The Obama campaign recently admitted that it paid an affiliate of ACORN, the controversial community organizer that Obama represented in Chicago, more than $832,000 for voter turnout work during the primaries. The campaign initially claimed the money had been spent on staging, sound and light and advance work.
State and federal law enforcement in 11 states are investigating allegations of voter registration fraud against the Obama campaign. ACORN workers repeatedly registered voters in the name of Mickey Mouse, and registered the entire starting lineup of the Dallas Cowboys twice: once in Nevada, and again in Minnesota.

David Hemel, Joel Speyer, Heather Halstead and Marc Gustafson?
Treason and fraud, again?
What happened to the days of boiling tar and chicken feathers?
Seems the Hillary supporters understand what we’ve been talking about all along.
Like in the Berg case there is only a "vague" sense that things would be any better/worse under a Hillary regime or an Obama regime.
How are so many “conservatives” (Ron Paul types) still missing it?
An Obama victory is only possible with a divided right... So why is the right still divided a week before the election?
“What happened to the days of boiling tar and chicken feathers? ...”
Is that all you want to do? If so, turn them over to me when you’re done.
“Seems the Hillary supporters understand what weve been talking about all along”.
...it does indeed! Perhaps a good sign that some of the articles I’ve been reading about Hillary backers staying true to the dems may be wrong. It sounds like Palin/McCain may be able to count on their votes.
How is it that “the voters” don’t have “legal standing?”
Not me... I prefer drawn and quartered...

Excerpt:
Project Vote hires Acorn to do voter registration work on its behalf, and the two groups say they have registered 1.3 million voters this year
As a federally tax-exempt charity, Project Vote is subject to prohibitions on partisan political activity. But Acorn, which is a nonprofit membership corporation under Louisiana law, though subject to federal taxation, is not bound by the same restrictions.
(Obama headed the start up of Project Vote, which gave us the Clintons)
Official ACORN spokesperson.
How is it that the voters dont have legal standing?
Because according to the US Constitution “the voters” don’t elect the President. The members of the Electoral College elect the President, and it’s a good thing too. If “the voters” elected the President, Republicans would have a much harder time winning, and Gore would have been elected in 2000.
Wait....
“The people” are the government of the United States. As such, “the people” have “no standing” to uphold the Constitution?
Don’t forget about Operation Chaos. I believe its still happening for the sake of the USA.
Was that the reason given in the Berg lawsuit in Pa. ? I didn’t read that part.
Pardon my ignorance on “Operation Chaos” but how does that benefit us? If you don’t have time or patience to explain, it’s alright.
The people are the government of the United States. As such, the people have no standing to uphold the Constitution?
No, the US is NOT a democracy. The people give rights and powers to the government in “Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, ensure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity.”
The people are not the government. The government of the United States is defined in the US Constitution. My guess is that if Obama wins the electio, once the Electoral College meets, it may be possible for this question to be brought up again.
Supposedly only the someone as high up as the Justice Department can file such a suit.
Sounds like insiders protecting insiders.
