UPDATE 10/10/08: Clinton supporters are teaming up with Republicans and the Feds to bust Obama on RICO charges with ACORN and voter fraud/intimidation.
UPDATE 10/10/08: This morning in the Sun Times, Michael Sneed reported Tony Rezko is singing to the Feds, and the song’s largely about Alexi Giannoulias and Broadway Bank in Chicago. It appears the Giannoulias family might all gather together and enjoy watching reruns of the Sopranos as a realistic depiction of a traditional American family, if you get the drift. Rezko and the Giannoulias family are very close — and it appears the Giannoulias family helped Barack Obama buy his first town house, with a sweetheart of a mortgage…another house he could have never afforded without a benefactor (same with Rezko and the Obama Mansion). In 2006, Obama endorsed Alexi Giannoulias for State Treasury, despite Giannoulias being 29, having no experience, and also never having voted once in his life. It seemed a really strange thing for Obama to do…until you consider his home purhase, and also Rezko’s help in buying the Obama Mansion. Sneed hints at more to come on this. Full post on this HERE.
UPDATE 10/09/08 1300hrs: We just got more on this from someone else we know who works in these same circles here in Chicago. This is a different source than the one who provided the intel below. This person says, “There’s no doubt there’s an investigation. The only question is do they have the evidence to shut down ACORN before Nov 4th or will they just do these state-coordinated raids to try to keep the vote clean until they can indict the national organization?”
UPDATE #2: We don’t have a transcript yet, but apparently Rush Limbaugh is talking about this story today too. So, something must be happening with this that’s bigger than we originally thought.
Original Post: Tonight we talked to someone who works in the federal courts here in Chicago.
The buzz in those corridors is that federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has been leading a team of FBI investigators in 10 states working on a RICO case.
Today, it was announced that ACORN is being investigated in 10 states.
That’s one Hell of a coincidence.
We asked why Fitzgerald would be involved in this, because he’s the prosecutor on the Tony Rezko case and we aren’t aware of ACORN being investigated in Illinois.
We were told that ACORN was investigated in Illinois years ago, and it was a Fitzgerald case then. This means ACORN’s activities today, involving a conspiracy to commit multi-state voter fraud on SoetorObama’s behalf, are an extension of that previous ACORN case.
Our source in federal courts said, “Any crime that involves more than two people and is carried out across state lines qualifies as a corrupt organization. The fact that those “Goodwill” donations were made in Texas and received at Obama headquarters in Chicago or Washington means it qualifies for RICO.”
The “Goodwill donations” referred to above are the $228 million in undocumented, unverified campaign contributions the SoetorObama camp has received — which the McCain campaigned filed a complaint to the FEC on this past Monday.
We’ve also heard that the Clinton campaign filed complaints to the FBI and other federal agencies over SoetorObama’s fraud in the Iowa, Texas and other caucuses: voter intimidation, registration fraud, and other illegal activities.
The last thing we were told tonight in regards to all of this was that “the meme here is a tying together of all these various threads. That’s what you will see in the last weeks of the campaign: all things being tied together”.
If everything rumored here is true, it looks like David Axelrod, Howard Dean, Donna Brazile, SoetorObama himself, and possibly even Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid were all involved, together, in massive RICO violations, and thus federal fraud, if the DNC and party leadership knew what the SoetorObama campaign and ACORN were up to and allowed it to proceed. Knowledge of federal crimes being committed makes all parties accessories to those crimes — and part of the conspiracy to defraud the public.
THAT would certainly be one Hell of a shock tomorrow morning.

Um, when I think of desperation tactics my mind wanders to Obama using intimidation on anyone who seeks to get at the truth. You’re such a bunch of zombies it would be entertaining if it were not so scary.
I personally had an encounter with an ACORN worker doing voter registration the other day. For my own amusement I said I was registered but wasn’t sure who I was voting for and this retard followed me for two blocks throwing out every talking point she had in savaging McCain and especially, Sarah Palin. Finally when it was getting boring I stopped, looked her right in the eyes and told her thanks but I am an Ivy League grad and am not going to be lectured on politics, nor am I going to stand for being told that Sarah Palin is dangerous and stupid by a minimum wage ghetto hoochie.

