EDITORIAL: ACORN to count heads for Census

The Washington Times ^ | March 20, 2009 | Editorial

First it was President Obama trying to break all precedent and run the 2010 census from within the White House. While the administration finally backed down from that politicization of the census, it clearly hasn't learned its lesson. Now it is having ACORN officially "partner" with the Census to help count the number of Americans in the country. It's like Santa trusting a child to tell him how many times he or she has been good in the past year.

We could write a book on the false voter registrations submitted by ACORN. There are bizarre stories, such as one from Cleveland, where ACORN employees reregistered the same individual 77 times, even though the individual kept on telling the ACORN workers that he was already registered. But ACORN's people kept offering to bribe him with cigarettes or money to get him to fill out another form. Similar examples from across the United States are too numerous to count.

King County (Seattle) election officials were forced to remove 1,762 voter registrations submitted by one group of ACORN employees. Five employees were sentenced to jail. The Delaware County Times noted that out of 2,000 fraudulent voter registration forms in that Pennsylvania county, nearly every single one was filed by ACORN. Chicago had 10,000 false registrations. Criminal indictments and convictions have been leveled in numerous states.

Ii bought the Philadelphia Inquirer yesterday for the first time in years. Not for myself, but for my Dad - who likes to read newspapers and is a Democrat.

On page C-1 (Business), the headline was Obama Plan Popular - A Survey Shows Servicers Set to Join Obama Effort.

An Inquirer staff writer named Jeff Gelles wrote this:

"Mortgage services who handle more than three-forths of the nation's home loans intend to participate in Obama's mortgage-modification program, according to a survey by the nonprofit group Acorn.

This is what passes for "news" by Liberal Communists like the guy who wrote this.

Non-profit group. They are trying to paint the corrupt and evil Acorn organization as akin to "Save the Puppies."

Acorn had a hand in this mortgage meltdown. They have stolen thousands, if not millions, of votes. They were raided by the FBI in numerous cities last fall for election fraud - and all of that has been squashed by the current Obama crime syndicate. Their lobbyists have had Billions inserted into the "stimulus" bill of our money to fund their illegal activities.

"Non-profit?"

We are living in the Last Days - and God is coming back soon.

Acorn HAS to get involved, elstwise the MASSIVE corruption of the 2K8 election will be plainly obvious.
Sure there are a few investigations now, and a few people in jail - but thats what Risk Assesment is all about.

A Census without fraud would expose the previous MASSIVE fraud that ACORN and other Dem supporting groups as the Cockroaches that they are.

[lucky american]

Just think... Obama, president for life. It could happen if he has enough supporters in all of the areas that matter. I mean, who cares about the Constitution anyway, it's just a 200 year old piece of paper. He just ordered a trillion dollars to go from one pocket to the other in Treasury's.This bypasses congress's OK. He can do whatever he wants and there is no one to stop him.

my cousin applied for a job @CB, took the test,passed, etc...
she’s more or less retired from her old job now but still needs work to keep things going. I ran across this info on ACORN being one of 17 contractors for the Census. I gave her fair warning and had to re-edumicate the dear about ACORN.
I hope she finds something other than the CB please keep her in your prayers. She’s the dearest to me and needs a job to pay the day-to-day. Thanks!

[Woebama]

Where’s the outrage?

[RU88]

“A Census without fraud would expose the previous MASSIVE fraud that ACORN and other Dem supporting groups as the Cockroaches that they are.”

Great point. The question is, how do we stop it.

[cajungirl]

Things are moving too fast for the outrage to get organized.

I swear that is the plan. Hr 1388 passed yesterday,,the GIVE bill, the brownshirts you know. You ought to google and read the details,,that is where the devil is.

The movement to destroy and remake this country is too fast,,it is a speeding train. We cannot even pay attention to what is going on what with the manufactured outrage and attacks on business.

THis is a revolution in progress and by the time people realize what is going on, we don’t even know the extent of it, it will be too late.

God will need to help us, there will be ittle else when this man gets thru with us.

“Obama, president for life.”

Don't know if he will be pres for life. But, he and the Dem Leadership are gaming the system so that they will never loose another election. Look at Pelosi out there in California reeling in the illegal vote. Then, there's the Freedom of Information Act - aimed at increasing union membership by passing the Employee Free Choice Act which will allow voters decisions to be known by the union. Then, let's not forget Acorn; these riggers of corruption and fixed elections. What's even worse is that the Dem’s are in the process of strengthening these corrupt practices while the Republicans walk around in a circle with their thumbs stuck up their @$$’$...

[ChetNavVet]

The same way we always do, call/email your congress/senate types, tell all famiy, friends, coworkers, and neighbors.

Not just about this one point, but about every point that concerns you.

Show up at one of the upcomming TEA party rallies if you can.

I may not be able to do all those thing, But I at least feel obligated to inform those I can, and tohse that would listen.

Example, I need to buy more blank DVD’s because I need to burn some copies of a recent film I found on YouTube, (”The Obama deception” at prisonplanet.com) to send to extended family.

[MindBender26]

like Santa trusting a child to tell him how many times he or she has been good in the past year.

I think it more like letting a three-time convicted child molester play Santa Claus in the taxpayer-funded department store, and get a cheap grope in every time some little boy sits on his lap.

Doesn't the rest of America know Obama and the ACORN crowd are all laughing at our stupidity?

[bert]

The people who work for Acorn can’t count past 10 unless they go barefoot.

[donmeaker]

Running the Census from the White house is not just breaking tradition, it is breaking the law.

[donmeaker]

or open their zippers.

[Travis McGee]

Welcome to the banana republic called the USSA.

[HollyB]

Is there any shame, any embaressment, anything? It’s so blatant. To use a politically biased organization with known voter fraud to work on our census tells me that ethical lines have been erased and there is no concern on who knows it.

The problem is that most people don’t have a clue on how Acorn operates, what they have done, and how this will effect their future. So, if the news media runs a story about Acorn and the Census, they will probably skim over it and think nothing of it.
