ACORN hired inmates, some experts at identity theft

Related files

A handful of inmates at Casa Grande had been convicted of identity theft-type crimes and were hired as canvassers by ACORN. Read the devastating affidavit at right.

  1. gotta give them credit for creativity - of course they shouldn't act like politicians do in those honest states and places like Boston, Chicago, Alaska, probably New Orleans, and lots of other places. I bet there may have even been such things in Phoeinix!

  2. Look at Washington state's last governor's race--129 votes (after three counts--and they kept finding ballots)...after the election, they removed 475,000 voter registrations.

  3. LOL...........

  4. What's the big deal, John Kennedy won in 1960 with the help of thousands of dead people voting for him in Chicago and he and Lyndon got more votes in some Texas counties than the 1960 Census reported living in those counties. Had he not got these votes, Watergate would not have happened and Kennedy might still be alive.

  5. Interesting point regarding JFK--he would still be in the senate and Ted would not have taken his seat...Mary Jo Kilpatrick would not be a name any of us know.

  6. Acorn in Ohio having huge problems with voter registration. Nothing new here. You can in most cases tie illegal and unethical practices to the democrats. Fact Acorn is a democrat backed and supported organization. You can take it to the bank if you can find one open.

  7. "You can in most cases tie illegal and unethical practices to the democrats."

    That's a good one. What about the congressional pages scandal with Foley? What about "the Hammer" Delay being forced out on ethics charges? What about Cheney's perpetual desire to cloak everything in secrecy, like shooting someone in the face with birdshot in an accident? What about politicizing the Justice Department?
    Both parties have severe issues. Both are dirty, and both have their moments of cleanliness. To assert otherwise is to reveal oneself to be a total idealogue/political hack.

  8. Where is the Governor of our State and what is he going to do about this embarrassment of using inmates with identity theft cases being used in a voter fraud scheme by this ACORN organization under indicment in OHIO for voter fraud. This has to be a crime what is being done about this leadership within the NDOC. Governor do something like you did with the Yucca mountain executive. Step up to the plate and demand accountability. Do something for the citizens ofthis state

  9. If the SOS doesn't totally muff his first big case, this will eventually tie back in to Boss Reid, the Nevada Dems, and Jill Derby.

    I've always felt those Dem caucusux registrations were bogus but couldn't connect the dots. Until now.

    When you get millions and milllions of slush fund dollars flowing through politicos hand in NevaDUH - and the SOS does little but file the campaign reports away without examination - this is going to continue to happen.

    This has all occurred because the SOS is not doing his job following the illegal political slush money here.
