ACORN – CSI – OBAMA. Someone else noticed!

For a candidate who claims to be practicing ‘new’ politics, his FEC reports look an awful lot like the ‘old-style’ Chicago politics of yesterday. – RNC statement, 8/21/08.

It appears that Internet based information sites are not the only venues who have been tracking the goings on between Obama, CSI and ACORN. Recently the New York Times reported a mild suggestion of conspiracy between ACORN staff, employees of CCI (Citizens Consulting, Inc. – yet another 1024 resident) and Tides Foundation, to not talk about the Rathke ACORN embezzlement affair. It was spotted in the
Pittsburgh Tribune Review
Wednesday in an Op-Ed titled: “Tides of ‘transparency’”, and subtitled appropriately: “keep your yaps shut.” Quotes the editorial:

“..is quite an irony for a bunch of leftists who have been known to yap at others for their lack of transparency.”

In today’s issue of the Tribune-Review there is a headline:

GOP:     CAMPAIGN TRIED TO HIDE TIES WITH ACORN
Obama to mend spending report

U.S. Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign paid more than $800,000 to an offshoot of the liberal Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now for services the Democrat’s campaign says it mistakenly misrepresented in federal reports.

I have to admit, that as the research was being compiled for yesterday’s questions on this subject, I thought that these “infractions” were so glaring that someone else, this time someone in the MSM, had to have also seen them.

This questionable Obama behavior was spotted by a reporter with a powerful Rolodex - the type found only in major press rooms. The reporter interviewed Jeff Robinson of CSI, the Obama campaign, the RNC and the then Obama campaign again, after the RNC. Numerous quotes from other entities, such as the FEC and watchdog groups are included. It is a must read today.

The reporter, David M. Brown, was quite generous in his fair treatment of this subject, but one of the people he interviewed was not so gentle. In the article the RNC says:

“Barack Obama’s failure to accurately report his campaign’s financial records is an incredibly suspicious situation that appears to be an attempt to hide his campaign’s interaction with a left-wing organization previously convicted of voter fraud. For a candidate who claims to be practicing ‘new’ politics, his FEC reports look an awful lot like the ‘old-style’ Chicago politics of yesterday.”

Then, after reading this statement from the story, I have to agree with the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics spokesperson who said this:

“It’s rare that people don’t file any amended reports.“

But I also agree with this, from the same source:

“If he has a pattern of lots and lots of amended reports, that would be more noteworthy than an occasional one.”

In my opinion, you can’t accidentally type STAGE, LIGHTING AND SOUND when the bill from your vendor obviously says”Get-Out-The-Vote Organizing.” And then, on ten additional, separate occasions, make the same type of mistake on separate forms, followed by ADVANCE WORK entered when the bill says Get-Out-The-Vote Organizing or POLLINING when the bill says Get-Out-The-Vote Organizing. This, in my opinion, is noteworthy because it sounds like a pattern of lots and lots of amendments to the FEC reports.

Item C, above, is the one that set bells off for most people reviewing the FEC reports. Click the image to see it full screen.

Continued analysis will be done on these, and future reports and an FEC complaint is becoming more likely as you read this.

So, this is the house that ACORN built. Does Obama have a room?
The House Obama Built

An Obama spokesman said Federal Election Commission reports would be amended to show Citizens Services Inc. — a subsidiary of ACORN — worked in “get-out-the-vote” projects, instead of activities such as polling, advance work and staging major events as stated in FEC finance reports filed during the primary.

The Obama campaign can amend their reports all they want. But, had observers not discovered this obfuscation, then the lies would have continued to the end of the campaign, as they sprayed tens of millions of innocent donor dollars through various groups to fund the ACORN-Obama grass-roots campaign, under the radar of the press and public.

It does not matter so much who or how many may claim to have been “blind” to these activities. It is my opinion that the Obama campaign knew they were misleading the public and that they have no intention of offering transparency unless pressed and challenged. And I challenge all seekers of justice to continue to challenge him every day.

The plot thickens.

Comment by Tony Stark | 2008-08-22 01:22:56

Reading FEC spokeswoman Mary Brandenberger’s comments, it doesn’t sound like they are that concerned. It may require a formal complaint to get the FEC to investigate.

