ACORN Turns in Florida Workers on Voter Fraud Charges
FOXNEWS.COM ^ | 09/09/09 | FOXNEWS

Arrest warrants have been issued in Miami for 11 people suspected of falsifying information on hundreds of voter registration cards last year. The FBI and state authorities were making arrests Wednesday. The workers being sought were hired to register voters by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN. Prosecutors say they were first notified by ACORN about problems with workers in June 2008. Republicans and conservative activists have accused ACORN of fraud in voter registration drives around the country. ACORN officials say the Florida case proves the organization is committed to an honest process. The case involved nearly 900 fraudulent voter cards in the Homestead area.

I think it’s going to be something even bigger, but yes, it would be WONDERFUL is ACORN was disbanded and outlawed due to RICO laws! LOL!

from the article:
Republicans and conservative activists have accused ACORN of fraud in voter registration drives around the country.

Typical biased AP.

First off, I resent being labeld an, "activist" when pointing out VOTER FRAUD. Calling attention to VOTER FRAUD is the duty of every American citizen.

Secondly, Nevada Democrat Attorney General or District Attorney, and that's the only one I casually know about, is also prosecuting VOTER FRAUD by ACORN.

Shame on AP for biased reporting to push a political agenda.

Obama was Acorn's lead attorney.
Obama was Acorn's lead trainer.

Acorn is engaged in illegal activities.

Do the math.

Groups of their ilk have been appropriated $5.7B over 6 years if its bill has been put into law.

Ahhhhsoooo. Vewy Good.

If this is right then that means someone is giving Beck a heads-up from the inside, no?

That thought gives me warm fuzzies.

Can they determine how many of the “fake voters” actually voted in the last election?

There may be more going on here... it is Floriduh, after all.

obammy gave them 4.75 BILLION to work with during the next elections. If they could do that with a few million, the sky is the limit with 4.75 BILLION. There will never be another real election until these Pinko groups are brought down.

I just want this organization destroyed.

And they should be, along with their other little groups they are tied in with. The shadow government is getting bigger than our real government and that can only lead to one thing.

I love the way they try to turn this into a plus, as if these are the only acorns committing fraud. That’s not even spin—that’s tying the facts into a pretzel.

Because the chit had already hit the fan by the time Election Day came around. That doesn’t mean that other fraudulent registrations all around the country weren’t actually used to vote.

This media crap MUST stop. I’ll say it again, if we don’t stop this Commie behavior of the media, we are in deep sh*t. It’s time to call them out and take the tea parties to their doorsteps. They aren’t going to call each other out, and don’t count on Fox to do it. It’s up to us, we, the people.

So ACORN throws a few of their volunteers under the bus in an attempt to throw investigators off the scent?

(Nice mixture of metaphors, don't you think?)

You’re right: ACORN didn’t posture that they hire accountable people, did they? Nosiree.

Call the Catholic Campaign for Human Development in Washington (part of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops) and ask them to supply you with the list of all the grants given to ACORN over the past 15 years. That’s a good place to start. Call 202.541.3000
