Obama and Acorn

[Geographer76]

Several Obamabots I have debated claim that Obama never had anything to do with ACORN, but Judicial Watch says differently.

From the Judicial Watch website;

Barack Obama served as Director for Project Vote in 1992. The organization, which works to register low-income and minority voters, was founded in 1982. Project Vote is affiliated with ACORN, . . .

Think "if" Obamaination gets in the Oval Office how much national security is gona be exposed. Obama having friends as William Ayers the domestic terrorist, J. Wright as his spiritual mentor, Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam that lives just down the street from the Obama's and W. Ayers just a few doors down. With Obama in Office the nations security will be exposed to thugs,terrorist,Muslims,just thinking of it makes me ill. America is reaching for lower standards and not higher ones.

Obamas close ties to ACORN leader Madeline Talbott, who personally led Chicago ACORNs campaign to intimidate banks into making high-risk loans to low-credit customers. Using provisions of a 1977 law called the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA), Chicago ACORN was able to delay and halt the efforts of banks to merge or expand until they had agreed to lower their credit standards — and to fill ACORNs coffers to finance counseling operations

Acorn is against anything that might keep them from voter fraud, they are good at it.

(In my area)

Retail food workers (grocery) unionized by UFCW are exploited. BTW all three top food chains in my area are UFCW shops. Under union contracts the stores only need to have a hand full of full time checkers. The rest only receive upon average 25 hours per week in five hour shifts.

Five days of going in to work for a measly 25 hours pay. During slow periods, like in after holidays, some even have been given 10-15! scheduled hrs. Pay check to paycheck???

[scarlett828]

Even at 25 hours there is not even enough money to live, period.

All workers receive full benefits. And yes the benefits are spectacular. Though a worker must wait two years before becoming eligible. BUT there is a big catch. Workers must hold 100 hours per month in order to be eligible.

I know someone personally who once she was eligible her hours were cut so she was not eligible.

[scarlett828]

Just one weekly schedule of under 25 hours will strip a worker of eligibility. Knocking the monthly hours under the required 100 hours.

Plus to add more weirdness. It is gauged every other month. Say a worker was not given enough hours in June, then she would not be eligible for benefits in August. What if a health issue came up? She would be out of luck.

They are mostly in it for them selves. In the particular store I speak of the union is in league with the management.

[gismotech]

unions are out for the union and the ones running it, they do not care about the workers at all

[menana2u]

Yea, I wonder why he disagrees with voter ID laws? This is so sad that it is terrifying.

[computerpurple]

Yes indeed obama is a socialist.

[antivoterfraud]

Of course he won't, distance himself, i mean. He needs them. Although they wouldn't care if he did anyway, cause they know he would only do it to win the election.

Not too many people know about this...Obama needs to step up and explain his previous associations and current ties w/this company. He never will.
