That's great, thanks for the link.

Now consider this: (from mj)

The population of America was about 303,824,640 in 2008 according to CIA fact site.

Divide ACORN'S $5,200,000,000 ($5.2 billion)stimulus by the total population in America.

This means each person would be giving about $18.00 each to ACORN----this includes all members, your new born children, your grade schoolers and the parents.

A family of 2 would pay ACORN $36.00 a year; a family of 5 would pay ACORN $90.00 per year, a family of 6 would pay $108.00

For what???? To a political organization organized as a non-profit organization----to influence elections.

This tucking away of ACORN in the stimulus bill is similar to what happened with the expenditure of the Obama Campaign for about $875,000.00 paid to ACORN in the Primary Campaign. Recall that initially the money was not identified as being paid to ACORN. When it was identified by others going over the Federal Election Reports, ACORN was found to be the recipient. The excuse was something like "just an accounting error".

JUST SAY NO TO OBAMA ON GIVEAWAYS TO ACORN.
