[teltelamont]

WOW CNN REPORTS A PEICE THAT GOES AGAINST OBAMA....i am literally stunned!

[jamesmaseobrown]

ACORN's allegations are nothing more than right-wing media bullshit. The corrupt right media machine was doing their best to squash any grass roots movement involving voter-registration that didn't benefit their base.

[dust4life]

yup, its the RIGHT wing media machine you've got to watch out for...

PS: every organization wants to stop people working against them good catch! too bad they've got facts on their side this time...

[jamesmaseobrown]

The right wing doesn't go on actual facts. The so called facts are lies and distortions. The character of the right is that of deceitfulness. The people you depend on for information can do and say anything because they go unchallenged. You fall in line, because it's the nature of the conservative to obedient, no matter what. You follow the beat of the drum no matter where it leads,and when it fails, You point the finger of blame elsewhere and demonize. It's the nature of the conservative.

[greatmahoo]

I think the most amusing thing about your post is that it applies equally to the tow-the-line liberal/democrat. Reducing your opponent to a strawman does not make him easier to defeat. Obama is Not Jesus. He's a man and men have faults. deal with it. He's not the lord and savior of the poor, he's just another politician.

[jamesmaseobrown]

@greatmahoo

Nobody has claimed that about Obama. I think you're projecting a typical conservative trait onto me. A good example is the way conservatives idolize Palin.

You're typical black & white / flat earth mentality tells you that just because i don't hate him, then therefor I worship him. Conservsatives worship their candidates, not liberals.

Conservative ideology dictates absolute adherance. You're not allowed to recognize faults on your side.

[greatmahoo]

I dislike many of Obama's policies, as being ineffectual, wasteful, and sensationalist .I am cynical towards anyone who would see a position of political power. Making blanket statements such as "no liberal worships a candidate" is false. How can you accuse me of having a black/white mentality when you have jumped to the conclusion that I am conservative? Stop being so presumptuous. Poilitical idol worship exists across the entire political spectrum. Liberals and Conservatives are all sheep.

[greatmahoo]

Further keep in mind that your statment apples -equally- to TOW-THE-LINE liberals - people who will do whatever the democratic party tells them to. Simply be aware that liberal does not in all cases = good OR bad. the American left and right are not all that different from where I stand - both favor state control where it benefits them, be it over the economy, your wallet, or your lifestyle. Politricks want control. Why else would they get into politics? altruism? the "greater good"?Please.

[greatmahoo]

Also never accused you of "worshipping" Obama, I'm merely stating my opinion. of the man, and that opinion is that he's not all that great. He doesn't care about the poor, and certainly doesn't care much for personal freedoms or gay rights. That being said i would still prefer him over McSame, but that is saying very, very little.

[roscoe85cj]

WTF ~! "right wing media bullshit" ?? ... you want another pitcher of kooi-aid to go with your shit sandwich moron ??

[chirochrisf]

Guess you feel like an idiot now....

[jamesmaseobrown]

I stand my ground. This is more of the same. Attacking ACORN is very important to the right-wing. They're looking to destroy the organization as to affect the next election. The right does not want lower income to have a vote.

[luvsofttails]

Wrong, I do want the poor to have a vote, a honest vote. A vote that they choose! Not a vote they are talked into by the redshirt at the door!

[stargirlsusan]

"Obama Giving ACORN $5.2 Billion in Stimulus Funds"

A rising chorus of GOP leaders are protesting that the blockbuster Democratic stimulus package would provide up to a whopping $5.2 billion for ACORN, the left-leaning nonprofit group under federal investigation for massive voter fraud.

i can't believe it!!

[surferpeteinspace]

They have caught ACORN making thousands of fraudulent registrations! In Ohio thousands of these people have already voted. This is the theft of democracy folks, ACORN is turning the US into the third world in the name of Obama. And why not, Obama funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars to them while he was in congress. He worked for them and with them in Chicago.

[sommeflame34]

031008 All CNN workers Blitzer, King, Dobbsshould go out collect a bag of money go and purchase the election, give it to McCain. This way CNN dont have to spoon feet him, figure out how he can win, save lots of money and the best of this CNN dont have to campaign anymore on behave McCain any more. Game over.

[diverdan00]

Obamas formula for success is impressive. His cadre of anti-American handlers and financiers are almost Manchurian. Shameless media outlets spoon feed the legions of playground patriots who fuel his creepy success. They use glib little sound bites to charm the smitten drones for 'change'. Finally, the get out the vote crowd at the bottom of the spectrum seals the deal. These avid recruitment pups find eternal meaning in catchy phrases like YES WE CAN and CHANGE we can believe in. Embarrassing

[surferpeteinspace]

Agree, his formula is tried and tested, another thing handed to him.. use the word 'CHANGE'(Change to what, when, how!?), throw up Race and Racism to anyone who opposese so as to alienate and create difference, introduce his communitarianism ideas championing it as 'for the battler', use vague distractive concepts that appeal to people - without applying any substance or meaning....... people can't handle the truth! God Speed.

[diverdan00]

Thanks surfer I agree with you. Change can be good...IF people who bring it are very aware of our history and current geopolitical importance. condolences to the veterans of Iraq for what you may well endure now. Hopefully the old adage about the office making the man will hold true. I can almost hear pelosi and Reid's drool hitting the floor ;)

your comments where spammed!!

[diverdan00]

Whats this excurrahee?? Didn't you know that speaking against such glory is blaspheme and you have been relegated to the virtual gulag. Don't you know what's good for you?? Silence now, the proletariat has spoken. Sorry mate i wish i could unspam you but we may as well get used to this.