Comment by Clinton Fan | 2008-08-22 04:11:23

The FEC CANNOT investigate. They haven’t sufficient people to DO the investigating, and right now, we’re at a bit of a standoff.

They are shy, due to people leaving, sufficent members for a quorum. Without the quorum, nothing happens. No meetings, no investigations, no NADA. It’s a great “no work” job for the few who remain, though.

McCain has some questionable donations, or amounts, or something like that, due to his taking public financing…and Obama has some VERY questionable donations, questionable amounts and NOW THIS bullshit.

Bush isn’t going to nominate, nor Congress approve, any new people to go to that commission. There’s too much dirt on both sides, and if they choose to investigate one before the other, people will whine.

The only “investigation” will be journalistic, for now…which is an iffy proposition on a good day.

Comment by fif | 2008-08-22 08:21:42

So then basically, there are no regulations at all?

“The Obama campaign can amend their reports all they want.”

If they can just continue to “amend” their “mistaken” reports whenever they get caught doing something (like the 3 brothers donating from Ghaza), then it is a free for all. How nice for them.

Thank you for following up on this–at least someone is paying attention.

And again, for all you lurking Obots: IT’S THE HYPOCRISY of this candidate that is seemingly unlimited.

Obama Camp Has Many Ties to Wife’s Employer

By Joe Stephens
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, August 22, 2008; A01

A few years ago, executives at the prestigious University of Chicago Medical Center were concerned that an increasing number of patients were arriving at their emergency room with what the executives considered to be non-urgent complaints. The visits were costly to the hospital, and many of the patients, coming from the surrounding South Side neighborhood, were poor and uninsured.

Michelle Obama, an executive at the medical center, launched an innovative program to steer the patients to existing neighborhood clinics to deal with their health needs.

That effort, in time, inspired a broader program the hospital now calls its Urban Health Initiative. To ensure community support, Michelle Obama and others in late 2006 recommended that the hospital hire the firm of David Axelrod, who a few months later became the chief strategist for Barack Obama’s presidential campaign.

Axelrod’s firm recommended an aggressive promotional effort modeled on a political campaign — appoint a campaign manager, conduct focus groups, target messages to specific constituencies, then recruit religious leaders and other third-party “validators.” They, in turn, would write and submit opinion pieces to Chicago publications.

One key recommendation from Axelrod’s firm: “Respond quickly to opposition activity.”

Comment by Isolde | 2008-08-22 07:27:28

Yeah the “opposition activity” was from the poor and area doctors who that knew the clinics were understaffed and underfunded. This is good old patient dumping. This is the kind of stuff that for profit corporate hospitals do. This is how Michelle makes her living. Is it any wonder that O is not for universal coverage?

Contracts Went to a Longtime Donor

By Joe Stephens
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, August 22, 2008; A04

Two years ago, the office of Michelle Obama, the vice president for community relations at the University of Chicago Medical Center, published a glossy report detailing the improvements her office had made in the lives of local residents, in part by increasing ties to minority contractors.
Center administrators declined to disclose which businesses benefited; the report lists one — Blackwell Consulting Services.

In 2005, the center expanded its bidding process and invited African American businessman Robert Blackwell Sr. to join a competition to upgrade the center’s intranet, the in-house equivalent of a Web site. His company, Blackwell Consulting, won contracts totaling nearly $650,000.

Blackwell and his family, records show, have been longtime donors to the political campaigns of Michelle Obama’s husband, Barack. Robert Blackwell Jr., a former partner in the firm, is a major fundraiser for Barack Obama. At various times, Blackwell Sr. says, his and his son’s businesses each have retained Barack Obama as an attorney.

“I love Barack. I’m telling you, he’s a wonderful guy,” Blackwell said in an interview.
A spokeswoman for the medical center, Kelly Sullivan, said Michelle Obama “was not involved in the selection process.”

I hope this doesn’t go away. I’d also like to see some investigating done on his $400 million in campaign contributions. Don’t tell me those high school and college kids have that kind of money to donate to political campaigns.

