They will just re-emerge into another organization.

I’m sure that pig Soros will fund them.

I really just don’t believe this.
All they did was change into differently-named organizations. It might be true what’s left of ACORN may be low on funds, but the groups that have broken off from ACORN I am sure are still getting money under their new names.
Didn’t ACORN get like 5 billion+ from the stimulus slush fund?

I read on biggovernment/bigjournalism that Obama has started funding them again.
To: tobyhill
I’m suspicious... I think they plan to declare bankruptcy, then startup again under a new name, with all that stimulous money earmarked for community organizing.
To: Nachum; Army Air Corps; stephenjohnbanker
This report is in contradiction to an earlier report regarding a reinstatement of ACORN funding from the Obama.

To: tobyhill
so what?
Bankruptcy just allows the rats to scatter and reorganize under a different not-for-profit umbrella.
It's all bullsh#t. Unless you have criminal prosecution and cut off ALL funding for these stupid groups then it's just a shell game.
We need to go to ZERO except for military and rebudget up from that point. Get rid of Education, National Endowment for the Arts, and about 1000 other little fiefdoms that have nothing to do but graft. Even the Army Corps of Engineers and the EPA need to be zeroed out. Everybody fired and then reapply for jobs.

This is good, but not good enough. I want to see all Acorn MEMBERS bankrupt.
I’ve had it with the leeches, moochers, thieves, and Communists in this country. If I had my way, none of them would be able to feed themselves and the next winter would turn them to ice cubes.
“Carry your own water or die” is my new motto. Compassion is no longer in my vocabulary.

I didn't know prostitution rings and racketeers could file for bankruptcy, JJ.

There must be some massive embezzling going on.
