Smoke and mirrors. The two biggest Acorn groups have reopened under new names. Attorney General Eric Holder has gone over Congresses head and continued to fund them.

Baltimore's branch did close. Hey, perhaps the Acorn funding can now pay for health care funding. :hmmm:

ACORN was corrupt. Why this isn't also a victory for liberals is a statement as to the character of some on the left.

ACORN had never been charged with, or found guilty of aiding in the illegal casting of a single vote. Ever. Anywhere.

The fact that the administration which they helped into power has not chosen to prosecute them doesn't mean they aren't as rotten as week old fish Mookie.

In addition to the other replies, I used the word "corrupt" which encompasses far more than simply voter fraud.

Personally I dont want to give them 'my' money.
