The Obama ACORN Connection

[freedomthinker7]

Try this racist ACORN Obama for treason before he destroys this country and this world. He is the most corrupt person to ever live.

[MrSally56]

Con Men , thieves and scumbags - welcome to the Obama administration.

[pinkballlightening]

Ron Paul was at this very Heartland Presidential forum. Whoa, a Republican shaking hands with The Center for Community Change...and that's who this forum was put on by NOT ACORN. The woman clearly states: THESE VARIOUS ORGANIZATIONS. Duh.

[PatricksTime]

another shocker...

[terpis]

Saul Alinsky was an ass-kicker. That's change I can believe in, my friends.

[scyphai]

Andd.... this means what. I wonder what would happen if the republican party started to scrutinize thier own party.

[terpis]

dear crazy wingnuts,

In Brazil they have "participatory democracy," where people participate in local government spending decisions.

That's the international cutting edge of 'community organizing' & local self-governance. Gasp...Venezuela (& others) have also run with the Brazilian model.

How long til this FOREIGN abomination comes to your exurb?

Soon we may all be soiled with the taint of...democracy.

[If only Obama were in fact the radical Dem the right is soiling themselves over]

[therealcaptobvious]

that's not going to happen here. As much as we would like for it to, it won't. Politicians get paid by the govenrment to make a killing by panhandling lobbyists at the taxpayer's expense. Obama has already promised increased spending. Which means he's already negotiated a lot of deals to benefit himself which the taxpayers will soon be paying for. Without senate and congress, if the people could organize our own representation this would be a little more feasable.

[JeremiahWrightJr]

And this proves?

[xscdnm]

This whole issue with ACORN is manufactured from almost nothing--just normal bureaucratic inefficiency and mistakes any organization makes.

It's just an election-year stunt from the dwindling and desperate New Republican Party, dwindling because more reasonable conservatives feel alienated from their own party as it becomes more and more extreme. Look who's left--bigots and crazies.

[Charbax]

What's wrong with Acorn? They are registering poor people so they can vote. Are you against that?

So what if Acorn signed some few Mickey Mouse formulars in Florida. It's not like someone with the name Mickey Mouse is actually going to be showing up to vote. It's not like the few fake registration forms are going to matter at all, other then the homeless who got paid $1 per registration form he manages to get filled out.

[brothermoon]

what are you talking about? nobody here said presidents should just listen to themselves.

[azjeff1971]

SCREW OBAMA. HE IS A FUCKING DERELICT.

[tstevenpaul]

People who support this guy should really study him. He's scary and can't possibly be good for us.

[usooze]

someone needs to find the video of when McCain spoke at an Acorn meeting.

[boyzorro]

What it has to do with ACORN, these are just the bunch of grassroots organizers, what's wrong in listening to their voice?

[brothermoon]

listening to various voices is one thing; having them shape the agenda of a new presidential administration is another.

[ChimeraLover]

Um, aren't the PEOPLE of the United States a body of 'various voices' Is not the job of government, especially the President, to serve the people? I'd much rather our politicians shape their agendas around our voices than those of the Political Elite.

[brothermoon]

in this case, the voices are not average citizens but, as referenced as the topic of this clip, activist organizations such as ACORN which have proven their fraudulent and unethical tactics - justifying the use of any means to accompish their end. allowing that kind of org to shape the agenda of a pres. administration is irresponsible and shows poor judgement. ACORN needs to be reformed itself.

[vegeta2332]

what happen in that southern State in 2000 or that Central state in 2004 ? tick tick .. yeah.. the STOLE it right in front of the people.. and people are ytrying to link connect cheating.. wow.. 8 years of robbing that funn

[efarthing1]

Between his ties to ACORN, which commits widespread (12+ states) voter fraud , Rezco, Rev. Jeremiah Wright (a blatant racist and bigot), Father Flager and William Ayers, Barack Obama has some extremely shady friends and associates. Here is a very telling quote by one of our Founding Fathers:

"The public cannot be too curious concerning the characters of public men." —Samuel Adams.

[ChimeraLover]

Sam Adams was right. Lets not forget Gordon Liddy, the Keating Five, or the fact that Sarah Palin's husband is a member of a secessionist organization that wants to "free Alaska from the tyranny of the United States government."

[Glomfuster]

Um. See, it's ACORN being defrauded. The people they hire get paid per voter. Sign up fake voters. Get paid for it. ACORN is the one getting burned here.

If only people would have the tiniest acquaintance with FACT before they fired up their typing fingers.

Cripes.

[Minionuup]

@Glomfuster

Oh really? So the people who ran ACORN were so ignorant and inept business wise that they didn't expect people to exploit their system? Wrong. ACORN knew what their system would do. 'Getting burned" was their guaranteed scape-goat. You leftists are going to know what getting burned is this November. Um see?

[colony14]

The gathering INCLUDED ACORN.

FACT:

On December 1, 2007, Obama speaks to the Heartland Democratic Presidential Forum, at a gathering held exclusively for community organizers AND members of the Gamaliel Foundation AND ACORN; Obama tells the group that even before he is sworn in as President, During the transition (period) were gonna be calling all of you in to help us shape the agenda, and assures them that they will be actively involved in the first 100 days of his administration.

[Glomfuster]

Yeah, dipwad, he's going to consult COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS. ooooh - scary - the ladies who knit for sick babies are COMMIES for sure.

Idiot.

[colony14]

If Obama's experience as a community organizer consisted of knitting for sick babies, then I most assuredly don't want him elected.

I was born and raised in Chicago. I know the history of Obama, Rezko, Ayers, Pfleger, Wright, Farrakhan, et al. They are socialists, through and through. (Well, not REzko, he's just an influence-pededler who preyed on poor blacks to make his money.)

[dingorex]

Amen

ACORN getting billions in the Stimulus bill was and is a fascist harbinger of all the fascist acts yet to come.

[ch3m6]

that is not ACORN...
