ACORN has had a good week

Recommended Posts

at least we agree on something - ACORN seems to have strayed a long way from their initial goals,

This is the way the system is supposed to work, and I am fine with them being out the government until they get their act in order.

Now if we only had more hidden video of the Christian Right Wing doing just-as-bad-things on the other side of the fence.

Maybe the GOP in S. Carolina could clean their house in the same way.



Nah, we'll keep it as is. Sanford, while he's lost his political clout is still better than the imbecile Lt. Gov. so we'll just handle that at the next election. Wilson isn't my district but if he moves I'll vote for him/

Absolutely. As soon as we can get those Christian Right Wingers out of the census, the better. I don't think they should be getting those billions of dollars in federal funding any more than you do.

Scroll down to the faith-based stuff. This is only one government department. Sadly, the Christian Right Wing is receiving billions in taxpayer dollars every year.



Yeah, it just SUCKS to have organizations:

•Strengthen the role of community organizations in the economic recovery and poverty reduction.
•Reduce unintended pregnancies and support maternal and child health.
•Promote responsible fatherhood and healthy families.
•Foster interfaith dialogue and collaboration with leaders and scholars around the world, and at home.

Correct. You are agreeing with me. Let me repeat what I said:

I don't think they should be getting those billions of dollars in federal funding any more than you do.


You may have thought I was being sarcastic. I was not. I am an atheist. I don't think that religious groups should receive government funding.

Well, yes. It does suck that they get my money to do that. I'm very happy to have them do it with their own funds. Why do they need to suck at the trough of taxpayer money that is our government?

This is different from any OTHER outreach program, how, other than tbrown's whining about the Christian Right?

Lets keep up the billions in federal "assistance", OK?



More ignorant right wing bullshit from old relaible.

ACORN is a much better organization than anything the righties have to offer.

Why do you hate the USA so much?

the question here is why do you hate the US so much that you would allow groups like Acorn to waste our money especially at a time when we as a country are broke?

ACORN is the current right wing bogeyman.

When you have educated yourself as to what ACORN actually is, and what they actually do, feel free to contribute from a position of knowlege. Right now, on the basis of what you wrote, you are contributing from a position of profound ignorance.

Go to the ACORN home page and start reading. When you come across something that is objectionable, let us know.

Tha bastards at ACORN help potential poor and minority voters to become registered voters. ACORN assists them in getting to the polling places and casting their ballots.

Clearly that is completely anti American activity that should be stopped right away. No organization should encourage and and assist people to participate in voting legally. That is pure evil...


Ignorance can be fixed through education.
It does take some effort, but it is worth it, in the long run.

Citing ACORN as a source for how great ACORN is would be like sitting down to talk to me about what kind of guy I am. When you hear something less than stellar.......
