On Monday Nevada filed 39 felony criminal complaints against ACORN. On Thursday the House of Representatives voted to allow ACORN to receive federal funding under the “Mortgage Reform and Anti-Predatory Lending Act.”
The vote to make ACORN eligible for funding was 245-176. All Democrats on the side, all Republicans plus four honest Democrats on the other.
“There is no excuse this outrage. The only explanation for voting to give money to this racket is that House Democrats are deep in the pocket of ACORN,” said a statement from GetLiberty.org.
As a result of the House vote, ACORN is eligible for more than $3 billion in “stimulus” money plus another $5.5 billion from the 2010 budget. The organization has already received at least $53 million from American taxpayers since 1994.
ACORN has also been investigated for voter fraud in state after state – including Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, and Missouri, Pennsylvania, Washington, and Michigan.
39 felony counts? What’s the big deal? Who among us hasn’t been charged with 39 felony counts at one time or another?