Comment by Ellen D | 2008-08-22 09:42:09

I’ve always been suspicious of that. It must be wonderful to be able to operate with no fear of audit by anyone and no consequences whatsoever.
What is that suggesting to the business community? The IRS and all the states are going to feel the effects of such visible flaunting of the financial rules by campaign ENRONs.
As a financial professional I am always fighting to explain why you cannot break the rules. There are consequences - at least I sure hope there are.
Otherwise the US has become a Banana Republic.

 
 

Comment by TeakwoodKite | 2008-08-22 01:18:07

The December 2003 Pittsburgh Tribune reports details of the relationship between the Tides Center and Pelosi, who received a $5,000 donation contribution from the center and deposited it into an account for a political action committee she formed in 2002 called Team Majority to fund candidates running for office. Pelosi was fined $21,000 by the FEC for accepting donations over federal limits and paid the fine in October of 2003.

According to the Pittsburgh Tribune, the FEC declined to comment on the matter but confirmed the case remains open. Violations concerning charitable foundations can also be reported to the California Franchise Tax Board .

Meanwhile, the sound of scratching on the door is coming from the skeletons in Nancy Pelosi’s closet.

Pelosi deserves to be investigated and a new person elected to her position.

If that means I have to vote for McCain then so be it, I’m sure at least with him I KNOW what I’m getting, even though I’m a Democrat.

Personally I don’t care if I see any pro or McCain posts, it sure beats the nonsense and lies from the Obambibots, lol.

I checked the Philly docket sheet on PACER and found two suits filed against Obama, but they were from a previous date.

I then ran the case # and Plaintiff’s name.

The one allegedly filed Thursday has not been scanned and posted.

Comment by JML | 2008-08-22 02:22:30

According to a conversation I had with an attorney this week — not about the Obama cases, mind you — many courthouses deal with case paperwork the next business day after filing.

So it’s possible the case could have been filed yesterday.

I have a feeling that when the truth does come out about Obama and his campaign it will be bigger than Watergate ever was.
Trust me guys it might not come out in time to stop this appalling democratic election charade, but it eventually will.
Its a shame that the many of the major media people and stations are not investigating and reporting this election as it should be.
For when all the corruption does hit the fan its going to be a real mess.

Comment by Shane | 2008-08-22 02:36:14

These are the kind of feelings that made you kooks believe in the Whitey tape, the birth certificate debacle and whatever the Hell else you’ll almost find out to prevent Obama from becoming president. Good luck with that.

Comment by AnnieCarmel | 2008-08-22 02:56:56

So far, we’re doing well. Thanks for the sentiment though. There’s enough material on Obama to keep people busy for a long time. People running for public office really don’t have the number of secrets Obama has without a major problem being behind it. We’ll never trust him.

The trouble with the DNC is they thought because Bush was so hated, they could throw anyone against the wall and he’d stick. The power brokers want to push out the Clintons alright. Only problem with that is they are the most intelligent and successful of Democrats and the DNC still hasn’t gotten that we’re gone for good because of their incredible thievery of the primary. Most of us would much rather have any Clinton instead of the Dean/Pelosi/Brazile cabal. But then, you already know that so go along now and don’t bother the grown ups again.

Comment by JoseyJ | 2008-08-22 06:07:43

All summer, Hillary supporters have speculated that no matter how much or how vigorously the Clintons campaigned for Obama - the media and Obamabots would find fault.

Comment by lusitania | 2008-08-22 15:05:34

” In her speech, Mrs. Clinton, of New York, offered an unequivocal endorsement. She repeatedly linked her signature issues of health care, the economy and abortion to Mr. Obama. Emphasizing how a President Obama could further her agenda in the Senate, she said, “I need a president who will work with me, who will be there for the people I care about, that I get up and fight for every single day.” ”

They have no business criticizing her. The quote above proves the point that she is doing well enough for him. What more do they want and how dare they suggest that she is not doing enough. What about how much he has done for her. Has he really tried to help her reduce her debt. No, not at all. In one of their first appearances together he conveniently “forgot” to make a pitch for her, and when he did it was extremely tepid.
Shame on him. I hope he gets everything he deserves and then some.

