Is ACORN Intentionally Structured As a Criminal Enterprise?
U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Oversight and Government Reform ^ | July 20th 2009 | Committee Staff

Posted on 09/15/2009 6:39:45 PM PDT by rob777

Here is a July 2009 congressional report -- titled "Is ACORN Intentionally Structured As a Criminal Enterprise?" -- that accused ACORN of massive fraud, money laundering, and racketeering directed from the highest levels of the organization's management.

It appears that they have been investigated, but nothing seems to have been done until the light got shined on the corruption.

I wonder if Eric Holder will enforce the RICO statues against acorn...under indictment in 13 states for voter fraud, 3 states for money laundering, the recent allegations regarding child prostitution, slavery, etc.,..

I crack me up.

Yes, and so is the Democratic party which I have said for the longest time is the largest organized crime group in this country!

Acorn has just become one of its best funded thug criminal arms.

Obama should be hounded until he disavows all ties to Acorn due to its blatant criminal activities.

Ironically, having Obama elected was a bad thing for ACORN. Now the bright light of truth is shining into their operations.

Corrected: It appears that they have been investigated, but nothing seems to have been will be done until an independent audit got is completed exposing massive corruption within the multitude of scam companies run by the Radke brothers.
