I believe the legal expertise at ACORN....probably comprises the same level as a young lawyer named Obama probably provided them. These guys might want to hire up a real lawyer and prepare for a different strategy.

I believe the sole purpose of this lawsuit is to intimidate Breitbart et al from releasing more videos.

It will probably go nowhere — very fast.

If a citizen suspects a dirty cop, catches him in the act on video, and makes it public, would the citizen be sued for while acting as a whistle-blower?

What's the point of whistle-blower protection laws if the whistle-blower is somehow in violation of the law?

Was ACORN acting as an agent of the government as it takes our money to run offices (are they public?) that offer advice about our government - in this case - about taxes, immigration, 'small business assistance', and housing? How else would the 5 ACORN offices have been exposed?

Yet, the government can use traffic-stop cameras, speeding cameras, red-light cameras, surveillance cameras, etc., to prosecute us, but if an agent of the government (ACORN) is acting contrary to the best interests of all of us, the whistle-blower is sued.

WE NO LONGER LIVE IN AMERICA!

"And if that discovery produces evidence of a crime? You can be sure that evidence would be fed ex'ed to the Justice Department!"

The main problem I see here, is that if it's up to the (so called) Justice Department to take action against evidence of a crime(s)...do we honestly believe they will?

Think the NBP's and voter intimidation for starters.

Hoping I'm wrong.

CCI (Citizens Consulting Inc.) has one client, or (in other words) a series of clients...ACORN and all its affiliates. Whenever ACORN receives any money, whether from the federal governmnent or other resources, it first goes to CCI. Then, CCI filters that money to anyone of ACORN’s affiliates.

If the government were to give money to say Health Care for America Now to provide health care services in poor neighborhoods, that money will first wind up at CCI. Where that money ends up is anyone’s guess. Why? That’s because CCI is a private company and so getting a look at its books is no easy task. In fact, I doubt more than a handful of politicians even know the relationship between ACORN and CCI.

In fact, ACORN is such a sophisticated organization that often politicians will get on the floor of the legislature to rail against ACORN and then turn around and meet with one of their affiliates and authorize funding. That’s because more times than not a politician has no idea that they are dealing with an ACORN affiliate.

The structure of ACORN is also rather sophisticated. ACORN has a board of directors but these folks have largely ceremonial titles. Most of the board are zealots of the cause. They rose through the ranks of ACORN often starting as foot soldiers fighting for causes near and dear to them. Since ACORN is often associated with causes for poor, most of the board are themselves poor. As such, they are often rather unsophisticated and thus will be overwhelmed by the sophisticated nature of the organization itself. In fact, the real power at ACORN lies in it executive committee. The executive committee is currently made up of Maude Hurd, Alton Bennett, Maxine Nelson, Carol Hemmingway, Alicia Russell, Pedra Reavis, and Marie Pierre.

There is no question that ACORN is ideological, however in reality ACORN is really driven by something much different than ideology. That drive is greed. ACORN’s real goals aren’t necessarily any sort of change but rather to create a plethora of constant campaigns. The work on such campaigns as living wage, universal health care, and providing housing for the poor. As such, whatever accomplishments like the Community Reinvestment Act had in influencing society, what they really did was provide ACORN with a nearly never ending platform.
