ACORN got something like 6 Billion dollars (anyone remember the exact amount?) in the Porkulus Bill.

All that money needs to be taken from them NOW!!!
It was $8,500,000,000 directly to ACORN through some programs, with numerous additional opportunities for them.

Some were for things like information and eduction programs about the DTV switchover. So that money may already be in the hands of ACORN.

Please, everyone, write your Congress Critters and Senators to get as much of the remaining funds for ACORN returned to the treasury. It would be really nice if this money went to deficit reduction and isn’t spent on something else.

And we need to watch carefully, the ACORN crooks might need some “seed money” for starting their next criminal enterprise. So keep an eye on the federal spending for “community organizing” purposes. Also watch out for houses with a bunch of foreign, non-English speaking young girls. From the videos, it seems like ACORN knows a lot about that business and could raise cash that way if they needed to.

I agree Beck is the best...rules for radicals...however, they have another tactic...ACORN will continue to be a part of it only in different clothing...you know wolves in sheep clothing...

LOL! Good news today! I do not think they will be allowed back in with all of the criminal cases pending in multiple states. Now if we see the Congress all of a sudden pull back a little from their leftwing bank they made we will know that they know ACORN won’t be there to help them cheat this time!

Is the 2010 Census already underway?

The 2010 Census will occur on April 10. 2010. The Census Bureau makes surveys of Americans all of the time, mostly for obtaining economic information.

The MSM, as Beck is pointing out, by not covering this HUGE story, is now appearing “complicit” with the corruption in Washington. May they ALL go down with the ship!!!!

What is your problem anyway?

My problem is everybody on this thread has been giving Beck sole credit for breaking a story he didn't even break. The overall impression given by Beck's viewers on this thread is that he did, which leads people who have not watched his show (such as I) to deduce that he took complete credit for it!

If that's not the case, & Beck is indeed sufficiently crediting the actual reporting elsewhere, then his fans aren't doing him any favors by slighting the reporting elsewhere & making him look like a credit-hogger. They are unfairly (& unwittingly, it would seem) making him look like a jerk.

Beck highlighted the story, that's obvious & he should be credited for that, but he wasn't the only one out there doing so.

Of course, many of ACORN’s 200 or so “affiliated entities” will still be “working” the census.

Never should have gone to ACORN in the first place.

It's law that any taxpayer paid jobs be locally advertised...for everyday citizens to be hired. This prevents such fraud.

We need to remind Congress NOT to hire ANY other outfits but to do it the right way ;

“And may the frumious bandersnatches of Acorn be soon outgrabed by the mamroths of Fox!”

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
Beck left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"THE TIDE IS BEGINNING TO TURN!

You are way to premature! ACORN is a snake-hydra mutant and will take a lot of killing before the tide even begins to turn.

I’ll add the above pic of “the sweet transvestite” from Rocky Horror Picture Show to the envelope. Looks just like Rahmbo.

“Are you the guy who took my ballet shoes?” That is classic.

I hope Dead Fish appreciates it!