Rezko sentencing date canceled as deal sought
By MIKE ROBINSON
Associated Press Writer
CHICAGO (AP) — A federal judge canceled convicted fundraiser Antoin “Tony” Rezko’s sentencing date Wednesday and one of his lawyers said he is working with federal prosecutors in hopes of getting a break for his client.
The decision to postpone the Oct. 28 sentencing barely stopped short of confirmation that Rezko is spilling his secrets to federal prosecutors. Speculation that Rezko is telling what he knows about Illinois political corruption has swept through Chicago’s federal courthouse for weeks.
“We are trying to work toward an agreement that would affect sentencing,” defense attorney Bill Ziegelmueller told reporters after the two-minute hearing before federal Judge Amy J. St. Eve. “But obviously no agreement is in place.”
Rezko was a major political fundraiser who bankrolled campaigns of both Gov. Rod Blagojevich and Sen. Barack Obama. But he did not supply any money to Obama’s current campaign and the Democratic candidate for president has not been accused of any wrongdoing.
Rezko was not at Wednesday’s hearing. Prosecutors left the courtroom quickly and breezed down the hall without stopping to answer questions.
St. Eve canceled the October sentencing date and set a date for a fresh hearing Dec. 16 – enough time to see how valuable Rezko’s information could turn out to be.
Rezko was convicted in June of plotting with admitted fixer Stuart Levine to launch a $7 million scheme to use clout with Blagojevich’s administration to squeeze kickbacks out of a contractor and money management firms wanting state business.
Several of the convictions carry maximum sentences of 20 years. Rezko wouldn’t be expected to get that much time for a first offense but still would be looking at years in federal prison. Helping prosecutors could reduce the sentence.
October 9, 2008 at 3:59 am
You guys need to get Lynette Long, Brad Mays and Gigi Gaston to contact FITZ with those videos and caucus fraud documents NOW. I am sure he will be able to us that as evidence that this went on from the Obama campaign using ACORN.
Get over to No Quarter and find the ad that ACORN put out to hire workers for the Obama campaign in Ohio…get a screen shot OFF the ACORN site now before they scrub it. Get that to Fitz too.
Thanks for this information.

October 9, 2008 at 4:16 am
This is a hoot! Between the child-like fantasy drivel in this website and the Bush/McCain’s desperate flailing, the disintegration of the GOP’s campaign is a sight to behold.
I guess anyone dumb enough to vote for McBush is also dumb enough to realize that other than successfully representing ACORN in a suit, Obama has no ties to the organization. But don’t let the truth upset your ridiculous nonsense! I love seeing you idiots flop around and try to spin Republican failures in to gold.
Spin away, morons! (Oh, and make sure to delete this comment right away, as you wouldn’t want your sheep to actually see some actual reality, moderator)
October 9, 2008 at 4:39 am
Actually Obama was their lawyer for THREE years and yes he has ties to Citizen Services Inc. who IS ACORN and Obama gave them money for “campaign services” to the tune of over eight hundred thousand dollars.
Obama also trained ACORN workers in intimidation tactics such as going to bankers homes and scaring their families if they didn’t get a loan they wanted. See the Chicago Tribune from that time period. The SAME tactics they used in the primaries and caucuses.
Keep laughing while you go look up what Soros owns and what he planned to do which was a take over of the democratic party. Then check out how it was done. “The Party is ours we own it now.” George Soros.
“spin away morons’ You are twelve are you? We’ll see who the “morons” are. The truth is there plain as day as to money given and to whom and this explains why the suits filed during the primaries and the over two thousand complaints of fraud in Texas alone in the primaries was not answered by the party…

