ACORN officially a criminal enterprise
Time to finish investigation.
Quote:
Congressman Darrell Issa, Ranking Member of the Committee for Oversight and Government Reform, held a press conference and issued this press release along with a scathing 88 page report on our most favorite charity, NOT, titled “Is ACORN Intentionally Structured As a Criminal Enterprise? The title alone should be sending chills down the spines of Wade, Maude and the fang less Board of Directors. One thing I know as a charity you never, ever, ever want to be described by anyone, let alone Congress, as a criminal enterprise!

Quote:
There are number of legitimate questions raised about the political activities and organizational structure of ACORN. This report is about getting to the truth and when there are significant accusations and questions outstanding regarding an organization that has benefited from millions of taxpayer dollars, those questions should be answered and the truth should be brought to light.”
|
ACORN has evaded taxes, obstructed justice, engaged in self dealing, and aided and abetted a cover-up of the $948.607.50 embezzlement by Dale Rathke, the brother of ACORN founder Wade Rathke.
* ACORN has committed investment fraud, deprived the public of its right to honest services, and engaged in a racketeering enterprise affecting interstate commerce.
* ACORN has committed a conspiracy to defraud the United States by using taxpayer funds for partisan political activities.
* ACORN has submitted false filings to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Department of Labor, in addition to violating the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
* ACORN falsified and concealed facts concerning an illegal transaction between related parties in violation of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
Send them back to Arkansas.

Inside Obama’s Acorn
By their fruits ye shall know them.
By Stanley Kurtz
What if Barack Obama’s most important radical connection has been hiding in plain sight all along? Obama has had an intimate and long-term association with the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (Acorn), the largest radical group in America. If I told you Obama had close ties with MoveOn.org or Code Pink, you’d know what I was talking about. Acorn is at least as radical as these better-known groups, arguably more so. Yet because Acorn works locally, in carefully selected urban areas, its national profile is lower. Acorn likes it that way. And so, I’d wager, does Barack Obama.

A liberal summary
Obama pushed an aggressive agenda there. storm into Ward meetings and make hreats and demands. Very disruptive. Obama took Citi to court to force them to do mortgages to people without money and in bad areas.
He worked for them on their behalf and on fight the smears they say he didn't. More Democrat double talk.

IF they do a criminal investigation that goes back to Obama's days do you think his office he holds now would exempt him from prosecution?
Or do you think more dead people will turn up?

Death threats seem to happen. Pro life people have gotten death threats after Tiller was killed.
ACORN is changing its primary name again. They have dozens of other names and shell corporations. There are nearly 2 dozen voter fraud cases. The financial fraud cases are risky and the tax fraud cases are still dangling. Obama wasn't a director and it is a few years ago. He did hire them in his campaign. some workers got stifffed their paychecks. I don't see tax cheat geithner doing a tax case that connects Obama. Obama was not on the national board.
I may post some of the criminal findings on them

Re: ACORN officially a criminal enterprise
Quote:
Last July, ACORN settled what was described by the Washington Secretary of State as the "largest case of voter fraud in the state's history." Government prosecutors had filed felony charges against seven ACORN workers, who ended up receiving jail time.
Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Stephen Hobbs said in the case the workers had admitted filling out registration forms with names they found in phone books. The ACORN canvassers filled out the forms while sitting around a table at the downtown Seattle Public Library, Hobbs said.
ACORN was also investigated in 2006 for submitting false voter registrations in St. Louis. Nearly 1,500 fraudulent voter registrations were identified in the case, which was tied to at least one campaign, that of Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo. Four ACORN workers were indicted in the case.
Also in 2006, four part-time ACORN employees were indicted in Kansas City, Mo., for voter-registration fraud after being caught, fired and turned in by ACORN.

Obama has deep ties to ACORN, including with Ayers
ACORN is very active in Obama's native Chicago, where in 1997, some 200 members attempted to storm a City Hall meeting, resulting in six members being arrested, including Madeleine Talbot, ACORN's Chicago director.
In the early 1990's during Obama's community organizing days, Kurtz notes Talbot invited Obama to help train ACORN activists, beginning what seems to be a long-term relationship between the presidential candidate and the radical group.
Obama and other Chicago attorneys won a 1995 suit on behalf of ACORN, forcing the state of Illinois to implement the federal "motor-voter" bill.
While Obama served on the board of the Woods Fund, a Chicago nonprofit, it channeled millions of dollars to ACORN and affiliated groups.

Re: ACORN officially a criminal enterprise
And the democratic faithful ignore and deny.
Unfortunately a large portion of Americans aren't really concerned.
