Anyone catch the Fox News special last night on ACORN? Here's a link from the Fox website (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,558224,00.html) but it is unclear at this point when it will be re-run. The recent footage of ACORN workers appearing all-too-willing to facilitate crimes pales in comparison to ACORN's past "issues." These include credible accounts of voter registration fraud, threats to companies that don't play ball with ACORN and the revelation that the brother of ACORN's founder embezzled a million dollars. It is a chilling account. Bill Clinton recently revived his wife's dopey accusation from years ago of a "vast right wing conspiracy." Turns out, the real ideological conspiracy has been playing out for years under the ACORN banner.
It's worth reminding readers that Vermont's own dynamic duo: Pat Leahy and "Corporal" Sanders were among a tiny number of Senators who voted recently NOT to cut off government funding to this corrupt organization.
And to think that ACORN was receiving public funds, and was commissioned by the Census bureau and the IRS! This mess makes any previous Republican corruption scandal look like child’s play – the Dems are going to pay a heavy price.