I hope the moderator won’t scrub the comments of Obama supporters. If it weren’t for all of the cultish, insult-heavy/factually-light, low-self-esteem Obamabots I may not have had such an easy transition from supporting Hillary to moving to the McCain camp. The more from these weirdos the undecideds encounter the less likely they are to vote for the empty suit. They all sound like angry children. The frightening thing is that while many undoubtedly are high school and college aged, even more of his crazed supporters simply come across like it because they are scarred, emotional infants.
October 9, 2008 at 5:13 am
What a pack of idiots you lot are. So sad.
October 9, 2008 at 5:21 am
WOW!!!!!!!
Here is the REAL scary stuff as told by the leading Conservative voices of the day:
The Palin choice “is political bullsh*t”
– Peggy Noonan, longtime Reagan confidante/speechwriter & WSJ conservative columnist
Palin “is absolutely not ready to be president or vice president… scorns not only liberal ideas but all ideas… is a fatal cancer to the Republican Party”
– David Brooks, conservative commentator on PBS, NYT, WSJ and ex-editor of the National Review
“you really got to have some people in charge that have some sense of the bigger scope of the world, I think that’s just a requirement… I think it’s a stretch to, in any way, to say that she’s [Palin's] got the experience to be President of the United States,”
– Senator Chuck Hagel (R-NE)
Ranking Rep. member Senate For Relations Comm.
“If BS were currency, Palin could bail out Wall Street herself… Only Palin can save McCain, her party, and the country she loves. She can bow out for personal reasons”
– Kathleen Parker,
Conservative columnist for Townhall.org & National Review
Obviously, for all the talk about Sen McCain’s experience: the first, (and some would say for a man with cancer who will be 76 before his term is over) possibly most important decision of his potential Presidency has shown, to be polite, extremely poor judgment.
God help us all if that “cocky whacko” (former Senator Lincoln Chafee R-RI) ever gets within 3000 miles of the White House.
October 9, 2008 at 5:28 am
Good work, Kiddo!
Let’s see how this plays out… morons or not, the factual evidence is clear IF humans choose to rationally investigate it.
October 9, 2008 at 6:03 am
You obots must have better things to do unless you are getting paid to attack blog. perhaps you can check out the video taken of the caucus fraud that we have now. Or go read the caucus fraud reports by Dr. Lynette Long.
Yes, god help us indeed if the rampant voter fraud that went on in the primaries is not exposed as well as what is going on now. Obama and his CSI organization linked to ACORN who he gave over eight hundred thousand dollars to for “campaign activities” won’t add up to a thing…
Video evidence, caucus fraud analysis by someone with a math degree…
At this point I don’t care about experience. I care about not having my vote canceled out by a FRAUD who is a puppet of George Soros.
I also don’t care about these ridiculous “quotes” you rounded up and saved to copy and paste. Obama is a smoker…his health is in question too. Except he won’t release his medical records so we don’t know what he’s ever had as an illness. International fraud of mystery.
Even if he gets POTUS, no one is going away on this voter fraud thing. He’s going to be exposed for the b.s. artist he is.
October 9, 2008 at 6:21 am
Nice quotes Obama flunky. Two of the people you quote have been Obama supporters for a while and are not conservatives. You’re quoting Peggy Noonan out of context and from a month ago, no less. And you’re leaving out of David Brook’s comments that he also said that he has grave doubts about Obama. Plus, Brooks is a liberal-suck-up dweeb who is far more interesting with regard to social commentary than he is insightful about politics.
October 9, 2008 at 6:26 am
PLEASE SAY THIS IS TRUE AND OBAMA GOES DOWN IN FLAMES!!!!!!!!

This is one of Many “OCTOBER” surprises…Corsi claims he has official documents from kenya regarding obama and his ties there.
October 9, 2008 at 6:57 am
He’s going down anyway because the truth of his voter fraud and the PROOF of it in the primaries is out there and we are not giving up till everyone sees he STOLE his “historic” moment which all by itself was a disgusting thing to do when there are PLENTY Of other potential candidates who would have been honorable. POC PUMA and some of my A.A. friends are FURIOUS with him for this fact alone. It should have been a person of character and honor not the Soros puppet, who commits voter fraud and uses ACORN intimidation tactics to cheat his way in.
Kristen, I’m with you. I hope this is the beginning of the end of the road for Obama’s political shining “moment”

