We Scratch Your Back--You Scratch Our Backs! Isn't Gub'ment Wonderful?

NC Asks:  Remember ACORN?The organization responsible for registering tens of thousands of illegal faux-bama voters in the scam of the last election?  Well, faux-bama is paying them back now for their worship, and adoration!  Isn’t it just great to know that America has become the kleptocracy that it has become?  Sort of like a third world republic, like Kenya!

A rising chorus of GOP leaders are protesting that the blockbuster Democratic stimulus package would provide up to a whopping $5.2 billion for ACORN, the left-leaning nonprofit group under federal investigation for massive voter fraud.

Most of the money is secreted away under an item in the now $836 billion package titled “Neighborhood Stabilization Programs.”

Ordinarily, neighborhood stabilization funds are distributed to local governments. But revised language in the stimulus bill would make the funds available directly to non-profit entities such as ACORN, the low-income housing organization whose pro-Democrat voter-registration activities have been blasted by Republicans. ACORN is cited by some for tipping the scales in the Democrats’ favor in November.

According to Fox news, Sen. David Vitter, R-La., could appear to be a “payoff” for community groups’ partisan political activities in the last election cycle.

“It is of great concern to me,” Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., tells Newsmax. “I think our government has stayed strong because we’ve had a two-party system, we have had robust debate, people have felt that it was one man-one vote. They are privileged and grateful that they have that ability to cast that vote. And when something is done to belittle or diminish that, it is of great concern to me.”

Regarding ACORN, Blackburn added, “Additional funds going to these organizations that have tried to skew that system, it causes me great concern and I believe that it causes many of my colleagues great concern.”

The three-term congressman stopped short of suggesting the “neighborhood stabilization” money is a power grab by Democrats seeking partisan political advantage. But radio talk giant Rush Limbaugh did not.

Limbaugh warned his listeners Tuesday: “I’ll tell you what’s going on here: We, ladies & gentlemen, we’re funding Obama and the Democrats’ army on the street. We are funding the forces of the Democrat party’s re-election.”

Blackburn echoed the concerns of Republican leaders who object that the bloated package lacks the short-term stimulus a cut in payroll or sales taxes would provide.

According to Matthew Vadum of the Capitol Research Center, the stimulus package now under consideration includes:

# $1 billion stashed away in Community Development Block Grant money that ACORN often vies for successfully.

# $10 million to develop or refurbish low-income housing, a specialty of ACORN’s.

# $4.19 billion to stave off foreclosures via the Neighborhood Stabilization Program. Vadum states the current version of the bill would allow nonprofits to compete with cities and states for $3.44 billion of the money. Some $750 million, however, would be exclusively reserved for nonprofits such as ACORN, which is actually an umbrella organization for over 100 progressive organizations.

Regarding the Neighborhood Stabilization Program, Vadum writes in American Spectator: “Although ACORN operatives usually get their hands on such funds only after they have first passed through the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development or state and local governments, the new spending bill largely eliminates these dawdling middle men, making it easier to get Uncle Sam’s largess directly into the hands of the same people who run ACORN’s various vote fraud and extortion rackets. And the legislative package provides these funds without the usual prohibition on using government money for lobbying or political activities.”

The charges of partisan political payback appear to be resonating in part due to Obama’s longstanding association with partisan get-out-the-vote operations. He was endorsed by ACORN, and during the campaign paid an ACORN affiliate $832,600 to get-out-the-vote assistance. Early in his career, he led a voter drive for an ACORN-affiliated group called Project Vote.

It’s not the first time ACORN has been entangled in a bailout controversy. In September, House Republicans objected that the original $700 billion bailout package included $100 million for ACORN – a tiny fraction of the sums for ACORN now being considered in the stimulus package.

My guest today is Cliff Kincaid, who serves as editor of the Accuracy in Media (AIM) Report.
A veteran journalist and media critic, Cliff concentrated in journalism and communications at the University of Toledo, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree, and came to Washington through a national journalism program headed by conservative author and journalist M. Stanton Evans. At his college newspaper, Cliff won an award for editorial writing from the Society of Professional Journalists.

Kincaid broke the story regarding the mysterious “Frank” mentioned in Barak Obama’s book Dreams of My Father.

In Obama’s book, Dreams From My Father, he’s only ‘Frank,’ a close friend and mentor to Obama during his high school years in Hawaii, in the late 1970s. Understandably, the Senator keeps the identity to a first name only, as Frank Marshall Davis was a known member of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA), an organization that reported directly to the Soviet Union at the time. Why the cover-up? That’s why Kincaid wants the get the truth out. ‘Our media have given Obama a free pass,’ he says.

Also, I am on my way to Denver as you are reading this post to protest the Democratic convention, and the illegal alien invasion of our Country at the Right March Protest scheduled for August 25th! I will be blogging from there, and perhaps I will be doing live radio from this event, so hit that Set Reminder button on my No Compromise Radio web site, so you don’t miss a thing!

NC States: Come to your own conclusions regarding this video. I am asking you to remember this come voting time. It really is time to start looking at third party candidates who actually don’t think it hilarious to run this Country Constitutionally.  I became a Republican doing the Contract with America. Every since then the Republican party has done everything it can to disassociate itself with the Conservative wing of this party. Bad mistake, really bad mistake!

Hat Tip to The Obama File

NC states:  Here’s a very funny joke for those who need to lighten up!  

***

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher, whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. 

Eventually the topic got around to Obama and his bid to be our President. 

The old rancher said, ‘Well, ya know, Obama is a ‘post turtle‘.”  

Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him, “what’s a ‘post turtle’?  The old rancher replied, “When you’re driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that’s a ‘post turtle’.”

The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctor’s face, so he continued to explain. 

“You know he didn’t get up there by himself, he doesn’t belong up there, he doesn’t know what to do while he is up there, and you just wonder what kind of a dumb ass put him up there!.”

Hat Tip Eric

Government mandated healthcare IS NOT about the love that the government has for its People. It’s about controlling how many people will live in the Country. In other words, if you believe that the world has to many people living on it (which the Progressive, Liberal Socialist Democrats believe in) then institute mandated government healthcare, and there is a guarantee that many people will die! Less people to “care” for means more money for the government! Wake up, People! Mandated government healthcare is dangerous for those who actually want to live! Just say no!
