ACORN-Tied Buffy Wicks from Obama White House in on NEA Propaganda Art Call

Rush Limbaugh is talking right now on his radio show about the widening scandal related to a teleconference call in which the White House used the NEA to push artists to produce pro-Obama art.

The story comes from Patrick Courrielche of Andrew Breitbart’s Big Hollywood.

What’s new here is the proof Courrielche just now revealed that the Obama White House was actually participating in and coordinating the conference call.

It turns out Buffy Wicks, deputy director of President Obama’s White House Office of Public Engagement, was on the teleconference call.

Wicks is a political operative who was worked with ACORN.

My sources in the progressive movement say Wicks handled the Obama campaign in Missouri last year. Obama lost in Missouri and activists in that state and people within the Obama campaign placed the blame for the defeat squarely on her shoulders.

After failing to win Missouri for Obama, Wicks had a very hard time finding a job but somehow she landed a job in the Obama White House. It’s unclear how she did that.

Wicks used to work for Wake Up Wal-Mart (wakeupwalmart.com), which is not a formal affiliate of ACORN but is an ACORN-sponsored spinoff group. The group works very closely with ACORN and is modeled after ACORN’s own anti-Wal-Mart affiliate W*A*R*N* (Wal-Mart Alliance for Reform Now).

Wake Up Wal-Mart entered into a national partnership with ACORN in 2005. In a Wake Up Wal-Mart press release from 2005, ACORN national president Maude Hurd said: “This is a new day in the fight to change Wal-Mart. We have created an unprecedented, bottom-up force for change which will demonstrate why Wal-Mart needs to change now.â€

what is happening is insane. I cannot stop believing that Obama looks to become a dictator, period! You cannot find any of teh radical behavior and words benign and merely an overreaction on teh part of people like me who are not into conspiracy theories. We are witnessing possibly the democratic going so far off teh reservation, overreaching like mad they they are commiting political suicide.
