ACORN to help collect census data in 2010

[GeoFisher]

This group should not be allowed to EXIST, let alone collect any data.

The census bureau is supposed to be non political, but I guess, this is a good example of Transparency that Obama is talking about.

Heck this is the way the Weirdo Nancy Pelosi can save her seat and the other Dems that will be up for re-election or running for election...

I was just digging up some old bones I haven't read in a while and came across this thread. I heard a news report this week that says ACORN will be investigated for their role in the election. It seems they had people voting multiple times, did some unscrupulous arm twisting to raise money for the Obama campaign, and received the list of contributors to the Obama campaign before investigators did. The list of top contributors was released to ACORN first and then to investigators. The Obama camp refused to release the list of small contributors (those contributing $100 or less) to those same investigators but did release it to ACORN. Now there are some mad Senators who think that Obama may not have won the election in a fair manner. It's notable that people like Louis Farakahn, Jesse Jackson, and the black motor-mouth who ran for president, are supporting ACORN. John McCain had no problem releasing his list of top contributors; he also released his list of small contributors without being asked for it.

If they do the census, we can all rest assured that the census numbers will, among other things, screw up racial and ethnic ratios in order to pour money into undeserving projects and neighborhoods.

How did this radical group not come to the attention of the FBI and other agencies before now? The scary "what if" is what if ACORN had been, or is, a hidden terrorist group and our government has ignored them like this? jmo

I lost all faith in the Election process years ago. Forget about someone being proved wrong or getting caught because the Libs control too much of the system. I pray that another party figures out how to cheat, lie and steal as well as the Libs do so they can balance the lopsided way our country is being led. Of course they have to control the media straight from jump street.
I wish Bill Clinton would come on over with his wife and then we will have the masters of deception on the Conservative or Independant side!
Game over...

I figure if you aren't smart enough to figure out how to keep from getting your chad pregnant then you shoulnd't be allowed to vote.

When I voted last year I went in after an old fella (80-90 I guess he was moving slow for sure) anyway I get in there and the screen doesn't look right so I get an attendant to check it out before I start. She found that he never actually confirmed his vote and walked out thinking he did. She hit the appropriate button and then it was my turn.

I often wonder how many people who are technically challenged by age, ability or just plain stupid get their vote wrong.

I said it before.....you can't fix stupid! (well I'm wrong I guess we can it just takes 4 years of pain!)