Hillary’s words quoted above did get me to thinking though that without a Democratic president she may have a very hard time being effective when it comes to her agenda. Still, even keeping that in mind there is absolutely no way that I can vote for this unqualified candidate (which puts it too nicely). I am now committing to actually campaign at least a little bit for John McCain if that is what it is going to take to keep this guy away from the White House.

I just hope and pray that she does not become the democrats vice presidential nominee because I still will not be able to vote for the ticket.

Hillary in ‘08 or McCain it will be. Country before Party. Always.

Who is the idiot who started this new type of politician Obama was supposed to be? I concur, Obama is an old style sleazy Chicago politician. I cannot recall anyone who ever ran for president that carried the sleaze and lies Obama has. So what is the change? Greater sleaze and ineptitude? Pathetic.

Voters donated money, goods and services to elect a nominee and were defrauded by Sen. Obama’s lies and obfuscations,” Berg stated. “If the DNC officers … had performed one ounce of due diligence we would not find ourselves in this emergency predicament, one week away from making a person the nominee who has lost their citizenship as a child and failed to even perform the basic steps of regaining citizenship as prescribed by constitutional laws.”

“It is unfair to the country,” he continued, “for candidates of either party to become the nominee when there is any question of the ability to serve if elected.”

All these groups are incestuous-They move around a lot of money:

Because it operates a virtual self-contained economy,ACORN entities exchange millions of dollars every year for goods and services. The scant financial documents available for public inspection paint a picture of a spider web of ACORN-run organizations that trade loans, leases, payments, and grants.

While few financial transactions are available, the
following offer a glimpse of the money that flows
back and forth from one account to another at ACORN’s headquarters.

ACORN paid Citizens Consulting, Inc.—which is run by Rathke’s brother—$520,000 for lobbying between 1998 and 2004.

Department of Labor financial disclosures show at least $623,829 in transactions between ACORN’s SEIU locals 100 and 880 and other Rathke/ACORN-run operations.

From 2000 through 2003 Project Vote paid more than $1.7 million to ACORN and Citizens
Consulting.

Between 1997 and 2003, the Mutual Housing Association of New York paid more than $2.1 million in contractual fees to the New York ACORN Housing
Association.

Mott Haven ACORN Housing Development Fund Corporation paid more than $233,360 in contractual fees to the New York ACORN Housing Company. At the same time, Mott Haven owed as much as $435,000 to the
Mutual Housing Association of New York.

The Association for Rights of Citizens, which carries Rathke brother Wade and relative Cornelia
Rathke on its board of directors, has loaned tens of thousands of dollars to Rathke’s SEIU Local 100, ACORN’s Missouri Tax Justice Research Project, and
ACORN, and has made grants totalling tens of thousands of dollars to ACORN.

ACORN’s Agape Broadcasting Foundation showed notes and loans receivable of more than $100,000 from other ACORN-affiliate entities.

ACORN’S Affiliated Media Foundation Movement showed notes and loans receivable of nearly $250,000 from
other ACORN entities, while also showing notes and loans payable of more than $1.1 million to ACORN and its Institute for Social Justice.

Tax forms show that since 1997, the ACORN Housing Corporation has paid more than $5,100,000 in fees or grants to other ACORN entities.

Is this how they are paying people off Chicago style? Is this why fund raising is the number one goal of this campaign? Is this why at any given time the campaign cash on hand is not that great? Is this why they do not want any outside Democratic groups raising money so it is all theirs to dole out?

Comment by fif | 2008-08-22 08:40:08

Just look at Rezko: He fueled BO’s campaigns, and received lucrative government contracts in return, but neglected to actually take care of the public/private low-income buildings that he developed IN BO’S DISTRICT! They took very good care of each other, including helping him buy his mansion, but the people in his district were living with rats and no electricity. This is NOT the change we’ve been waiting for.

When you couple the Acorn, A. Corn, Corn A fiasco with this story…you begin to wonder…

August 14, 2008
Obama’s Foreign Donors: The media averts its eyes
By Pamela Geller

I have been researching, documenting and studying thousands upon thousands of Obama’s campaign donations for the past month. Egregious abuse was immediately evident and I published the results of my ongoing investigation. Each subsequent post built a more damning case against Obama’s illegal contribution activity.

