ACORN Just Got Stripped of All Public Funding (Ammendment passed 83-7) Updated at 6:35 AM
An ammendment was just tacked onto the HUD and Transportation funding bill. How is it Repukes can get anything they want done by slipstreaming an ammendment onto any bill but we're stuck fighting about a PO?
http://www.cdobs.com/archive/featured/durbin-burris-vot...
Senator Mike Johanns (R-NE) introduced an amendment to the HUD and Transportation appropriation bill to strip ACORN of all federal funding. A week ago, Johanns wouldn’t have gotten the amendment to the floor. Today, however, after three straight days of BigGovernment.com’s video exposés of ACORN offices in Washington DC, New York City, and Baltimore offering assistance to pimping, tax evasion, and trafficking in underage Salvadorean girls, Johanns not only got his vote — but he got an impressive bipartisan showing. The Senate passed the Johanns amendment 83-7.
The seven Senators supporting ACORN:
Dick Durbin (D-IL)
Roland Burris (D-IL)
Robert Casey (D-PA)
Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY)
Patrick Leahy (D-VT)
Bernie Sanders (I-VT)
Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI)

1. Well it looks like the RW won.
A group that worked in the community taken down based on video from some right winged asshats with an agenda. Do we even have evidence besides this (potentially doctored) tape?

26. advocates for child sex trafficking too
since that clearly wasn't a deterrent to them offering great advice on tax evasion and business advice for child sex traffickers to evade the long arm of the law.
and at taxpayer expense!
what a great advocate!

Hannah was on last night with Breitbart, she did confirm another video is coming out today.
BTW, that chick is a MAJOR babe. The Acorn looneys should have known that street hookers don't look that good.

The 'pimp' should have tipped them off also, I have seen more convincing Halloween costumes.

34. This likely will have legs...
99% of the population doesn't read beyond the headline. The headline is "ACORN caught in child prostitution sting"
No company wants to be even indirectly associated with that. A company doesn't even want to have to explain how/why the story is more complex that than. Some PR is just toxic. They likely will get a lot of strings cut.
Interesting 1st sentence for the username.

The release of the full tape is "embargoed" until 4 PM EDT US time today (I think that is 9 PM in the UK).......you might want to keep an eye on your Sky News feed if you have access.......

I do, I'll be watching out for it. I have FOX news but don't watch that much mainly because all the exciting stuff is on when I am in bed or at work.
-
Glenn's covering it at 5:00. This really is an entertaining development.
I cannot believe that Paulsby's not been deep-sixed. He occasionally comes up with sensical comments.

Since you have FOX, Glen Beck is airing the entire tape on his show at 5 PM eastern.........he is devoting the entire hour to the tape.

Yup, and he doesn't need them anymore as the election is over. Listen for the thud as he throws them all under the bus.

Great I'd like to catch that. That's 4 hours from now and there's even time to make :popcorn:

The thread involves Paulsby squabbling with everyone else. Then, the little goon who wants Rush off of Armed Services Radio chimed in with his favorite cause; prompting a funny quote from another:

48. Or at least give equal time to liberal talkers!
I really don't think that Limbaugh would be able to compete against, for example, Ed Schultz, given a level playing field.

Turns out the woman did not have a dead ex.
It was a bouncy!

You know what will happen. ACORN will just change their name to Peanut or some other such shit and keep doing business as usual.

I didn't spend time looking at the "pimp". I am very worried that Hannah made a very convicing ho.
