Conyers suggests probe of ACORN - Calls fraud charges 'serious'

Washington Times ^ | March 20, 2009 | S.A. Miller

[SoCalPol]

The Democrats are neck deep in crapOla and their disaster of a leader Obama has led them into the swamp.

Conyers and few more who will step out of the box and
try the “I am shocked” routine to CYA.

To little to late. The Republicans can say, I told you so.

[Bigun]

What of this, JR? Is this more grandstanding? ACORN “investigation” just a deflection for some other tyrannical motion by Conyers?

Nope!

It is a serious attempt to sweep all the ACORN malfeasance under the rug before the republicans retake the house in 2010.

[ConservativeMind]

I think, by the way it is written, that it is to be an investigation of the ACCUSATIONS against ACORN, not of ACORN.

[SunkenCiv]

...and I’m *sure* Conyers is *really serious* about getting to the bottom of it.

That sounds a lot more like the Democrats that I know and love (NOT!).

[Doctor Raoul]

What’s in this for Conyers?

[ErnBatavia]

Window Dressing “hearings” coming up - then we file it all under “old news”.

[gimme1ibertee]

The investigation will go like this:

Conyers: ACORN,did you guys do something wrong?
ACORN: Of course not...don't be silly.
Conyers: Very good. This concludes the investigation.

I wonder if discovered that Acorn actually registered some republican or maybe conservative voters.

This is almost funny! In Trinidad a cobo is a black vulture. Cobo is also used as a slang term for blacks. The saying goes like this, “Play dead to catch cobo live.”

[JDoutrider]

At the end of this circus... Race trumps all.

[noah]

That’s better than investigating the “Bush” Administration!!

[OldMissileer]

I think we all know that any “probe” will consist of a series of fake hearings filled with softball questions, followed by “nothing to see here, move along.”

BINGO! This is exactly what will happen!

[Springman]

Ping.

[rintense]

Conyers??? Seriously????

[Carley]

LOLOL. Imagine Conyers investigating ACORN.

Laugh a minute. The committee will commend them for all their good works. Declare the entire organization pure as the driven snow, er coal.

[ozzymandus]

Conyers is calling for an official cover up. Their conclusion is already written. “We investigated thoroughly, and found no evidence of wrong doing”.

[nuconvert]

My guess would be, all the dems would throw softballs at ACORN people and then clear them of any wrong-doing. End of story.

[rockinqsranch]

“Dog & pony show from the master.”

That’s how I see it also.

The Democrats would create the illusion of investigation. By the time the Dems are finished “investigating” ACORN, one would wonder how we ever survived to the 21st Century without them.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Conyers will say anything. Any. Thing.

That doesn't mean he believes it, and it doesn't mean he'll do anything.

Actually, it means just the opposite.
