We'll go after BoA for gold-plated commodes and Super Bowl bashes, but not for ACORN contributions.

This is an absolute travesty and outrage. OUR hard-earned money confiscated through taxation and given to a corrupt ACORN.

Where are Republicans on this???? Where’s Michael Steele? This is a perfect teaching moment.

Relax, it’s just a derivation of the “trickle down” effect.

Only, instead of having to wait for the “wealth” (read: taxpayer $$) to “trickle”, they just decided to throw the money as far DOWN (to the lowest of the low) as they could, as quickly as they could.

The fix is in on so many levels its not funny. The Left has got these corporations by the gonads and is squeezing tight. Although, at this point, a lot of these corporations went off the PC deep end years ago. There Left used to talk about the “Military-Industrial” complex; now theere is a “PC-Service” complex. Like Academia before them, corporate American (at least the biggest companies) have now been assimilated.

The Senate Carves $90 Million Out of Stimulus For Liberal Activist Group

"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.

Gee, ACORN’s grubby little paws get filled constantly, directly or indirectly by we the sheeple. No wonder BO won.

The argument that the DEMs will use is... "ACORN might have had some problems, but the do some really good work."

That makes a much sense as saying, "Dennis Rader might have been the BTK killer, but he was a very good dog catcher!"

Bank of America decided to allow illegal immigrants to open accounts some time ago. I've never forgotten that, and I'll never do business with them.

So now BofA is my company’s bank, and at the end of the year we asked for a $500,000 overadvance on our $15,000,000 credit line to buy raw materials to ramp up production in our 200 employee facility, after the disaster that was the 4th quarter of 2008. We have a lot of orders but couldn’t buy the raw materials we needed because of our cash starved condition following the 2008 end-of-year order stoppage.

They said no, so we are in Chapter 11 hoping for a financial bailout. Not a great time to be looking for financing or an equity player. Chances aren’t good we’ll make it. The bank will get their money from our collateral but the employees will lose their jobs if we don’t.

Don’t see anything in the bailout package that helps us at all, and we are the kind of business where real jobs are made and lost.
