ACORN to Get Funded in the DEAL
Senator Lindsey Graham

Posted on 09/25/2008 7:21:27 PM PDT by KCengineer

Senator Graham said on Greta that ACORN was going to get funds in the original deal.

It will be a cold day in hell if those leftist crooks get my tax dollars.

We can be sure that John McCain knows a-l-l about ACORN.

Doesn’t matter. The government did the people a lot of good. Results aren’t important. Neither is Constitutional authorization.

The food line is over there. Half rations in light of the economic problem we...er... the free market created.

“ACORN is a group of “community organizers”,”

It’s a group of Democratic voters.

The Clintons are still ticked that Howard Dean and Obama stole the party leadership away from them.

They know that if Obama loses (which they dearly hope happens), Dean is done as well and the Clintons reassert themselves as party leaders. There’s no one else in line to take the helm.

“helping over 50,000 families to achieve homeownership.” How many have had their mortgages foreclosed?

Probably 10,000 or so. Most counseling programs have little or no effect.

I think ACORN Housing is not affiliated with ACORN the voter fraud org. But I don't know.

The House Republicans said no way.

They deserve our funding and support to try to prevent the Democrat party from controlling all branches of government. That is the real and visible threat. If it happens there will be a new deal that is international socialism.

So he said they WERE GOING TO get funding in the ORIGINAL DEAL.

Are they going to get funding in the deal now on the table?

If they were going to and are not now, that’s a different issue.

I feel the same way! A year ago I swore an oath to never vote for McCain, under any circumstance. Now I am starting to like him, as you said, almost as much as Palin.

This is the craziest, most messed up ---- I've ever seen in my life. The world seems completely upside down right now, like I'm having one of those really bad dreams you get if you eat spicy pepperoni pizza too close to bed time...

I feel like at any moment Rod Serling is going to step out from behind a tree, cigarette in hand, and say, "Imagine, if you will, a vessel called the economy, a ship run by jack asses, where the most inept and corrupt are playing with themselves below decks, and the captain is missing, no one is at the wheel, and our intrepid hero Boagenes is about to walk the plank in a little place we call, the Twilight Zone..." (cue theme music...)

“No kidding!!! You wonder what the hell he's waiting for.”

I am hoping that tomorrow McCain will make a statement that there is NO DEAL because the DEMS in the Senate want to add earmarks to ACORN to the tune of $_________ and to ??? to the tune of $_________ and on and on!

Then he could say: "Although I am a Presidential candidate I am a Senator who is paid to do a job and I intend to do my job and stay in Washington until this important economy legislation is done right for all American taxpayers. And since Senator Obama refused to do 10 town hall debates with me, I'm sure he can deal with simply postponing this evening's debate for a week or so." After listening to the stuff the DEMS spew I had to make a batch of my cayenne peanut brittle to enjoy. It always makes me feel better! :)

For those that are not familiar with ACORN, click the pic and watch the vid. It is 8.6 Megabytes as it is the entire investigative report from the 2004 Presidential election in Denver, (the location of the DNC Nomination Convention). At 2 minutes and 35 seconds into this video, you can see the ACORN sign that says, “Vote for Change”… Obama’s campaign slogan.

Not affiliated in the same way Sinn Fein and the Irish Republican Army were not "affiliated."

Here is a critically important study in neo-Marxism 101.

Just do this Web search: "ACORN AND Alinsky AND Obama"

...and read three articles.

I suggest using ixquick.com
