ACORN Fraud and Obama

Does it make your blood boil to know that ACORN has gotten tax money so it can subvert the American system?

How about this story, that all of ACORN's registrations in Lake County, Indiana, were fraudulent? ALL of them?

And what about Obama's campaign giving ACORN $800,000, and initially lying about it to the FEC?

Do you like this video of Obama saying that he will let ACORN and groups like it "shape his agenda"?

Obama was ACORN's lawyer, a trainer for them, and a big supporter. He's been funneling money to them, making promises. And now that this is finally starting to get some media coverage, guess what? He's throwing them under the bus, just like he did Rev. Wright and Bill Ayers.

But all this goes far beyond just an indictment of Obama's poor judgment and dishonesty. It threatens to undermine our system. It threatens to undo the confidence we have in our elections, the knowledge they are fair and honest, and that no matter what happens, there will be a peaceful and orderly transfer of power.

Will it continue? I'm not alone in worrying. The Anchoress:

The ACORN disgrace is not being “covered” right now. It’s being “spun.” The press - whose charge it is to report on events without prejudice - cannot bring itself to seriously look at the fact that ACORN has utterly corrupted voter registration in some states - in Pennsylvania, a former State Supreme Court Justice says she is “not confident we can get a fair election” in the state come November.”

I don’t know about you, but I find that pretty chilling. There is some indication that we’ve come to an end of our long and admirable history of peaceful transitions, decided by the electorate of the nation. What is happening, state-by-state in this election (and has been happening more and more each election cycle) is the gradual dissolution that right which we hold most dear: our right to self-determination. And it is happening, “from the inside,” as we see in Ohio, which - as I write this - has just received permission from the sixth circuit court of appeals to make voter fraud easier, instead of more difficult. There goes Ohio. [emphasis mine]
