The Civil War Amendments were the most threatening acts to our civil liberties as Euro-Americans. Now we're reaping what we've sowed. Repeal te 13th, 14th and 15th amendments NOW.
Xenophon
13th Amendment ended slavery
15th Amendment gave former slaves the right to vote. Are you SURE you want to get rid of those two?

And the 1st and 2nd!!!!!!

KEEP DIGGING,WE NEED THIS CORRUPTION EXPOSED ALL THE WAY TO OBAMA.HOPEFULLY WITH CRIMINAL CHARGES ATTACHED.WE KNOW HE IS INVOLVED,THEY COMMITTED VOTER FRAUD TO GET HIM ELECTED.

community organizer obama is well schooled in how to recruit the homeless and poor and promise them money if they can meet thier voter registration quotas......and President obama is so in bed with acorn it is now obvious he took huge bucks from them for his very extravgant campaign. which he still seems to be on by the way......i understand there is plenty of evidence of unbelievable corruption in the organization.....we do not have a political leader with the "nads" to start an inquiry......can we please have term limits.....it is an absolute disgrace that we have people who have been in congress 40 years !
no way in hell that someone should serve more than 2 or 3 terms. This is the very first thing we can do as a country in order to give the government back to the people people. These politicians are so far removed from thier constitutants how do they know what we want. when they want our votes we see them all the time but when they are elected they never come back around .

Look at the ACORN nut trying to distract from their STINKY organization. Corruption isn't just exclusive to Democrats. Nice try ACORN lefty. But it doesn't change the fact that ACORN contributed to the lowering of lending standards, bringing on the mortgage crisis. They are slated to receive millions of tax payer dollars under the conveniently ambiguous (AND EXCLUSIVELY DEMOCRAT) ‘Community Development Fund,’ , to be used for "neighborhood stabilization activities" under division B, title III of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 in Obama's "precious" "stimulus" bill. YOU'RE NOT FOOLING ANYONE ACORN LEFTY. GIVE IT UP!

SEIU has organized in many health care facilities - and they have bought or intimated a lot of votes for their organization. When going in to work is so stressful that you dread seeing the SEIU backers you work with, it is truly a sad day. They back you in to corners and give you the business in order to convince (Push) you into supporting them. I had to leave my job at one place because of them. ACORN is a budding part of the SEIU tree. And they are all out for their best interests - not the rank and file or the company they are trying to overtake. I have been a member of unions who have not tried to utilize a slash and burn strategy. Sadly SEIU and Acorn are not among them.

I hope O'Reilly, Beck keep on this. Hannity & Huckabee needs to get just as involved. The more this corrupt organization is exposed and investigated the better off our country will be in the future. I find it so interesting that Obama also has close ties with this crooked, dishonest, and fraudulent so-called organization, in addition to his other radical affiliations. I'm tell'n yah, there is something shady about Obama especially considering the company that he has kept in his inner circle for so many years. ACORN needs to be shut down - it's criminal and an indignity to this country.

Go team Go!

ACORN. The organization that contributed to mortgage crisis. 1990s: With the mechanisms in place, the community organizing groups began directed strategies to exert more and more pressure on the lending industry in the cloak of complicity with CRA. Obama had learned and was teaching -- "direct action" -- activists crowded bank lobbies, blocked drive-up teller lanes and demonstrated at the homes of bankers to browbeat risky lending in poor and minority communities. Those who resisted were accused of racism to the media and government officials. The agitators could now stall or hijack bank mergers by filing complaints of non-compliance against the institutions. Lawsuits alleging redlining and racism began flooding the court system. With the prospect of expansions and mergers threatened, banks settled cases and, significantly, increasingly made loans they would not have normally made. The net effect, as ACORN litigation increased, was that credit standards lowered.
Doug
Precisely. All you have to do is turn on your television to see how loose and quick some people can be with their money. Minorities in these poor communities are not known for their fiscal discretion. ACORN and other groups have damaged the banking industry by arguing for greater "equality" -- which just means freedom to run the banks into the ground when minorities default. Surprise America!!

ACORN is a disgrace to tree nuts everywhere!!!