Hope it’s more than just a rumor. There have been all sorts of reports about ACORN voter fraud, but state election officials just say that they’re overwhelmed and can’t deal with it, meaning that lots of fraudulent votes will be counted anyway.
Of course, the MSM will never say anything about Barack Obama being the former lawyer for ACORN, and training them in intimidation tactics against bankers to force them to make risky loans (which could have partially caused the current financial crisis), and Obama giving ACORN $800,000.
We all remember Patrick Fitzgerald framing Scooter Libby for allegedly lying to a reporter about Valerie Plame (as if reporters always tell the truth–are you kidding???) when Fitzgerald knew all along that Richard Armitage leaked Plame’s name to the press.
Can we really count on Fitzgerald to get the REAL crooks this time? We can always HOPE for CHANGE…

What difference does it make? Obama, Clinton, McCain. Both parties are eaten up with Socialism, and both candidates are cut from the same cloth.
Let’s us citizens from both parties band together and get back to measuring our parties using the yardstick of the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Let’s hold all candidates’ feet to the fire, take individual responsibility for our country’s future, and get the U.S. government out of our hair. Relinquishing our power to them is what got us in this mess in the first place. Power to the People — where it belongs. Please think about. Thanks.

Um, if Rezko’s sentencing has been postponed again, that’s actually a good thing for Obama. He was going to be sentenced a week before the election, but now it won’t be till Dec. 16.
October 9, 2008 at 12:49 pm
Rush Limbaugh mentioned this as a rumor today. We can hope that finally Sen. Obama will be held accountable!
October 9, 2008 at 1:12 pm
It is my firm belief that neither party represents the interests of the American people.
Having said that, Barack Obama CAN NOT be allowed to occupy the White House! Our republic may not survive his first 4 years and certainly not 8 years.
He will be a disaster!
It is unfortunate that so many good people, democrats, who supported Hillary wholehearted have now been introduced to the same treatment from the media that conservatives have endured for decades.
May I remind each of you, we are Americans. No hyphens, no ethnic groups, no skin color.
We all bleed red.
I am an old man. I can recall a time when political differences were discussed, debated by statesmen in the halls of congress. Statesman, now that is a word one never hears these days. Congress has become a of den of prostitutes and thieves.
When the dust settles from this ‘election’, if it is one (ACORN), there needs to be earnest reconciliation. I do not wish to live in an America where half the population views me as an enemy because of my political beliefs.
Make no mistake, if Obama has a 3-4 point lead in the polls and loses the election by 4-5 points, there will be mayhem in the streets.
The pump is primed. For 8 years there has been a constant drumbeat of ‘Bush stole the election’, when any reasonable person can research and learn that he was indeed elected, albeit in a squeaker.
John McCain has to win this election by an unimpeachable margin.
I have never been a supporter of Hillary or Bill. I have never been a fan of John McCain either. I resent having to vote for him, but I ask you, is there any other choice?
I would wager that much of the uncertainty and volatility in the markets are due to the ‘Obama effect’.
The markets do not like his policies. His tax ‘cut for 95% of those earning less than $250,000′ is pure Bull Excrement! Visit ( http://www.ntu.org/main/page.php?PageID=6 ) to learn who pays taxes. The bottom 50% pays only 2.99%. How can 95% get a tax cut? Impossible!
Be strong! Learn all you can and vote smart!

First time here, nice site.
I have a degree in Political Science , concentrate in Elections and Policy – with an internship for the NYS Board of Elections.
The amazing – and scary part of these allegations is this: County Commissioners are trusted with proper election practices and laws. Dig deeper into the areas being effecting and what party controls those county’s, then states. In NY – all county’s have dual party Commisioners – Dem/Rep. I am proud to say as a registered Republican – the level of ethics and fairness displayed by Susan Behrens – Dem Commissioner of Orange County NY in a deeply Rep county during special elections (normally a party throwdown) was inspiring. She played by the book, ensured both party’s had fair legal representation, fair oversight and fair special districting to ensure the VOTERS were treated fairly. Sure there were party barbs – but in good spirit, guided by fairness of the law.
The states, county’s and locals of these areas in Texas, Ohio, N Mexico (as reported 3 weeks ago) need to be exposed for not only the fraud by ACORN – but the willingness of those party ties behind the Elections Commissioners, ergo – the DNC.
For the record – I voted for Hillary in her first Senate run – because Rick Lazio was a bumbling Long Island idiot who didn’t have a clue or the need to travel around our state. The fact an outsider took her time to travel to heavily Rep areas (80% of upstate NY) let me know she at least cared and knew what it took to get elected. Lazio hoped to get the $$$ and support from Guiliani supporters (he dropped out due to cancer) by simply holding a press conference…
October 9, 2008 at 2:32 pm
I don’t understand. If Obama goes down, what is to gain for us? Is the repugnant, inhumane, misogynist, racist McCain / Palin ticket worth suffering in office purely for the sake of seeing Obama fail? Surely not? I understand that this is a conservative blog, but the rhetoric still surprises me.
October 9, 2008 at 2:33 pm

