the so called media should be embarrassed.

these two with a small hidden camera exposed this corrupt group and have done more investigative journalism together than the whole of the so called MSM

The Chicago Mafia must really be beholden to ACORN if Burris and Durbin both voted no. Interesting.

I’m curious as to who didn’t vote at all.

You beg to differ with what? I merely stated that Michelle Malkin is covering the vote, for those who wanted to follow along.

Durbin is a communist...the only time I have ever seen the a**hole smile is when he is shaking hands with Ortega or Castro.

I love this from hotair!

http://hotair.com/archives/2009/09/14/breaking-senate-votes-to-cut-off-federal-funding-for-acorn/

The big question will be whether the House follows suit. Nancy Pelosi may not be inclined to let an amendment come to the floor, but James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles may not be done yet, either. A few more of these videos and even Pelosi will have little choice but to slam the door on ACORN. The big test will be whether the Johanns amendment survives a conference committee. This isn’t over yet.

Update: Thanks to Sean Hackbarth, we have the list of seven nays on the amendment so that the Child-Whoring Pimp Assitance 7 can be publicly identified:

Dick Durbin (D-IL)
Roland Burris (D-IL)
Robert Casey (D-PA)
Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY)
Patrick Leahy (D-VT)
Bernie Sanders (I-VT)
Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI)

So can we assume that Illinois and Vermont are especially sympathetic to child-whoring pimp assistance? (Yes, I think we can!)

Vote Results for Senate Amendment 2355 Prohibiting use of funds to fund the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN).

As stated previously, ACORN already changed their name because it was tarnished by voter registration fraud allegations.

One Rathke brother sits at the top of ACORN/COI and the other Rathke brother sits at the top of the SEIU.
