FOX News Channel reports: Griff Jenkins covered ACORN's 39th Anniversary Gala Awards honoring Sen. Charles Schumer, Rep. Luis Guiterrez and Rep. Maxine Waters at the National Education Association building in Washington, D.C. on June 17, 2009. Our cameras were banned from the event, but ACORN allowed far-left bloggers to attend. A confrontation occurred outside the building.

Glenn Beck will discuss this on his show today at 5pm.

Yes. And what do they call the awards? “The Cornies?”

I think that should be spelled, "The Commies."

[LuxMaker]

Yes but I bet ABC got first class access.

[Always Right]

ACORN and all these community organizations are ground zero for the corrupt liberal take over of this country.

[cricket]

No question they are emboldened by 'our Dear Leader'; after all; they threatened opposition 'voters' at voting precincts; with weapons in hand; and were duly rewarded for their efforts.

It is amazing; nonetheless; that none of our esteemed Representative Leadership appeared and protested on 'Freedom's'behalf; particularly since this celebration, was no doubt; paid for by our tax dollars.

Think we have seen 'nothing yet' as to what they can and will 'muster' on behalf of their agenda. Am sure their eyes get misty; just watching Iranians in the street. . .

“tennants”?

I assume you mean tenets - I couldn’t find a definition in the English online dictionary for tennants.

no offense, I’ve just seen this misuse several times lately on FR...

Perfect/lol/sigh. . .

Lie? Obamma? Only when he opens his mouth.

Sometimes; only his lips move; but you can read them; and he is still lying. He lies in his sleep as well; said the other day; he is losing sleep, worrying. . .

[combat_boots]

It’s not lying if you are merely reading and concentrating on your accent and pronunciation. At the moment you say the word, it is literally just a word. Therefore, intent never registers because there is no meaning, only inflection and phraseology.

PINGING the COMRADES and thank you to Red_Devil 232 for the heads up!

Acorn is Tammany Hall revisited.

I should post my History paper I think, I tied ACORN to Tammany Hall.

[GingisK]

...no offense, I’ve just seen this misuse several times lately on FR...

I'd look like a real ass without Word's spell check. ;-D

I didn't run that post through the mill. Shoot me.

[JimRed]

Probably would not allow an actual Jew into the gala ... they did award upChuck Schumer an award during the festivities, which I'm sure he is quite proud of.

Chuck the Schmuck is as much a Jew as a KKK Kleegle is a Christian.

How much of our tax money goes to ACORN but we are not allowed to see how it is spent?!

Porkulus alone allocated $2 billion for "neighborhood stabilization program", money for groups like ACORN.

Then we have all of the indirect payoffs to ACORN like Bank of America who gave $2MM to ACORN (see below).

Economic emergency: For efforts to prevent foreclosures and educate people about finances and purchasing homes: $2,000,000 to Acorn Housing Corporation (Chicago, Illinois) from Bank of America. 1/29/2009.

ACORN gala? We're all paying for those microphones.

That said. . .whatever said; and however; think there is no question Obama speaks always; with the intent to deceive.

[jurroppi1]

Hey you never know - I’ve seen more words that I’d never heard of here than anywhere else on the web, so I thought I’d ask. I use Firefox and the check spelling function (works on the fly like word’s spell checker. that catches most things, but it is only as good as the dictionary used.

[smokingfrog]

A POS..... and the flies know it!

That's a tag line.
