Here are 75 Democrats who voted against stopping all federal funding to Acorn.

These 75 idiots should be in flashing lights as they just committed themselves to being for a group of fraudsters who use our tax money to screw us back.

We cannot allow these 75 to remain unknown, they all should be called out on the carpet and be demanded to tell us why they still want out tax money going to this fraudulent group.

The democratic party is the part of corruption and Acorn is just the start of this.

Wonder how the former Acorn attorney Obama would have voted on this?

Any guesses?

I'm shocked concerning Kucinich's vote. I thought he was more principled and stood up against corruption.

Do not be shocked with his vote at all.

I have no clue why anyone would even consider such a vote. I have been diligently watching CNN, MSNBC, CNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC and the E Channel, am I missing some important news about ACORN that would bring about such a vote?

Right. A minority of house Democrats vote not to strip ACORN of money, and this reflects on the whole party. Of course this doesn't excuse these 75 members, however most House Democrats, including the leadership - Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, voted to strip ACORN of taxpayer funds. These other members are very partisan and are no more or less corrupt than the very partisan Republicans who would do the same thing for a corrupt conservative organization. Don't delude yourself into thinking corruption has a single ideology or party.

And I agree, i can't begin to guess what would cause one to vote in favor of funding ACORN.

You are joking right?

I sure hope so because no one can be that confused to see what is happening.

If you are missing the point behind this then you need to never vote again.

So are you defending Acorn then?

Funny...Rangel couldn't even muster ONE SINGLE ETHICAL VOTE.

Of all times in his political career, it would seem that this would be a time that he'd want to at least look ethical.

The scum of the Earth can be found in Washington, DC, as evidenced here.

American Idol and the Family Guy shows? Yeah, you may have a point if I toss in King of The Hill.

Fox news and Fox...different animals. Federal premium ammunition co. and Federal Express: same company? BTW, you would've also caught the sex trade scandal by watching Fox.
