Right, but lets keep hoping acorn continues to be a self policing organization.

Quote:
The arrests are ``further evidence we've been policing our own folks and report people attempting to commit voter registration fraud,'' said ACORN spokesman Brian Kettenring. ``This was really some individuals who were trying to defraud their employer.''

``We've been very aggressive about a lot of these cases,'' she said. ``But we would not have known about these workers unless ACORN brought it to us.
Taken from your first article. Sounds like acorn as an organization in regards to voter fraud at least are against it. But whatever i can't change what you want to believe.

You prove ACORN is receiving federal funds and I think everyone will agree that they should be audited, reviewed, turned inside-out and upside-down and shaken until all the dirt falls out.

I don't understand why they recommended "Performing Arts" when there are already shit loads of "Escort Services" in the damn Yellow Pages! Don't reinvent the wheel here, people.

Just caught a blurb that the US Census Bureau is cutting ties with Acorn who I guess it was paying to do the census.

Fuck the whole prositution issue. That woman giving tax "advice" is telling them to do illegal and very grey things. I can not believe this actually happened lol.

Wait wait wait, there was obviously unfair journalistic tactic going on here. ACORN has finally cleared the air...

Big Government » Blog Archive » Official Statement From ACORN Housing President Alton Bennett, Executive Director Mike Shea

Yes, it took them a whole 7 tries to find two offices that would facilitate and assist them in their illegal operations. How can we hold a mere 29% of ACORN offices against the whole organization? That's NOT EVEN A THIRD?!?

As a clarification for the person who told me to.. and I quote here... "LRN2STATISTICS"...

As per Central AHC Offices counting the offices listed on the side, this means that 2 of 30 offices assisted in the illegal activities. That is 1 in 15. So assuming that every other office of ACORN housing is clean (as they were looking into home purchase this was ACORN housing we're talking about here) that means it's still 6 and two thirds a percent of their offices. And I think that assuming that no other office in ACORN's housing department would have assisted is giving far too much benefit of the doubt.

If a bank had 30 branches and two were caught denying loans to people based on race what would happen to the bank as a whole?
