Taxpayers funding of Democrat political campaigns.

Whats wrong with that?

All taxpayers agree with the fundamental Socialist policies of the Liberals right?

I mean the mainstream according to the media is onboard with Obama’s change and his new socialist dream for America.

Hey if you question him or his policies you are obviously a racist or some hate filled person that should be prosecuted and they have Obama truth squads that will silence you.

So lets face it Conservatism is dead.

Very simple: behind closed doors, ACORN-friendly language was slipped into the Democratic economic rescue proposal by Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd (D-CT) and House Financial Services Committee Chairman Barney Frank (D-MA).

Criminals...... both!

Just sent this via e-mail to my Senators and Representative:

Dear ________

Not one dime of this bailout should go to organizations like ACORN and La Raza.

The funding of nongovernmental organizations which are nakedly partisan is not only wrongheaded and immoral, but unconstitutional.

As long as this provision remains in the bailout bill, I, and thousands of others like me will steadfastly oppose any efforts to get it passed.

Before any bailout plan is approved, there should be hearings which investigate the root causes of this catastrophe.

There are members of both houses of Congress who have opposed strengthening oversight of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae every time legislation to strengthen oversight and increase accountability has been proposed over the years, and they must be held accountable for their positions.

Their actions need to be brought to the light of day, and NAMES NEED TO BE NAMED.

Wrong-headed actions by Congress led to this mess; and it is idiotic to assume that additional wrong-headed actions by Congress will fix it.

Thank you,

“I want Boehner to find out who wrote that language and who thought they would get away with this scheme.”

I could not agree more, every one I have called refuses to name names but my money is on Barney.

Thanks, Syncro. I'd missed that. Safe seats there, unfortunately. They'll even become folk heroes to their constituents.

Thank God for the House Republicans. True patriots! If this ACORN crap stays in the bill, there’s going to be hell to pay.

I’ve called both senators here in FL and both boxes are full

I’ll be trying and trying as no way should they get anything and I am calling all the media as to why they are not reporting this on a bigger scale

obama worked for this corrupt group

there’s a connection and I want to know who put this in the bill.

I also want Dodds, Franks to be investigated as obama should be as I bet he’s got something to do with this
