Glenn Beck said they would change their name and burrow further underground when the spotlight was shown on their activities.

My thoughts exactly. An appropriate name. Did they try to do that?

I’ve seen a number of these individuals slinking around Chambersburg, PA in the last week. There seems to be some organizing underway.

I’m detecting a bit of a trend here. Recently, the North Carolina Academy of Trial Lawyers changed its name to the North Carolina Academy of Justice. It’s still the same old plaintiff’s bar, just with a new, euphemistic, and faintly Orwellian name.

Of course, the COI will probably have to change their name again before long. The label “community organizer” is rapidly gaining similar notoriety and infamy in the public mind to the label “trial lawyer.”

Communist Obomamaniac Insurrectionists sounds good also.

Like our president, the numerous name changes are needed to keep the fraud going.

Our President has used in part:

Barack H Obama , Barack Hussein Obama II , Barack H Obama II , Barry Obama and Barry Soetoro .

Nuts by any other name are still nuts.

This always happens with liberals once their legitimate name is dirtied.

Other examples:

“Global Warming” is now “Climate Change”
“Liberal” is now “Progressive”

To these freaks, all you need to do to put all the negatives aside is to change the name. It does, at least, force the competition to work a while to demonize the new namesake, though.

Just make sure whenever you mention the new name of these criminals that you add in that they were formerly known as ACORN.

Community Organizers for Reform Now aka CORN , formerly known as ACORN.