The media took little notice of what I was substantiating. I went so far as to upload the documents so that anyone could do their own research. I asked readers to download the documents and a number of folks pitched in.

Despite dropping the groundbreaking bombshell story of “Palestinian” brothers from the Rafah refugee camp in Gaza who donated $33,000 to Obama’s campaign, no big media picked up the story. Jihadis donating to Obama from Gaza? Could there be a bigger story? Foreign donations are illegal, but this story was all that and so much more. The “Palestinian” brothers were proud and vocal of their “love” for Obama. Their vocal support on behalf of “Palestinians” spoke volumes to Obama’s campaign.

And yet still no media.

But Obama pricked up his ears. He smelled trouble and while no media asked, he answered anyway. Sen. Obama’s campaign immediately scrambled and contended they had returned the $33,500 in illegal contributions from Palestinians in Hamas-controlled Gaza, despite the fact that records do not show that it was returned and the brothers said they have not received any money. Having gone through all of Obama’s refunds redesignations etc, no refund was made to Osama, Hossam, or Edwan Monir in the Rafah refugee camp. And still no media.

One of the Gazan brothers, Monir Edwan (identified here), claimed he bought “Obama for President” T-shirts off Obama’s website and then sold the T-shirts in Gaza for a profit. All purchases on the Barack Obama website are considered contributions.

The Palestinians allegedly claimed “they were American citizens”, so said Obama’s people. They listed their address — zip code 972 (ironically the area code for Israel) and they input “GA”the state abbreviation for Georgia (screen shot here) They actually lived in a Hamas controlled refugee camp. So if Obama’s people thought it was “Georgia” why did they ship the tee shirts to the correct address in Gaza? Shipping overseas to a Gaza refugee camp is vastly different than the state next door.

Still no media.

“Some young men even bought the T-shirts for 60 shekel ($17.29), which is a lot to spend in Gaza on a T-shirt, but that is how much Gazans like Obama,” Edwan claimed in a follow up article in the conservative websiet WorldNetDaily. And Hamas has publicly endorsed Obama.

And still no media.

Obama’s campaign said the Palestinian brothers in the Middle East made $33,000 in illegal donations to the campaign via the internet.

The donations came in between Sept. 20 and Dec. 6 and virtually all of the money, about $33,500, was returned by December 6. But the refunds weren’t reported to the Federal Election Commission due to a technical error, campaign officials said.

If McCain had been involved with something so dark and nefarious, taking money from Islamic jihad, his candidacy would never withstand the media blowback.

But it was the son of hope, the agent of change, the one we have been waiting for , so the media yawned.

The jihad donations were hardly the only bloody red flags. The first in my series of posts ran July 19th. The documents were so unwieldy, readers like John, Doc, and Cathy (who discovered Rafah) were working furiously to cross check our findings at the FEC site and then mine the data.

Obama’s overseas (foreign) contributors are making multiple small donations, ostensibly in their own names, over a period of a few days, some under maximum donation allowances, but others are aggregating in excess of the maximums when all added up. The countries and major cities from which contributions have been received France, Virgin Islands, Planegg, Vienna, Hague, Madrid, London, AE, IR, Geneva,Tokyo, Bangkok, Turin, Paris, Munich, Madrid, Roma, Zurich, Netherlands, Moscow, Ireland, Milan, Singapore, Bejing, Switzerland, Toronto, Vancouver, La Creche, Pak Chong, Dublin, Panama, Krabi, Berlin, Geneva, Buenos Aires, Prague, Nagoya, Budapest, Barcelona, Sweden, Taipei, Hong Kong, Rio de Janeiro, Sydney, Zurich, Ragusa, Amsterdam, Hamburg, Uganda, Mumbia, Nagoya, Tunis, Zacatecas, St, Croix, Mississauga, Laval, Nadi, Behchoko, Ragusa, DUBIA, Lima, Copenhagen, Quaama, Jeddah, Kabul, Cairo, Nassau(not the county on Long Island,lol), Luxembourg (Auchi’s stomping grounds), etc,etc,etc,

Half a million dollars had been donated from overseas by unidentified people “not employed”.

