Like rats deserting a sinking ship, ACORN's many enablers over the years are racing for the exits as the scope of the organization's shenanigans come to light.
Even leftist fellow-traveler -- and, until now, stalwart ACORN defender -- Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) is squirming.
What took them so long? We've been warning about the group for ages.

I appreciate the encouraging words!
“I am surprised they are deserting. I would have expected them to circle the wagons.”
Can we please have this be the “at the end of the day” story of the Obama administration’s relationship with the media?
I can't see how fueling our hopelessness and impotence in these dangerous times can be helpful. That's what the other side is trying to do by diminishing the townhalls and Washington march. The men who founded this country had an attitude of making a difference, I'd like to personally shoot for that as well.
Just picked this comment but it seems like these types of comments are the majority these days, not just here, on all conservative boards. Nothing personal. IMHO
TheAcorn staff are simply abandoniong Acorn like rats from a sinking ship and heading for COI-TUS ( Community Organizers International-The United States)
They will conduct the same destructive activity but with a security component to keep investigatve reporters out.
Now the real social war starts.
YOU ARE EXACTLY RIGHT. ENOUGH OF THIS SNARKY, DOWN-IN-THE-MOUTH, “WOE IS ME”, “WE LOST” COMMENTARY. IF THE MILITARY WENT INTO BATTLES WITH NEGATIVE, “ALL IS LOST”, “WE’RE GOING TO LOSE” WAR CRIES, DAMN, NO BATTLES WOULD BE WON.
KEEP THE BATTLE CRY UPBEAT, REPORT THE FACTS, HAVE A GAME PLAN AND FOLLOW THROUGH. THIS IS AN UP AND DOWN FIGHT FOR OUR LIVES AND FREEDOM, UNDERSTAND IT AS SUCH, AND DO NOT DWELL ON THE NEGATIVE. LET’S HEAR IT FOR POSITIVE INPUT ON HOW THIS DAMN WAR WE’RE FIGHTING WITH THE COMMUNIST WHITE HOUSE CAN BE WON! HOOAH!
Riiiiiiiiight.
And where are they all going? Concerned Women for America? The Christian Coalition? Athletes in Action?
Grassley uncovered some big info about them shifting funds from charitable to political organizations.

Recall how much trouble Gingrich got in for just the HINT of this...Let’s nail ‘em to the wall, as they did Gingrich for something much, much less pernicious...
And where are they all going? Concerned Women for America? The Christian Coalition? Athletes in Action?
++++++++++++++++
lol. Well - they are rats - and as long as they’re vacating what was an effective position - I could care less where they go!
...pound them with fury wherever they try to hide. That is how you put an end to corruption
++++++++++++
Right. This is not an easy task, is it? And it won’t be easy in this case. No matter how obvious and evident is the corruption that is assualting our sensibilities.
The ship will be renamed and have another crew.

Only if we let ‘em.
—He also claims he hadn’t closely read a letter with his signature on it that
**The Democrat Official Stock Answer.
Van Jones didn’t read the 911 Truther petition that he signed, either.

Morons. No one else gets away with the crap they do. Thank you Formerly Main Stream Media (FMSM)...your traiterous acts will speak ill of you in history.
They create a new organization which assimilates the aspects and assets of the former.

A bit like the Al Qaeda web - in more ways than one...true believers (socialism) right? Etc..
A white, male Republican speaker would have been asked to resign over that.

There are distressing double standards going on in this country. It is a shame that Dr. King’s dreams are not being lived out [’I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin [nor their gender, nor their Christian faith], but by the content of their character.’]
They can't.
ACORN, and the likes of them, IS the Rat party.
Change the name and change some of the people and they will move on as usual.
Behold! Our president. Don’t it make ya proud?
The ACORN thugs will hide out and continue under another name.
I agree. I’m sick and tired of hearing news personalities referring to what’s going on at ACORN as mere “shenanigans”.
Shenanigans ??? More like “criminal activities...
