Obama and Durbin Try Slick ACORN Amnesty Rider

| October 14, 2008

At this point in 1980 Jimmy Carter held an eleven point lead in the Gallop Poll over Ronald Reagan. Nobody knows this better than Senator Obama.

Obama’s ties to ACORN are getting clearer every day and it might become just enough to turn things.

We should keep an idea on this little POS legislation that Durbin and Obama attempted to pass last year. With all of the wild flailing over the banking mess going on, it would probably be pretty easy to slip this into a “comprehensive” plan.

Not only did Senator Barack Obama’s presidential campaign pay more than U.S. $800,000 to a front of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform, Now, ACORN, currently under investigation in a dozen States for voter registration fraud and bribery schemes, for “get-out-the-vote-efforts”; Obama co-sponsored legislation called the “Helping Families Save their Homes in Bankruptcy Act of 2007”– that was supported by ACORN and protects them.
. . .
Notice now, another key reason why groups like ACORN support this legislation because it: “Prohibits the court from allowing a claim that is subject to any remedy for damages or rescission due to failure to comply with the Truth in Lending Act or any other state or federal consumer protection law.”
. . .
This bill absolves organizations of any guilt or culpability under TILA; perhaps the same organizations who intimidated and bullied banks into providing risky loans to unqualified borrowers like ACORN.

This is an amnesty plan for groups like ACORN, La Raza, etc who bullied banks, filed law suits and forged documents to get undeserving people into homes they couldn’t afford. Any thorough investigation would uncover this and Durbin and Obama know it. This discovery would run these organizations afoul of RICO standards and could make them ineligible for federal tax dollars not to mention possibly putting some of the leadership in prison.

There is a lot of other crap in this like making every homeowner eligible for Chapter 13 but the really big deal is the amnesty.

The ACORN scandal is getting legs and Obama is in too deep to call his trusty bus. How long before he claims that ACORN is the victim?

There it is! Everybody is victim except a taxpayer.

Frankly Opinionated

I am a transportation specialist, and I know that they don’t make a bus big enough to throw all his mess under. How will he overcome this? Will he spin it like the Jose Conseco atty, who sez that the only reason Conseco was busted for drugs was because of his name. It was “unfair” that they chose to look him over. And here we racist conservatives are- scrutinizing the flakiness that is ACORN and OBAMA. Fla Lee County Sheriff is out of line for using the full Barack Hussein Obama name,,,,,,, Just let us Conservatives vociferate like that and we are called Wingnuts. Poor Barry,,,,,,,,,he’ll have to call on all his BFF’s to pick him out of the slime that he has fallen in.

John McCain Was The Keynote Speaker For A 2006 ACORN Conference On Immigration Reform
It turns out that John McCain was the keynote speaker at a March 2006 conference sponsored by ACORN on Immigration Reform. Consider yourself zinged:

Consider yourself bitch-slapped!