Digging deeper, all sorts of very bizarre activity jumped at us. Dr and JJ continued to break it down and pull data from various sources. We found Rebecca Kurth contributed $3,137.38 to the Obama Campaign in 112 donations, including 34 separate donations recorded in one day,

How about this gibberish donor on the 30th of April in 2008.

A donor named Hbkjb, jkbkj

City: Jkbjnj Works for: Kuman Bank (doesn’t exist)

Occupation: Balanon Jalalan Amount: $1,077.23

or the donor Doodad, The # of transactions = 1,044

The $ contributed = $10,780.00

This Doodad character works for FDGFDGF and occupation is DFGFDG

The more questions we answered the more questions we discovered.

Thousands of Obama’s foreign donations ended in cents. The “cents” did not make sense. And we compared McCain donation documentss to Obama’s. McCain’s records are nothing like Obama’s. McCain’s are so clean. No cents, all even dollar amounts. But Obama’s contained thousands of strange, odd amounts — evidence of foreign contributors, since Americans living overseas would almost uniformly be able to contribute dollars. Still no media.

Julia Gorin told me a funny story two months ago. Her husband’s co-worker wanted to see what would happen if he tried giving a contribution to the Obama campaign via a credit card. He used his Macy’s card. The system accepted it. He tried the same with McCain’s campaign, and the transaction wouldn’t go through. Now, obviously, down the line, the Obama transaction would fail as well, but it goes to the point that there is no safety system in place — it’ll just accept any and all money, which helps explain how his campaign raised so much more money than everyone else’s.

Despite the evidence of dirty campaign donations, crickets chirped in newsrooms across the country. The moment my Gaza story started to get some chatter on talk radio, the left and their supplicant handmaidens in the media sprang into action and created a McCain illegal campaign contribution “scandal”. The Washington Post published an inaccurate allegation and then retracted not a day later, at the risk of looking stupid. They are jeopardizing the little credibility that they have left.

MCCAIN, CRIST OFFICES RECEIVE THREAT LETTERS WITH POWDER

CENTENNIAL, Colorado — A threatening letter containing an unidentified white powder was sent to a John McCain campaign office in this south Denver suburb Thursday, authorities said. No injuries were immediately reported.

A second letter sent to a McCain campaign office in New Hampshire initially was reported to contain threatening language and white powder. Authorities said that was a false alarm and there was no powder in that envelope.

Authorities are also investigating a threatening letter sent to Florida Gov. Charlie Crist that contained a suspicious but nontoxic white powder.

Florida Department of Law Enforcement spokeswoman Heather Smith says the letter was intercepted Wednesday at the mail center at the state capitol.

Smith says investigators believe the letter was unrelated to one containing powder that was received at a John McCain office in Colorado on Thursday.

It is also interesting to note that ACORN also received grant money from the Woods Fund of Chicago. Sound familiar? Obama served as a paid director of the Woods Fund of Chicago,alongside William Ayers, from 1999-2002.

And Obama and Ayers ran the Annenberg Challenge together, which also diverted about $100 million to who-knows-where.

They beat this drum so hard against the Clintons in the Primaries that it doesn’t have much sound left in it.

well I can’t believe that this is anything but valid when it was filed by a prominent attorney. Someone has looked into this and apparently knows more than is being revealed to the public if for no other reason then sheer distrust of being threatened or harmed. After reading caucus stories yesterday, there is no moral compass to Obama or his supporters. I read John McCain is getting threatening notes and one was filled w white powder. Hmm, wonder who would be doing that??

( Governments Motion For Admission of Other Acts Evidence )

Read the above PDF file in full and you will be fully aware how Brack Obama’s long time friend Antoin Rezko, and now convicted felon used various companies as fronts to move money into the Barack Obama campaign.

In reading the latest lies from the Barack Obama campaign in regards to money moved through the front company CSI (aka ACORN front company)one can easily see the pattern of a Rezko style outfit at play again. The MO has the same hallmarks of Rezko’s corrupt ways that is so prevalent in political and mafia circles of Chicago.

So rather than, as some journalists may contend, Barack Obama has not just used others to move ahead, he has in fact also used that experience to run his own Rezko type money laundering scheme through CSI
(aka ACORN).

