Obomination: Obama Continues to Support ACORN
Apparently, Obama’s right hand (his
DOJ) ignores what the left hand (which Obama uses to sign) is doing. Obama’s Office of Justice Programs awarded a grant
of $138,130 in 2011 to Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now
(ACORN) in order to “sustain the efforts” of the organization. But wait! In December of 2009, President Obama signed
into law a bill that prohibits
federal funds from going to ACORN.
Unfortunately, continuing support
of ACORN is not surprising for President Obama.
Our 44th President titled
his campaign’s voter registration effort “Project Vote” which has the same name
of an organization intricately tied to ACORN. As a young lawyer, Barack Obama
worked for a Chicago chapter of Project Vote!
The media widely reported
that ACORN shut down back in March of 2010, and with that news, many eyes were
turned away from following this disgraced organization. The President also likes to appear to be
distanced from ACORN and its fraudulent efforts, but to find out what Obama
really supports, you need to just follow the money.
