If ACORN is doing the counting why not just let them write down any number they want, and save them the trouble of committing farce?
Hard to believe this won’t rate a court challenge. I’m betting that in the end Justice Kennedy (the most powerful judge in the world since he is the Supreme Court swing vote) will decide our fate. I would rather leave it up to Scalia or Roberts.
Why don’t we compromise and only count 3/5 of the illegals??
I’ve seen people here defend this. “Good! The census is to show who is here! Not who we WISH was here.”
Looks like Congressmen will be rationed. We know the big winners. Who will be the big losers?
AMERICA
I saw a guy on Sean Hannity’s FNC show saying, “Sean, the constitution said we were 3/5ths of a person! That is wrong!” Sean didn’t even challenge him on how that was a move to limit the power of the slaveholding states. That is one of the most misunderstood things in US history and nobody wants to set the record straight.
This will lead to massive re-districting by state legislatures before the 2012 election..
We may vote Republicans into Congress in 2010, but by 2012 it will be all over for the Congressional GOP.
You can also expect “sampling”
Personally, in California the parasites (public employees and public assistance types) still haven't got the message that they can't keep getting more and more of the money the honest taxpayers don't have.
I hope the federal spigot is also dry.
With open primaries, its ALL over
Illegals Will be Counted in the U.S. Census
Newsmax ^ | 8/11/09
They should be counted.
We need to know where law enforcement efforts should be taking place.
We need to know which states are harboring criminals
But under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should an illegal criminal aliens count towards representation. They are not represented because they legally, are not here and do not exist.
On the San Antonio Craigslist MALDEF (Mexican American Legal Defense Fund) is looking to hire a Community Activist/Media Specialist to to promote the Latino community’s participation in the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of the Census decennial population count in 2010.
I notice it never uses the word Hispanic Speaking Citizens, just communities & population.

Welcome to the end of the Republic folks. It was a fairly good run.
If this scam La Raza Sensus is used then it is all over. I will ignore the census. They can threaten me - but I will not participate.
I am a little ignorant on redistricting. Does this mean they will combine smaller conservative rural districts and give more congressmen to heavily urban and illegal infested areas? If that is the case, Conservatism is dead, especially if not only these illegals get counted, but they get amnesty and the right to vote.

We need to fight them every step like DeathCare.
The reality is, it doesn’t matter.
The census will in no way be accurate.
Like voter registration the amount of fraud will be staggering and render any number at the end meaningless.
That's how the Secretary of State (Jennifer Brunner) counted votes in the 2008 election here in Ohio.
