ACORN Voter Fraud Allegation: What’s to it?

It is a federal abuse of power to call for an investigation upon the innocent.

What’s behind all these Republican character assassinations, like the recent attack on ACORN? And, how about the abuse of powers to call in federal investigators against ACORN? The fraud is not ACORN but is being carried out by Senator John Cornyn and backstabbing Senator John McCain.

On February 20, 2006, here John McCain is accepting the honors and acclamation of the Service Employees International Union, People for the American Way, UNITE HERE -- and ACORN.



John McCain praised them, telling immigration rights activists at a rally in Miami that they “are what makes America special.” (The ACORN delegation wore red t-shirts with the acorn emblem.)

In early October, ACORN announced that it had registered 1.3 million new voters for the November election.

On the night of October 15, 2008, Judas stabs ACORN in the back and John Cornyn cuts ACORN throat. Just as I predicted, John McCain would betray ACORN on national TV.

Woe unto them that call evil good and good evil... Isaiah 5:20

Who is ACORN?

ACORN is the nation’s largest grassroots community organization of low- and moderate-income people with over 400,000 member families organized into more than 1,200 neighborhood chapters in 110 cities across the country. Since 1970, ACORN has been building community organizations that are committed to social and economic justice, and won victories on thousands of issues of concern to our members, through direct action, negotiation, legislative advocacy and voter participation. ACORN helps those who have historically been locked out become powerful players in our democratic system.

ACORN is an organization that gets out there into the community and does the dirty work of registering voters and empowering grassroots people.

Eddie Griffin is a Texas community organizer, much like ACORN, and a former Black Panther, much like Bill Ayers. This systematic targeting of grassroots organizations by Gestapo raids is purely an act of political repression.

Protect Texas Community Organizers. An assault upon one of us is an assault upon us all.
