In a disappointing sign that the House Republican Leadership has not earned and does not deserve to retake the majority in the House of Representatives, a bunch of people are confirming for me today that the House GOP has decided to sign on with ACORN and endorse Dede Scozzafava in NY-23. As I reported the other day, Scozzafava has repeatedly been backed by ACORN in | Read More »
I don’t know why the MSNBC folks keep having Brian on. Every time he gets on there he makes them look foolish. Yet again, he delivers a knock out performance. And special thanks to him for doing it. I’ve got my family visiting and had to bail and pass off to him. I’m glad I did. I would not have been as good. Since you | Read More »
Last week we showed how Barack Obama is connected to ACORN by his White House Political Director, Patrick Gaspard. The Missouri blog 24thstate.com has built on those ties and has a look at Sara Howard, Russ Carnahan’s spokesgal. Howard and Gaspard both worked for Americans Coming Together (“ACT”) in 2004. In that year, ACT sent out a sensational, hate filled political flier showing white men | Read More »
We have broken down in detail how ACORN has its own political party called the Working Families Party in New York. When a candidate appears as a Working Families Party candidate in New York, it is a signal that this is the candidate ACORN is putting up. In New York’s 23rd Congressional District, the Republican Party rushed to nominate Dede Scozzafava as the replacement for | Read More »
You can read the first part of our examination of ACORN contacts leaked to RedState by clicking here. Above is a word cloud of the associations in the Bertha Lewis contacts list we received. Some are legitimate business dealings. Forest City Ratner, for example, is both bailing out ACORN and relying on its support for its construction projects. But others are more intriguing. The larger | Read More »
If you were doubting the legitimacy of RedState’s access to Bertha Lewis’s contacts list, look no further than Media Matters’ overheated rhetorical condemnation of our writing about it. Double standard much? If this were a right-wing organization, Media Matters would be plowing through it. As Media Matters does not organizationally poop without prior coordination among left-wing interests, we can presume they are scared by the | Read More »
There were seventy-five votes in the House of Representatives against defunding ACORN. What if we put up a list of names and whether or not there are in-district ACORN offices. We get this: 2/3 of the votes against defunding ACORN have ACORN offices in their districts. 1/3 do not have offices in the districts. Congressman Delahunt has no ACORN office in his district, but has | Read More »
The story in a nutshell: Bertha Lewis is the CEO of ACORN. In a review of Lewis’s contacts list, which was leaked to RedState, Bertha Lewis has the office, cell phone, home number, and private personal email address of Patrick Gaspard. Patrick Gaspard holds Karl Rove’s position in the White House and was Obama’s Political Director during the campaign. In addition to Patrick, Bertha has | Read More »
We all know about ACORN right? The group masterfully steals elections by overwhelming the system with fraudulent voter registration applications that translate directly into voter fraud. They stampede election centers causing chaos so votes can be cast while people are distracted. They vote for the dead and claim racism when they are challenged. Well now we know how an unpopular jackass like Al Franken has | Read More »
The Toledo Blade gets today’s award for rigorous media adherence to Democratic talking points with this article titled “Ohio’s Brunner seeks aid from high court” with the subtitle “Rights of about 200,000 Ohio voters rest on justices’ decision.” The “aid” implies some form of relief for a wrong. That wrong would be the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, which ordered Brunner to comply with federal | Read More »
Tonight in the debate, Obama said, “The only involvement I’ve had with ACORN is, I represented them alongside the US justice department in making Illinois implement a motor voter law that helped people get registered at DMVs.” That is a flat out lie. As Katrina Vanden Heuvel, not exactly right-of-center, wrote in the far left Nation on February 23, 2008, “[A]CORN’s political action committee endorsed | Read More »
What’s ACORN’s angle in all of this? You’ve got to have asked yourself the question. Why blatantly overwhelm the system. They had to know they’d get caught. Step back for a minute. Yes, the immediate goal is to get Barack Obama elected President. But beyond that, what is the goal? If you remember my original post on the New Party, I noted that By 1996, | Read More »
This post has started circulating again, so I wanted to put it back up. I’m adding a section entitled “New Revelations” that further connects ACORN to the New Party Obama and the New Party We’ve already documented Obama’s 1996 endorsement by the New Party: which raises the question: what is the New Party? It’s easy to allege that this group is closely tied to former | Read More »

Don’t underestimate the McCain campaign. What type of movie do Americans really like? Not the popcorn flicks, but the ones that leave you saying “holy sh–” at the end when the credits roll. The Usual Suspects comes to mind. Here’s a movie where you have multiple story lines coming together toward the end, all connected to a central character, and when it finally dawns on | Read More »
This is your must read of the day. The media will not report on Barack Obama’ ACORN ties. The relevant question for all of this, however, is this: Did Barack Obama, as a voter registration organizer for ACORN, participate in or encourage voter fraud? I suspect that he did. I’m told that Illinois and Missouri voter registration problems have Obama’s finger prints on them from | Read More »

I’ve written before about Barack Obama’s ties to the far, far left. In 1996, he sought the New Party endorsement. The New Party has, by 1996, become the party of Communists and other radicals. It was, for all intents and purposes, an amalgamation of CCC, CPUSA, Green, and Social-Democrat parties. As I noted then By 1996, the New Party had solidified its ties with ACORN, | Read More »
