How This Reluctant Whistleblower Decided to Tell All
The more I spoke about Obama and the Democrats part in the ACORN scandal, the more I drifted away from the ACORN 8. I never thought that their mission was bad, but ACORN’s subversive nature is rooted in pay for play politics and if one is to clean house, it has to be across the board. I was proud when Marcel appeared on Glenn Beck but often dismayed at the picture she painted of ACORN. Yes, the members are great people, but they do not need an ACORN to help them. Local based initiatives run by people in their own communities seem to do more to really help the poor. As more ACORN corruption was exposed, it became evident that reform was really not an option, it was a band aid on the Titanic. By breaking free of someone else’s agenda and doing the right thing, I was able to take this story to another level by doing research and exposing even more corruption.

ACORN ping.
Is that you, Anita, the former ACORN employee?
That would be me. I have been trying to get the real ACORN story out there for months. Thanks to two courageous filmmakers, ACORN has now become a household name.
Well, as well as a big thanks to you!! I did not know you were here. I belated welcome. And if you start a ping list, be sure to put me on it. Thanks!!
Did not know that this brave whistleblower is now a Freeper PING.
Welcome, and put me on your ping list when you make one. Thanks.
I couldn’t believe what I was reading. To see the inside story of what has happened to you is heartbreaking yet awe inspiring. Thank you for being so brave.
Thank you so much for standing up and exposing the truth about them... I consider ACORN one of the greatest threats to our country because it entirely undermines the electoral process :-(

A Brave New Freeper!
Great to have you aboard!
God bless you.
Welcome, Anita! Yours is an absolutely amazing story. Congratulations on knowing your own heart, using your own mind, and acting on the truth at no small cost to you.
So many others would, and have, given in to the fear or taken the easy way. Many on this forum can testify to that. Most of us have been there. This is not a forum for the “easy wayers” or for the faint of heart.
I am honored that you chose to join us. You got a family here. We will stand with you and for you.
Say it loud.
Welcome to FR.
Thank you for your courage to expose corruption when found.
Stay safe, and report to us any intimidation thrown your way by the corrupt and powerful. We will help you expose them for what they are.
Remember, conservatism is about liberty - individual freedom and individual responsibility. We have quite a few “recovering liberals” here on FR. Glad to have more.
I rarely editorialize, preferring to give you links to follow with a quote or a quip pointing out why you should.
I've started a running file on ACORN,
' The Issa Report- ACORN "a criminal enterprise..."'--Click the picture:
It is a "paged" format- to see it all, go to the last page, and work back.
I placed it on our Canadian sister site for a very good reason- they are located in Panama, and have no agreements with our government to disclose usernames or other personal information about forum members...
FReep mail me if you want on/off the list.
