In an article on Fox News Online this morning it was revealed that the scum-bag thieves we have all come know know and despise as ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now) have decided that since they have been stopped in the majority of their scemes to rob the American tax-paying public blind that they will simply sue the U.S. (read as “us”) for all the millions of dollars they have ‘lost’.

Representatives for ACORN sued the federal government Thursday morning in an attempt to regain the millions of dollars in funding the community organizing group lost after filmmakers videotaped its workers offering advice on how to commit tax fraud and various other felonies.
The suit charges Congress with violating the Constitution when it passed legislation in September that specifically targeted ACORN to lose federal housing, education and transportation funds.
That qualifies the legislation as bills of attainder, according to the Center for Constitutional Rights, which filed the suit on behalf of ACORN. A bill of attainder punishes a person or group without the benefit of a trial, and is illegal under Article 1 of the Constitution.
Congress began cracking down on its funding to ACORN after its employees were secretly videotaped in a number of cities offering to help a man and woman posing as a pimp and prostitute to lie to the IRS and acquire illegal home loans.
Footage showed staffers advising the “pimp” and “prostitute” on how to falsify tax forms and seek illegal benefits for 13 “very young” girls from El Salvador that the pair said they wanted to bring to the country to work as child prostitutes. The videos set off a firestorm in Congress. [more]
Well, you have to admit it, these thieves have balls! Personally, I don’t think they have a chance. The folks running ACORN ought to just be glad that they are not (yet) in prison! Considering the ‘Islamic Idiot’ now occupying the White House and the jack-booted morons running the House & Senate, who knows! ACORN is likely to receive TARP money or be given a leading seat on the soon-to-be-formed ‘Death Care‘ administration by Pelosi, Reid, & Obama!
Folks, get on the damned phone and call your representatives in Washington and complain. Complain daily – about this, the healthcare reform, and all the other stupid-assed stuff flying around inside the beltway. The threat of losing power is the one and only thing these guys respond to – then throw them out anyway come the 2010 elections. We can’t get them all in 2010, but we can get enough to make the difference between having our Freedom or losing it.
Thomas Paine said it best in The American Crisis, No. 1, on December 19, 1776…
Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
Bull, out!
