Open your eyes: COLUMBUS - The Buckeye Institute, a Columbus-based think tank, today filed a state RICO action against the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) on behalf of two Warren County voters. The action filed in Warren County Court of Common Pleas alleges ACORN has engaged in a pattern of corrupt activity that amounts to organized crime. It seeks ACORN's dissolution as a legal entity, the revocation of any licenses in Ohio, and an injunction against fraudulent voter registration and other illegal activities. buckeyeinstitute.org

Did you forget to mention this article? WASHINGTON — For months last year, conservatives sought to tar Barack Obama with allegations of voter fraud and other transgressions by the national community-organizing group ACORN, which had worked for his campaign. But it took amateur actors, posing as a prostitute and a pimp and recorded on hidden cameras in visits to ACORN offices, to send government officials scrambling in recent days to sever ties with the organization. Conservative activists and broadcasters are gleeful about the success of the tactics in exposing ACORN workers, who appeared to blithely encourage prostitution and tax evasion. In effect, it was the latest scalp claimed by those on the right who hope to weaken the Obama administration by attacking its allies and appointees they view as leftist. ACORN has a perfect record here in King County WA this election cycle. Read about it in the Seattle Times this morning.