For those who refuse to ACK that OBAMA HUSSEIN MAHAMMED OBAMA IS NOT CONNECTED TO ACORN. OBAMA DONATED $800,000.00 DURING HIS PRESIDENTAL CAMPAIGN TO ACORN. NOBODY GIVES THAT KIND OF MONEY FOR THE HELL OF IT. HE EXPECTS SOMETHING IN RETURN. DUH!!!!! OBAMA NEEDS TO EXPLAIN WHY HE GAVE THAT MONEY TO ACORN AND WHERE DID IT COME FROM, WHERE DID HE GET THAT MONEY AND TO SHOW PROOF. ACORN SHOULD BE ABOLISHED, THOSE CRIMINALS SHOLD GO TO PRISON. PEOPLE SHOULD REGISTERED TO VOTE WHEN THEY GO GET THEIR DRIVERS LICENSE, RENEWED THEIR LICENSE, WHEN YOU GET YOUR I.D. ALSO, OBAMA LIED WHEN HE SAID HE WAS A MULTI PERSON, HE CAN DO 2 THINGS AT ONE TIME. HE CANNOT EVEN ANSWER THE QUESTION, WHEN DID HE FOUND OUT THAT BILL AYERS WAS AND IS A TERRIOST, THAT TAKES ONE SENTENCE TO ANSWWER. OBAMA NEEDS TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION NOT HIS SPOKESMANS. ALSO, WILL OBAMA TAKE THE RISK OF LOSING THOUSANDS OF VOTES BECAUSE HE REFUSES TO PROOF HE IS CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES. NO ONE THAT IS QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT IS STUPID ENOUGH NOT TO SHOW PROOF EVEN IF IT IS A LITTLE INCONVENIENCE OR THAT IT ANNOYS YOU. THE ONLY REASON WHY ANYONE WILL NOT SHOW PROOF IS IF IF IF AND UNDERLINE OR HIGHLIGHT THAT HE CANNOT PROOF BECAUSE HE IS NOT A CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES. WE DO NOT BELIEVE THAT OBAMA WAS THAT STUPID NOT TO KNOW ABOUT BILL AYERS, I KNEW ABOUT HIM, AND IF IF IF HE DID NOT KNOW THEN DO WE WANT A PRESIDENT THAT REFUSES TO TELL US WHO IS THE REAL OBAMA. THIS COUNTRY NEEDS FAIR AND BALANCE SO WE DO NOT WANT FOR ONE PARTY TO CONTROL THE SENATE, CONGRESS, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, AND PELOSI AS SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE. THIS DEMOCRATED PARTY IS NOT HE SAME AS THE OLD DEMOCRATED PARTY, THEY ARE JUST USING THE NAME. JAIL THE 3 CROOKS THAT ARE AT FAULT FOR THE ECONOMY GOING DOWN, TWO OF THOSE ARE SUPPORTING OBAMA, ONE IS BACKING MCCAIN. ALL 3 SHOULD BE INDICTED BEFORE NOVEMBER 4TH ON ELECTION DATE. AND THAT OBAMA IS THE ONE THAT GOT THE MOST MONEY FROM THE MONEY THAT BELONGED TO US TAXPAYERS.

