This news is almost as good as the Democrats going down in defeat. The
corrupt, Democratic linked, ACORN is filing chapter 7 bankruptcy. President
Obama can be heard crying for them and his beloved Democrats tonight.
>From ACORN.org <http://www.acorn.org/node/712>:
For over 40 years ACORN has fought the good fight. From a few
initial neighborhoods in Little Rock, Arkansas, we grew to become a large,
active, national organization of low- and moderate-income families, *mostly
people of color*, working together to make their communities a better place.
In working together, we helped families see that they can make a difference.
In the summer of 2008 I became the first new CEO of ACORN in 38 years. We
revitalized a board of community leaders, and began the task of
strengthening our organization. We instituted new corporate governance and
internal controls, and we took the steps to develop proper legal and
financial relationships between ACORN and its affiliates. That was no easy
task, and we were well on our way to launching a new era for ACORN.
The impact of ACORN's highly effective strategies spread throughout the
country, *catching the attention of right-wing media and its
proponents.*The barrage of unmitigated accusations certainly took its
toll, but
*even as extremists increased their radicalism*, we continued to make a
difference for families in each and every corner of our nation. We fought
bank redlining and predatory lending for decades, making the American dream
of homeownership more universally available while protecting it against
waves of abusive practices. We helped build a movement for a living wage,
fought for stronger public schools, helped rebuild New Orleans after
Katrina, and won countless improvements in neighborhoods. As recently as
2009, the organization saved affordable housing in New York, stood up
to *anti-immigrant
racism in Arizona*, and was fighting for real solutions to the foreclosure
crisis, even as the right fought to stop this work in its tracks.
*The ongoing political onslaught caused irreparable harm*. This effort was a
clear attempt to cast a shadow over the historic 2008 Presidential election,
and set up a far *right counter offense*. Through those attacks we re-tooled
and re-organized. Then again came the *right-wing media blitz*. This time of
edited videos that misrepresented our mission, and consequently misled the
public. The pressure and cost of defending ourselves in multiple
investigations as a result of the falsified videos has eroded our
organization. *As a result we will be filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy by close
of business today*.
We have seen this coming for some time. Our chapters closed in the first
quarter of the year. We have spent our remaining resources trying to
dissolve the organization with integrity, while continuing to respond to the
*extremist attacks*. *Allegations and reports will continue to try to
undermine all that ACORN has done*, often searching for evidence from long
before I became CEO.
Thank you to all our members, supporters, funders, friends and allies who
helped ACORN carve out a deep and lasting place in history. Let us all learn
from the past, and march boldly into the future. ACORN will live on in the
hearts of the people it served, and as those of us who fight for justice
know, "THE PEOPLE UNITED WILL NEVER BE DEFEATED".
Break out the crying towels for ol' Bertha. If you would like to read about
the history of ACORN, go to Judicial Watch
<http://www.judicialwatch.org/investigation-acorn>to see the real culture of
corruption that is ACORN. You can also check out one of my favorite sites,
DiscovertheNetworks.org<http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/search/?cx=013255222075609514560%3Avfcebs4vcuo&q=ACORN&cof=FORID%3A11&cx=013255222075609514560%3Avfcebs4vcuo#1012>,
which has a lot of information about the corrupt nuts at ACORN. Remember,
Obama is linked to ACORN directly.
