		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;As long as taxpayers are subsidizing ACORN and its affiliates, we need to use every measure possible to ensure that those dollars are being spent and managed appropriately,” Issa said. “The way in which ACORN
and its affiliates have structured their organization raises significant questions regarding their intent and use of federal dollars. Clearly just taking them at their word is not sufficient enough oversight&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Wow, don&#039;t be too hard on them Rep Issa. /sarc off

There should be calls for investigations, prosecutions, and the organization dissolved. Instead we get this limp wristed letter. So if ACORN resturcutres and puts business controls in place, are they OK with funding going to ACORN? The republicans are so mired in PC these days, they won&#039;t call a spade a spade for fear of being called a racist. This is a step in the right direction but it is far from the strong actions that should be taken immediately, IMHO.</description>

		<description>Wanna bet...

The folks at the John Adams Project start taking pictures of the IGs in front of their homes and with their families?  Then they will show these pictures to ACORN people who lose their jobs.</description>

I nearly fell out of my chair when I heard he say this. He is an arrogant fool and it will be fun to watch Beck surpass him in the ratings. I wish he&#039;d get off his kick about wanting Obama to come on the Factor.</description>

Perhaps the Republicans, Presidents and Attorney Generals too, were all in the underground and did not know this was going on.We could call them “Good Republicans”. All too many of them were thinking “our turn” and lived large at the public trough. So we got Bridges to No Where, record deficits (pre Obama)and the fools wonder why so many people sat on their votes.
Tis a house cleaning of monumental proportions we need. If were are ever going to break this 50/50 spit in the electorate we need some ADULT leadership in the Party. They have some ’splaning to do.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I was going to say the same thing. You said it well. I agree that it&#039;s time for some major housecleaning in both parties. Time to put these people out on the street and let them try to find honest work.</description>

		<description>Malfeasant politicians and their enablers in the PACs and Wall Street need to be prosecuted by the truckload. Defund all pseudo governmental goups like ACORN, NEA and PBS which are acting as agencies for the Democrats and Marxists controlling the Federal Government.

Amend the constitution to limit an annually balanced federal budget to 15% of GDP. Choke off the public money supply.</description>

If not, freedom is dead. And THAT will affect even those at the top of the food chain.

It boggles the mind to watch both sides play stupid games at the cost to 300 million lives. You would think that there are a few adults left on Capital Hill.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;We are asking investigators to examine federal grants, contracts and assistance
awarded to ACORN and its affiliates, to review whether ACORN and its affiliates have complied with our tax laws, and to determine whether an appropriate level of federal oversight was in place to begin with.”&lt;/blockquote&gt;

We don&#039;t need investigators to determine if ACORN is guilty of a whole host of criminal activities.  That&#039;s already been proved by 2 20-somethings posing as a pimp and a prostitutue.  ACORN and its associated organizations and the people steering $ to them are guilty as hell from stem to stern.  Everybody with a conscience and an IQ above room temperature knows it.

What we need the investigations for is to enact suitable punishment for every crapweasel involved.</description>

Bring it on indeed.

If we actually get some in-depth investigations, this should be fun.

Should be wrapping it up in time for next years mid term elections. Or once they start digging, it may take a couple of years to dig it all out.

Or they’ll be muzzled by the administration and “retired” any time they get close to something embarrassing to the White House.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Having it done before the mid-terms would be surprising. I suspect any reports would be held until after....or the &#039;Crats will scream.

On the plus side, with multiple IG&#039;s investigating, one would hope they would be concerned with what other IG&#039;s might find and investigate honestly and thoroughly.

I wonder though if any hint of criminality might be grabbed by Holder, yanked away from the IG and sat on with a sham JD investigation.</description>

		<description>My area of interest is the interaction via intermediaries between ACORN and the White House and the other parts of the Excutive Branch.  

If you dig, I&#039;ll bet my house you will find the coorperation.

MM has said it repeatedly.  &lt;em&gt;ACORN IS OBAMA AND OBAMA IS ACORN.&lt;/em&gt;</description>
