Has anyone from Acorn been arrested yet? Is voter fraud just okayh with law enforcement? If so, does that mean we can all vote as often as we want, if we find the loop holes, in the next election, because no one is arrested. I think you would get more time in jail or a bigger fine if you jaywalked, or dropped trash on main street.

ACORN can do without the Catholic church’s money since they are getting a nice chunk from the bailout funds.

Good news!

OT: I just heard on Fox at about 10 a.m. that George Soros is being investigated in the hedge fund role of the financial meltdown!

ACORN was founded and is run by a domestic terrorist! Why was the Church funding them to start with?

The people at the Roman Catholic church seem to be a little slow on the uptake: abusive priests, not denying the Sacrament to those who support abortion; telling their parishioners that it is inconsistent for them to be Catholic and support those who promote abortion; ......

A day late. Why investigate where the money is spent AFTER it supports illegal activities? Who is watching the Purse strings here? Would a closer look find the church is supporting abortion, homosexual marriage, or diminishing the church in the world?

The truth be know, I'll bet the money is going to other satanic, anti God, anti US, orginizations.

Well, this is good news!

Join the Bishops in fighting FOCA! (See highlights in list.)

Pray for LIFE!

Did’t take you Catholic bashers long to hop onto this thread, did it!

Too little-—too late.

The Catholics knew about ACORN’s problems for years. It was only because ACORN was finally put in the public spotlight that they stopped funding.

What’s the rush?

Voter fraud is okay if it’s conducted by democrats.

One would have thought ACORN's links to abortionists would have precluded this to begin with.

Though better late than never....

I am sure if funding ever becomes a problem the steps will be as follows.

Start new NPO.
Get more funding.
Go on with business as usual.
Rinse, lather, repeat.

We need to also watch the group of people behind these types of organizations.

Hmmm, I wonder how many other private groups donate to ACORN?

Of course, it’s not “the Catholic Church,” but the American bishops, who have been funding ACORN.

The real problem is the Campaign for Human Development. It is the HARD HARD LEFT within the liberal fascist bureaucracy the bishops created in Washington to support Woodrow Wilson’s war and military draft (in defiance of Pope Benedict XV) in 1917, the National Catholic War Conference—now known as the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.

There have been previous scandals with CCHD’s exclusive support of hard left organizations, pro-abortion politicians, etc. CCHD exists, in large part, to nullify anything “pro-life” the bishops might be accomplishing.

The Dirctor of the Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) at the USCCB (a lay person) was once a Democrat activist in the Minnesota Democrat Farm Labor party and a Hubert Humphrey protege. He has long supported ACORN through his control of the CCHD and disbursement of its grants. These grants were over a $ 1 million this year and $7 million over the last 10 years.

He knew all about ACORN’s involvement in helping liberal Democrat causes and probably kept most of that from the naive bishops, who thought all the money was going to help the poor.

He was in violation of the law, disrespectful of Catholic Church procedures for non-involvement in political campaigns, and dishonest in the misappropriation of Catholics’ contributions intended for the poor but channeled into his personal political agenda.
