OT ACORN sues filmmakers
"sittingduck" wrote in message fraid.org... Garlicdude wrote: ACORN According to Rep. Grayson, the Defund ACORN bill is written so broadly that it literally compels the de-funding not only of that group, but also the de- funding of, and denial of all government contracts to, any corporation that "has filed a fraudulent form with any Federal or State regulatory agency." By definition, that includes virtually every large defense contractor, which -- unlike ACORN -- has actually been found guilty of fraud. As The Huffington Post's Ryan Grim put it: "the bill could plausibly defund the entire military-industrial complex. Whoops." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFDmyIPm1kg Sounds great, Take down Acorn AND the MIC. Rightards scream bloody murder about Acorn's relatively minor issues, and don't say **** about outright fraud, murder, and other criminal activities by defense contractors that BushCO installed in Iraq. If only the lefties had the same drive to go after people..... -- Madness the magnet keeps attracting me -- kid cudi great link sittingduck! i'd love to see some congressperson put the *screws* to kbr and blackwater. rachel maddow did a nice piece on this story tonight. kinda boiled it down so it's easy to understand. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26315908...27963#33027963 How did ACORN become a target? Sept. 25: Rachel Maddow is joined by The Nation correspondent and author, Jeremy Scahill, to look at government contractors who are guilty of far worse than ACORN and yet have suffered none of the persecution in the media or Congress. What's really behind the attacks on ACORN? |
