Pimpin' ain't easy (ACORN remix)

If memory serves me correctly, this organization has some ties to someone who ran for president or who became president.
Nah. I must be mistaken. These guys are an innocent bi-partisan org & this was just a fluke happening.

 

And, uh, how many ACORN offices did they go to before they found two of them (because apparently they have video from DC, too) that had low enough standards to hire minimum-wage workers who were stupid enough to fall for it. From what I can tell, the "film-makers" found two offices, and in both cases, the idiots were immediately fired.

I'd like to see the footage of them being thrown out of offices, too, before I make any judgments about the organization as a whole.

 

barack hussein owes ACORN a great debt of gratitude, they worked hand in hand to help get him elected.

 

Yeah. I remember election day. Me and my lilly-white neighborhood homies weren't going to vote until the ACORN bus pulled into our neighborhood and paid us all five whole dollars and a lunch just as long we filled in the dot for the black man running for President of THE United States.

Careful, Beerking. Your hood is showing.

 

ACORN is sooo last year, Wingnuts. For fun's sake, can you at least do a "Where Are They Now" with Monica Lewinsky?

 

Well, you lot can gloss over this as much as you want. I, personally, am shocked... shocked, I tell you, to find out that there are, apparently, a few people in America who, a) don't know the law, b) aren't very bright, and c) have a very loose moral code.

I'll tell you one thing I know and I'd ask you all to consider the fact, (and it IS a fact). That if one went after people in other organisations, including those funding the republicans and, for example, offered THEM inducements to break the law, even if you offered them MONEY, they STILL wouldn't do anything wrong. NO! NO WAY would they commit an act that could be considered wrong either legally OR morally. To get them to consider such a thing you'd have to offer them literally DOZENS of dollars.

 

The Census Bureau has severed ties with ACORN, for some odd reason they think a bunch of ballot stuffers might taint the count. Go figure.

 

I'm guessing Waffle House.

 

Guess again, Monica got went on to earn a Masters degree.

 

Who said she was working there?

 

Weird how when something involving the "wingnuts" happens, the thread is beat to death by big soccer posters, but when it involves the libs, it dies out after two days

Because half the time, the "wingnuts" don't have anything real except their own hysteria. ACORN is another case in point. Seriously: it's not as powerful or as important as wingnuts believe...

... case in point, the second article. If the organization really had the kind of connections and clout that the "wingnuts" fear that it did, the Senate wouldn't have voted 83-7 to strip it of money. I mean, here we have a couple of cases of extreme stupidity at the lowest levels of the orgazination costing the organation quite a lot of coin.

What happened when we had extreme stupidity at the highest levels of, say, the banking and finance sectors, or real estate? How about Insurance.... Hmmmm. Most of the time, the Senate just gives them what they want or otherwise bails them out.

The fact that no one is bailing out ACORN should really assuage the wingnut's fears. But since their fears are founded on paranoia and projection, it won't.

 

Some questions to ponder...

1. How long has ACORN been around ?
2. Where did it start ?
3. What is its primary mission ?
4. Who funds its primary mission ?
5. What do independant people say about ACORN's success in its primary mission ?

 

1. Who cares?
2. Who cares?
3. Who cares?
4. Who cares?
5. Who cares?

It's a popular talking point that sill brings ratings so it's relevant.

 

So you don't mind that some of your tax dollars are going to this organization? One that appears to be a place where people launder their money? Cool, everyone is entitled to their opinion...

Case in point, 8 billion in stimulus funds. They probably voted this way because of the evidence against it. Did you think of that?

Let's just see how this plays out, you know, roll the dice a bit.

I didn't know that ACORN was experiencing fiscal problems. Case in point, again, they've got 8 billion of stimulus funds slated their way.

 

Like I said, if this involved the right, you'd be all over it. Sad.

 

Thats the problem. Facts be damned. Throw out the baby with the bath water. Its black and white. You are either with us or against us.


Maybe ACORN should be out of the census business and the voter registration business because they are having some issues there (no, duh). But their record on housing (since the mid-1970's, when they started, is excellent.

 

What is their record on housing? I'm looking to start a brothel, so I figured this was right up their alley.

 

Can someone tell me exactly when and how ACORN stuffed ballots or otherwise committed election fraud? Please provide links.*





















*Please don't mention that time ACORN reported its volunteers signing up fake names like members of the Dallas Cowboys, because (a) ACORN was following the law and prevented false registrations and (b) false voter registration is not election fraud

 

Supposedly, we will be blessed with a new ACORN tape tonight. It's supposed to be the worst, yet.
Since you won't see it on any of the leftwing news, you'll have to tune into Fox for the story.

 

Sounds like Congress, the DOD, Enron...

Look-- our political positions are chosen based on what we think is most important at the moment.

You fret about ACORN, I don't particularly. When the Allies decided to "take Hitler first" it was not intended to be an endorsement of Tojo.
