Here's an idea: Stage the next round of tea parties at the local ACORN offices around the country.

Here's another idea: Closely monitor ACORN’s payment requisitions to the United States Government and then use “qui tam” to put ACORN on the run and hopefully out of business. (”Qui tam” basically gives citizen taxpayers the right to sue contractors on behalf of the United States Government to recover funds that have been fraudulently obtained in the performance of federal contracts. If the government fails to commence legal action within a certain time after receiving notice of the fraud from the citizen taxpayer, then the taxpayer can commence a lawsuit on the government's behalf and keep part of the recovery, which may includes attorneys fees, as a bounty.)

Here's a third idea: Compete against ACORN for public contracts and then challenge every contract that is awarded to ACORN on the ground that ACORN is not a “qualified contractor” because it has repeatedly engaged in fraud at the management level.

Labyrinthos, Absolutely excellent ideas!

I especially like the Qui Tam and the direct competition suggestions.