Yes, I have seen this on the news. And it is true. Someone is finally going to pay for being dishonest. And for any one who is thinking of voting for Obama, ask yourself; who was their lawyer in Chicago? And who got money from this group over the years? There are many questions you need to ask yourself before you vote. And please please check out his voting record. And see who’s really spinning the truth.
October 9, 2008 at 3:39 pm
As a longtime Republican and former Obama supporter (I fell for his bipartisan rhetoric at the ‘04 DNC Convention). I did more research on him long before BO launched his campaign in ‘07, and trust me, you are all correct that he is dangerous, and his supporters fell for his rhetoric, not his policies.
If Obama loses, let it be known to future Americans that a broad coalition saved the Republic and democracy, especially the PUMAs!!!! If G-d forbid, Obama wins (or steals) the election, I hope these RICO rumors are true, and maybe he will be spending his term the same way Nixon spent his short lived second term.
To reiterate a previous poster, I hope after this election there is true political reconciliation. I am encouraged by how so many PUMAs and Republicans share the same goal: defeating Obama. Hopefully this lays the foundation to mutual respect. Yet, how can we honestly urge the different Iraqi factions to “reconcile” and put aside their differences, when we can’t do so ourselves?
Perhaps this is the reason George Washington warned against the formation of political parties in his farewell address.

As an Illinois resident familiar with Patrick Fitzgerald’s work… Please oh please let the blood flow. I am so tired of this cock-and-bull con-artist parading around like some f****ng celebrity. He acts as if he has anyones interest at heart. Voting record folks. Helloooooo?
And I love all the hippie Obamanuts posting their ignorant and wise-ass words on here. It’s great, because they love to argue facts, without providing them. And when facts are provided they are irrelevant because it’s the human factor that matters. You can’t have it both way idiots and I’d rather base my choice for “CHANGE” on facts. I’m gonna “CHANGE” the Republican in the White House. That’s it though.

For months I have been overwhelmingly feeling depressed about the political campaign because I have this deep rooted belief that Barrack Obama is and has always been a fraud. His rhetoricv has never aligned with his actions. He does anything and everything that is political expedient. He through his minister under the bus, his own grandmother, his catholic priest friend, his rapper supporter, etc. all had the same fate. I pray that America wake up to this fraud and bestow upon him and his campaign what is rightfully due. And further, I honestly do not believe that he is a citizen of the US and has known this for some time.

I can live with an Obama presidency IF he wins honestly.
However, I don’t think there’s a lot of honesty in Obama.

Obama on Ayers: ‘I assumed that he had been rehabilitated’

Too bad Fitzgerald waited until Hillary was out of the way.
He could have brought charges against Acorn/Obama when Hillary was sending emergency press releases about voter fraud.
He is doing the right thing, finally, but he is no hero of mine.
If had done his job back in the primaries, Hillary would be the DNC official nominee and our future Presiden.

Recently the republicans negotiated the removal of five hundred million dollars to fund Acorn and its ilk from the bailout bill. My friends have found that Barney Frank had this provision added to the senate bill and it was passed and the president signed the bailout-bill which has not affected the economy. Increasingly we are hearing of the deleterious effect that Acorn and its ilk are having on the presidential election and have had on the mortgage business using extortion techniques on large businesses like Citicorp. So we see that these organizations are living off the taxpayers to screw the taxpayer.
Many of us were ignored by the congress and the senate when the passed the bailout-bill which does not seem to have done a thing for the taxpayer. Credit is not flowing; the government has not punished anyone for their part in this catastrophe. Frank and Dodd are still in power denying that they did anything wrong, no new rules are in place. We are all extremely unhappy; so much so that we have decided that if the law is not fixed, rules are not put in place, and there is no blood, we will simply not pay any taxes this coming April.
This letter will be sent to everyone that we know with the request that it be sent to everyone that they know. It will be sent to every blog and news agency that we know in hopes that it will spread quickly though out the land.
See if congress can ignore the people on this demand, if you dare.

