They also set up tables at Wal-Marts and register only Dem voters. They do this by first blocking out the Dem block on the card, without telling the potential registrant. The Wal-Marts they choose are in overwhelmingly Hispanic areas like El Centro and Calexico right on the border near Mexicali, where half of the customers are actually day visitors from Mexico.

Anyways,this is long but a must read for those interested in what ACORN foreclosure counciling may well entail. In the last big housing crisis in the 80’s, ACORN’s answer was…SQUATTING! Read this, from ACORN’s website on it’s history in the dreadful Reagan years:

http://www.acorn.org/index.php?id=2752

Here’s a taste…

The goal of the Reagan Administration was to redistribute wealth upward, away from those with little and toward those with lots. It emphasized “looking out for Number One” and ignored the concerns of the needy or the long-term general welfare of the American people. The immediate impact of Reagan’s presidency was a severe recession with increased unemployment, a rapid increase in the cost of necessities and serious economic hardship for the lower end of the income scale.

and…

Long before it became fashionable to be concerned about the homeless, ACORN was fighting for homes for low- and moderate-income people. Noting that economic upheaval had forced many people to default on mortgages, ACORN sought to place needy people in the resulting vacant homes. This required the forceful and illegal (though logical and moral) seizing of the properties – squatting.

and finally…

First, local officials had to agree not to evict or prosecute squatters. Second, ACORN attempted to legalize the act. Then, local officials were asked to subsidize the costs of squatting in an effort to improve the quality of life of the squatters and their neighbors.

In my part of PA, Casey likes to paint himself as moderate.

Is his eyebrow symbolic of his willingness to cross the isle? What else can explain why he refuses to slice it in twain?

200 million? You’ve got to be kidding me. How would La Raza and ACORN have specialized skills in telling borrowers they borrowed way more money than they can afford to pay back?

Nancy Pelosi and the House Democrats wrapped up another busy three-day work week Thursday morning with a flurry of legislative action. She passed five bills naming post offices, created the official inaugural committee, and authorized the use of the Capitol Rotunda for the 2009 Inaugural. With that workload behind her, it was time to call it a week and break for four days until next Tuesday.

On the bad side, she and her Democratic colleagues couldn’t seem to find time on the calendar to bring up the permanent patch to the FISA law, the bill that already passed the Senate in bipartisan fashion and would pass overwhelmingly in the House, the bill that allows our intelligence officials to continue monitoring and tracking the movements of enemy terrorists abroad, and actually helps prevent future terrorist attacks on U.S. soil. So for almost the last two weeks, one foreign jihadist could make a 30 second sat phone call from one Middle Eastern country to another foreign jihadist in another Middle Eastern country, and because the communication technology routes a lot of this traffic through U.S. switching, our intelligence agencies would have to get a court order to be able to act on this 30 second phone call.

But then again, on the good side, at least the trial lawyer lobby can continue to safely sue the telcoms if they cooperate with the U.S. government to try and thwart further attacks here.

Meanwhile, over on the other end of the Capitol, Republican leader Mitch McConnell played another game of Lucy and the Football, with Harry Reid playing the role of Charlie Brown. Early this week, Harry Reid wanted to bring up, for approaching the 70th time since he’s become majority leader of the Senate, another couple of bills authored by Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold that would require immediate steps to withdraw our troops from Iraq.

Amen… Between federal, state, & local taxes, I’m allowed to keep some 52 cents on every dollar earned. Under an Obama Presidency, I’d be lucky to keep 40 cents on the dollar.

ACORN, La Raza, Mafia, Cartel, Soros; Obama, the Clinton’s, Murtha, Pelosi, Reid… Take your pick of the litter, follow the money, follow the chain of command and the path will lead directly to those responsible for most things evil in America. Who runs the Unions? Watch any episode of “The Soprano’s”, they don’t even try to hide this lil secret anymore. The best hope for America; keep Hillary in the race all the way to the convention, and watch them eat each other alive. The destruction of the Democrat Party will leave organized crime with much less of a voice in the American political system.

David Horowitz’ Discover the Networks is the go to place for info on groups like this.

A.C.O.R.N.

George Soros funds them:

In recent years, ACORN has received funding from many foundations, including but not limited to the Annie E. Casey Foundation; the Minneapolis Foundation; the Open Society Institute; the Public Welfare Foundation; the Surdna Foundation; the Woods Fund of Chicago; the Scherman Foundation; and the Ben and Jerry’s Foundation.

to give money to organizations around the country that are certifiably expert at this, organizations like La Raza.

but my mouth actually dropped open when I read

We know also the Association for Community Organizations for Reform Now, known by the acronym ‘ACORN.’ They’re headquartered in Philadelphia.

Wow… the unmitigated gall of the democrats. Grrrr…

Dead people, felons, illegals, and people who vote more than once are IMPORTANT DEMOCRAT CONSTITUENCIES!!!

(who else would vote for the likes of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi?)

You stepped in it big time and we won’t let you wipe off your shoes this time.

That is what I am trying to say, we are seeing the train wreck happening in front of us, and we have less, and less time to stop it, but once it happens, who are we going to blame?

Our system is broken, and within the system, we have to fix it. No more “let’s sit out an election and then we will learn our lesson.”

If we sit this one out, and don’t vote for a Congress that will at least stall the change, then the future will not resemble the past of this country’s greatness……
