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?
some silly kids of some evil corrupt parents made some silly prank video against ACORN and Fox News is using this as there war against the lower class
There was really nothing on the video, but since the Fox News viewer isn't the brightest person in the world, and is pretty much racist, it struck a nerve with them
what corruption, what did ACORN do wrong, these kids made a video and it was a silly prank, show me evidence of ACORN ever helping out these type of people or whatever this dumb video tried to prove
And why didnt these stupid kids show the other videos where ACORN denied them and asked them to leave, I am sure FOX news doesnt want you to know about this
Get real, you are defending this group even after all the investigations etc?
This video IS NOT the only problem with Acorn, are you even paying any attention at all.
They are under investigation for fraud on many accounts.
They even owe the federal government millions of dollars for back taxes owed.
Try to stay caught up with this and not defend them.
You really believe this is all about 5-6 videos?
Let me tell you it is not just about the videos and you should be ashamed to not know what all they are involved with.
They are a complete fraudulent group of racist pigs who are stealing the tax payers money and doing crap like this with it.
Republicans think it is a sin, if money is going to be spent helping poor people get a decent quality of life, but when the criminals on wall street destroy our economy it is ok to give them bail outs until America is in debt for the next 5,000 years
This the mentality of the average Fox News viewer
Poor people can get a decent quality of life, as you put it, without Acorn.
Acorn is not the government.
Wonder how the former Acorn attorney Obama would have voted on this?
Any guesses?
The "former ACORN attorney" claims he didn't think ACORN was getting that much Federal money! Laughable. Look at his face, as he made that statement. You know he's lying. What a piece of work he is!
"Gone in 4", must be our goal. That is if America can survive that long, and it's doubful. Not looking too good at this point, but ACORN was getting so much money from the so-called "stimulus" that perhaps we have a fighting chance, since they won't be getting it.
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.

Just so you will know ALL republicans voted to stop my tax dollar from going to Acorn.
This is part of the Republican Fox News War on the lower class
ACORN did nothing wrong, This is part of the Fox News war on the lower class to keep the under class stupid and distracted so they will continue voting Republican
These kids who made these videos are just products of corrupt evil families who make their money off the misery of others(like most Republicans)
Good for these Democrats , more Democrats need to stick up the Republican traitors
The Republicans are waging a war on the middle and lower class and they are winning, people like Obama and Van Jones need to grow a pair and fight back
Obama needs to grow some and not give in to the Republican pressure, call the Republicans like they are, traitors to America
Democrats need to stop giving in, fight back to the traitors of America
Yes, by all means, ACORN should not be held accountable when they are assisting pimps and prositutes with affordable housing and tax evasion. I think you might want to wake up and read a book or two before spouting this nonsense out in the open. And maybe look up the word traitor, and read what the Constitution has to say about traitors. I think you may find that President Obama, President G.W.Bush, President Clinton, President Bush Sr., etc. all committed what could be considered treasonous acts at one time or another during their time as president.
And I hate to break it to you, but Obama is not out here fighting for the little guys. He is out here trying to destroy middle America, which is the heart and soul of this country's economy. Obama has ideas that could come from the Socialist for Dummies handbook, and he's playing his cards one right after another. Please, wake up, and think for yourself. You don't have to tow the party line anymore, today it's cool to think for yourself and maybe not even be affiliated with any certain party. Just go out there and fight for America, not Obama. Because Obama is trying to change America, and since you are apparently very much against treasonous activities in the government, you should be all over this guy. That is, unless you are just another cheerleader.

I really don't understand the contempt for spelling and grammar on this board but ok. I wonder what reasons they had for voting in favor of Acorn; maybe the question wasn't clear and they didn't understand it Those double negatives can be a doozy.
Oh and Obama wasn't a former Acorn attorney; he was a lawyer with a private practice and he represented Acorn in a lawsuit.
With the sariousniss of the issyews I don't know why the heck ewe are concerned about spelling? Is it because you have no defense against the criminal America-sell out Demincrats?
hussein obama has STATED he has worked with ACORN for years, then represented them in court and was their trainer. If you expand your horizons beyond liberal lying media and all the hussein obama blind sheep filled with propaganda, you may find out what hussein obama is really all about if you can get through all his lies.
This is part of the Republican Fox News War on the lower class

ACORN did nothing wrong? If you believe that you must also support theives, liars and criminals. I'll tell you what ACORN did do for the poor and minorities. They got them all into morgages they could never afford and all of them lost their homes. It's kind of like community organizer hussein obama and his criminal friend Tony Rezko leaving numerous blacks living in broken down slums.
If you would watch FOX News you would know that the CEO admitted ACORN did something wrong but it's possible you would prefer to remain stupid.

So.....YOU DON'T think there's ANYTHING wrong with an organization that is so willing to "help" the poor, prostitutes and pimps of America acquire OUR tax dollars, through an organization that THIS POTUS has fully supported and worked with for many years......(for a house to be used as a brothel full of underage ILLEGAL girls from El Salvador) to be used in the sex trade here in America?
Is THIS the "decent quality of life" that YOU speak of?
For WHO?
YOU?
The girls?
Pimps and prostitutes?
NOT me!!
If all this is OK with you........then YOUR screen name is good for you. KOOK!
STUPID Liberals who actually BELIEVE that whatever news they read or hear is oh, so accurate, fair or balanced with the likes of ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC and soooooooo many others!
FOX NEWS is the ONLY media outlet that SHOWS what this govt. is REALLY up to!
It is so far beyond corrupt and BOTH parties ARE just as guilty as the other!
Don't be blaming all that happened on Wall Street solely on Republicans!
WHERE was the SEC?
Where was the oversight and the regulations that have already been in place to prevent such the economic collapse that we ended up having?
Asleep?
Or maybe.....just enjoying the gravy train while it lasted.
Yeah......Corruption and Greed go hand in hand and BOTH parties are GUILTY!
Blinded by partisanship will get you NO-where with some of us.
This administration is completely supported by nothing but radicals, extremists, anti-capitalist, unconstitutional, spend-happy FREAKS.......and a they are all a far greater threat to OUR nation than the last administration ever was.....IMO.
WHO is continuing with these BAILOUTS? Cause it sure ain't GW Bush anymore.
Its THIS administration that TRULY desires to SEE YOUR kids, their kids and their kids........DEEP in DEBT for the next 5,000 years!
IMO.......America is a lost nation with very little hope left after what has happened over the last 2 decades and the path it's on NOW is what really makes me believe this!
And if THIS administration gets its way...........it will truly become an unrecognizable land.....comparable to some other nations that I'm GLAD I NEVER lived in!
It's for these reasons that I no longer vote. They are ALL worthless, IMHO!
Didn't vote for Bush Sr.
I didn't vote for Clinton, GW Bush and NOT this one either!
WE haven't had a decent human being as our POTUS in my lifetime, as far as I'm concerned! But, looking back now......I actually miss Reagan, since he "seemed" the most decent but even that is questionable.
Adios, you Dems/Congress.
2010.....your time be up and there's NO doubt......THIS will only be a ONE TERM presidency.....guaranteed!
THANK GOD!
NOT sorry if I offended any atheists or ANYONE else.....either!
