Sound and fury signifying nothing...

This just in.

Based on their success in stealing the 2008 election, ACORN has changed its name.
The catchy new acronym is defined below.

Commies
On a
Rampage
Now
Have
Obama
Leaving nearly
Everyone
Really
Screwed

This, as you can see, spells “CORNHOLERS.” The leadership of the group formerly known as ACORN felt this was a more descriptive name given what they did to the rest of us in November of 2008.

They suggest all affected Americans also learn another acronym familiar to most veterans: BOHICA.

Bend
Over
Here
It
Comes
Again.

Any “probe” of ACORN by Conyers will result in a complete white wash for ACORN and before the end of the probe, ACORN will be asked to take over doing the whole census.

Whitewash in the making. Conyers will end up giving Acorn a good housekeeping award and Congress’ imprimatur.

No doubt this has something to do with Monica Conyers, wife of John Conyers Jr.

It also gives me an excuse to post one of my favorite vids of all time. Here is Mrs Conyers getting pawned by 8th grader Kierra Bell. Miss Bell is the best America offers. She along with her 8th grade class visited City Hall and actually got to speak to Detroit Councilwoman Conyers soon after one of her publicly aired council blow-ups.

Enjoy!:

It is imperative that ACORN is exposed and dealt with. I believe this election was bought and paid for with corrupt campaign donations with the help of voter fraud courtesy of ACORN. Now they have almost 4 BILLION from their boy, Barry and they are going to be involved in the census. We need to vigorously oppose these crooks from being involved in the census.

I agree. I think he wants to investigate and trash the ones that are accusing ACORN. His goal is to try to halt a real investigation into ACORN because he knows what would be found.

Conyers “investigating” ACORN?

A mere distraction. Patter.

My guess is that the reason behind this is...

Do it now while they will be investigated by ‘friends’ and cleared of all charges. This way they can continue to flout and break the law and if a Conservative complains they will be told that ACORN was cleared of all charges and is above reproach.

My $0.02 YMMV!
