I BELIEVE IT GOES DEEPER...the libs, the blacks on the “democrat plantation”, especially the lefties and the MSM are so used to ‘gettin’ over on the man and copping whatever we can and doing everything illegally ..that they really knew about Acorn in a general way and thought, well, that’s what we do.
we have screwed up people who think they are “helping the downtrodden” while the others are selfishly getting some gravy on the way.