Moral of the story:
Don’t F with a Clinton.
October 11, 2008 at 6:20 am
I sincerely hope it is not to late, it all sounds good but I am not sure about the outcome. I would like to see McCain be agressive and show some fight instead of being the nice guy. In a rally for McCain he said Obama was a decent man etc. What gives with that. Regardless I hope that in the future with the FBI investagation we will be able to have fair election. Is that not that we stand for in the US. Fair, true and open voting. And what about what Obama wrote in his two books, we never hear anything about those statements he makes yet his campaign ads say he valuved his mother, not what he says in the books
Oh well, how did we let this happen in this great country of ours.
October 11, 2008 at 9:48 am
Obama is promising everyone the government will do everything for them and they won’t have to wait on it or work for it. This is very appealing to our present society of young people who needs saving from themselves. They want everything they see and don’t want to wait on getting it (like work and save for a car, a house, an education, an iphone, etc.).
Obama’s is a fool’s promise that cannot be delivered, but it is the Democrat platform and premise to fool the American people who are so distraught about our finacial crisis.
I truly believe that we will work our way out of this problem from all the financial information I read. The government needs cleaning out and shaping up to do what the American people want to protect us and keep the country safe in all different ways.
Obama and the Democrats can’t help us here. I don’t understand how such a liberal government with so many socialistics programs on their agenda which requires more tax dollars can help the country.
October 11, 2008 at 11:23 am
There is so much “smoke” out there about this man, there has to be some ‘fire’ to be found !I Pray that it is found and exposed before the election.

We might be able to sue the mainstream media under this act for knowingly covering it up and maybe we could get George Soros’ billions for supporting groups involved in the cover-up, too, like moveon.org! It wouldn’t surprise me if Hillary lost the nomination because of voter fraud. Use the laws and take back this country!

Just found this site, really nice. I had high hopes when I voted for Hillary that she would have an easy walk into the presidency. I didn’t count on the “Chicago” machine being in cahoots with Palosi/Reid. Sad…. I hope this investigation is true and someone can connect the dots back to Obama.

There is a great idea floating around out there for the McCain Campaign-
In an effort to say- Don’t TELL me – SHOW Me.
McCain taps Rudy Guiliani and Mitt Romney to be in his cabinet.
Rudy (The Country’s Mayor and former prosecutor) will be put in charge of investigating AND PROSECUTING Freddie Mac/Fannie Mae- Christopher Dodd, Barney Frank, Jim Johnson, Franklin Raines, Jamie Gorelick.
Then- he also has at his side- Mitt Romney- to be the overseer of Finance, so that not just Paulson and “Kash and Karry” won’t be in charge of the bailout.
BRILLIANT!!!
Now- if he can just find a “spot for Hillary” in there- (Healthcare?)McCain-Palin would be be “in like Flynn!”

I’m starting to believe that you people really believe all this crap.
For the hords of you that only have the one side of the story…
1) yes, the homeless and the poor are hired to get voters to register. Do some of them turn in dummy forms for the money? DUH. Yes, this does happen.
2) ACORN flags every, single voter card they receive that looks suspicious BEFORE they turn them in to the State. They are REQUIRED to turn in every single card to the State, without exceptions. So, if someone ‘raids’ the office and finds the Dallas Cowboys or whatever the hell the latest fraud accusation is today, the cries of ‘foul’ will ring out. Well, they are REQUIRED to be there, no matter how stupid the fradulent form is.
I do not put it past Rovian tactics to turn in falsified forms in a ‘gotcha’ move — and neither do you. Admit it.
3) It’s the county election supervisor’s job to verify every single one of those. THAT is what they’re there for. The suspicious forms HAVE ALREADY BEEN FLAGGED for them.
4) They’ve been investigated from soup to nuts for how many years now? And, how many convictions have there been? Hmmm? ACORN has been around for over 30 years.
5) You might want to research (I know… unfair!) the history of GOP-appointed US District Attorney David Iglesias and why he was fired. After starting a bipartisan PAC to investigate voter fraud in New Mexico (his district), they found ONE woman who was questionable.
STOP this ridiculous, pathetic ritual you all have every 4 years. You all complain about ‘fraud’, can’t prove it – and when you do, it’s all a cover-up. When the media speaks of it, well, they’re of ill repute, so you won’t believe them, either.
Maybe this is why you’re pathetically hanging around a blog, speculating grandiose ideas of cover-ups and huge court actions.

