Senate votes to stop funding ACORN

  The last week or two have not been kind to ACORN. With investigations into voter registration fraud that led to the arrests of eleven employees, (with even more to come with any luck,) and with at least three branches of ACORN in three different states being caught on tape helping a “pimp” to avoid taxes and set up an underage brothel things could not get much worse for this corrupt organization. But worse it has become.

  First the census bureau decided to sever its ties with ACORN and will not allow the organization to try to influence congressional representation and now the senate has followed suit and voted to cut off ACORN’s funding.

  The vote was a whopping 83-7 in favor of cutting ACORN’s funding. Finally justice is being served to this criminal organization. I can only hope that the recent events will spur continued investigations into ACORN’s activities, which have long been thought as being criminal. This organization has been getting away with too much for too long but it looks like the jig is up. It couldn’t have come a moment too soon.
