ACORN Voter Fraud Accusations Mar Obama Campaign

Accusations of voter fraud have hurled a giant mud ball into an already messy presidential campaign, with Republicans alleging that Democrat Barack Obama has close ties to an activist group accused of compiling fake registration forms, including ones for the starting lineup of the Dallas Cowboys _ submitted in Nevada.

If I remember correctly.... The Bush family has close ties to the Saudi family, Saddam, and Bin Laden...

In fact... the CIA equipped Al'queda with weapons...

Donald Rumsfeld shook Saddam's hand in the early 1990s...... and in the Iran vs Iraq war, they sold weapons to Saddam while supporting the contras in Iran.

I would much rather be friends with ACORN than with murders who I sold weapons to in the first place.

Now they resort to throwing acorns. What about the real supporter of a killer of doctors that McCain went to some meeting with and had her as his delegate to the convention. That is now, not 30 years ago. The professor is now a respected teacher at a university. The doctor killer support is present day. I see a difference in a man who over 30 years ago as a youth may have made bad choices, but someone who advocates killing doctors now seems a little more scarey to me.
Being a member and on the letter head of an ultra conservative group that may have done things in South America to foster an over throw of an elected government. One in which people were sent to jail over, being an active member of that group, not just accused of working with seems a little more close a tie.
Then being with G Gordon Liddy convicted of a crime that was in fact dirty politics and being on his radio show seems a lot more close then knowing a university professor.

Throwing acorns at someone when there are real skeltons in a closet is not so smart. BUT what do you expect from a group that does those things every election.

Facts can be very stubborn things....

Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama's campaign distanced itself Thursday from its $800,000 payment linked to the liberal ACORN organization, which is under investigation in several states where it is suspected of filing fraudulent voter registrations.

Federal Election Commission reports show ACORN-affiliated Citizens Services Inc. got $832,598 from the Obama campaign for get-out-the-vote work during the primaries.

For the first time in their sordid history democrats have actually put forth a traitorous candidate with clear ties to terrorism, domestically and abroad, from ayers to odinga to hamas. It's time to arrest him, try 'em then fry 'em
Real Americans vote McCain only terrorist democrats vote for the terrorist barak obomber hussein
Finish the fight America! Flush the foul terrorist obamaturd and his supporters once and for all!
Real Americans will vote Obama the next president of the United States, real losers will vote for McCain.

Early Voting: Ethical And Legal Concerns
Is ACORN Registering Voters Multiple Times?
ACORN has been linked to cases of suspected voter fraud in multiple states. Palestra.net 's Shelby Holliday talked to Lauren Long of Columbus, Ohio, who says she has been pressured by ACORN volunteers to register countless times.

I have been a pollworker in Ohio for several years. We have never allowed any campaign clothing or buttons in the polling place. I have asked more than one person to put on a jacket or turn a T-shirt wrong-side out while voting. No one can campaign in any way within a certain number of feet outside the building. Also, we do have to verify a voter's address or put the ballot in a secure provisional envelope until the Board of Elections can verify it.I believe that is what is supposed to happen with the early voters and many of them SHOULD be discarded if they cannot be verified. This election day should certainly be a very "interesting" day!!

He was a trainer for Acorn and has faciliated hundreds of thousands of dollars of donations to them. In fact, the reason the Republicans wouldn't sign the first bail out bill was because the Dems had loaded it with millions in contributions to ACORN. This is very relevant. Get educated, then speak please.

Quit spamming with your Obama lies. You can't just keep throwing the same post over and over. You'll get reported for abuse and your IP will get blocked. Does the campaign keep paying you if don't post 100 responses an hour?

I saw an African American gentleman on the news today that said he got paid cash and cigarettes by acorn workers to sign even though he told them he had already registered. Why is it that even when this type of evidence is clear and present the liberals still give Obama a free pass?

You're full of sh!t on that first vote, the republicans wouldn't vote for it until they added another $118 billion of their own pork to it. That's the kind of "change" you can expect from that party.

Dang. Redneck Republicans will grasp at anything now wont they?

Not only was your mommy desperate when she conceived you, but I do believe you are more deperate than she ever was.

Its funny to see the GOP using all the things they are guilty of in their accusations.

OBAMA PALLS WITH TERRORISTS

(McCain actually is a pal with a terrorist woman that shot a doctor in both arms for giving an abortion and then bragged about it. The judge called her a terrorist. Shes been a delegate for the GOP.)

OBAMA COMMITS VOTER FRAUD

(I dont need to elaborate on this one. Remember 2000 and 2004? More of the same. They know we're watching but they have to try something! Now they will try to make Obama responsible for it!)

Looks like the trend set by the GOP is to turn voters away from Obama any way they can. Dont even think that any GOP supporters are gonna change their minds at this point. They are mostly just rednecks and Jesus lovers. We kinda want them to fade away anyhow. WE ACTUALLY NEED INTELLIGENCE!)

Then their buddies at AIG who got $85 BILLION went to a resort, blew half a million on spa treatments and came back to the government to ask for more money!!

You're an absolute lying idiot if you deny the millions or earmarks to Acorn in the first bail out bill. The repubs were outraged. I was outraged. You're just like Obama. You can't be trusted because you NEVER speak the truth.

Acorn is a group of individuals who helped create this sub prime mess by intimidating banks into giving loans to people who could afford them.

LOL...no way someone as simple minded, angry and dishonest could ever truly have enough influence to make more money than I'll make in ten years. By the way O' judgemental one...exactly how do you presume to have any idea what I make in a year? You don't. So you see, you're just another underachieving, angry wind bag.
