1. Why did the ACORNistas consider that to be their “Proudest Moment”?
2. What is Ricardo planning on doing about those who fraudulently planted lots of those ACORNs and grew them, ala their sub-prime Liar-Loan a$$paper ponzi scheme, into the systemic corruption our financial infrastructure... what is Ricardo planning on doing about bringing them to Justice?
Where’s LEO, Ricardo?
You Purple Party Parrots don't have a clue about how to answer that, do ya.
I can't make out what you are trying to write.
Back in 2005, ACORN worked with legislatures to allow people with a certain type of mortgage to a conventional mortgage.
They did not receive any money, just the opportunity.

“The group’s proudest moment came last week when Gov. Rick Perry signed a bill that makes important changes in the use of contracts-for-deed, a form of home lending that withholds a title from buyers until they have fully paid their loan.
“Passage of the law, which will make it possible for buyers to convert their loans to traditional mortgages, was this year’s top Texas legislative goal for ACORN, which represents 175,000 low- and moderate-income families in 51 U.S. cities.”
LomanBill, From your homepage:
Hos 12:7 The merchant uses dishonest scales;he loves to defraud.
The bill that the Governor was signing in that picture was a move to correct law that could be used to defraud.
In Texas, we did not allow the refinance and home equity sub-prime-type loans, at all. We also have restrictions on original loans, requiring mortgage insurance if people want to borrow more than 80%. That law protected our citizens, our banks, and the housing market from the worst of the results of the subprime crash.
Governor Perry is very vocal about the type of Federal regulations and laws that resulted in the fraudulent “paper ponzi.” He would change regulations under the Executive Branch, cut most of the bureaucracy as he is able and replace the necessary bureaucrats with conservatives who believe in Constitutional, Federal and not central government.
From Fed Up!:
“The truth is, I don’t care what party the statist is in. The fact of the matter is, it is the statist, and those who support or enable him, who is the problem. For too long he has undermined this country by empowering the national government at the expense of liberty. An America defined by the statist in Washington is an America doomed to fail.” p.15 loc 338
“Our cause is simple: to restore the balance of power intended by our Founders but forsaken by secular progressives determined to say what government will do for the people rather than allowing people to do what they can do for themselves. Our goal is to take power away from Washington and instead empower states, communities, and individuals, because America’s future greatness is inextricably intertwined with states pushing back.” Kindle PC Edition, location 355
