...said ACORN was getting by on about $4 million annually rather than its one-time $25 million budget and had reduced its staff to four...

Just getting by on $1,000,000,000 per employee!?

And what exactly do they have to show for it?

You wrote $1 billion ($1,000,000,000) per employee. I think you meant $1 million ($1,000,000), right?

Community organizing doesn't come cheap! Sometimes it takes trillions. Just ask Obama.

I also wonder if the hundreds of other outfits under the umbrella of ACORN are continuing to get government money.

Hey, it takes time and energy to develop phony charities and cover companies to squirrel those funds away into private accounts, especially now that they see the clock ticking down on the gravy train pulling out of the station (whoa, metaphor overload, step away from the coffee!).
