ACORN to Play Role in 2010 Census (plus - here is a sign you may wish to use)
fox news/ dfu ^

Posted on 07/21/2009 10:37:50 AM PDT by doug from upland

The U.S. Census is supposed to be free of politics, but one group with a history of voter fraud, ACORN, is participating in next year's count, raising concerns about the politicization of the decennial survey.

The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now signed on as a national partner with the U.S. Census Bureau in February 2009 to assist with the recruitment of the 1.4 million temporary workers needed to go door-to-door to count every person in the United States -- currently believed to be more than 306 million people.

“door-to-door to count every person in the United States”

The entire census will be done door-to-door? I thought the that was used for:
a) the long form which was used for a percentage, and
b) used when they didn’t receive the form back.

CENSUS ACTION The potential for wrongdoing is breathtaking. ID theft is a distinct possibilty ....... with the nefarious ACORN getting ahold of strategic info.

DO THIS When ACORN census takers show up on your property, call the police. Tell ACORN you don’t want anyone involved in criminal activities anywhere near you...... AND that you, yourself, DO NOT get involved in criminal activities.

PASS THE WORD---HERE'S WHAT TO DO: Have pad and pencil ready. Before ACORN attempts to get your info, you get their name, ID number, name of their immediate supervisor and location of their employment. Tell them you are reporting this to L/E and are storing copies with your lawyer.

===============================================

Most frightening is the WH colluding with ACORN to control the census----getting its hands on strategic info to be used for political purposes. The calculated Rahm Emanuel is manipulating the census using replies to build a permanent Dem majority. Americans are supposed to be counted. ACORN census takers will cook the books and enshrine illegal hyphanates as the "new majority" (a political goal of the Obamatons).

ACTION Call your Congressman and Senators at 202-225-3121 and object to this invasion of your privacy by corrupt thugs who could make use of your private info. MESSAGE State that you will not become an accessory to a crime that makes use of private information for identity fraud.......and that you object to ACORN'S invasion of privacy.

You might also video and snap pics of the ACORN census takers, They just HATE that, and they can’t do a thing about it -IT’S ON YOUR OWN PROPERTY!!

'Go after ACORN,' judge says
Pittsburgh TRIBUNE-REVIEW | Tuesday, June 30, 2009 | Walter F. Roche Jr.
FR Posted by Salena Zito

A district judge who held another ACORN worker for trial Monday on election law violations urged prosecutors to go after the real culprit, the organization that employed him. "Somebody has to go after ACORN," Senior District Judge Richard H. Zoller said about the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. "It's happening all over the country. All you have to do is turn on the television," he said, referring to voter registration fraud charges brought recently against ACORN and its workers in Nevada.

"We will," Allegheny County Detective Robert F. Keenan promised as he wrapped up his testimony. A spokesman for DA Stephen A. Zappala Jr. said following the hearing that the county's investigation into members of ACORN and their activities during the 2008 campaign "remains open and active."

I don't advertise I own firearms, no bumper stickers, signs, hats, pins, or that I am an NRA Life Member.

With Obama's ACORM thugs on the loose for the Census, there is no telling what miscreants will follow them.

If they go door-to-door and physically record your answers, the 'R' can easily be changed to 'D'.

Gerrymandering by government fiat.

Does anyone know if the census surveys are mandatory, and if so what penalties are imposed for nonparticipating? I’ve had to unplug my phone due to so many phone calls from them, or whomever is calling.
