Not anymore, I just saw 3 senators and Robert Gibbs (the sloth) talking about ACORN on TV.

ACORN has been receiving funds from the Federal government since 1994, including all those years the Republicans controlled Washington.

Inaccurate. But nice try at deflection.
The left is very good at pointing out the faults of other people with no basis for their accusations (i.e. calling out racism, extremism) but all we have heard from these so called progressives is complete and utter nonsense. The left believes they are a hoard of intellectuals but over the last 8 months they have only proven they are no better then they very people they critisize. They are voted into control of Government but are running around like chickens with their head cut off because they believe Republicans are not playing nice.
Hence the lack of progress in this nation while so called "progressives" are in charge.

So you are ignoring a group that is fine helping children being used for sex trade?

It's easy to rationalize "trivial" matters such as a child sex slave trade when you think of the bigger picture, or the perceived greater good that ACORN provides.

So now the WH has commented on the Acorn issues, and now the mainstream media can't hide anymore...but for real news people know that they have to watch Fox news...specially since Charlie Gibbs already admitted not have one clue what was going on!

I'm with the OP...Acorngate might be Obama's downfall, the Czar's are going to be investigated as well...so the snowball effect has started!

What does that say about the left (if it were true, which it is not)?
The mainstream media can't ignore the growing monster in the room anymore.

Not sure what you meant here. Are you being sarcastic, or do you mean you actually think ACORN does good?

I'm right there with you on this. They can't ignore it anymore! Finally, it's about time.
