Is ACORN the group that pays so-called "artists" to portray Jesus urinating and stuff like that?

>>Finding out who has given, and how much private money ACORN has received wouldn't be difficult at all. As a faithful taxpayer, what I'm most interested in knowing is how management at ACORN has spent the $31 million dollars they've received from the Federal Govt since 1998? Maybe you know?<< Neeka - Yes, I do, and I've posted about it here on this thread previously. There is an organization that is an off-shoot of ACORN that works with HUD on projects involving getting poor people into affordable housing, and receives federal money for that. That organization is no longer a part of the agency we know as ACORN, which is involved in many different kinds of initiatives, including voter registration drives.
