		<description>Maybe the acronym should be &quot;ROTON&quot; (revolutionary organization trashing our nation&quot;)
Since when is it acceptable to give millions of tax dollars to a blatantly political (and corrupt) organization? 
We are teetering on the edge of the abyss of self-destruction, and Obama is in the process of pushing us over that edge.</description>

		<description>Also, these are Acorn people helping with this crazy far out request. Who seriously doubts that they probably would all help game the system / teach people how to lie for more minor crimes or infractions?</description>

		<description>Oh come on, why is everyone so surprised?  For literally decades the left (which ACORN definitely is) has ignored, explained away, condoned or even particpated in all sorts of horrible actions (Stalin&#039;s purges and famines, China&#039;s Cultural Revolution to name just a couple), provided that these advance the cause of socialism.

		<description>The_Gadfly,

&lt;i&gt;Actually, I could do that pretty much on the fly, but then I use to GM in my younger days.&lt;/i&gt;

But can you imagine if you tried to run a game set in a modern environment and had a scene in which your players could walk in off the street into and advocacy organization and get advice on running a child brothel? Your players would laugh you out of the room! 

Having a bunch of dwarves with battle axes pile out an SUV would be more credible.</description>

		<description>Re: &quot;I don’t know about you, but if someone ask me how to run a brothel using minors and how to funnel that money into the a political campaign, I would have to stop and think about it for while.&quot;

Actually, I could do that pretty much on the fly, but then I use to GM in my younger days. It is obvious after you assume the law is an unjustified impediment. Also I know it is how most strip clubs skirt zoning laws. They put in a request for an entertainment establishment, and only reveal it is a strip joint afterward. Same principle, different legal issue.

The difference is, I would only do that in a ROLL playing game, never in REAL life. Giving that sort of advice in REAL life gets people hurt, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Maybe even killed. Which is why in REAL life as opposed to a theoretical exercise the law is NOT an unjustified impediment.</description>

		<description>I am &lt;em&gt;almost&lt;/em&gt; at the point where I would bet cash money that the people and structure now known as ACORN will be operating for as long as the Democrats hold power, and perhaps even longer given how gormless and goolie-less the Republicans are.

To the Democrats, child prostitution, possible murder [see the tape released today], and any other crimes are justified by the undermining of the electoral system that ACORN has done.  More than a few commentators [outside the MSM which is doing its damnedest to pretend this is not happening] have picked up on the points note above that a) they treat setting up child brothels as routine, and b) what other crimes do they commit routinely?  

Knowing that, not only did 7 Senate Democrats [including both Senators from Illinois, Obama&#039;s state] vote to continue taxpayer funding of child prostitution, knowing that; a number of Republicans managed not to be there for the vote.  After all, they would not want to do anything to discommode their good friends on the other side of the aisle. 

The Senate vote is a scam.  For any funds cut off to take effect it also has to pass the House, conference committees, AND be signed by Obama.  That is NOT going to happen.  ACORN is too valuable as a government funded RICO to Democrats.

The very worst that will happen is that ACORN will have to change its name.  It already is registered as a corporation under &quot;Community Organizers International&quot;.  Same people, same mission, same corruption, different sign on the door; with the possible benefit to them that the Census has cut off ties with ACORN, but &lt;em&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; with COI.

The political and legal system that we learned from the civics books does not exist anymore; nor does the social contract that it reinforced.

		<description>&quot;...The House Judiciary Committee leader John Conyers, in June was going to investigate ACORN, but was shut down by ‘the powers that be’....&quot;

Speaking of &quot;coincidences,&quot; right before Conyers attempted to investigate ACORN, his wife Monica was convicted of bribery while on the Detroit City Council, the end of a career as a notoriously corrupt public official. You have to wonder what &quot;the powers that be&quot; told Conyers they would do for Monica if he dropped the investigation.</description>

		<description>ACORN is really disgusting and I can&#039;t believe that there isn&#039;t a bigger out cry over their criminal evils.  I know the Senate voted to not renew their funding but where is the outrage and why isn&#039;t our President calling for an investigation, why haven&#039;t they been shut down?</description>

		<description>Let&#039;s not forget all the vote fraud cases involving ACORN that keep popping up around the country. ACORN is an abomination (Obama-nation...heh) that must be completely and hopefully shut down.</description>

		<description>The community organizer in chief understands the non-profit status.  He understands how Acorn works.  He understands how the empire is a web of shadows, all to obfuscate the truth.  And the SCIA is right there on his hip as well.  No less corrupt.  No less enslaving its members for the sake of the empire.  So after ACORN goes down, there are several orgs (non-profits included) that are next.  That should be the &quot;transformation of the country&quot; that dear leader speaks of that should happen.</description>

		<description>Michael Schrage! Good to see you here.

One reason to focus on Acorn and similar organizations is because too often, anything called &quot;nonprofit&quot; is assumed by many to be morally superior. This is far from true.</description>

		<description>While the true nature of ACORN is finally coming to light, let&#039;s look at the common offices for all of the ACORN-related entities. We all know ACORN was a large part of the drive for the get out the vote project.  By law they are not to be affiliated or promoting any political party.  So the fraudulent voter drive (all pro-Dem and pro-Obama) not only should land them in voter fraud hot water (which it has) but should have stripped them their tax exempt status.  Add the $872K paid by the Obama campaign for &quot;lighting&quot; and other BS, they blatantly bought ACORN support.  But because of the multiple sister organizations, the money from one goes into the same house as all the rest, it just an accounting jungle.  They all have the same people serving on the boards and as officers.  The House Judiciary Committee leader John Conyers, in June was going to investigate ACORN, but was shut down by &#039;the powers that be&#039;.  

Yes the left, and particularly the power brokers in Washington will continue to cover this up, look the other way, and see this as noise.  

(BTW: - The noise has caused the census bureau to fire ACORN, and the senate has voted to strip ACORN of funding, so the noise is reaching a deafening level.  The WH and Pelosi and company will not be able to hold off an investigation much longer!)</description>

		<description>&quot;How bad do things have to become within a leftist organization before the rest of the left says, “Enough! You are no longer part of us!”&quot;

I know, maybe a sitting president could repeatedly blow his semen all over a 21-year old subordinate employee in the workplace. THEN they might stop saying he&#039;s the greatest politician who ever lived and.....

Oh, wait.</description>

		<description>Maurice, 

&lt;i&gt;This is just the tip of the iceberg w/ Acorn. They’re basically a criminal organization w/ an advocacy front.&lt;/i&gt;

There is certainly precedent for that. The original Black Panthers were just a street gang that figured out they could prevent the cops from investigating them if they pretended to be a revolutionary group. It worked brilliantly and after a while they really began to believe they were revolutionaries. The cops would touch them with a ten foot pole. David Horowitz&#039;s experiences with the Black Panthers and their murder of his friend drove him from being communist to the rightwing. 

It was also standard for the old big city machines to integrated with corrupt unions and the mobs. I think a lot of that attitude has bled over into modern organizations in the same regions.</description>
