Well I sure would not like to see Obama in the White House, can you imagine if a crisis happen he would have to go to the gym first before he answered the red phone.
Take your Chicago Hustler back Please. The country will be in worse shape if we let this fool in the White House.
He wants to debate while a crisis is going on. I hope McCain wipes the floor with him. Have his scrawny behind blubbering like a little BIOTCH!

ACORN: History, Activities, and Agendas
By Richard Poe
DiscoverTheNetworks.org
ACORN is a grassroots political organization that grew out of George Wiley’s National Welfare Rights Organization (NWRO). (For additional details on NWRO, see the separate database entries for George Wiley and the Cloward-Piven Strategy.) In the late 1960s, ACORN founder Wade Rathke was a protegé of Wiley and a NWRO organizer. Rathke also organized draft resistance for the militant group Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) during the same period.

ACORN doing its thing: Will Taxpayers Keep Funding Them?
Clarice Feldman
Reports continue that as in previous elections ACORNS’s fraudulent voter registrations continue unabated:
Two suspicious Seminole County voter registration cards became a flash point Wednesday in the Republican effort to suggest the community group [Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now]ACORN is committing fraud in its historic Florida get-out-the vote efforts. (snip)
The Republican National Committee, though, levelled the accusation and blasted the housing and wage advocacy group in a nationwide conference call with reporters, saying this wasn’t an isolated incident.
In Orange County, ACORN staffers submitted multiple, duplicate registrations on behalf of six separate voters this summer. One individual had 21 duplicate applications. Election Supervisor Bill Cowles and his staff protested, noting in a June memo that ACORN had been submitting sloppy forms as well. (snip)
ACORN has signed up 135,000 new Florida voters since January in just three counties: Orange, Broward and Miami-Dade.
That’s a fifth of all new voters. More than 58 percent are Democrats, who now outnumber Republicans by almost 500,000 voters — providing Barack Obama a potentially crucial edge in the neck-and-neck race in Florida.
ACORN’s voter-registration drives have come under fire from Republicans for being sloppy and allegedly fraudulent in North Carolina, Michigan, Missouri, New Mexico and Colorado, said Republican National Committee chief legal counsel

Housing Bailout Bill Includes Millions for ACORN, National Council of La Raza
http://countusout.wordpress.com/2008/09/15/housing-bailout-bill-includes-millions-for-acorn-national-council-of-la-raza/
There’s more to the housing bailout measure than meets the eye, says [Representative Michele Bachmann (R-Minnesota)]. She contends that members of Congress need to be called back to Washington to reverse the measure that, among other things, sends millions of taxpayer dollars to a radical illegal immigration advocacy group.
The housing package signed into law by President Bush extends an unlimited line of credit to troubled mortgage giants Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae and rescues homeowners near or in foreclosure. The measure also increases the federal debt limit by another $800 billion — and sends millions of dollars in aid to [the National Council of La Raza] and the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN.
Representative Michele Bachmann (R-Minnesota), a member of the House Financial Services Committee, says she finds it “unconscionable” that the legislation included funding for the two groups, which serve as political action arms of the Democratic Party.

