Reid blocks ACORN probe
Las Vegas Review-Journal ^ | September 25, 2009 | Las Vegas Review-Journal

Posted on 09/25/2009 5:03:19 AM PDT by libstripper

ACORN -- the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now -- is stinking up Washington.

And this is far more significant than if a suspiciously large number of operatives for a purely "private" outfit had been found systematically bending and breaking the law, because ACORN receives and spends taxpayer money -- lots of it -- and had carried the imprimatur of official partnerships with the IRS, the Census Bureau ... the kind of "cred" that in the political world comes only from "who you know."

Democraps control the machine, Reid will win no matter how bad the votes turn out for him cause THEY will manipulate the election.
Thats IF there is a 2010 election
America needs to realize a Coup has happened. Just look how freely they SOB's in power are abusing what is left of the Constitution.

I agree with you. I believe the arrogant actions of the democrats are proof that they have control of the election process and have been assured by ObaMugabe that IF there are future elections, they are already in the pocket of democrats.

Dirty Harry is a criminal type politician and probably was getting some big bucks from ACORN for re-election. Has to stop any probe he can.

Don't expect an investigation unless the right takes back Washington ( maybe they'll cave, too). Without ACORN and it's affiliates doing the dirty work, democrats don't win elections.
Any attempt by the left to claim they're having an unbiased investigation of ACORN is a lie.

"With his home town rag roasting him this way Reid is about to become political road kill. "

That's one of the toughest stories on a sitting Democrat (that wasn't under federal indictment), that I've seen in a long time. Surprising.

I hope like hell that the people of Nevada wake up and throw that corrupt Harry Reid out of the senate come his next re-election campaign.

This clown has not only harmed Nevada he has Also harmed the United States.

The naked corrupting of a fair electoral process is treason.
Does anyone know the penalty for treason?

It sounds like Dingy is worried about what they will find. Dingy has enough problems without his ties to ACORN/SEIU being exposed. This is an act of a desperate commie #$@!hole!

disgusting, Reid should be investigated now.

Tossed out on his keester and his pension should be taken away.

Looks like we are going to ahve to wait until after the 2010 elections to see ACORN and the other democratic party criminals investigated. It gives us a wonderful platform to run on though.

“With his home town rag roasting him this way Reid is about to become
political road kill.”

I wonder how this plays with the powers-that-be in the Mormon church.

I don’t know how/if they employ “church discipline”, but you’d think
at least some of Reid’s co-congregants are going to give him an
earful over ignoring government-funded workers giving advice on
how to run houses of ill repute staffed with 13-year-old illegal aliens.

And cheat on taxes at the same time.

Reid needs to be charged with obstruction of justice.

Munz said: “disgusting, Reid should be investigated now.

Amen!!

Folks wasn’t Arizona getting a “recall petition” on John McCain right before 911 happened?

Couldn’t we do the same with all the corrupt critters we have now in every state...instead of waiting until the next election (if there is a next election)?

I don’t know...just asking.
