Enough to override a veto by Zippy.
I can’t wait to see what he does.

Fear not, they’ll re-fund them again somewhere else... like on page 1,797 of the healthcare bill or somepleace like that.

He’ll say nothing, but do an executive order to fund the same organization which will have a new name soon.

Including $8.5 billion in stimulus, I would think. LOL.

All 75 no votes were Democrats. And most (if not all) of those 75 owe their election victories to ACORN's voter fraud schemes.

I’m sure a bunch of them would like to but they might not try it for a while. They know too many people are watching now.

I’m curious to see the list.
I’m sure that every single one of them is in a safely gerrymandered Dhimmi district. And you know the entire Black Caucus voted to keep funding them.

Every time I’ve tried to post from that I get it rejected - not even an excerpt allowed. How did you do it?

Makes me think the 75 no votes need to be swept out the door in 2010!

Most of them are in very safe districts that has no chance to electing any one else.

Conyers voted to defund? Wonder what his angle is?
Frank is a no vote.

Just normally. Under News/Activism. I did nothing unusual and experienced no problems.
Do you get a notice from FR saying that we are not supposed to post from that site? Or does it cause you technical problems?

I’m guessing they will fund it under a different name.

Republicans, long critics of the liberal-leaning group that
advocates for the poor engages in widespread voter fraud, voter intimidation, tax cheating, prostitution rings and child slavery, led the effort to cut off all federal funds
Fixed it. You don't cut off funding to advocates of the poor. You cut off funds to criminals.

I don't go over to DU often as I always feel like I need a shower after, but I saw this posted over there on a thread about this and I though I should share!
"Acorn was caught doing some pretty indefensible things. OTOH I am sure that they were continuing to do some excellent and much needed work. But nevertheless I think ACORN as as good as dead at this point. And Beck's snicker makes it even worse."

This article says to ‘defund ALL’ Acorn funding, is that true? I read defunding, only part of ACORN’s tentacles...Anyone?
