BATON ROUGE - Governor Bobby Jindal has issued an executive order cutting off current and future state funding to ACORN following a series of incidents captured on videotape and the subpoena of documents from the group’s national headquarters in New Orleans by the state attorney general's office.

The executive order states that, “ACORN’s actions make clear that financial involvement with ACORN is contrary to the public policy of the State of Louisiana and the best interests of its citizens.”

Wisconsin is jumping on board and doing some lawsuit filing/investigations too, so that’s at least ONE more state waking up! :)

Good for Jindal. Those ACORN thugs have been bleeding Katrina victims for far too long.

Source on the Wisconsin legwork? I haven’t seen it outside the vote fraud prosecutions that have been ongoing.

Btw, Gwen Moore, the congresswoman from Milwaukee’s south side voted today to continue funding. She stacked her town hall on healthcare with SEIU and other union thugs.

Not suprisingly, the MJS lapped up the set up and gushed at the overwhelming support for obamacare in Milwaukee.

why stop at cutting off future funding, DEMAND they return what they have already.

Any ties between ACORN and Blanco? What Blanco did during Katrina amounted to deliberate obstruction and endangerment - for some vain political motive. I suspect not wanting to be seen taking aid from a Republican president and calling it “Bush’s fault”.

We all need to be calling and writing our state governors and state attorney generals offices to cut off funding and open tax fraud and RICO investigations.

And it's the sound of crickets from Charlie Crist in Florida.

Perhaps his public 2008 statements of appoval of ACORN's involvement in the 2008 Florida voter registration process is tricky to explain now?

James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles are second only to Obama in causing people to lose their jobs.
