UPDATE: Senate votes 83-7 to cut housing funds to ACORN!
Just when you think it can’t get any better…CHRISTMAS COMES EARLY! James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles have released yet another set of videos Read more…
Federal funding:
In a written statement made by Bertha Lewis, ACORN’s chief organizer claims the following:
” I am appalled and angry; I cannot and I will not defend the actions of the workers depicted in the video, who have since been terminated. It is clear that the videos are doctored, edited, and in no way the result of the fabricated story being portrayed by conservative activist ‘filmmaker’ O’Keefe and his partner in crime. And, in fact, a crime it was — our lawyers believe a felony — and we will be taking legal action against Fox and their co-conspirators,” she said.
I have a couple of questions for Bertha: You fired four employees over “doctored video”? That doesn’t sound very fair, or legal. Are you then expecting to be sued for wrongful termination by the people you fired? You say that technically, no law was broken…that may be true as no papers were signed and no one shook hands on a deal however, please explain the following activities witnessed and video taped in two of your offices: Read more…
ACORN UPDATE! (Big thanks to michellemalkin.cachefly.net)
ABC is the only major network (other than FOX who has been following this since yesterday morning) reporting on this right now.
The Census Bureau has CUT TIES WITH ACORN! Check out the .pdf copy of the letter by Robert M. Groves (Director) to the president of ACORN in which he states:
“Unfortunately, we no longer have confidence that our national partnership agreement is being effectively managed through your many local offices. For the reasons stated, we therefore have decided to terminate the partnership.“
*Whew!* We can all breathe easy now! ACORN, that paragon of morality and ethics but exactly what kind of morality and ethics remains to be seen in it’s entirety, is on the case! But then, so is Rep. Boustany (R-LA) who has also called for an investigation of the organization:
Just in case you think the “Baltimore incident” was an isolated one…you really owe it to yourself to watch the following:

“DC incident” videos this way…
ACORN, you know, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. It needs to be changed to better reflect the nature of their organization. Here’s a likely list of candidates:
It’s not enough that ACORN is
Here is hidden camera proof of their corrupt policies in action:

Obama’s Team Crosses the Rhetorical Line
Many Americans took off work and sacrificed family time this past August to attend congressional town halls, where they voiced opposition to a government-run overhaul of their personal health care choices. They hand painted signs, grabbed their children and drove to their local church or school gymnasium for valuable lessons in community organizing and democracy. While they lived the Rockwellian version of American discourse, they were called names, labeled as ‘too organized’ or “un-American”, and likened to mobs, Nazis and Fascists. And now President Obama’s team has designated September 11 as the day to liken conservatives to Al Qaeda terrorists. [click thumbnail below to view actual screen capture of page:]

Today, President Obama’s campaign organization “Organizing for America” sent out a notice to its “grassroots” supporters. It asked them to wage a coordinated phone campaign for health care by calling their U.S. Senators on September 11 – also known as Patriot Day in honor of the thousands of Americans killed by Al Qaeda terrorists eight years ago. It goes on: “All 50 States are coordinating in this – as we fight back against our own Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists who are subverting the American Democratic Process, whipped to a frenzy by their Fox Propaganda Network ceaselessly re-seizing power for their treacherous leaders.” Please read that again.
So. The obvious question: Are we no longer allowed to voice our dissent in America? If we do dare to speak out, we are now “Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists”? Hell, I’m an Independent and I’m offended!!! And pissed off.
My only question is: will both the House and the Senate be required to use President Obama’s proposed health care system? If they were I’d be willing to bet they’d be making better decisions and would be much more cautious about what is in that bill and what isn’t.
…the government is unable to efficiently run it’s programs:
“I mean, if you think about it,” Obama told a town hall audience, “UPS and FedEx are doing just fine, right? No, they are. It’s the Post Office that’s always having problems.”
Irony anyone?
