MIAMI Armed with a tip from the grassroots group ACORN about its own workers, authorities on Wednesday began arresting 11 people suspected of falsifying hundreds of voter applications during a registration drive last year.
ACORN, which stands for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, has long been accused by Republican and conservative activists fed by talk-radio hosts of fraudulently registering voters. But Miami-Dade prosecutors gave credit to the group for coming forward and ACORN officials said they felt vindicated.
"It shows that we take the integrity of our voter registration work with the utmost seriousness," said ACORN spokesman Brian Kettenring. "We turn in people who try to game the system."

TAKE ACTION NOW - NO MORE SITTING ON THE SIDELINES
The thing we have to do now, without any hesitation, is vote out this current Congress in 2010. Then take back our Nation in 2012. If we do not mobilize ourselves and others now to do this in ways far beyond where most of us have ever engaged in political matters, we will lose this country. And have ourselves to blame.
FRIENDS, WE CAN NO LONGER JUST 'PREACH TO THE CHOIR' -- WE MUST CARRY THIS MESSAGE TO ALL WE KNOW AND ACT NOW. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

Too late.
The rats will be jumping ship now. Who got ACORN money as campaign contributions?
ACORN has all the appearance of a criminal syndicate.

“It shows that we take the integrity of our voter registration work with the utmost seriousness,”
LOL.. yeah, right ... at least until the next election.
ACORN was built to be an enforcement, recruitment and vote-guarantee arm of any Socialist or Marxist coming up the pike. They are corrupt to the core. .. and ALL TAX SUBSIDIES NEED TO BE PULLED!

ACRIME is getting taken out by a couple of kids. Now they may lose the $8 Billion. Then $oro$ would have to fund the whole thing.

Figure at least twenty five million fraud voters outstanding NATIONWIDE. The only way to fix this is to require picture id and purple painted thumbs like in IRAQ.

As I recall there were at least 30,000 garbage voter registrations in Oakland county Michigan alone. Here in Jackson county we had a guy picked up on an unrelated parole violation who admitted to filling out hundreds of registration forms himself.
BTW being on parole makes it illegal for him to even sign a petition so its pretty likely that it was legal to hire him to register people to vote.

Those Hillary PUMA supporters know that BOZerO and his ACORN underlings worked their magical fraud routines to deep six her nomination last year.