I will work for Acorn for free some one has to pee on Obama's posters.
FAUX STALKS AGAIN, REPORTED TO FCC AGAIN
Time to call the sponsors for Orally's contiunued stalking of private citizens. He is a creep. I reported this before and have made another report. The FCC says thousands of people have complained. We already had UPS drop him, who is next sponsor to pull away? Better get on that quick!
cm
You, Acorn, are not private citizens. You are funded by taxpayers money. You are the stalkers. Your people appear on the doorsteps of bank executives threathening their families and properties. You should all be arrested and made to pay huge fines. After all you are covered, you get enough taxpayers money to fund the harassment that you inflict on people, and all in the guise of racial discrimination. Acorn is a crooked organization and should be abolished. We can acomplish this by not funding this organization with taxpayers money.
pizzaman
orilley will live for ever Acorn is out of control they should not get a cent from the tax payers i call for a recall of the president and his cronies
MONTANABORN
Stalking private citizens? ACORN is NOT a private citizen!
Better look at your boy Barry for stalking private citizens. Better yet, pull your head out and take a good look around you....We surround you!
Tel...
"Continued stalking of private citizens" you said? So when ACORN and the SEIU were outside AIG execs' homes assailing them and their families, they weren't "stalking" huh? Ok..perhaps they were harrassing private citizens. You're a complete hypocrite.

If someone from ACORN rings my doorbell in 2010, when it's time for the US CENSUS, I will not give them any information about my family. I hope Mr. O'Reilly gets to the bottom of this organization and exposes it's many connections into corruption. I think the American people are at risk of losing their identity, if someone just let out of prision is permitted to take CENSUS. I better receive something from the US Government, in the mailbox if they want my information.
KJK
ce, ACORN is not doing the census. Only the Census Bureau can do that. ACORN and a number of other organizations are under contract to help recruit census workers, but those workers will be qualified, employed, and trained by the Census Bureau. ACORN has no role in actual census taking.
Lenny
KJK,
You say below you took time to look into acorn, where exactly did you look that the others haven't?
KJK
5280grl: I'm "so knowledgable" about this ACORN business because I took the time to look into it. I didn't accept what Fox, MSNBC, or anyone else said. Anybody can do the same.
5280grl
Again, so knowledgeable. Are you a member of the clean up crew?
Tel...
yes of course. Like the way they recuited "qualified,, employed and trained workers" to register voters. That's why they're under investigation in over a dozen states for voter fraud. Get a clue KJK..you and ACORN aren't fooling anyone. The entire ACORN umbrella network STINKS of corruption and political strongarming. They actively contributed to the lowering of lending standards that led to the mortgage crisis. You defend the indefensible.
ce
Until ACORN is fully investigated, they shouldn't be involved in any government business at all. There's more to come with this corrupted organization.
Bitter American
IF they wanted qualified people they would not look to ACORN to provide them. We have seen what ACORN employs not only on the street level, but upper management.
tainler
dont think so kjk. they are all corrupt. all issues..EVERYTHING is hidden somewhere within acorn. Obama is a fraud, treasonist, usurper and a big part of acorn. Some consider an actual acorn a fruit but i consider it as being a nut. either way, fruit or nut, they are crooks and ARE FRUITS AND NUTS!

CRIPS is an acronym for 'Community Revolution in Progress'--and originally were a federally funded orgainzation which "did good works but had some 'bad' members".
ROFLMAO
Everyone in every State should be petitioning their State Attorney Generals Office to investigate Acorn. Clearly our Federal AG and our Government Officials will not do it. This is a non for profit agency and by law has to release it's financial statements and all of it's affiliates.
Question is, What are our Government Officials afraid of? Why won't they investigate?
Heartland
Hopefully people like Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly will keep after this. I bet anything the trail leads back to BO and this is just what could get him impeached or jailed which is what he really should be.

Does anyone else feel as if we are living in some sort of bad reality television show? This all just seems surreal. Everyday we wake up to a new script of some form of controversy. Can we vote BO and friends off the island. You know in ancient greece the people voted once a year to get rid of one useless, unwanted, currupted, ignorant politician. Well.... even at that rate it would take hundreds of years to get rid of our shark infested congress.
NavyBrat
Will. I feel like the show we're trapped in is a cross b/w the Sopranos & the Twilight Zone. Extortion, graft, corruption, nepotism, tax cheating, Bill Ayers & Rev. Wrong heading a "peace conference," etc. The policies are mafia-esque in the extreme & the sheer surreal nature of said policies rivals even Rod Serling's mind.
WIlly
Sorry Sore Loser..you've alreaqdy been voted out like 7 months ago.(Nov 4).
Lenny
You agree with all this corruption and lies, not only by ACORN, but by our 'representatives'? You think we're just angry republicans, but it's just that a majority of the lies and corruption are on the democratic side at the moment. Pelosi, Dodd, Frank, Murtha, Biden, Feinstein, Rangel, Conyers, Nadler, and, oh yeah, Obama.
