ACORN Rallies Its Troops
The atlantic ^ | 10.09.08 | Marc Ambinder

Posted on 10/09/2008 5:07:53 PM PDT by Perdogg

Republicans v ACORN has become a perennial early October antagonism, and tensions this year are particularly acute, with Republicans from the McCain campaign all the way down to House Republicans accusing the left-leaning community organizing group of a national conspiracy to flood secretaries of state with fraudulent voter registrations.

They might as well include the Clintons because that is who has turned over a lot of information including tying Obama to hiring this group for his campaign to the tune of $800,000 in the primary.

Brack attacks Blackwell on his website. One problem. The voter fraud ACORN is involved in now spans 12 states. Barack: “It’s a right wing conspiracy”

Fox News reported the ACORN investigation covered 21 states.

If he loses, we are warned there will be riots. I believe that is terrorism. We have been threatened by terrorism to vote for Barack Obama

I would like to see President Bush issue an executive order freezing all assets of ACORN, impounding all the applications they have submitted, and barring them from further participation in this election. The appearance so far is that there is massive fraud and it has the potential to throw the election. No one has the right to interfere with a Federal election, and fraud is not a right.

I heard that earlier today on Fox, I think it was during Cavuto, sorry can't remember which of his guests said it, but they said the same thing.

I read this today on the obamacrimes.com site and wondering if anyone knows anything about it---VERY interesting if true and this supposedly came from the site http://hillbuzz.wordpress.com

Tonight we talked to someone who works in the federal courts here in Chicago.

The buzz in those corridors is that federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has been leading a team of FBI investigators in 10 states working on a RICO case.

Today, it was announced that ACORN is being investigated in 10 states.

That’s one Hell of a coincidence.

We asked why Fitzgerald would be involved in this, because he’s the prosecutor on the Tony Rezko case and we aren’t aware of ACORN being investigated in Illinois.

We were told that ACORN was investigated in Illinois years ago, and it was a Fitzgerald case then. This means ACORN’s activities today, involving a conspiracy to commit multi-state voter fraud on SoetorObama’s behalf, are an extension of that previous ACORN case.

Our source in federal courts said, “Any crime that involves more than two people and is carried out across state lines qualifies as a corrupt organization. The fact that those “Goodwill” donations were made in Texas and received at Obama headquarters in Chicago or Washington means it qualifies for RICO.”

The “Goodwill donations” referred to above are the $228 million in undocumented, unverified campaign contributions the SoetorObama camp has received — which the McCain campaigned filed a complaint to the FEC on this past Monday.

We’ve also heard that the Clinton campaign filed complaints to the FBI and other federal agencies over SoetorObama’s fraud in the Iowa, Texas and other caucuses: voter intimidation, registration fraud, and other illegal activities.

The last thing we were told tonight in regards to all of this was that “the meme here is a tying together of all these various threads. That’s what you will see in the last weeks of the campaign: all things being tied together”.

If everything rumored here is true, it looks like David Axelrod, Howard Dean, Donna Brazile, SoetorObama himself, and possibly even Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid were all involved, together, in massive RICO violations, and thus federal fraud, if the DNC and party leadership knew what the SoetorObama campaign and ACORN were up to and allowed it to proceed. Knowledge of federal crimes being committed makes all parties accessories to those crimes — and part of the conspiracy to defraud the public.
