Word on the street is that these offices have recently been tasked with recall activities against Wisconsin republican senators, and activism in support of Democrat state senators.

Which leads to a few thoughts:

1) Where is the money coming from to staff 59 storefront offices, 96 hours a week?

2) How are the employees compensated and what are their benefits?

3) What activities are they engaging in?

4) Are they working to undermine and influence local governments at the request of the White House?

Any boots on the ground recon is appreciated.

From TAXPAYERS, via the Union Dues paid by public employees (SEIU, AFSCME, NEA, AFT, etc.), via the money-laundering scheme known as Public Employee Unions.

This is ALL ABOUT funding the Agenda, and has NOTHING to do with education or public safety.

You beat me to it. There’s gotta be quite a bit of overhead there.

Would be nice to punk them and fill the positions with conservatives. Then apply union work standards. Work an hour, take a couple of hours off. File for family medical leave.

Baraq never seems to lack for money. As a matter of fact it's always been interesting to me that he could spend millions on putting all his historical records in a "lockbox" before he ever had any real wealth.

It’s interesting that the AFL-CIO is now using poster imagery from the International Socialist Organization.

One more thought:

5) Are the Organizing for America? employees members of a union and do they have collective bargaining “rights”?

They maintain a permanent call center (Phone bank) in Milwaukee that is open 80+ hours a week.

How many “concerned constituent” calls to legislators are flooding Madison each day from that address?

Don’t know if this is helpful, but it’s happening all over the country on Craigslist. Note that all of these were found by ONLY searching in the city of Milwaukee under just one keyword “organizer”. Who knows how many more there are? Also note...PAID positions.

The office here in Beavercreek, OH (1337 Hanes Road, Beavercreek, OH) was previously the ACORN office. I wonder how many of these offices have that lineage???

NO NO NO NO,, a troll must have posted this. Call the numbers at the site and you will find they are no longer active. This is a leftover from the 2008 campaign, posted here to try and deceive and deflect.

The real story is here.......
