusion is yes, once in a while there’s a fake name or two (or several hundred), but they end up registering real people once in a while and do all these great things, so what’s the fuss?
isn’t charlie crist in disneyworld ths weekend?
this will be a picture rich joke environment for “florida governor new voter outreach”
We still need to tie ACORN to democrats, obama, a barney frank via the mortgage crash.

FYI

Disneyworld is its own seperate municipality in FL. As far as I know there are no residents and thus NO VOTERS in this municipality. Perhaps they need to check to see how many residents are listed as registered voters.

Court papers are public documents.
If a lawyer filed papers in court, then obama’s name should be on the courts records as lawyer.
If it was federal, the pacer system may not have the actual documents but it may have the counsel of record list.
for those in rio linda: pacer is the federal online court records which can be accessed via the internet.
The Friends just played the clip of Barry telling the ACORN group that they will shape his administration even before he is inaugurated. Bob Beckell starts out spinning away for ACORN how they are just the nicest folks who are just community organizers when Brian picks up his laptop and shows him this page on Drudge. The Repub pundit Andrea Tantaros says—nice spin, Bob—and proceeds to say that the acorn doesn’t fall far from Obama and Americans are now seeing how this scandal is connected to the housing crisis.

from the chicago sun-times
“obama represented Calivin roberson in a 1994 lawsuit against citibank, charging the bank systematically denied mtgs to african-american applicants and others from minority neighborhoods”
sun-times: http://www.suntimes.com/news/politics/obama/700499,CST-NWS-Obama-law17.article#
i dont know much about this website, but its the quickest link to ACORN and the lawsuit. the article states:
“ACORN and Obama also go way back
ACORN was a recipient of grants from Chicagos Woods Funds; Obama was a community organizer/trainer of ACORN staff; and his legal firm represented ACORN in lawsuits against banks, accused of redlining. Obama himself, in what constitutes his only personal trial attorney experience, represented Calvin Roberson in just such a lawsuit against CitiBank.”
