YES! A Brilliant Kossak has Just Found A Way To Use the De-Fund ACORN Bill Against Repubs!   
   

 
Edited on Tue Sep-22-09 04:23 PM by berni_mccoy
Apparently, Boehner was indeed concerned with the attainder issue and crafted the law a little too broadly. See: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2009/9/22/785247/-They-Wa...

Not only does the Bill apply to defunding ACORN, but ANY organization that may have filed a fraudulent form with the government. They are building a list of companies that meet this criteria and it's already got several including:

- Blackwater
- RNC
- Boeing
- GE
- Haliburton
- Several Insurance companies
- Any Republican Campaign that may have filed a fraudulent form with the FEC
- Bank of America

and many others. The list is growing rapidly.

Direct link to adding companies to the list here: http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dC1WUm4...



I'm guessing Boehner forgot who actually *enforces* the law. LOL!

On Edit: be sure to read the comments on how some of the Kossaks are backing up their nominations with the actual fraud committed by these companies.

I think these idiots should remember that there is a difference between being paid for a contract, as most on the list they chortling about have been, and just receiving grants of cash from the fed like ACORN has done. The government is legally bound by contract to pay most of those on the list. Oh wait, under 0Bama, legal contracts mean very little.

You DUmbasses run with that.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

The only thing worse than a Kos Kiddie believing they understand what any legislation says is a primitive who blindly accepts them as correct.

Should we try to explain to the Little Goons the difference between purchasing goods and services and the outright funding of a communist organization which serves no one and produces nothing? 

Nah.

Can anyone think of a conservative political group that gets anywhere near 40% of its funds from the government?

Fraud ?....did they say defund FRAUD ?....oh goodies....how 'bout SS, SSDI, Medicare, Medicaid, Foodstamps, school lunches.......and that's just for starters.

Why, you know, if we defund all the government fraud mechanisms, we can tax Al Gore and a few Hollyweird stars at 90% and pay all the governments bills.
