ACORN Loves High Taxes But Doesn’t Bother Paying Them
Capital Research Center ^ | October 25, 2008 | Matthew Vadum

Capital Research Center has discovered that ACORN, which relentlessly argues for higher taxes, can’t be bothered to actually pay its own taxes. In the November Foundation Watch we report:

Ironically, ACORN and its affiliates, all reliable cheerleaders for higher taxes, are longtime tax deadbeats. A search of public records found more than 200 tax liens adding up to more than $3.7 million are associated with groups that share ACORN’s address on Elysian Fields Avenue in New Orleans. The most recent lien, in the amount of $23,383, was filed by the IRS against an ACORN affiliate, American Workers Associates Inc., on September 9, 2008.

It would be great if CRC could do a report on all the liberal-lefty groups that have defaulted on their taxes. I can certainly think of a few doozies.

Bush would have to be an absolute FOOL to do this.