George Alvin Wiley
http://www.blackpast.org/?q=aah/wiley-george-alvin-1931-1973
Wade Rathke the protégé of Wiley and founder of ACORN
• Leader and founder of the radical cult ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) – a nationwide activist network engaged in “community organizing” and in voter mobilization drives for George Soros’ Shadow Party
• Former draft-resistance activist for the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS)
• Former activist in the National Welfare Reform Organization (NWRO) and protegé of its founder George A. Wiley
• Co-founder of the Tides Foundation, along with Drummond Pike. Currently serves as Board Chairman of the Tides Center and member of the Tides Foundation Board of Directors
• Founded Local 100 of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) in New Orleans and heads it to this day. Rathke is president and co-founder of SEIU’s Southern Conference and a member of SEIU’s national executive board. He also helped launch the United Labor Union (ULU), which organizes low-skill service workers.
• Rathke chairs the AFL-CIO’s Organizers Forum and formerly served as Secretary-Treasurer of the Greater New Orleans AFL-CIO.
According to his blog (www.waderathke.com), Wade Rathke comes from a family of prosperous orange ranchers in Orange County, California.
During the late Sixties, he attended Williams College in Williamstown, Massachusetts, but dropped out before graduating. Rathke became a draft resistance organizer for the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and an organizer for George Wiley’s National Welfare Reform Organization (NWRO). For details on NWRO, see the separate entries for George Wiley and “Cloward-Piven strategy.”
In 1970, Wiley sent Rathke to Little Rock, Arkansas to begin organizing NWRO chapters in the South. By that time, Wiley – an African-American – was coming under attack by black militants who opposed Wiley’s policy of placing whites such as Wade Rathke in leadership positions.
Perhaps seeing the handwriting on the wall, Rathke formed a new organization in 1970 called Arkansas Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). He enlisted civil rights workers and trained them in a program (at Syracuse University) patterned after Saul Alinsky’s activist tactics.
The group’s name was later changed to Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, but the acronym ACORN remained the same. In keeping with George Wiley’s original vision, Rathke gave ACORN a wider mission than that of the NWRO. Instead of focusing only on welfare recipients, ACORN would work on issues touching all low-income and working class people. ACORN grew rapidly. Today it claims some 175,000 dues-paying member families, and more than 850 chapters in 70 US cities.
Wade Rathke is one of the most powerful – yet least known – of America’s hard-Left activists. As leader and founder of America’s largest radical group, ACORN; co-founder and chairman of the Tides Center; board member of the Tides Foundation; executive board member of SEIU and chairman of the AFL-CIO’s Organizers Forum, Rathke exerts influence over three major chokepoints of leftist power: radical foundations; radical public-sector unions; and activist foot-soldiers in the streets.
One reason that major media may shrink from shining too bright a light on Rathke’s achievements is that he has a disconcerting penchant for blunt talk – disconcerting at least to those who would hide the left’s appetite for violence and lawlessness that Rathke epitomizes.
At one point during the Florida recount crisis of 2000, Miami-Dade’s all-Democrat canvassing board attempted to move the recount into a room too small for reporters or Republican observers to squeeze in. At the same time, they announced that since they lacked time to hand-count all ballots, they would only count some ballots – presumably those that went for Gore.
The ensuing uproar in which pink-cheeked Republican frat boys in neckties pounded on the counting room door and an angry crowd of Cuban-Americans gathered outside the building demanding entry persuaded the nervous canvassing board to back down from their illegal plan – and likely stopped the Democrats from stealing the election.
Talking heads on television wrung their hands over the “Republican riot” in Florida. Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) said that he smelled “a whiff of fascism.”
But Wade Rathke, typically, assessed the event with greater realism. “[W]e allowed conservatives to steal pages from our playbook and do actions on us in Dade County,” he lamented in his magazine Social Policy. “We need an edge, some harder steel on the rim.”
ACORN Voter Registration Fraud Allegations Are Just the Tip of the Iceberg, Says Employment Policies Institute
Illegalities, Fraud and Contradictions Detailed in Report
on Lead Organizer of Florida’s Amendment 5
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13 /PRNewswire/ — A Florida state attorney is
investigating thousands of potentially fraudulent voter registrations
associated with the leading organizer of Florida’s Amendment 5 ballot
initiative. But this is just the tip of an iceberg of illegalities, fraud and
contradictions connected to the Association of Community Organizations for
Reform Now (ACORN). In recent days, ACORN has been at the epicenter of
reports on thousands of potentially fraudulent voter registrations across the
nation — including many by ex-felons — submitted by ACORN employees in the
presidential swing states of Ohio, Colorado, Missouri Pennsylvania, New Mexico
and Minnesota.
The Employment Policies Institute has updated and re-released its report,
“The Real ACORN: Anti-Employee, Anti-Union, Big Business” with the latest
details on ACORN’s involvement in what appears to be widespread voter
registration fraud. The report includes statements from former ACORN
employees on the illegal nature of the organization’s promotion of the ballot
initiative to raise Florida’s minimum wage to $6.15 per hour.
“This report reveals ACORN’s pattern and practice of deception and fraud,”
said EPI research director Craig Garthwaite. “The latest allegations of
widespread voter registration fraud should prove to be the last of ACORN’s
nine political lives.”
Former ACORN Miami-Dade field director Mac Stuart has declared an intent
to sue ACORN and has made charges of rampant voter fraud operations. Stuart
was employed and specifically tasked by ACORN to generate 103,000 new voter
registrations from Dade County. He reports that ACORN threw out Republican
registrations while paying for Democratic ones. Stuart also charges that
ACORN targeted ex-cons and that he personally set up registration tables
outside the Miami police department and Dade County jail. He went on to
state, “The voter registration project has been operating illegally since it
started.”
ACORN has paid workers for every voter registration card collected — a
felony in Florida and also illegal in Missouri and Pennsylvania. ACORN also
routinely accepted signatures for Amendment 5 from individuals who were not
currently registered to vote — a requirement under Florida law.
Voter registration and petition fraud is just the latest chapter in
ACORN’s long sordid history. The EPI report also reveals:
ACORN Involved in Union Embezzlement — In the late 1990s, ACORN’s Project
Vote was involved in an $850,000 embezzling scheme, where union funds and
kickbacks were used to illegally aid the 1996 re-election bid of then-
Teamsters President Ron Carey. A New York federal jury found the Teamsters
political director guilty of the conspiracy.
ACORN bilks AmeriCorps — In 1996, the Inspector General of the AmeriCorps
program stripped a $1 million grant from the ACORN Housing Corporation (AHC).
When applying, AHC had denied any connections to ACORN, since the grant was
not intended for political advocacy organizations. Evidence later uncovered
by the Inspector General found that not only was AHC created by ACORN, engaged
in numerous transactions with one another, and sharing staff and office space
– but it utilized the AmeriCorps grant to increase ACORN membership, a
violation of federal guidelines.
ACORN Union-Busts Own Workers — On March 27, 2003 the National Labor
Relations Board (NLRB) found that ACORN had violated the National Labor
Relations Act and was required to rehire and pay restitution to employees
terminated for attempting to form a union. The NLRB ruling is just the latest
in a trend of ACORN’s union-busting tactics. ACORN employees have
historically demanded higher wages, safer working conditions and more timely
contracted wages. These efforts have been repressed behind closed doors by
the hypocritical ACORN leadership, which publicly advocates higher pay and
better working conditions for private sector workers.
ACORN and Minimum Wage Hypocrisy — Most egregiously, ACORN promotes
ballot initiatives and local ordinances to force businesses to pay higher
minimum wages, as they are currently doing with the minimum wage proposal in
Amendment 5. In 1995, however, ACORN sued the state of California to have its
employees exempted from the state minimum wage. ACORN argued that being
forced to pay higher wages would mean that they would hire fewer employees –
the very dilemma faced by businesses. Incredibly, ACORN stated that paying
its employees a lower wage would allow them to be more sympathetic to the low-
and moderate-income families they were attempting to help. ACORN argued that
abiding by the state minimum wage would limit their ability to promote their
agenda and would therefore be a violation of their First Amendment rights.
The trial court judge dismissed ACORN’s suits, stating, “leaving aside the
latter argument’s absurdity … we find ACORN to be laboring under a
fundamental misconception of constitutional law.”
“ACORN’s history of voter registration fraud, hypocrisy, abuse of federal
grant programs, and disregard for sound economics should raise a red flag for
voters considering support for Amendment 5,” Garthwaite said.

