Left-Wing ACORN To Disband
IBD's Capital Hill ^ | 3/22/2010 | Ed Carson

This doesn’t balance out ObamaCare for conservatives, but it eases the pain a little: The once mighty community activist group ACORN announced Monday it is folding amid falling revenues — six months after video footage emerged showing some of its workers giving tax tips to conservative activists posing as a pimp and prostitute.

I don’t believe it. I bet they were moved over to their sister group SEIU.

Last week we had news Obama signed an executive order to restore funding or was it the court? - where will the money go?

Direct quote from the SEIU bylaws.

We must organize unorganized Healthcare workers, extending to them the gains of unionism while securing control over the Healthcare industry.

Isn't the IRS hiring for 16,000 more positions?

I'm sure all of this news is just coincidental.

When the Brown shirts were banned they just formed cells and
took on different names. One group called itself “The
Acorns”. Could history be repeating itself?

Yup. I have been saying all along that SEIU and ACORN thugs will run healthcare.

All the doctors need to go private. Also what about Catholic hospitals? Can they deny abortions and can doctors take private patients there?

It served a purpose.

All organizations look for the cream of whatever their ranks hold.

Acorn was a farm team.

I’ll bet the KKK disbanded after all the bad press the got. You know felt really bad about all the nasty stuff they had done.

Yeah Right!!!

Hold the election then call the Bosses in Philly and Chicago and tell them how many votes you need and VOILA, there the votes have magically appeared.

Annoy the libs, tell them dead folks can’t vote.

"Left-Wing ACORN To Disband"

They might as well. ACORN has been working 24/7 for at least the last two POTUS elections and midterms frauding almost every single voting district in the country to get marxist anti-US candidates elected whose goal was to "fundamentally change the United States of America" and with the passage of "ObamassiahCare", their main job of "slave reversal social justice" is completed.

Time for a break, name change and a "re-group".

Michelle Bachmann said that Obama ordered the funding for ACORN to be reinstated. This happened SATURDAY.