The question is, who in Rezko’s circle has been helping Barack Obama with the logistics of using CSI
(aka ACORN) as a front and who is getting the kick backs for using that front?

yet, he won’t let the rest of the media have access? So, this was yet another debunking of a previous debunking.

however, Factcheck.org is owned by Anneberg, and ACORN is involved too. So you idiot, the BC that was shown still did not show anything–

birthplace
married status of parents
hospital
birth records.

so ha ha ha yoruself. He is using an illegal BC that granny gave him in HI…not his Barry Soetoro BC.

ha ha, he will still ahve to produce notarized copies of these documents for the court case he is in right now.

lol, anchovy.

Your tinfoil hat is far too tight. LOL Loosen it up a little bit, that will allow oxygen, that’s necessary, to your itty bitty, teenie weenie brain. Now breathe deep. Gooood. Now re-read your post and realize what a complete nut you are. Seek help. Repeat as necessary.

The aliens… they don’t want your precious bodily fluids. ROTFLMAO You just can’t find this kind of humor anywhere but noquarter. Many thanks for the belly laughs.

A little OT, but why has not the MSM, especially Fox, picked up the story about the lawsuit filed yesterday in Phil.? Sounds like it is legit and the lawyer was a former Att. General. Anyone know the truth with this and if the msm is starting to pick it up? I was kind of excited that this could really hit OB finally to the point he would have to start fessin’ up with his background stuff. Any word how it’s going anyone? TIA.

This diary is a little wonky.
Dummies like myself would appreciate a simple paragraph briefing us about ACORN and Obama.

The Vicious Cycle of Democrat Control
Thank you Glenn Beck, for shining some light on a telling correlation. The American cities with the worst poverty have been run almost exclusively by Democrats.

Nearly a third of the residents of Detroit and Buffalo live below the poverty line. Here’s why:

Detroit, whose mayor has been indicted on felony charges, hasn’t elected a Republican mayor since 1961. Buffalo has been even more stubborn. It started putting a Democrat in office back in 1954, and it hasn’t stopped since.Unfortunately, those two cities may be alone at the top of the poverty rate list, but they’re not alone in their love for Democrats. Cincinnati, Ohio (third on the poverty rate list), hasn’t had a Republican mayor since 1984. Cleveland, Ohio (fourth on the list), has been led by a Democrat since 1989. St. Louis, Missouri (sixth), hasn’t had a Republican since 1949, Milwaukee, Wisconsin (eighth), since 1908, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (ninth), since 1952 and Newark, New Jersey (10th), since 1907.
Implementing policies that increase poverty broadens Democrats’ voter base. This creates a vicious cycle that has created the Democrat stranglehold on so many large cities. The more Democrats you have in office, the more socialist policies, the more poverty, the more poor people electing Democrats so as to get their free handouts. This loop has reduced great cities like Detroit into Third-World wastelands and promises to do the same to the country as a whole.

Beck quotes Benjamin Franklin, who would be unlikely to win a mayoral election against Detroit’s felonious Kwame Kilpatrick:

I think the best way of doing good to the poor is not making them easy in poverty but leading them or driving them out of it.
If we had the likes of Ben Franklin running our cities, the cycle would be reversed. The more people who take initiative, the more people there are with money, the more vote against socialists, the more the government stays out of the way, the more initiative pays off.

Unless we find a way to make this happen, Detroit’s present is America’s future.

BABS:

The “health” of Detroit has always been dependent on the health of the U.S. automobile industry, and that industry has been in hospice care for a while now. While I won’t defend Chicago politics, and Chicago certainly has its share of poverty and crime, it also has a reputation as a pretty nice city, with lots of wealthy residents living in the city and contributing to its tax base. And when was the last time that Chicago had a Republican mayor ? The Republicans have virtually no organization in Cook (”Crook”) County, Illinois, and they usually end up running a candidate like Ray Wardingly (a/k/a “Spanky the Clown”.)

question: who the fck cares?

i don’t get this whole “shady donation” thingy. i’m not a very political person, there clearly is something i’m missing here, but what the hell does it matter if they get donated money from an individual person or a company? am i just misunderstanding this whole thing?

someone email me with a response:
