Wake up America

ACORN Obama, ACORN Obama, ACORN Obama Posted: 09 Oct 2008 12:06 PM CDT Barack Obama’s association with terrorist William Ayers is not the only issue that has come to light to the majority of American voters recently. ACORN otherwise known as Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now is under investigation all across the country. This is a liberal group that collects voter registrations and is directly linked to Barack Obama and since they have come to the public eye, Barack Obama has taken to trying to deny his close ties with them, despite monies his campaign has given them ($800,000) his working directly with them in the past and his public statements regarding them such as “I’ve been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career. Even before I was an elected official, when I ran Project Vote voter registration drive in Illinois, ACORN was smack dab in the middle of it, and we appreciate your work.” No surprise to see ACORN in the news yet again today, as they were yesterday and the day before and last week and last month, all for voter fraud, putting though fake registrations, duplicates, dead people and underage children, all in the name of helping elect their old friend Barack Obama. Today we see ACRON harassed voters into registering multiple times, followed them around, encouraged them to keep registering time and time again. From the New York Post: Barkley estimated he’d registered to vote “10 to 15″ times after canvassers for ACORN, whose political wing has endorsed Barack Obama, relentlessly pursued him and others. Claims such as his have sparked election officials to probe ACORN. “I kept getting approached by folks who asked me to register,” Barkley said. “They’d ask me if I was registered. I’d say yes, and they’d ask me to do it [register] again. “Some of them were getting paid to collect names. That was their sob story, and I bought it,” he said. Barkley is one of at least three people who have been subpoenaed by the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections as part of a wider inquiry into possible voter fraud by ACORN. The group seeks to register low-income voters, who skew overwhelmingly Democratic. “You can tell them you’re registered as many times as you want – they do not care,” said Lateala Goins, 21, who was subpoenaed. “They will follow you to the buses, they will follow you home, it does not matter,” she told The Post. Michelle Malkin has a partial list of the recent problems with ACORN and I have been following this with amazement myself recently and you will find those pieces listed at the end of this post under “previously”. Missouri – Officials now have to sift through hundreds of bogus applications submitted last August. Connecticut – A criminal investigation has been opened into ACORN fraud. Wisconsin – Registering convicted felons. Ohio – ACORN tells Cuyahoga County’s election board that they can’t stop themselves from committing fraud. Indiana – Over a thousand new applications from ACORN appear to investigators to be fraudulent, and that should be no surprise, since Indianapolis now has 105% of its population registered to vote. The Associated Press is now reporting even more problems, now in Missouri: Officials in Missouri, a hard-fought jewel in the presidential race, are sifting through possibly hundreds of questionable or duplicate voter-registration forms submitted by an advocacy group that has been accused of election fraud in other states. Charlene Davis, co-director of the election board in Jackson County, where Kansas City is, said the fraudulent registration forms came from the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN. She said they were bogging down work Wednesday, the final day Missourians could register to vote. Davis also says, “I don’t even know the entire scope of it because registrations are coming in so heavy. We have identified about 100 duplicates, and probably 280 addresses that don’t exist, people who have driver’s license numbers that won’t verify or Social Security numbers that won’t verify. Some have no address at all.” Ogden on Politics noticed something very strange in Indiana. It seems that Indiana has more registered voters than people eligible to vote. Now, that is an accomplishment!!!! Other than Barack Obama’s public statements and previous work done for ACORN by him, Hot Air points folk’s attention to an Investors Business Daily article showing that Barack Obama has paid $800,000 to ACORN for their services. For starters, Obama paid ACORN, which has endorsed him for president, $800,000 to register new voters, payments his campaign failed to accurately report. (They were disguised in his FEC disclosure as payments to a front group called Citizen Services Inc. for “advance work.”) Much much more at IBD about Obama’s ties with ACORN. Are we finally getting to know the real Barack Obama? Previously on WUA: Barack Obama Trying To Deny His Ties To ACORN Now?

Video-McCain Campaign Lays Out The Obama-Ayers Connection Posted: 09 Oct 2008 10:26 AM CDT In a one-minute 40 second video ad the McCain campaign lays out the Obama-Ayers connection in a manner which will allow the American voters to see how deep the connection between Barack Obama and William Ayers is. For those unaware, Ayers was a Domestic terrorist that set off bombs on US soil, the Pentagon, Capitol and a judges home, when he was a part of the Weatherman Underground…more here about Weatherman. This is the strongest, hardest hitting ad against Obama yet. (YouTube URL here and ad below) “Ayers” Text of ad: Barack Obama and domestic terrorist Bill Ayers. Friends. They’ve worked together for years. But Obama tries to hide it. Why? Obama launched his political career in Ayers’ living room. Ayers and Obama ran a radical “education” foundation, together. They wrote the foundation’s by-laws, together. Obama was the foundation’s first chairman. Reports say they, “distributed more than $100 million to ideological allies with no discernible improvement in education.” When their relationship became an issue, Obama just responded, “This is a guy who lives in my neighborhood.” That’s it? We know Bill Ayers ran the “violent left wing activist group” called Weather Underground. We know Ayers’ wife was on the FBI’s 10 Most Wanted list. We know they bombed the Capitol. The Pentagon. A judge’s home. We know Ayers said, “I don’t regret setting bombs. …. I feel we didn’t do enough.” But Obama’s friendship with terrorist Ayers isn’t the issue. The issue is Barack Obama’s judgment and candor. When Obama just says, “This is a guy who lives in my neighborhood,” Americans say, “Where’s the truth, Barack?” Barack Obama. Too risky for America. Ed Morrissey at Hot Air believes one more ad might be following which will feature “the son of the judge whose home got bombed by the Weather Underground”: I suspect this is not the end of this subject, either. I’d expect at least one more ad featuring John Murtaugh, the son of the judge whose home got bombed by the Weather Underground. Murtaugh, who is running for the New York state legislature, has already released a statement through the McCain campaign attacking Obama for associating with an unrepentant leader of the terrorist organization that tried to kill him as a boy. I’m certain he will happily participate in an ad to put a human face on Ayers’ terrorism. There is not much time left before November election and making sure the voters know this information before going into the voting booth is paramount. Spread the video around. Make sure those unaware of the Obama-Ayers relationship become aware. .http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONfJ7YSXE5w&eurl=wlmailhtml:{F250FA93-5875-47DB-AD06-2048D3D3BF53}mid://00000122/

