How could anyone be fooled by the Rathke crime family?

Of course, if the organization can produce votes in districts that are 20% higher than the number of registered votes (as they did in Fla in 2000) no one asks questions.

Think carefully. This bunch came very close to stealing a national election, with the knowledge and approval of the DNC.

'Lewis called the attacks "reminiscent of the McCarthy era."

"We understand that the Republican Party is upset and the right
wing is upset because they are out of power now," Lewis said
Friday on New York City radio station WNYC.'

Nice try.

What gets is this is just being posted for debate? This happened a long time ago and was covered up by Rathke's brother. This is old news. But, it just goes to show the contiuous corruption from these people, the media, and this administration for the continous support of this group.

The underlying point is.....Bertha Lewis now CEO
helped cover up the embezzlement. Their last in-house investigation was done by ACORN managers. She was one of them.

Bertha Lewis on Chris Wallace's show Sunday morning thanked the two for their work. Look at the other side.......civil discovery is wide-open to the defendants. You know, document subpoenaes, federal tax returns, bank accounts, video taped depositions. This is really a stupid move on ACORN's part! Oh well! By the way it's rumored more videos will be released on biggovernment dot com. There's apparently 7 more! lol

Good points. Of course, those on the left generally aren't particularly bright. They just get over with non-stop pushiness and an unshakable belief that they're elites who are entitled.

Hope the defendants get some backup funding to be aggressive themselves.

What does one have to do with the other. How is Acorn a reflection of Obama's presidency. That's like Saying Just because I own a Harley Davidson , A shotGun and a leather Jacket that I am somehow a Racist Hells Angel Biker gang member bent on usurping the Government.

I don't see the logic in the association , he was a youth and leadership Speaker. And was involved notably in ONE voter registration Drive before be ran for President (Acorn delivered only 5,000 votes out of 50,000) I reserve any judgment, until I hear or see some credible information one way or the other.

Dressed myself in green, I went down unto the sea.
Try to see what's goin' down, try to read between the lines.
I had a feelin' I was fallin', fallin', fallin',
I turned around to see,
Heard a voice al callin', Lord you was comin' after me.

I had to move, really had to move,
That's why if you please, I am on my bendin knees,
Bertha don't you come around here anymore.

Now Acorn as an Organization has it's Issues. And should be Investigated , Shut down and Revamped then re established it has done ALOT of good before it Self destructed.

Besides if you want to talk about Guilt by Association, you would have to remove nearly EVERY politician INCLUDING President OBAMA, BUSH, CLinton, BUSH Sr., Regan , Carter and so on....

and try them for crimes as well, because by association alone teh have been linked to Failed Banks, Crooked Law firms, Shady Oil Deals, Illegal Real Estate deals, Unfair Military Contracts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

ACORN should be investigated, Obama should be investigated, the New York Times should be investigated and both Brooklyn newspapers too. Last but not least a company called Forest City Enterprises is going to destroy your downtown area.
A little background on this company.

The CEO of Forest City (Bruce Ratner) is so arrogant, he's even rubbing it the face of the people of Brooklyn. Check out this video and remember that services like ambulances and public transportation are being cut to fund this crook.