The crowds are flocking under the mesmerizing spell of Obama….beware America……you do not know what you are in for….Remember the saying… A Wolf dressed up as a lamb to deceive before the attack.
I cannot stress it loud enough….know who you are voting for…God Bless.
October 12, 2008 at 6:10 pm
Laughing out loud,
#2 is a joke!! Many registrations have been turned in to election officials by ACORN, so many they can’t keep up(which is probably the way it was planned).
October 12, 2008 at 6:12 pm
Thank God for him watching over us..lies & deception will come forth!
God Bless Mccain/Palin in the fight for America!
October 12, 2008 at 9:37 pm
The “land deal” is a kickback, payoff for their relationship of 20 years. The profit is $84,000. Obama paid $104,000 for a strip of land, ten feet wide with a fair market value of $40,000. The lawyer Obama, a Prince of the Courts, wasn’t just “boneheaded” as he spins that deal, but is a violation of Legal Ethics, if there are any left in Illinois. This is a crime, found on paper, in Obama’s account and is admitted. Why isn’t Obama brought up on charges of ” pay to play” politicking. This is the most concrete evidence the FBI and the people have, paying nearly three time the value for a property directly to the REZKO interest, Rita, his wife. And the rest, Obama Paying for dead and duplicate voter registrations, $800,000. What will be happening on Election Day. Will illegal votes be cast in multiple locations?
If you reading this Dems and I hope you do, Wooten needs to be wearing an ankle bracelet, be put on meds or court ordered therapy and monitoring as he has a dual diagnosis and a anti-social personality disorder, too tough to treat and be rehabilitated. So Lay off Sarah and Todd who had the good sense to know that their brother-in-law needs to be off the force. The Trooper Union, although doing what is charged to do, needs to let this one go. Wooten can’t make anyone feel safe nor can his written reports be counted as accurate or truthful. Sarah and Todd acted ethically, allowing the bozos to run their course and come up empty handed in the face of very obvious incompetence and danger.
October 13, 2008 at 12:38 am
“Real American
I guess anyone dumb enough to vote for McBush is also dumb enough to realize that other than successfully representing ACORN in a suit, Obama has no ties to the organization.”
Here you go idiot its a video of obama at ACORN saying he wants ACORN to shape his agenda before he is even sworn in.

October 13, 2008 at 10:28 am
FTA – We asked why Fitzgerald would be involved in this, because he’s the prosecutor on the Tony Rezko case and we aren’t aware of ACORN being investigated in Illinois.
We were told that ACORN was investigated in Illinois years ago, and it was a Fitzgerald case then. This means ACORN’s activities today, involving a conspiracy to commit multi-state voter fraud on SoetorObama’s behalf, are an extension of that previous ACORN case.
Our source in federal courts said, “Any crime that involves more than two people and is carried out across state lines qualifies as a corrupt organization. The fact that those “Goodwill” donations were made in Texas and received at Obama headquarters in Chicago or Washington means it qualifies for RICO.”
October 13, 2008 at 2:38 pm
Sad thing is, if Hillary hadn’t been cheated out of the nomination, the debate would be on issues.
As it stands, McCain/Palin have a duty to inform America what a radical Obama really is, since Judy Woodruff and her pals won’t.
Oooops. Is “Pals” a racist code word? Sorry. How about “fellow obstructionists”.

BREAKING: Pat Fitzgerald Set to Indict ACORN, Obama, Pelosi, Dean, Santa Claus on RICO Charges
[...]
Fortunately the nation is set to awaken before the nightmare commences. As the always reliable and not at all crazy dead-ender HillBuzz, who supports John McCain and thus remains loyal to Hillary Clinton by doing the total opposite of what Hillary Clinton has said her supporters should do , reported on Thursday,
The buzz in those corridors is that federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has been leading a team of FBI investigators in 10 states working on a RICO case….
If everything rumored here is true, it looks like David Axelrod, Howard Dean, Donna Brazile, SoetorObama himself, and possibly even Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid were all involved, together, in massive RICO violations, and thus federal fraud, if the DNC and party leadership knew what the SoetorObama campaign and ACORN were up to and allowed it to proceed. Knowledge of federal crimes being committed makes all parties accessories to those crimes — and part of the conspiracy to defraud the public.
THAT would certainly be one Hell of a shock tomorrow morning.
Well, I was certainly shocked yesterday by the complete lack of this happening. But then again, Patrick Fitzgerald is notoriously crafty prosecutor. The savvy move on his part would be to prosecute imaginary crimes in a pretend jurisdiction. So do not be “shocked” when Judge Cornelius W.
