Mega Tax Money to ACORN: Marxism via 'Stimulus' or 'Reinvestment' Act

This was just received, via email from WorldNetDaily.com, posted without detailed analysis and your comments and pertinent contributions are very welcome.

Keep in mind I.O's warning: all the Obama/Pelosi regime has to do, to be successful neo-Marxists is to:

1. raise the armies of the proletariat (e.g., the ACORN hydra)
2. weaken the entrepreneurial, investing, middle class -- the bourgeoisie

In other words: institutionally "reinvest," i.e., rob those honestly working to stand on our own two feet and provide for our families and charity (according to Scripture and common sense) and give it to Obama's thug army. Note how even the formal name of this act, "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009" is thematic with one of the acts which created the crisis it porports to solve, the "Community Reinvestment Act."

Beware of state "reinvestment" of your livelihood. Whenever you see "reinvestment," I.O. suggests you think "redistribution," i.e., Marxist insurrection.

Dear Conservative Friends,

I almost can't believe it.

Liberal Democrats slipped into the so-called "Economic Stimulus" bill a provision to give millions, if not billions, of dollars to ACORN.

You remember ACORN, the ultra left wing group that has been accused of voter fraud and funneling millions of dollars in taxpayer money into liberal political activism.

ACU raised awareness about ACORN in the last election campaign. They were raided by FBI agents and investigated for falsifying thousands of voter registration records. We produced short documentary videos on ACORN; their ties to left wing groups, the Obama campaign paying them for voter turnout and other activities. Worse, we showed that ACORN was actually involved in the push for subprime loans and the mortgage meltdown that has driven down our economy. If you have not seen our short videos, you can see them here on our ACORN action page: http://www.conservative.org/acornaction.html

Now, the Democrats in Congress are trying to give ACORN millions - even billions - more of our taxpayer dollars.

You may have read that the House passed a version of the so-called Stimulus Bill without any Republican votes. The Senate passed their version. The liberals who control the Congress worked out a deal to get a final bill to the President. With his signature on the bill we must be prepared to act in order to fight back against ACORN getting any of these funds.

We need to act on this issue now and we must be prepared to fight to stop the monies from actually being disbursed to ACORN.

House Republican Leader John Boehner raised the alarm when they discovered that buried in the first version of the then trillion dollar spending bill approved by the House Appropriations Committee was a provision for over 4 billion dollars to go to "neighborhood stabilization activities."

Instead of providing these funds just to state and local governments, the bills said funds can go to "States, units of general local government, and nonprofit entities or consortia of nonprofit entities."

Why did the Liberals who control U.S. House under Nancy Pelosi slip that language into the bill?

Because the "non-profit entities" are units of ACORN.

Boehner noted that, "The House Democrats' trillion dollar spending bill also includes $1 billion for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program." He then went on to point out that ACORN reports filed with the Office of Management and Budget shows that ACORN spent almost 1.6 million in federal taxpayer Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program funds from 2003 through 2007. Now they are going to come back for more.

Boehner's analysis also shows that ACORN has been awarded more than $53 million in taxpayer dollars over the last several years. This amount does not reflect the millions more ACORN has received in federal block grant funds awarded to state and local agencies which passed them on to ACORN.

President Obama and the liberal Democrats in Congress have said that they want this trillion dollar stimulus bill to create jobs in America. What they haven't said is that this is becoming part of a political pay-off bill to reward their liberal friends with billions of dollars in taxpayer money.

What is sad is that our economic crisis was in part caused by these very same groups who are now seeking to get their hands on billions of dollars in taxpayer funds.

As our video and other documentation pointed out, ACORN pressured lenders and regulatory agencies to promote subprime loans, a chief culprit in our economic collapse. In turn they received millions from the mortgage companies themselves and in turn Obama's friends at Fannie Mae reaped millions more in the process. And, it should be noted that Joe Biden's new Vice Presidential Chief of Staff is a former lobbyist for Fannie Mae.

Now, ACORN is set to receive funds from the stimulus package.

This has to end. The revolving door of political and financial interests that have led our country to economic collapse must be stopped. We must push back against this effort to give funds to a group that has shown it is directly involved in liberal political action and voter fraud.

We need your help to fight back. We want to flood Capitol Hill and the news media with petitions against these attempts to take our tax dollars and give them to left-wing advocacy groups. Please go here, now to sign our ACU ACORN Stimulus bill petition and support ACU on this critical endeavor to stop ACORN from ever receiving any of these funds.. [I.O.: fundraising appeal left in]*

Thank you for your help with this important effort to shine the light on efforts to give billions to ACORN.

Sincerely,

Dennis Whitfield
Executive Vice President

P.S. President Barack Obama's campaign gave more than $800,000 to ACORN for voter turnout and in turn they were raided and investigated for voter fraud and now the liberals in Congress are trying to reward them with millions - even billions - in taxpayer funds. Please help us fight back now!

What members of Congress but traitors voted for this treason against the identifying and foundational principles of the United States of America?
