Vadum vs Thom Hartmann on Registering the Poor to Vote (Cloward-Piven Strategy)

Darnell Nash, a voter in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, has been indicted by a grand jury for, among other things, illegal voting.
Nash was registered to vote by ACORN.
Ryan Miday, spokesman for Cuyahoga County, Ohio Prosecutor Bill Mason, a Democrat, just spoke with me.
Miday said an “investigation is continuing into activities by ACORN. Darnell Nash is the first we’ve charged in this ongoing investigation.”
“ACORN workers approached him to fill out voter registration cards and he did so on nine different occasions using different names and addresses, then he actually registered and voted on Sept. 30 and voted with a different address and the address was an address here in the Cleveland area in a suburb called Shaker Heights.”
Miday said that the Shaker Heights address is important because the person who actually lives there alerted the authorities after multiple registration acknowledgement documents came in the mail. Nash’s vote was then flagged and Nash came to the attention of the board of elections. It held an administrative board hearing and summoned Nash to appear but he failed to show up for the hearing.
“After the election ACORN had to turn over all its voter registration cards and those amounted to about 70,000,” Miday said. “The sheriff’s office in Cuyahoga County has been going through mounds of paperwork.”
“The activities by ACORN are being looked at. Through the investigation a number of employees of ACORN have been interviewed,” said Miday.
The investigation is ongoing, he repeated.
Updated 9 p.m.: The New York Post previously reported on Darnell Nash’s exploits. (I knew that name sounded familiar but I couldn’t quite place it.) He or she is a unique individual. Here’s a New York Post video about Nash (hat tip: Yid With Lid):

On the surface, any investigation into ACORN would seem hopeful. But I'll bet, like other fraud/corruption so blatanly going on in our country right now, this "disappears" and nothing comes of it.
Daisy| 6.4.09 @ 8:24PM
Keep it up, Matt!! I've read that a lot of people are paying attention to all of this Democrat/ACORN corruption. Glenn Beck is also in hot pursuit.
If we keep up the pressure, maybe we can expose the democrats' lies and deceit for all of the country to see.
2010 is just around the corner. Fight back!

Amazing! The Democrats screamed bloody murder concerning the supposedly DISENFRANCHISEMENT of voters in Florida in 2000 [which ended up being decided by the Supreme Court], but surprisingly are all silent now [guess the O-Cat has their tongue!]. The fraudently thing is that we/taxpayers are funding Acorn to go out and commit corruption-------where will it end????????????

If Nash or a few members of ACORN are guilty, they should be convicted, period. But let's be honest about how small the consequence would be compared to the approximately 57,000 people who had their names erroneously taken off the voter rolls by Choicepoint/DBT and Katherine Harris, handing the victory to Bush.
Let's be honest - progressives will bend to the truth, but it's conservatives who won't, who will deny right up until the end. Look at how few conservatives are willing to admit the need for financial regulation, when even Alan Greenspan admits the pure greed of the banks and Wall Street was more than he could imagine.
We all need to not excuse crimes simply because the offender is "one of our own."
