http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Harshbarger

Harshbarger found public prominence and political success, like Janet Reno, by prosecuting cases in the day care sex abuse hysteria of the 1980s.[citation needed] He obtained the conviction of Gerald Amirault and other employees of the Fells Acres Day Care Center in Malden, Massachusetts.[citation needed] The Amirault conviction has been widely criticized as a gross miscarriage of justice by publications as politically diverse as The Wall Street Journal (e.g., April 30, 2004) and The Nation (e.g., Feb. 28, 2002).

From Wiki.....
He was the Democratic nominee for Governor of Massachusetts in the 1998 gubernatorial election. He lost in a close race to incumbent Republican Governor Paul Celucci[2]. Afterwards, Harshbarger served as president of the public interest organization Common Cause for three years, where he spearheaded the successful push for campaign finance reform in 2002 (McCain-Feingold).
That’s all I have to know ..

Harshbarger should not be trusted. He is a totally political animal and will do anything to increase his inside connections and the possibility of some kind of political comeback. Somebody needs to check out his links to Rathke, Soros, SEIU, et al. If they are there, then we should create a stink sooner rather than later.

When confronted with a potential devastating series of official inquiries by either law enforcement or government legislative bodies, it has become common practice for target organizations to hire outside counsel to do an “independent inquiry” and make those results known. It generally forestalls what might be an adversarial relationship with those doing the investigation and delays any action when the matter is hot. The ACORN report will be made available to Congress. If Congress was truly interested in the sufficiency of the internal inquiry, they should test the accuracy of the report or use it for lead material. If anyone thinks the Democrat led Congress is interested in getting to the truth of this matter, they need a reality check. (remember, Conyers said he would look into ACORN over a year ago and then decided not to do it). The ACORN inquiry will take just enough time for the matter to go away, the results will get a cursory hearing and it will be business as usual IMO.

Meanwhile, the Holder led DOJ will say they are awaiting the results of internal inquiry before determining if substantial violations of the federal criminal code have been violated. In other words, on hold pending burial.

Somebody should ask the Amirault family what they think of Scott Harshbarger.

If ACORN chose the investigator, he cannot be independent.

This is meaningless. ACORN investigating itself should not be taken seriously, and is certainly not news. This guy is a liberal, so there is nothing independent about him when it comes to a group closely associated with liberal politics.

From Wikipedia:

Luther Scott Harshbarger (born December 1, 1941, in New Haven, Connecticut) is a lawyer and a Democratic politician from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Harshbarger attended Harvard College and Harvard Law School[1]. He was first elected as District Attorney (DA) of Middlesex County, Massachusetts in 1982, defeating incumbent DA John Droney in the Democratic primary. He was re-elected in 1986.

Harshbarger found public prominence and political success, like Janet Reno, by prosecuting cases in the day care sex abuse hysteria of the 1980s.[citation needed] He obtained the conviction of Gerald Amirault and other employees of the Fells Acres Day Care Center in Malden, Massachusetts.[citation needed] The Amirault conviction has been widely criticized as a gross miscarriage of justice by publications as politically diverse as The Wall Street Journal (e.g., April 30, 2004) and The Nation (e.g., Feb. 28, 2002).

In 1990 he was elected Attorney General of Massachusetts, again defeating the incumbent, this time James Shannon, in the Democratic primary. He was re-elected in 1994 with 72 percent of the vote, and served from 1991 until 1999.[citation needed]

He was the Democratic nominee for Governor of Massachusetts in the 1998 gubernatorial election. He lost in a close race to incumbent Republican Governor Paul Celucci[2]. Afterwards, Harshbarger served as president of the public interest organization Common Cause for three years, where he spearheaded the successful push for campaign finance reform in 2002 (McCain-Feingold).

Since 2003, Harshbarger has practiced law in the private sector, focusing on corporate governance and related issues. He is currently Senior Counsel to the Firm at Proskauer Rose LLP[3] in Boston, MA.

Harshbarger! This scumbag declared guns "defective consumer products" and then banned the sale and possession of most handguns in Massachusetts. He is the worst sort of loathsome Marxist dictator. The fix is in with ACORN. He will find them a "wonderful" organization, clear of any fault or scandal.

Did anyone else notice that when “Big” Bertha Lewis was on “Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace” that she could not look her confronter, Congressman Darrel Issa (R-CA) in the eye one time? She did not look at him one time. She would not answer him indirectly; she looked at Chris Wallace and gave an incoherent response to Congressman Issa’s questions and/or statements. She is Affirmative Action in action.

I went to www.gradegov.com and gave Congressman Issa an “A” and sent an e-mail along with it telling him to keep up the good work.