I am very surprised at the behavior of the “demoncrats.” It is not the party that I knew for many..many years. Corrupt..ruthless..uncaring..that’s the “demoncratic” party now. Howard Dean sold us down the river…not to mention Donna Brazille. Good group we have there. They sort of match the “demoncratic “congress!! They most certainly do not have us in mind…It would be a takeover!!

Re: Last nite’s Debate ;
First of all Obama opens with a lie saying ” I warned everyone of this economic crisis 2 yrs ago ”
Where when prove it. Obama has Fannie mae execes advising him and has been working hard to get people low income loans that go bad. Then Obama blames the Bush Adminstration for failed economic policy. If Obama wants to finger point at the Bush Adminstration for the economic collapse of F&F Mae and the bundleing and selling of bad papper It is open season on Obama.
Secondly; Obama thinks the war on terror is a game of capture the flag or chess . In other words if we capture or kill Osama ben Ladin and 15 or so big A-Q leaders that his intell thinks are hiding in a cave in Pakistan the game and war is over. Well that is simply not true. Islamic terrorist are all over the frikin’ planet and there are other Islamic Terror orgs, in Iran through out the Mid-East such as Hammas Hezbolla,and independants to name a few and they are also hiding in Western Europe and even in the USA. He says we have single focus on Iraq! Oh really ( single focus ) then WTF we doing in Afaghanistan, why have we formed the Homeland security. I have news for you ,Obama Boy , if we bring back Osama ben Laddin’s head back on a pole the game aint over nor will the war on terror be over.
Obama dose not understand strategy or tactics or the enemy we are fighting that has declared war on the USA, Isreal and Europe . Obama is dangerous and decieving America with simplistic thinking and bold face lies.

HI from Fl. I was linked to this website from Hillbuzz.wordpress.com and wonder what people who have had to suffer from their poor choice of elected officals have to say about him now. And I laughed my butt off when I read the one from Judy R. about the missing couch slipcover–that was really funny cause I see her dresses and they strike me as a little off, but couldn’t put a finger on exactly what it was that made them kinda hurt the eye–but the light went on reading that one and then it all fit perfect. and I laughed so hard. Anyone in town know why she is not being shown to the rest of the country???? Not that we really WANT to SEE her-only wondering what snootie no good she is up to, that’s all.
