Breaking News on Fox, the Census Bureau has severed all ties to ACORN. Will not be working with ACORN for the census in 2010.

I have analyzed the 360+ organizations cited in the ACORN report against the Census organizations. There is ONE definite match with Census organizations and ONE possible match. Here they are:

Volunteers of America POSSIBLE MATCH This is the Census organization
“Volunteers FOR America” is the ACORN organization. Even if they don’t match, they could imitate VOA.

Service Employees International Union MATCH
We all know this one.

I’ll send the spreadsheet and the sources and the Congressional report to Glen Beck.

So what is ACORN being renamed to?

I believe a potential new name still up for "grabs" (!) was suggested by the Acorn employee herself: "Hop-Ins". I'm sure you all can find some suitable variations.

Let’s get our grammar right:

ACORN: All your nuts ARE belong to us!

Here is my email to Glenn:

Hi Glen,

Firstly, thanks for the great investigative reporting you’ve been doing on Fox News!

Secondly, here is some more research done by my fellow “Freepers” on Free Republic (freerepublic.com). They have found various aliases and names used by ACORN and linked to the US Census site, which documents the various organizations affiliated with the US Census.

Someone said, “We ought to cross reference these!” and so I did. I entered all the ACORN aliases into a spreadsheet and compared them to all the Census organizations. I color coded them to keep them straight.

I have one possible match and one definite match.

Volunteers of America POSSIBLE MATCH This is the Census organization
“Volunteers FOR America” is the ACORN organization. Even if they don’t match, they could imitate VOA.

Service Employees International Union MATCH
We all know this one.

I’m still nervous. Our sources were the Congressional report (attached) and a search in New Orleans records. I wonder how many other registrations they have that we do not know?

Please keep me anonymous. My Freeper handle is “Forgiven Sinner”

Thank you for all you do.

Your fellow American,

Forgiven Sinner

So, are you asking if Obama has thrown ACORN under the bus? That could be a very good thing, but I have a feeling a lot of these connections are going “Underground” and not away. It still shows that they are feeling the need to bend under the pressure somewhat at least... We just need to keep pressing, IMHO. They are like cockroaches, and we are the light...

Glenn Beck has been rightfully saying all week that the focus should not be on disposable people, rather the people at the top - the REAL pimps at ACORN.

ACORN has been doing this crap for decades, under different names and organizational structures. But the one consistency has been the people at the top, all good buddies of Obama, helping him to be elected by collecting money - and votes for Obama.

And these same ACORN criminals have been in charge of our Constitutionally-mandated Census.

ALL CENSUS DATA ACQUIRE TO THIS POINT IS TAINTED AND MUST THEREFORE BE DESTROYED

Let me see, Rahm Emmanuel is in charge of the Censdus being run out of the white house. And I am supposed to believe this BS? I have a bridge for sale in Brooklyn, anybody who believes this statement can call me for instructions on where to wire the money...

Well when they come to your door, demand some ID, quiz them relentlessly on what they want, ask for a birth certificate, express surprise when they don’t have one, so ask for a passport, take pictures and video of them and their vehicle, including license plate, and call local law enforcement, really give it to them

ACTUALLY comitted. I wish she were wrong but I don't think she was.

I don't know that she saw the complete tape, but Judge Napolitano rattled off about 8 charges.

It may look like ACORN's getting their filty wings clipped............. but we have to be very alert. ACORN will reurface under another disguise. These people have Ohaha in their hip pocket. He is not going to back down easily.

REFERENCE ACORN drops tarnished name and moves to silence critics
By: Kevin Mooney Commentary Staff Writer 06/21/09

Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now (ACORN) leaders are using the threat of a law suit to silence and intimidate critics, according to current and former members of the liberal activist group.

Wade Rathke, who founded the organization, announced on his blog that ACORN International has officially changed its name to ********* “Community Organizations International.”****

ACORN is in the process of dismantling Citizen’s Consulting Inc. (CCI), a New-Orleans based non-profit, which has been used to maintain centralized financial control, ACORN 8 activists claim.

=============================================

NOTE WELL 361 entities compose the ACORN COUNCIL (Acorn Offices and affiliated groups).

Actually, I was kind of wondering who “Robert M. Groves” is. I guess he is at the Census Bureau. I wonder if he ran this up the chain before sending out the letter.

Is Rahm-bo on any of the propaganda outlets tomorrow morning? Maybe we’ll hear from him on this. I doubt it, though. I think this will get swept under the bus with the rest of the victims.

Via the You-tube version of the ACORN video, the music is the song “Ridiculous” from a privately produced CD by a New Jersey musician, Anthony Dini.

Not bad — a terrific pair of investigative reporters, and a now-discovered new musical talent. That’s a good day’s work!
