Thread: Meet the ACORN Eleven ~ Senators that voted to defend

Meet the ACORN Eleven

Earlier this week, the Senate voted to eliminate ACORN funding from two of its annual appropriations bills. Yet despite numerous reports of fraud and corruption, eleven Senators voted to defend this criminal enterprise. Meet the ACORN Eleven:

Daniel Akaka (D-HI)
Jeff Bingaman (D-NM)
Roland Burris (D-IL)
Robert Casey (D-PA)
Dick Durbin (D-IL)
Diane Feinstein (D-CA)
Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY)
Tom Harkin (D-IA)
Patrick Leahy (D-VT)
Bernie Sanders (I-VT)
Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI)

If you've had enough of ACORN and want Congress to end all taxpayer funding for it, sign the national petition to end ACORN.

Those senators the first to take out.. their vote proves they are eaten up by corruption, money laundering, voter fraud and everything else you can think of that ACORN will do to keep a maggot in the Congress.

We need a hit list of those scourge need to be removed from the Congress immediately. The Federal Government is useless...we need to give up on our attempt to cleanse them... we have to work on the states and those ACORN yes votes are the first maggots need to get voted out of office. After them, hopefully the other maggots in Congress will fall.

Here's the link to sign the National Petition to End ACORN:
