Dispatches From the GOP Braintrust
Michael Zak, a blogger at Big Government (one of Andrew Breitbart’s sites) compares ACORN to the KKK: ACORN does indeed operate like the Mafia, but it more closely resembles another organization that began as an affiliate of the Democratic Party, the Ku Klux Klan. Aside from intimidating some bank executives, ACORN does not engage in […]
ACORN Scores A Victory
ACORN has scored a court victory, successfully arguing that Congress’s defunding bill was a bill of attainder: A judge has put an injunction on Congress’s ban on ACORN funding.

Steve Newton Comes to the Aid of ACORN Delaware
Steve has a post up about a sting on the Delaware office of ACORN. A blogger/reporter from Kansas called the Delaware office to get some assistance from them to avoid foreclosure.
Overreacting to ACORN
I am a little disturbed by the latest round of ACORN bashing in Washington this week. After a pair of conservative actors staged their own sting operation to see if ACORN employees would help them operate an illegal business, there have been a slew of actions taken. ACORN has lost business that they had with […]
Call the Waaahmbulance for Glenn Beck
