Not sure if there is a thread on this or not, but Fox & FRiends reported earlier this morning that the college kids from Palestra who interviewed people from ACORN were called by a representative of the Sec of State of Ohio, and told to stop reporting those stories because they are helping the Republicans with their talking points.

Did you hear Bob Beckell chuckling over ACORN...defending them by saying that when he drank he would have registered with a phony name, too. According to Bob, it’s just a bunch of folks having a little fun.

WE, the TAX PAYERS, PAY for ACORN which is a CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE that specializes in VOTE FRAUD! STOP the FUNDING NOW AND PROSECUTE!!

Ayers also said “America makes me want to PUKE”.

ACORN is "distancing" themselves from the controversy? How do you do that when YOU ARE THE CONTROVERSY???

Simple. You tell the media you're "distancing yourself from the controversy", and they go, "OK" and stop reporting on it.

I live in Pittsburgh and someone called a talk show and said they registered their 15 year old. They setup a table in front of a high school (Central Catholic). The told the 15 year old that he was eligible to vote. He looks like he is 18 years old. The 15 year old went home and told is parents that he was registered to vote. His parents were upset and called a local talk show.

How hard would it be to “check up” on what is going on a random ACORN functions?

It's a shame to admit it, but you are right.

There appears to be a crime

Intersting phraseology

[GOPJ]

“There appears to be a crime,” said Steve Zappala, Allegheny County District Attorney. “Clearly there are people on these applications who have not been solicited or may not exist. They’re forgeries.”

Is ACORN a government subsidized criminal organization?

Ya know, I’m beginning to have some real hope. That there is now national spotlight on these roaches is breathtaking and beatiful. We all know what happens when the light comes on while roaches work their little hearts out to eat up your bread! Brunner is really pissed off at Greta, big time. (Delicious) But she needs to face it: She’s on the national hotseat and this shit is going down. I am really starting to think that they can’t win by cheating. I don’t think they’re gonna win, period.

I CALL FOR OFFICES NATIONWIDE OF OBAMA's A.C.O.R.N. TO BE "FREEPED"

With signs, bullhorns, press releases, American flags, and everything. These might be in inner cities, folks, so bring your flak jackets. I would be there to organize it if I could. This is an attack on the United States of America and our Constitution.

Be ready for anything, but at all costs, get the TV cameras there.
