Obama Demands Probe of Investigators Probing Criminal Group ACORN

ACORN has friends in high places.

Barack Obama's campaign is --strangely enough-- demanding that a special prosecutor look into the investigations of the massive vote fraud that is being perpetrated by the radical group ACORN to determine if the investigations are politically motivated. The New York Times reports:

Seeking to portray law enforcement investigations into reports of fraudulent voter registrations in several states as an extension of the controversial firings of United States attorneys, the Obama campaign on Friday called for a review by a special prosecutor.

Bob Bauer, general counsel for the Obama campaign, sent a letter to Attorney General Michael B. Mukasey and Special Prosecutor Nora R. Dannehy, who is investigating the attorney firings, requesting that Ms. Dannehy also look into the whether F.B.I. investigations of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or Acorn, were politically motivated.

In a conference call with reporters on Friday, Mr. Bauer suggested that there was “an unholy alliance of law enforcement and the ugliest form of partisan politics.”

“There is ample reason for us to be concerned about Republican involvement and we believe this ought to be included in the special prosecutor’s mandate,” Mr. Bauer said.

Given that Obama goes way back with ACORN, this attempt at misdirection is particularly audacious and clever. People who don't track these issues closely may be fooled.

Obama just establishes another link between himself and ACORN.

It took 30+ years of planning by Ayers and his associates to form and fund ACORN and Obama, and they aren’t going to let the con fail without a fight.

Dannehy is an Obamanoid Tingler. Yeah. Put her in charge of the probe to probe the probe.

Communist sc*mbag.

Look for a total perversion of the Rule of Law in an Obama Department of Justice.

Anyone who speaks a work against an obviously criminal Obama Regime will be halled before an IRS audit, charged with “hate speech,” you name it.

Well I’m sure the liberals (a.k.a. useful idiots) will jump on this. Hell, ACORN is politically motivated!

This has all been planned out years in advance. This is how he beat Hilary and now he will send armies of lawyers to get those fraudulent votes counted. Wonder where all the money is coming from??

Pray for W, McCain/Palin and Our Troops

Watch him in the Alfred Smith dinner as McCain talks about 2nd graders and Disney Characters being registered by ACORN. Barack is boiling.

There should be a special prosecutor appointed to investigate whether the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate the prosecutors investigating ACORN was politically motivated. Ya think?

SERIOUSLY???!!!!???!!

Why should the One care? He said during the debate that he was not involved in ACORN in any way. So what’s the big deal?

I have a better idea.

Let's expand the current Fitzgerald investigation to include voter fraud and suppression.
