Why is this joker talking about ACORN?
Seriously, I am listening and I have no idea of the relevance to this stimulus bill.

Just flame for the fire for the crazies on the right. Ugh.

1. I don't know. He looks dumb as shit.
It's not a big surprise. At least one exists in every legislative body.

3. I had to turn him off. What an ass hole. He's still spouting off
pre-election talking points. Now, Acorn caused the economic crisis and through fake registrations got Obama elected and he's trying to pay them back :grr:

At this point, he needs his ass thoroughly kicked. Fucking klan member, plain and simple.

4. Vitter doesn't want any of the economic
recovery money to go to ACORN.

5. Because he has to stimulate the racist assholes who will most likely vote for him
in 2010. Hopefully his reelection will be a three ring circus.

6. neighborhood = ACORN...local = ACORN
In the Republican Thesaurus, thousands of everyday words have "evil" meanings to them..

8. ACORN helps register poor people and black people to vote
Edited on Fri Feb-06-09 03:38 PM by Juche
Poor people and black people tend to vote democratic, and the last thing the GOP wants is a few million more angry voters in swing states who know they're getting screwed. There is a part of the stimulus that calls for about $5 billion in community investment, and there is speculation ACORN will get some of the money (the GOP still thinks ACORN stole the 2008 election). They are afraid ACORN will register a few million more voters, putting the GOP even further into the minority. ACORN registered 1.3 million voters in 2008 including about 250k in Ohio, 250k in the southwest (Colorada, NM, NV, AZ), 150k in Pennsylvania, 150k in Florida, etc. After the GOP started attacking ACORN I donated at least $50 to their voter registration drives. Go ACORN. They are fighting to help people who are disadvantaged improve their lot in life.

PS I love the GOP outreach to minorities. Blame the economic crisis on the concept that ACORN forced banks to make loans to blacks and latinos, who then defaulted and now white taxpayers have to bail out the irresponsibility of blacks and latinos (that is the GOP philosophy on why this economic collapse happened) on one hand, then put up a puppet like Steele with the other.

9. You answered your own question
Because he's a joker and he hasn't got shit else to say. Plus, he probably doesn't like poor and urban people actually voting, which is what ACORN tries to do.
