Sleazy, Criminal, Radical ACORN Finally Gets the Tabloid Treatment It Deserves

I really like the way the ACORN story is told in today's New York Post.

ACORN is sleazy, criminal, and dangerous and the tabloid style of storytelling is ideal for explaining what the group is all about.

I spent quite a bit of time with reporter Ginger Adams Otis on the phone this past week and she turned out an excellent summary of what ACORN is all about.

Here it is in today's New York Post.

They missed a heck of a lot though... barely scratched the surface...

For instance, ACORN lost their Amircorps grant in the 90s because they used it to recruite people into ACORN...

I just read an AP article that quoted Osama as saying, "I had no idea ACORN was getting federal funding." LIAR!!!!!

Osama?

I called this thing a rotting corpse. I take it all back...that's giving respectable cadavers a bad name.
Congrats Matt Vadum for being all over this thing like white on rice (is that racist?). His investigations have been extensive and accurately researched. It's a who's who of radical left subversion under the guise minority advancement and welfare-state blanket organisation...It's breathtaking. Even Glenn Beck has just scratched the surface....I was able to locate 290 + ACORN associated organisations with little effort(credit: No Quarter). I'm sure that as and when each of these lashups is investigated it will lead even more interesting revelations.
The great task as I see it is to thread each and every one of these through their political contacts, toadies, bought and paid for hacks and the people who are supposed to have taken an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. We need to seek them out...expose them, drive them from office where ever and when ever we find them. This is going to be a gutter street fight and we'd best resolve ourselves to it quickly!

I was thinking of looking up some of them newspaper websites, but am glad I came here instead. Although glad is not quite the right word… let me just say I needed this after the incessant chatter in the media, and am grateful to you for articulating something many of us are feeling - even from distant shores. Please come visit my site multiple sclerosis symptoms when you got time

You may have not intended to do so, but I think you have managed to express the state of mind that a lot of people are in. The sense of wanting to help, but not knowing how or where, is something a lot of us are going through. Please come visit my site atrial fibrillation treatment when you got time.

Wake up call....check out Maobama's body language on the fringe media shows on Sunday...Particularly when asked about ACORN. His entire deportment screams lie on top of lie.....It was sad but ironically funny to see Georgie boy Stephanopolous nail his El Presidente to the barn wall...too bad he didn't have the Juevos to follow up on it. I thought for a minute there that Osama's face would drop off.

The wonderful thing about gold is that it is virtually indestructible. It also does not cause any known allergies or rashes so it is great to give as a gift that won’t cause the wearer to break out in a red and itchy mess. Cheaper, non precious, metals sometimes have high nickel content and a huge percentage of people have a natural allergy to this metal. If anyone has ever ended up with an itchy rash, clear fluid oozing from a piercing or a crusty feel to the pierced hole, then it is odds on that the metal contains nickel.
