The Dupree Report

It’s not enough to have people think that you are calm, cool and collected but to outright lie about your association with ACORN is 100% disrespectful to all the viewers of last night’s debate.  I mean honestly, the way you smoothly sidestep the question with your already determined made up answer is one for the ages but needs to be addressed and shouted to the entire world. 

The only involvement I’ve had with ACORN was I represented them alongside the U.S. Justice Department in making Illinois implement a motor voter law that helped people get registered at DMVs.  Now, with respect to ACORN, ACORN is a community organization. Apparently what they’ve done is they were paying people to go out and register folks, and apparently some of the people who were out there didn’t really register people, they just filled out a bunch of names.  It had nothing to do with us. We were not involved

Mr Obama, your campaign that you are currently running gave $832,000 for lighting and site selection which was originally reported by the WorldNetDaily earlier this year.  Your involvement with ACORN was more than just a motor-voter bill that you stated on last night. 

Ladies and Gentlemen, ACORN was very active in Senator Obama’s state of Chicago and with him also.  He was invited to help trade ACORN activists in the early 90s.  While he served on the Woods Fund (a Chicago Non-profit group), he sent millions of dollars to ACORN and it’s affiliated groups.  This happened during the time that Obama was director of the Woods Fund somewhere around 1999 – 2002.  He also received upwards to $6,000 for his service between 1999 and 2000.

During this time he served with American Terrorist William Ayers on that same Fund and actively sought ACORN’s endorsement for his local campaigns during the same period.  Obama has also stated:

I’ve been fighting alongside ACORN on issues you care about my entire career. Even before I was an elected official, when I ran Project Vote voter registration drives in Illinois, ACORN was smack dab in the middle of it, and we appreciate your work….

Mr Obama, it’s more than just a small involvement.

Now ACORN is in major trouble due to the bogus voter registrations that it’s been accomplishing over the last few months in the battleground states.  The FBI is investigating whether the community activist group ACORN helped foster voter registration fraud around the nation before the presidential election. A senior law enforcement official confirmed the investigation to The Associated Press on Thursday.

A second senior law enforcement official says the FBI was looking at results of recent raids on ACORN offices in several states for any evidence of a coordinated national scam.  Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity because Justice Department regulations forbid discussing ongoing i nvestigations particularly so close to an election.  ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, says it has registered 1.3 million young people, minorities and poor and working-class voters – most of whom tend to be Democrats.  Hopefully the FBI will be able to get to the bottom of this situation and very quickly.
