The ACORN/Obama Voter Registration “Thug Thizzle”
October 9, 2008 | By PA Pundits |
Systemic corruption of our election process continues. Barack Obama
and his old friends at ACORN and Project Vote are leading the way. This
radical revolution is taking place in your backyard. And as I’ve
reported before, this voter-fraud racket is on your dime.
On Monday, the two liberal groups announced the wrap-up of a
21-state voter registration drive targeting low-income people and
minorities in battleground states including Ohio, Pennsylvania,
Colorado, Florida, New Mexico and Wisconsin.
What’s wrong with that? For starters, these two groups are militant
partisan outfits purporting to engage in nonpartisan civic activity.
And their campaign comes amid an avalanche of fresh voter-fraud
allegations involving ACORN in many of those same key states.
On Tuesday, Nevada state officials raided ACORN’s Las Vegas office
after election authorities accused the group of submitting multiple
voter registrations with fake and duplicate names.
ACORN, which receives 40 percent of its revenues from American
taxpayers to pursue an aggressive welfare-state agenda, has already
helped register over 1.27 million people nationwide. The rest of their
funding comes from left-wing heavyweights like billionaire George Soros
and the Democracy Alliance.
Project Vote, a 501(c)(3) organization, was founded by left-wing
lawyer Sandy Newman to register voters in welfare offices and
unemployment lines with the explicit goal of turning back the Reagan
revolution.
The two groups are inextricably linked — and at their nexus is Barack Obama.
In 1992, Newman hired Obama to lead Project Vote efforts in Illinois. The Illinois drive’s motto: “It’s a Power Thing.”
As previously noted in this column (”The ACORN Obama Knows,” June
25, 2008), Obama also trained ACORN members in Chicago. In turn, ACORN
volunteers worked on his Illinois campaigns and ACORN’s PAC endorsed
his primary bid with full backing and muscle.
Despite his adamant denials of any association with the group (his
Fight the Smears website now claims “Barack Obama never organized with
ACORN”), Obama’s political DNA is encoded with the ACORN agenda.
The Obama campaign’s “Vote for Change” registration drive, running
parallel to ACORN/Project Vote, is an all-out scramble to scrape up
every last unregistered voter sympathetic to Obama’s big-government
vision. “Our volume,” Obama campaign manager David Plouffe bragged of
the voter-registration program, “will be enormous.”
Quantity over quality. It’s the ACORN way.
In addition to the Las Vegas raid, fraud allegations keep piling up:
– Lake County, Ind., election officials this month rejected a large
portion of the 5,000 registration forms ACORN turned in after
conducting registration drives in the area all summer. Some vote
canvassers had pulled names and addresses from telephone books and
forged signatures. According to local reports, “large numbers of voter
registration forms bore signatures all in the same apparent handwriting
style” and “apparently the organization’s canvassers broke rules to
meet ACORN-set voter registration quotas to get paid.” The fake
registrants included dead people and underage kids.
On a conference call yesterday, GOP officials noted that up to
11,000 voter applications were no good — tying up election officials
and jeopardizing the voting rights of untold victims whose identities
may have been stolen.
– Last month, Milwaukee, Wis., officials discovered at least seven
felons employed as voter registration workers for ACORN and another
affiliated group. They also uncovered a raft of problematic voter
registration cards. The state GOP accused ACORN of attempting to enroll
dead, imprisoned or imaginary people to voter rolls. Fraud has plagued
ACORN’s Milwaukee chapter since the last election cycle.
– In Florida, in Orange County alone, ACORN workers turned in
multiple copycat forms for six separate voters over the summer.
According to the Miami Herald, “One individual had 21 duplicate
applications.”
Election officials had flagged ACORN’s negligent practices several
months ago, but it may be too late: In Orange, Broward and Miami-Dade
counties, ACORN has signed up 135,000 new voters, nearly 60 percent of
them registered as Democrats that constitute a fifth of all new voters
in that region.
– In Ohio, large numbers of homeless people received free van and
bus rides to register. Shelby Holliday, a reporter for Palestra.net,
filmed ACORN shuttling prospects to the polls. She told me she spoke
with one homeless woman who told her ACORN “told her who to vote for if
she wanted a ‘better life,’ and told her not to worry about jury duty
(one of the reasons this homeless woman didn’t want to register)
because the government probably wouldn’t be able to track her down. She
was registering with a temporary address.”
Holliday interviewed another homeless man targeted by the
registration drive who exulted that he was voting for Obama because “I
want him to do his thang. You know, do his thug thizzle.”
“Thug thizzle” is street slang for performing your trademark move.
Obama and ACORN have practiced their thug thizzle together for years:
organizing an ever-expanding community of ineligible and marginal
voters to expand the Democratic power base. Rules be damned.

STEALING THE VOTES OF AMERICANS IS OUTRAGEOUS !!!
Acorn’s voter fraud registration must be investigated prior to the election. Also, Obama’s involvement must be investigated prior to the election. With the increasing number of anti-American racists and crooks surrounding Obama, we must insure that he does not steal this election. We must also investigate the legitimacy of Obama’s foreign and domestic campaign contributions prior to the election.
