I guess they consider mission accomplished now that Obama is in the White House
The national group ACORN is folding,an official there,Kevin Whelan,said in an emailed statement:
The ACORN Association Board met on Sunday March 21 and approved a set of steps to responsibly manage the process of bringing its operations to a close over the coming months. These include:
* Closing ACORN’s remaining state affiliates and field offices by April 1st;and
* Developing a plan to resolve all outstanding debts,obligations and other issues.
ACORN’s members have a great deal to be proud of–from promoting to homeownership to helping rebuild New Orleans,from raising wages to winning safer streets,from training community leaders to promoting voter participation—ACORN members have worked hard to create stronger to communities,a more inclusive democracy,and a more just nation.
ACORN was always a very decentralized group,with a great deal of its activity and power concentrated in local chapters from New York to Arkansas —the strongest of which will survive. The collapse of the national group,though,reflects the impact of a conservative assault.
I will believe it when SEIU no longer visits the WH. I am sure their up ot a brand new scheme !
What is the new name? I'm quite certain they aren't really folding now that their man is in the white house. Isn't congress still funding them?
They are,they have just re-names themselves. Obama will never let them fold. Do be fooled! Darrell Issa was on Fox today and said this isn't exactly true because they are forming under different names.
Are you people angry enough to fight for our freedom yet? If you are not willing to fight these people by whatever means required then please shut up and receive what you appear to so willing to accept. Freedom has never been free,there has a lways been a very high price paid,as any veteran. We are at war with our own evil and corrupt government. So put up or shut up. Talk accomplishes nothing,action accomplishes everything.
I don't think they will close are stop doing their cheeting they may lay low till next election. So they can get hundred's of thousand registered to vote then. They signed up people that never existed and some were dead even,People that were in jails so on and so forth you name it.
THIS IS ANOTHER LIE. THEY WILL COME OUT WITH A DIFFERENT NAME-SAME IDEAS-STUFF ILLEGAL BALLOTS AND AS LONG AS OBAMMIE IS CONNECTED IT IS EVIL AS EVIL CAN GET. THEY ARE ALL COMMUNIST-NO GOODS.THEY ARE OUT TO DESTROY THE HAND THAT FEEDS THEM-DUMB-DUMBS.!!!! AND ALSO TO DESTROY OUR COUNTRY AND CONSTITUTION. THEY ALL NEED PUNISHED!!!!
Agree with you Bert. Was thinking the same thing.
