The Leadership Conference on Civil Rights (LCCR) is a far left interest group.
The group opposed conservative judges. The group agitates for card check. The group is in favor of the Fairness Doctrine. It is chiefly an agitator for affirmative action programs and tries to pressure banks into giving high risk loans like those that caused the housing crisis. If you oppose them, they label you a racist.
LCCR operates like ACORN. And the Senate Democrats are about to give the $90 million of your money.
Under the cover of the digital television conversion delay, the Senate Democrats want to give the LCCR $90 million.
On page 38 of the Senate version of the stimulus, under the section Digital-to-Analog Converter Program, the Senate carves out $90,000,000.00 . . . for education and out-reach, including grants to organizations for programs to educate vulnerable populations, including senior citizens, minority communities, people with disabilities, low-income individuals, and people living in rural areas, about the transition.
Sounds innocuous. Heres the catch:
The program is managed by the Department of Commerce. The program is managed by the Department of Commerce. And the Department of Commerce gave access to the DTV education money to only two groups exclusively: the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging (N4A) and the LCCRs Education Fund.: the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging (N4A) and the LCCRs Education Fund.
Heres where it gets funny. Each group is now only getting about $2 million.
The Senate believes it needs to give $90 million more and only these organizations will be able to get their hands on the money. Only these two groups one group that helps senior citizens and one group whose members were Democrat foot soldiers in 2008 and, with the administrative costs theyll be able to take in overhead, will be well funded for coming elections.

I have heard Deerborn MI refered to as Deerbornislam or something of that nature...so I am not suprised that the democratic pork sandwich is going to help support HOBAMA’s brothers in the struggle... its not suprising, either that both liberals and islamic zealots see us as infidels...
