I'm with Brad on this one! Lawsuits for poisoning up to 100,000 people and $430 million settlements have Acorn written all over them. If we don't stop them now, you can damn well be sure that this new government run health care they're about to ram down our throats will have a provision for MANDATORY ACORN SUPPOSITORIES FOR ALL AMERICANS!!!! I don't know about you but I've got enough problems without adding an oak tree growing out my ass!

And not only that, Bill O'Reilly started the "War on Sesame Street" because Oscar the Grouch sang this song:
A is for Apple
B is for Banana
C is for Cat
D is for Dog
E is for Elephant
F is for FOX "news"
F is for F*ck
F*CK FOX NEWS!
F*CK FOX NEWS!
F*CK F*CK F*CK F*CK

If you haven't heard Bush answering a freshman student's question on Iraq contractor accountability, you must hear it - the student had asked Rumsfeld the same question a month before but Rumsfeld deferred to Bush. Hear Bush defer back to Rumsfeld, even after the girl explained she had already asked him the same thing...scary example of common sense meeting political BS where lives are at stake

Colbert was on freaking fire tonight against Fox News and the teabaggers. I'm only 10 minutes in and I'm dying.

It is my understanding that DynCorp/Halliburton was involved in human trafficking and Donald Rumsfeld figured it was "just a few bad apples."
More proof that ACORN must be eliminated!!
I also heard that the top three defense contractors have paid billions in fines for fraud and other illegal activities. There must be an ACORN connection there somewhere!

Slavery should be abolished in the Sudan too, but what the hell does that have to do with Acorn?
You're right, all of these things should be investigated, and there is certainly a law suit against KBR/Halliburton (and the Subcontractor who actually ran the burnpits that were signed off on by the US Army) as there should be...so great... wrongdoing is being investigated on all sides including Acorn. The only thing I can figure is your main point is these other wrongs "make a right" somehow? Real brilliance here.

The sense-of-irony-free Michael asked:

We have no direct control over slavery in Sudan. We do, however, have direct control over who receives federal tax dollars. And while ACORN, who has neither been charged nor convicted of committing any crimes, has had their paltry funding stripped, huge corporate criminal organizations --- such as Halliburon/KBR, Blackwater/XE etc. --- continue on the public dole raking in more in a single day than ACORN has in it's lifetime.
There is much more than "a law suit against KBR/Halliburton". They have been found to have defrauded the government over and over again, charged with gang rape and false imprisonment of a follow American, are charged with the death of troops while Blackwater is charged with out and out murder, running sex trafficking rings, etc.
They are but two examples, there are scores of other such companies who continue to suck off the tax-payer teet, even after actually having been found guilty of something.
But you Fox "News" patsies have been so utterly duped and misdirected, you've lost any sense of what is right and wrong and who the actual bad guys are anymore. It's really a pity, and laughable were it not so damned dangerous to our nation and the world.
