A former staffer for an affiliate of ACORN testified today that they were provided a "donor list" from the Barack Obama campaign.
Anita Moncrief, a former Washington, D.C. staffer for Project Vote, which she described as a sister organization of ACORN, said her supervisor told her the list of campaign contributors came from the Obama campaign. Moncrief said she has a copy of a "development plan" that outlines how Obama contributors who had "maxed out" under federal contribution limits would be targeted to give to Project Vote, and that it was her job to identify such contributors.

Moncrief, whom Project Vote fired earlier this year, testified for more than two hours today.
An Obama campaign spokeswoman last week had said the campaign has "no ties" to ACORN.
[ snip ]
Moncrief said she had received repeated warnings to "back off" from testifying today by people she knows at ACORN.

Moncrief said she was fired because she put personal expenses on the organization's credit card.

[ snip ]..... GOP lawyers want the court to force ACORN to make its voter database available and require voter education efforts. The Republicans also want the Department of State to make its voter registration database more readily available to counties. .....[ snip ]
Moncrief said she does not have a vendetta against ACORN.
[ snip ] Moncrief said she believes low-income vote canvassers were not trained and then were "thrown under the bus"-- facing criminal prosecution -- for frauduent registrations. She said there were quotas of voter registration forms for workers and that some were fired for not meeting them.
"The (voter) cards are tied to money. The more cards you get the more money you get," Moncrief said.

I don’t know of they can. If the media had done its job and covered these stories in any objective fashion then Obama would have 42-44% of the vote....at most.
Coordination with the Obama campaign!! Hugh!!
I hope this woman will be provided security to protect her. I’d worry about an ACORN “accident” if I were her.
Correction. If the MSM had done their job, Obama would barely be considered an “also ran.” They have failed at every turn to even peek at what Obama has been up to.
Have no fear. When President Obama makes those appointments, Senator Reid will get them approved. And then the FEC will look into these felonies PDQ. You betcha.

Re: Moncrief said she was fired because she put personal expenses on the organization’s credit card.
The ACORN credit card can only be used for making illegal donations to the Obama campaign. /sarc=off
I just Googled “Obama” and “Voter Fraud” and came up with 1,060,000 hits. Tell you something???????? And this man would like to take the oath as President of the United States? If anyone has a chance to get near Hussein, put your wallet in your front pants pocket and hold on to it.
Well, suck it up! 0's grandmother and spiritual leader had to!
Yeah, didn’t BO tell us to our faces that he doesn’t have anything to do with ACORN?
Are you talking about the Justice Dept. in which Bush allowed all of those Clintonistas to remain, rather than replacing them with non-America hating conservatives? That Justice Department? Yeah. They’ll get into the act just as soon as they are told to create the evidence necessary to files charges against Bush for his “illegal war.” Wasn’t George smart to seek bipartisanship! Now, who else does that remind me of? Don’t tell me....
BTTT
This needs to be breaking news and sent to Drudge.