[Uwiluz60]

I know here in Ohio, Acorn has been getting votes out....Vote early and vote often...Its a mess, the sec, of state of Ohio, won't let the early ballots be checked by the board of elections. To see if they are even Ohio residents. They caught one guy voting 72 times for Obama. If I ride down the road, I see 20 campaign signs for McCain for 1 Obama. I think that cheating is such a crime against all of us. Anybody caught should do 5 years in prison..Anybody !

[surferpeteinspace]

you're comments where spammed !!

[dogsbaby23]

GO MCCAIN GO!@@@@@@@@@@

[WhereDidItAllGo7]

Vote Obama if you want Nancy Pelosi, Barney Frank, Reid, and possibly Al Franken as your new leaders..Fillibuster proof Democrat Congress...Nightmare!

Also, vote Obama if you want a national socialized economy in a crisis and mandated healthcare.

[nilychan]

Vote republican if you want more Bush, if you want someone fresh, who will change the country vote Obama. He may not be the best choice, but this election, hes the only choice.

WOW! I thought that only states could register voters! Democracy is indeed under hostile fire- this administration allows interest groups to register votes? We need more regulation!

[StrangeDays25]

LoL Obama will win and It says he is hiring Homeless and drug addicts to help him campaign? And that is a bad thing? WOW you McNasty people are Insane! He can't even get members of his own party to back his plans! Is saddens me to see all of the hatred and ignorance that is surfacing on the McNasty side of things! You people need to stop making descions before firs analyzing the choices better. And to you Rich Power addictied worthless policy makers out there thanks for ruining america!

[TalkingFrog]

Wolf moonlights as an Obama advisor and representative?

Nice to see someone in the press who isn't entirely in the tank for the Chosen One. Obama is dirty with Acorn--that money WAS spent for voter registration--which is where the corrupt voter fraud activity is happening right now.

And Obama is lying yet again-does this guy ever stop lying?--about not being closely related to Acorn throughout his life. We convicted 7 Acorn workers of vote fraud here in Washington State.

[crowsting123]

I think Wolf was trying to downplay the Obama links, while Drew Griffin, the reporter Wolf was talking with, wasn't and was trying to be as objective as he could be.

It's funny when the MSM can't get everyone to talk on the same points, and kudos to Griffin for at least attempting to be impartial. Guess he won't be working for CNN much longer....lol

[zsapatricia]

obama is the biggest hoax on america and people want to hand over their paychecks to him,,,dah!

[Craigbe]

Balack Obama:

"Organizing" blacks and browns against whites and America for as long as gullible Democrats have been funding them with TAX-DOLLARS PAID BY 98% WHITES!

Wake-up America!

The darkness is falling all around us, and if we wait for our "Leaders" and media to warn us about it......Forget it!

Without our white majority, America will become Mexico or Brazil.

That's a HEAVY PRICE to pay; destroying the richest nation in the world!

Just because many are too weak to face racial realities!

[ambsie0]

Obama is a fraud and a loser.

[tstrahle]

CNN is racist.

[ambsie0]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[glee1478]

Oh pulease. Have another glass of Koolaide

[DrZin]

Obama is such a frikkin' crook. This guy is maybe the biggest danger to America EVER!! Seriously, who's in greater position to damage the U.S.? Ahmadhinejad or Obama?

Leave aside for the moment that they'll be essentially playing for the same team.

Obama is going to HURT America and affirmatively bring back the shame and disgrace of the 1970s. He is the anti-Reagan.

[Reform2008]

Are you kidding?

"and paying to get voters to register is wrong because?"

First, because it's illegal - and it's a good rule of thumb to elect someone who respects the law (unlike Nixon).

But setting that aside for a minute, if you think that's alright, then how about I give you a dollar to shut up and to vote for McCain? Surely you see nothing wrong with that?

[mtemrich]

and paying to get voters to register is wrong because? I mean even if the campaign paid ACORn to canvass in neighborhoods where he felt he would have an edge, I don't see the problem.

[meinasalon]

Listen to CNN trying to help Obama distance himself from this scandal. Next question: How much did Obama pay CNN for this story. CNN obviously did all it could to soft peddle this one.

[usdesertdweller]

And "palling around" might not be strong enough a description of Obama's association with Ayers.

Google "Obama nautical sinks"

[claymaximus]

WOW, AN MSM outlet finally doing their job. They been hiding obamalamdingdong's past for too long!! About freaking time, next up, Ayers? Rev. Wright. Lets get all his shady thug connectioons out now!

[gmalekilla]

ACORN for Obama t-shirts?

WTF?  Barack needs to say something about this.

[cmaj91]

Why????

Obama IS the face of ACORN

He promised them that they would have direct input into his Presidential Agenda if elected.

He worked for them. Litigated for them. Trained them, and funds them (big time)

[JustAFocus]

Amazing that CNN is even reporting this at all.

And it's just the tip of a very large iceberg.

[justsaynodeal]

make sure u understand the full scope of OBAMA's connex to ACORN -- it is HUGE -- he downplays it but it is precisely how OBAMA THUGS infiltrated the CAUCUSES -- stay informed @ justsaynodeal! (dotcom)

[acceberemsti]

He wouldn't be in the general if he hadn't cheated in the primary.

[tynews2001]

Give me a break.

[cmaj91]

Well, his people in ACORN are cheating big time, as in "in your face" now. We're talking RICO indictments, federal crimes, and scumbags hired by ACORN who now have been caught read handed. And it is systematic throughout this thuggery ACorRNginization.

"But, but, but,.... he's sooooo cute! And he, like, speaks really good!"

(Almaost forgot - BHO worked for, trained, litigated for, and financially supports ACORN)

[wmgblake]

Scandalous.

[usdesertdweller]

Obama is a crook.

... is that racist? (LOL! Nixon isn't on the dollar bill, either!)
