ACORN and former ACORN executive Amy Busefink pleaded not guilty today to illegally paying canvassers to register Nevada voters in the 2008 presidential campaign.

A trial has been set for April 19 of next year. The date may be changed as an attorney reported a scheduling conflict.

Lawyers for ACORN and Busefink say they plan to challenge the constitutionality of the Nevada state law.

The prosecution's star witness is expected to be former ACORN Las Vegas field director Christopher Edwards. Charged with election fraud by Nevada's Democratic attorney general, he cut a deal with prosecutors and has pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy to commit the crime of compensation for registration of voters.

Just stopped by to see how things were at the graveyard.

I see nothing has changed. It's as dead as a doornail around here.

C'mon now, ladies...this is silly. We don't have to be included in everything.

I have been playing ice hockey for more than 10 years, both in co-ed and women's leagues. I know from personal experience that men are different when they are doing sports (more manly, if that makes any sense), and that's okay. They need that guy time occasionally, without a bunch of women horning in on their game. This is not sexist, it's nature.

For me personally, when it came to co-ed hockey, I just felt too oppressed when I played with the guys, even though I can be a beer-drinking potty mouth at the rink with the best of them. Download taylor swift mp3