Barack Obama Trying To Deny His Ties To ACORN Now? Posted: 08 Oct 2008 05:54 PM CDT Piles of evidence have linked Barack Obama to ACORN aka Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. Documented ties, articles quoting Obama himself stating those ties and now The Corner shows us that Barack Obama is trying to distance himself and deny those ties since ACORN is being investigated in quite a few states for voter fraud? Barack Obama is now apparently denying his ties with Acorn. Here’s what he’s posted on the subject at his “Fight the Smears” website. These claims are contradicted by several sources, a number of which I linked to in my piece, “Inside Obama’s Acorn.” In that piece, you’ll find a link to a Los Angeles Times piece in which Chicago Acorn leader Madeline Talbott is described as so impressed with Obama that “she invited him to help train her staff.” You’ll also see a link to a statement by Obama himself, made in pursuit of Acorn’s endorsement. Obama says: “I’ve been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career. Even before I was an elected official, when I ran Project Vote voter registration drive in Illinois, ACORN was smack dab in the middle of it, and we appreciate your work.” In my piece, “No Liberation,” you’ll find a link to a 1995 profile of Obama which says: “Obama continues his organizing work largely through classes for future leaders identified by ACORN and the Centers for New Horizons on the south side.” My articles provide background, but the quotes and links I’ve presented here, and in the past, pretty conclusively contradict Obama’s current claims at “Fight the Smears.” Read the rest at The Corner for even more evidence of Obama’s close association with ACORN as well as the previous pieces below which also has documented links between Obama and ACORN as recently as this year. ACORN, Rezko, Ayers, Wright, Pfleger, Meeks…etc… these associations of Obama are a good reason why people need to understand how bad his judgment is at best and how crooked his associations are and at worst, his involvement with these people show his negligence and irresponsibility. More on ACORN from NetRightNation: Voter Fraud in Ohio: In a stunning development, the Democrat activist group ACORN – a frequent and influential advisor to Ohio Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner – now publicly admits that its Ohio staff engages in election fraud. ACORN Las Vegas Office Raided: Nevada state authorities seized records and computers Tuesday from the Las Vegas office of an organization that tries to get low-income people registered to vote, after fielding complaints of voter fraud. All Roads Lead to ACORN: Following the DNC Convention, Saul Alinsky’s son, L. David Alinsky, wrote a letter to the Boston Globe. “Barack Obama’s training in Chicago by the great community organizers is showing his effectiveness,” the son wrote. “I am proud to see that my father’s model for organizing is being applied successfully beyond local community organizing to affect the Democratic campaign in 2008. It’s a fine tribute to Saul Alinsky as we approach his 100th birthday.” Palling Around With Terrorists: Watching Barack Obama, twist and turn, stutter and stammer – and, yes, lie – about his up close and personal relationship with unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers has swept me back in memory’s eye to the last dinner I had with my late friend George Crile.

Senator Obama Signed a CONTRACT WITH THE CHICAGO SOCIALIST PARTY Posted: 08 Oct 2008 05:24 PM CDT Everything described in the post below is Hyperlinked to a site within the Chicago Democratic party archives, there is no conjecture, no guessing, The fact is that as recently as 1996 Senator Obama was an active member of the Chicago Democratic Socialist Party: On their website the Democratic Socialist of America (DSA) has a description of their political perspective called Where We Stand. It says, in part, We are socialists because we reject an international economic order sustained by private profit, alienated labor, race and gender discrimination, environmental destruction, and brutality and violence in defense of the status quo. We are socialists because we share a vision of a humane international social order based both on democratic planning and market mechanisms to achieve equitable distribution of resources, meaningful work, a healthy environment, sustainable growth, gender and racial equality, and non-oppressive relationships. According to its newsletter called The New Ground ,Senator Barack Obama attended at least a few meetings of the Chicago Chapter of this group in 1996. And from the way it was described in the newsletter he “talked the talk” and “walked the walk” and even signed a contract with the group. To see all the evidence, CLICK HERE
