Why do right wingers make up stories about ACORN?

Isn't this a Fake Issue started by FOX ';News'; to feed to stupid, terrified right wingers? Isn't this a story to cover up Republican voter fraud?





Both parties have contributed to and supported ACORN in the past. So it's amusing to see the political right so dedicated to this particular Karl Rove lie.Why do right wingers make up stories about ACORN?
Agreed. It was ACORN that notified the election official about the registration fraud. ;))Why do right wingers make up stories about ACORN?
This is a perfect example of somebody telling a lie and then a bunch of people swearing to it! Rove has started a few rumors, and so has Cheney, and Republicans jump on them as though they are from the scriptures! Then, they spread the rumors like wildfire and gullible idiots believe them. It's just the Republican way and seems to be a part of their platform!
Just Google Acorn voting scandal and you will see many sources other than fox and you will also read about many criminal investigations against Acorn that lead all the way to the White House also. How can you deny all this press coverage? Is it because is shows Obama and his Liberal Party in a bad light? I am amazed at the lengths you Democrats will go to hide the truth.
They learn it from Glenn Beck, a recovering alcoholic and his family has a history of mental illness.





He believes its a satanic organization that is going to take over America, and that they commit voted fraud. Even if they did popular vote doesn't matter electoral do.
Well cnn had caught them in voter fraud.
name one lie or finish cleaning your room before your mom yells at you again, just because its summer time doesn't mean you can slack off on your chores
You're nuts. The evidenceagainst ACORN is very solid.





You should move to Cuba.
They will hang onto whatever they can.


It is the sign of an ending control of people via fear.
You must be and ACORN employee. The place stinks with fraud in many states....its systemic and that is not an accident.
They couldn't dig up any dirt on this man, so they tried to associate him to ACORN

WHAT STORIES IT IS THE TRUTH
How Rotten


Is ACORN?


Learn the Truth














According to the law, registered voters must sign, print their name and list their address on petitions calling for a ballot initiative. It doesn't take a handwriting expert to see that many of these were filled out by the same person.





ACORN Is A Bad Seed


Something’s rotten in the state of New Mexico, and Ohio, and Michigan, and Pennsylvania, and Florida, and…





ACORN calls itself a community group, but it is really a multi-million-dollar, multi-national conglomerate. Its political agenda is driven by a relative handful of political thugs for hire. ACORN spends millions promoting economic policies (like raising the minimum wage), but doesn't always want to abide by them.





In fact, ACORN sued the state of California to get out of paying its own employees the minimum wage, and even fought their efforts to create a union.





Before “subprime” became a household word, ACORN waded into the mortgage market, supporting policies that helped lay the groundwork for the catastrophic lending collapse of 2008. Working with another activist group, the Center for Responsible Lending, ACORN lobbied legislators and banks to ensure that any person, regardless of credit history, income, or assets, would qualify for a mortgage. They mastered the art of pressuring banks – often through radical and controversial methods – to provide subprime loans to all comers. It was many of these “toxic” loans that defaulted and sparked the subprime mortgage crisis.





ACORN's influence extends to the political sphere as well. The group is perhaps best known for its widely-reported role in voter fraud across the country.





During the last two election cycles, it was under investigation for election fraud and related offenses in nearly 20 states. Want examples?





ACORN returned to the national spotlight during the 2008 election when its employees turned in fraudulent voter registration files, including listing the Dallas Cowboys’ starting lineup as voters in Nevada. This blatant attempt at fraud led authorities to raid ACORN’s offices in the state. Not to be outdone, ACORN canvassers in Florida actually attempted to turn in forms registering Mickey Mouse as a voter. And ACORN managed to register a seven-year old girl to vote in Connecticut. The list goes on.





Nation-wide investigations into ACORN’s role in voter fraud have yielded dozens of indictments. Nevada recently charged ACORN with 26 counts of voter registration fraud and 13 counts of illegally compensating canvassers. In Pennsylvania, seven Pittsburgh-area ACORN employees were charged with falsifying voter registration forms. Six of them were accused of doing so to meet an illegal quota system.





Considering the number of voter fraud incidents still under investigation, expect more charges in the coming months.





Now ACORN is lobbying to get more of your hard earned tax dollars to fund their fraud.





It’s time to send a message to ACORN and the government that is funding them. It’s time to end the corruption.
Because!!!
