Skeptical On ACORN

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

According to Breitbart.com, the Senate voted late Monday to deny federal funds to ACORN (Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now) after videos began to surface of ACORN employees instructing people on how to break the law.  There are now four videos of ACORN employees in different cities explaining to people how to break the law to get money from the government.

Before we get all excited about the vote--it's a free vote for any Senator.  There is no House of Representatives bill that denies funds to ACORN.  In order for legislation to be enacted, it has to pass in the House and in the Senate.  It then goes to committee and gets rewritten and edited into its final stage.  The bill that comes out of committee has to be passed by both the House and the Senate and signed by the President before it becomes law.  The chances of this vote by the Senate ever becoming law are very slim.

There is another reason why the denial of funds to ACORN will never happen.  The news organizations that have attempted to investigate ACORN have found it to be a maze of small organizations that are structured in a way that makes it very difficult to locate exactly who is behind them.   All ACORN needs to do is change its name and continue to do the things it is doing.
