GAO opens ACORN investigation By: Jake Sherman December 17, 2009 01:52 PM EST A top House Republican says the Government Accountability Office has opened an investigation into ACORN’s use of taxpayer dollars. Rep. Lamar Smith (R-Texas) made the announcement Thursday in the course of demanding a separate FBI investigation into the group. “Only an independent criminal investigation conducted by the FBI can get to the bottom of the nationwide allegations against ACORN,” Smith said in a news release. The GAO investigation will be completed jointly with the executive branch’s inspector general. More than 20 senators and several House members asked...

The ACORN vote in the House is stunning news. Just 48 hours after Republican Leader John Boehner introduced the "Defund ACORN Act," the bill -- which most Republicans thought Democrats would do anything to block -- passed by a resounding 345-75 vote. It would never have made it to a vote had not the Democratic leadership decided to allow it, and the winning total included 172 Democrats. Yes, 172 House Democrats voted to totally cut off funding for an organization that has worked for years on behalf of Democrats nationwide. Couple that with the 83-7 Senate vote to cut off...

Barack Obama’s dear friends at ACORN are busy trying to lie, cheat, and steal their way to victory in November. The latest ACORN Watch entry comes to you from the battleground state of New Mexico, where election officials have notified prosecutors of an estimated 1,100 possibly fraudulent voter registration cards. The Bernalillo County clerk has notified prosecutors that some 1,100 possibly fraudulent voter registration cards have been turned in to her office. Some cards in New Mexico’s most populous county have the same name as a voter who’s already registered, but carry a different birth date or Social Security number;...

Big Government, Andrew Breitbart’s new website, is running two videos taken on July 24 by James O’Keefe, a 25-year-old independent filmmaker, of an ACORN operation in Baltimore. In the videos, O’Keefe and a colorfully dressed friend pose as a pimp and his prostitute seeking help in securing housing from which to operate a brothel. ACORN workers advise them how to file a false tax return, how to describe on federal forms the work (prostitution) as performance art, how to bring underage girls from El Salvador into the house to work, and how to avoid scrutiny by the authorities. The two-part...

ACORN has erected an elaborate web of front organizations that allow it to hide its influence and reach. I did a quick search of the internet using the New Orleans address of ACORN. Guess what I found? Almost three hundred organizations connected to ACORN. Well, I would like you to look at the following list of ACORN related organizations that share the same address as ACORN. TWO HUNDRED AND NINETY FOUR names. Got that? This is a tangled web that defies the ability of any one person or organization to figure out who is working for whom. Carnival workers use...

ACORN is the latest victim of Fox news personality Glenn Beck's racist smear campaigns. Beck aired a staged video on his program entrapping a couple of low level members of ACORN. ACORN is a non-profit organisation that works to serve low income and working Americans. ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, is the nation's largest community organization of low and moderate income families, working together for social justice and stronger communities. These are good Americans working for the benefit of those less fortunate. ACORN has over 400,000 members and more than 850 neighborhood chapters in over 100...

REFERENCE For decades, ACORN, a left-wing activist group pressured lenders to give loans to lower-income borrowers who couldn't otherwise afford homes. ACORN worked in conjuction with quasi-govt agancy Fannie Mae which was so badly managed, it had to be bailed out, thus saddling US taxpayers with gigantic debts. LEFTIST POLITICS AND TOXIC MORTGAGES Recipients of ACORN'S mortgage ministrations become political recruits, serving as foot soldiers for ACORN's radical agenda. Now these toxic mortgages are poisoning the nation's economic viability. ACORN HAS THE ANSWER: Pressure banks not to foreclose on these deadbeats. As the bailout was being discussed, ACORN President...

Calling All FReepers: I don't know exactly what we need to do and where, but I can't help but believe we have to counter these ACORN nuts in every way possible. I'm in Georgia so we don't have as much to worry about locally, but the battleground states sure do. I do like the idea of Squirrel Brigade as the name...

CROWN POINT | Lake County Republican Chairman John Curley wants a federal investigation into hundreds of voter registrations bearing fictitious signatures or the names of dead and underage people. "Fraudulent applications are the workings of ACORN groups operating from Milwaukee and Chicago who are getting out the vote for Obama. I'm Republican, but I want everyone who should vote to vote. But I want a clean election," Curley said at a Wednesday news conference. Lake County elections officials acknowledged they have found problems and had to reject a large portion of the 5,000 registration forms turned in recently by the...
