the group's main affiliate is operating out of a former New Orleans funeral home and bringing in millions of taxpayer dollars. The Service Employees International Union's New Orleans headquarters location that also houses ACORN is supposed to be home to more than 270 related corporations and non-profits... Wade Rathke, a New Orleans resident, is founder of ACORN and also founder and chief organizer of Service Employees International Union, which donated $33 million to President Obama's campaign last year... According to the New York Times, [Rathke] failed to notify police in 2000 when he learned that his brother Dale, ACORN's chief financial officer, had embezzled $948,600 from Citizens Consulting Inc., the ACORN affiliate that handles its financial affairs.

SEIU is the organization that Blago mentioned on the tapes. He seemed so sure that The Marxist zer0 would get him a job there. It’s like a big national mafia. ACORN and affiliates get bigger every day and are a HUGE danger to this country. We have to expose them and stop them or there is little hope.
Nice ideas Labyrinthos. I never heard of Qui Tam. Thanks for the definition.
The Federal False Claim Act, which codifies the commonlaw writ of Qui Tam, has been used most frequently in recent years by whistleblowers to prosecute defense contractors that have covered up manufacturing and design defects. Qui Tam can, however, be used on just about any federal contract, includng contracts to count heads for the Census Bureau.

Unbelievable Obama is for such corruption yet pin points Bush as an evil man.

shezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...is there anyone at home at DOJ or are they too busy “investigating” 80 yr. old WWII veterans who might be “terrorists”? LMAO
It don’t know if this has anything to do with not having enough Republicans capable of being appointees such as your reference to the Reagan administration, but do you think that encouraging more young conservatives to take political and government oriented college courses could make a difference? The Democrats have the Kennedy School of Government, is there anything like that for conservatives? What are the breeding grounds for young future conservative leaders in all levels of government.
Night of the Living Rathkes.
