Yep, just like the KKK endorsed McCain.
Who is ACORN?

They had employees who paid people to REGISTER multiple times.
None of these people have voted yet so there can't be voter fraud. -

It's easy to tie Obama in with Acorn. You have to stretch to tie McCain with the KKK. -
ACORN has officially endorsed Obama and all the voters they are signing up are for Obama. It's called voter fraud.
One Ohio voter registered 73 times due to pressure from ACORN.

ACORN is evil and so is Obama who has helped perpetrate fraud and strong arm or under the table tactics to even get the DNC nomination. See other threads.....
The whole election process is being tainted before our very eyes in ways never before attained, considering all the ongoing ACORN investigations in multiple states. They will win at any price and nothing is out of bounds to Obama and his supporters, even the Rule of Law. -
2. Obama didn't "form" ACORN.... Not that it would matter since it's been years since he did the training and I am sure a Harvard Law grad didn't teach them to break the law. -

The answer, I don't believe a crime was committed. Kind of like Palin, it was an moral or ethical violation but not really a crime.
PS...
I did see it on the news last night, I don't think we have to worry about that guy voting. I think he was more interested in the compensation for the registration cards (cigarettes etc...) -

Senator Obama has worked hand in glove with ACORN, the group under investigation for voter fraud in many states, for many years. You won’t find our press reporting these connections, so if you want the true facts on Barack Obama sometimes you have to read foreign papers, strange as it seems. Here you seen an article at Canada Free Press that outlines those recent legislative ties:
Not only did Senator Barack Obama’s presidential campaign pay more than U.S. $800,000 to a front of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform, Now, ACORN, currently under investigation in a dozen States for voter registration fraud and bribery schemes, for “get-out-the-vote-efforts”; Obama co-sponsored legislation called the “Helping Families Save their Homes in Bankruptcy Act of 2007”– that was supported by ACORN and protects them.On the surface the goal was noble, but like his record with the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, Barack’s efforts on the housing front led to zero results, unless you want to look at the monumental meltdown of financial companies from choking on sub prime loans forced down their throats, which is a very bad result. If you go to the areas Obama organized in, if you look at housing in his state, you see people no better off or worse off. See Here.
Acorn has fought foreclosures but also supported legislation that enabled this credit market meltdown for almost two decades. They are particularly responsible for helping raise the caps on permissible loan to values, lowering of the standards at Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac (FNMA & GMAC,) as well as legislation that increased the percent of subprime loans they had to carry. So in a way Acorn helped open the subprime floodgates and helped create a whole new class of victims to feed into their political causes.
You won’t see the McCain campaign bring this up for a few reasons. Even though Acorn and Democrat legislators created the sub-prime valley of vultures that poor people were fed into, even though they profited with donations from the very predatory lenders that they trailblazed the market for, it’s a no go simply because the defense will be to show America a non stop calvacade of poor people getting foreclosed upon. Poor people who were sold a dream that was really a nightmare by pernicious legislators who would rather crush our economy than lose an election....

Isn't that DNC water bucket getting heavy? The reason I asked that question was because Ken insisted that Acorn was non-partisan. Since they endorsed Obama that cannot be true. So the next time you want to interject yourself find out what your talking about. -

Here again you are clearly wrong. I don't know if it just because you react with knee-jerk reactions to anything that dares come against your chosen candidate, or if you willingly chose to ingore documented evidence, facts, and sources.
Here is an article that shows BHO's well documented connection to ACRON and the fact that he personally helped to train some of their leadership and sat on boards of foundations that gave financial support to ACRON:
See the article for the complete story.
And this article is even more eye opening:

Now if you would all be so kind as to look closely at my statement, you will find it to be true.
The times he did work with ACORN was when he was a community organizer. This was back in the 90's. I still don't believe a group like ACORN would have the same workers out on corners as the ones Obama trained. For one, Obama did his training in Chicago and these people are all in other battleground states. I also found this caption interesting while on FActcheck today.
He did appearently give money to one of the branches of this organization for a get-out-the-vote effort but I'm sure the money didn't come with instructions on how to do the job.
To imply Obama has any connection to this fraud is ludicrous and a real stretch of the imagination. This is just another conservative attempt to shift voters attention from real issues like the economy, wars in two countries, unemployment on the rise and people without health care. -

In light of ACORN's history in this area wasn't it an act of poor judgement on Obama's part to hire ACORN out of all possible groups to organize a get-out-the-vote effort?
I thought that we wanted our next President to be able to make good choices. -
