More ACORN madness

[timesjoke]

Nice one IWS.

 

 

 

 

I keep asking Bender "what lie" he is talking about because for Bush to have told a lie, he would have had to know there were not any WMD's there. How is it a guy who everyone says is completely stupid know things nobody else knew, not even Bill Clinton and Al Gore?

 

I have many more quotes from liberals who got the same exact information Bush got all agreeing to the same conclusion Bush came up with. So for Bender's words to be true, all the liberal leadership had to be part of the lie as well.

 

 

Does Bender really believe that everyone was going along with Bush's lie? I really want to know why Bender believes Bush was somehow better equiped to see the truth from the reports that every liberal could not see.

Tape number 5 released today.

 

This time an ACORN worker offers to help smuggle the illegal underage girls into America, ACORN itself just said they are going to run their own investigation but we all know that is a farce.

 

This group needs to be fully investigated, I wonder if Obama will allow it?

Lie -

 

1. A false statement deliberately presented as being true; a falsehood.

2. Something meant to deceive or give a wrong impression.

 

 

 

What was the lie Bender?

 

What did Bush know that all these other people did not know? How did he arrive at the better conclusion and know the "truth" based on the same intel that everyone else including Bill Clinton said proved Iraq had WMD's?

 

 

If Bush had access to other sources of information, what were those sources? Please name them.

Just a little reminder to the dumb masses out there, Acorn is a creature of the Community Reinvestment Act. Thought you might like to be schooled a bit!

 

On Capitol Hill today the House Committee on Financial Services under Chairman Barney Frank is holding hearings on legislation supported by the Obama administration that would bring insurance companies and credit unions under the umbrella of CRA, placing new lending demands on these groups and opening them up to protests and pressure tactics by organizations like Acorn. As proof that Washington is a looking-glass world where basic values and logic get perverted, proponents of the new legislation claim we need more CRA to rein in the bad practices of the housing bubble, which is sort of like arguing that the cure for alcoholism is another martini. Any review of the history of the affordable mortgage movement in America demonstrates the power that CRA had in helping to shred mortgage underwriting standards throughout the industry and exposing us to the kind of market meltdown we've experienced.

Do you think anyone would care if it was a purely conservative group who had been busted?

Even Bender, whose assertations can not be refuted, has said that all of this ACORN business is boring!

Well it most likely "IS" boring to them, corruption in their circles is nothing new. That is not to say Conservatives do not have corruption issues, we curely do, but the defining point between them is we remove our corrupting elements when we find them, they try to figure out how to keep their offenders.

 

 

Consider out of all 5 videos released, only 4 ACORN employees have been fired and ACORN is now pretending to be the victim filing multi million dollar lawsuits today against the young people who busted them.

Nope, Bender, no reason to believe that ACORN and Obama's use of ACORN may have violated election law...

 

Tax documents show ACORN link to affiliates

Association of Community Organizers for Reform leaders deny having ties to legions of affiliated state and local organizations, but federal tax documents examined by The Examiner show concrete financial links between four such groups and the national ACORN office.

 

Project Vote, ACORN Institute, ACORN Housing Corporation and the ACORN American Institute for Social Justice included financial transactions with Citizens Consulting Incorporated on their tax documents.

 

Current and former ACORN officers and members who are unhappy with what they describe as a lack of transparency and accountability in the group’s national leadership say those leaders use a New Orleans-based non-profit, Citizens Consulting Inc., to maintain centralized financial controls over affiliates.

 

Although the Louisiana Secretary of State described CCI as a non-profit in its registration records, no federal tax returns for a non-profit by that name could be found.

 

“To understand what is happening to ACORN today, try to imagine what it would be like if Tony Soprano took over Catholic Charities,” said Michael McCray, a former national ACORN board member from Georgia.

 

“All of the money that goes into ACORN goes into CCI first and there is no way to know how much is squandered or misappropriated,” McCray said.

 

Project Vote, which is also known as “Voting for America,” paid $1,266,967 to CCI from 2000 to 2004, according to the organization’s IRS 990 tax returns for those years. Project Vote registration drives have resulted in fraud investigations in at least 14 states, most recently in Nevada and in Pennsylvania.

 

Federal tax records also show the ACORN Institute paid CCI $61,443 in 2006 and $50,134 in 2007, and that the ACORN-affiliated Institute for Social Justice has paid CCI $362,464 since 2000.

 

ACORN Housing tax records showed a 2006 payment of $238,953 to CCI for “administrative services.” The connection has since been severed, according to Mike Shea, president of ACORN Housing.

 

“We no longer have a contract with Citizens Consulting for services,” Shea said. “We had gotten big enough to where we felt like we needed to bring it all in house and do it ourselves.”

The Obama campaign gave nearly a million dollars to ACORN during the 2008 campaign. Hmm, wonder where that money went?...

Even though, so far, there is no proof to the claim, that Barack Obama's presidential campaign just happened to give an ACORN group nearly a million dollars, and they didn't expect it to go to a partisan push for Obama to become President of the United States, is denial.
