   The “Subprime Six” and defaulting Democrat Laura Richardson were unavailable for comment.

   lol.

   I think those six are closer to what constitutes a regime.

   Hugo is their hero; after all he nationalized the oil industry in his country.

   Thank You for the shout out Michelle should also point out that ACORN is pushing for 1.2 million new “Voters” o be registered for the 2008 election.

   Given ACORN’s history of vote abuse is something to watch.

   Maxine Waters is a known member of a group associated with the international socialists, so if the “Regime Change” quote is from her you can bet she means it, in a bad way. Silky is just a media and general crowd whore, he will do and say anything to try and be relevant and applauded for his stupidity.

   State by state, they told how they were effecting change in their respective communities — from sponsoring forums to lobbying for legislation — but all agreed more had to be done.

   Of course.

   More Re-Education

   oops I was not finished.

   Acorn is just another way for Dimocrats to fraudulently register unqualified voters. They have been caught several times now doing this, It will only be in a dream that you will see anything said or done about it.

   BTW here is some info on ACORN

   VIDEO

   ACORN HOME SITE

   And their position on Immigration

   ACORN demands that lawmakers pass comprehensive immigration reform measures that include the following:

   A path to citizenship for the estimated 12 million undocumented immigrants currently living in the United States.

   Protection for all workers – both native and foreign-born – by upholding fair wages and working conditions for U.S. and immigrant workers and by ending exploitation and abuse of undocumented immigrant labor.

   Reunification of families through removal of restrictions and bureaucratic delays. Those who have waited in line should have their admission expedited, and those admitted on work visas should be able to keep their nuclear families in tact.

   Restoration of the rule of law and enhancement of security by providing a path to permanent status with effective enforcement

    BTW I have to point out this is a big issue for me since I have fought with the RNC for decades over the need to offset groups like ACORN in voter registration.

    I warned them years ago this was going to start costing the GOP elections and each time my warnings were ignored. I argued that a repubican voter registration organization was needed to offset these kind of activities.

    The result was the election of 2006 and the further erosion this year. The RNC is still utterly clueless and still not willing to address this issue.

    Didn’t the supreme court recently support a voter ID card? Seems to me all we need is that precedent and some grass-roots action to make that the standard in as many states as possible. We know what the solution is, don’t stop until it is implemented.

    I wonder if they checked with Nancy Pelosi about this and decided whether it would be good enough for her employees or not?

    But it is just about cheap labor right?

    What amazes me is that there is no public outcry against the unwitting and unwilling taxpayer being required to pay for this madness.

    Oh wait, public outrage only occurs when the issue comes from the other side. I forgot the fairness and “fake but accurate” doctrines of our news organizations.

    I have a question I have been unable to answer … perhaps you can put to rest something I have been wondering about through your sources …

    We keep hearing that Obama’s claim to having “experience” comes from being a “Community Organizer” in Chicago … was any of that experience acquired working for “ACORN” ???

    The demcrats werent silent. Most of them are pushing ACORN’s agenda. In fact they want public funding of ACORN with US tax dollars.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Ayers

    Civic involvements

    Ayers was tapped by Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley to shape that city’s now nationally-renowned school reform program.[24] Since 1999 he has served on the board of directors of the Woods Fund of Chicago, an anti-poverty, philanthropic foundation established in 1941.

    This became controversial in the 2008 United States presidential election, as Barack Obama had served on the board until 2002, with overlapping times of service with Ayers

    Oh, Brother.
    Calling for “regime change” a mere 5 months before a Presidential election where the sitting POTUS is not even on the ballot is hardly “progressive”, and decidedly NOT an exercise in any sort of bravery.
    Geesh. What a bunch of cowardly losers.

    the need to offset groups like ACORN in voter registration.

    I’m not sure the RNC can sign up enough citizens age 18 and over to offset “Snow White” and “Osama bin Laden” and all those people who list their address as 1060 West Addison Street…that’s ACORN voter registration…

    Otherwise, agree with you that the RNC needs to concentrate on getting people who don’t like O’s totalitarian plans signed up and directed to their precinct polling office. Absolutely.

    The last presidential election I was an election judge supervisor here in MN and ACORN was blatantly trying to push illegals onto the voting roles by falsely sponsoring them. Luckily, I challenged them and became an enemy of theirs; I will be back this Octobe and November and will fight them again. I would encourage all of you who can serve as election judges to fight the same way.

    ACORN is big in Michigan, Missouri and Ohio. They M’O is primarily to go into minority districts and push votes there. And when you confront them they scream “RACISM’ for all its worth. One reason the GOP backs down when confronting them.

    Do they still have ‘How to fill out bogus voter registration cards for fun and profit’ and Lying Eyes Wide Open seminars?

    Reunification of families works in Mexico as well, particularly since they allow dual citizenship.

    So let them take their “nuclear families” home with them when they are deported! No family breakups!

    So John Edwards was at the Acorn Meeting! How quaint! I wonder if Edwards discussed how only a year ago, he pocketed $500,000.00 from the Fortress Group, which was busy foreclosing on minority homeowners whose homes were destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. Can anyone imagine if Mitt Romney got paid half a million from the Fortress Group for doing nothing? The New York Times would howl for days. Where is the outrage when it is Jon Edwards? I wonder if the Ghandi like Edwards will tell the Acorn audience how important it is to lead a Spartan lifestyle and not waste money on expensive haircuts. Oops, I forgot. Edwards had his campaign contributors pay for the $200.00 haircut (not they knew they were paying for it).
