As Long as Obama and ACORN are in bed together...

LOL, good point

Fortunately, the US has legal ways to handle such things without rioting.

There's been accusations of election fraud in the past three presidential elections. There's been lawsuits, or threats of them, but in the big picture, the outcomes haven't changed -- the guy who won the election remained president, no matter what legal courses of action were taken to pursue a recount. Legal doesn't mean it's effective. But start a riot, and get people on your side, and you'll turn heads.

True, I'm mixed on his reaction in general. He is doing well to not jump in and try to play hero to either side. On the other hand, when he did call a news conference to discuss it, he spent a pathetic couple of minutes on the topic, then jumped into his lies and rhetoric about his pet projects.

In Milwaukee ACORN, together with faculty and administration of some schools organized a "get out the vote" project. They were going to have the kids go door to door encouraging people to vote. It was learned that the kids were going to be canvassing specific, predominantly Democrat streets (most of which weren't even in the area of the school). When the schools were told that they could only do the project if it was non partisan, it was cancelled completely. In the last 2 presidential elections there were more votes cast in Milwaukee than there are registered voters. In Wisconsin we have a total idiocy called, "Same day registration". Voters can register and vote at the same time. The lie is that their votes aren't counted until their eligibility is verified. But there is no verification that that ever happens. In Milwaukee, members of ACORN have gone door to door asking people if they are planning on voting, if they say no, the ACORN members give them a card telling how to order an absentee ballot, complete with an address on where to send the ballot once they get it. ACORN is nothing but a criminal organization.

"Getting out the vote to areas that favor your political party or agenda is old school politics and not illegal." It is illegal if government money or property is being used to do it.

Getting out the vote to areas that favor your political party or agenda is old school politics and not illegal. It is an extension of the same problem we always have with Gerrymandering districts after a census. The "Moral Majority" had the same program going on throughout the '80's. Sierra Club is nasty about this. Opponents of President Clinton helped Bush. The Republicans National Committee is just upset that ACORN was better than their allies this time.

ACORN is "Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now". Which kind of begs the question... if they are for reform, will they still be for reform in 4-8 years when Obama will be the one we need "reform" from? :~D
