Acorn had nothing to do with any voter fraud or election fraud
You guys accused ACORN of doing all kinds of things, all found to be completely unjustified
Are you really an idiot? The FBI has documentation. Idiot....

What's the point?
I'll give you credit for asking your ideologic adversary to explain, but that's about as far as that credit will go. Beyond that, you are as closed-minded as any other Repug-droid, bluering. Kool-aid comes in both blue & red flavor, my friend.

Ba ba bluey, et al, we know you ignored it bitd...let's dredge for a sec.
http://www.commondreams.org/headlines03/0828-08.htm
The head of a company vying to sell voting machines in Ohio told Republicans in a recent fund-raising letter that he is "committed to helping Ohio deliver its electoral votes to the president next year."
The Aug. 14 letter from Walden O'Dell, chief executive of Diebold Inc. - who has become active in the re-election effort of President Bush - prompted Democrats this week to question the propriety of allowing O'Dell's company to calculate votes in the 2004 presidential election.
(not that you'll read teh rest, I'm sure)
O'Dell?
Ya, this guy...

Fatty said Yes, if you're not a Republican, you want the government to guarantee your wages, retirement, health care, access to climbing, etc.
And you just want to ensure access to cheap labor, exploitable resources and the perpetuation of a Zionist state through any military means necessary (or unnecessary).

JElezarian -
You were questioning my critique of the flat tax and our current tax system which taxes work at a higher rate than investment. Here is an article that I was looking for regarding this issue:

Buffett blasts system that lets him pay less tax than secretary
Tom Bawden in New York
Warren Buffett, the third-richest man in the world, has criticised the US tax system for allowing him to pay a lower rate than his secretary and his cleaner.
Speaking at a $4,600-a-seat fundraiser in New York for Senator Hillary Clinton, Mr Buffett, who is worth an estimated $52 billion (£26 billion), said: “The 400 of us [here] pay a lower part of our income in taxes than our receptionists do, or our cleaning ladies, for that matter. If you’re in the luckiest 1 per cent of humanity, you owe it to the rest of humanity to think about the other 99 per cent.”
Mr Buffett said that he was taxed at 17.7 per cent on the $46 million he made last year, without trying to avoid paying higher taxes, while his secretary, who earned $60,000, was taxed at 30 per cent. Mr Buffett told his audience, which included John Mack, the chairman of Morgan Stanley, and Alan Patricof, the founder of the US branch of Apax Partners, that US government policy had accentuated a disparity of wealth that hurt the economy by stifling opportunity and motivation.
In happier news Buffett along with Bill Gates urged other billionaires to literally give half their money away.

Yes, if you're not a Republican, you want the government to guarantee your wages, retirement, health care, access to climbing, etc. Take a look at socialist Europe, they're in a steep decline and having to give everything back.
You've turned that around 180 degrees. It's the corporate Republicans who want the government to guarantee their income. Don't you read the news?

Bob, read the story;
Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, announced today that it has obtained documents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) related to the 2007 investigation and arrest of eight St. Louis, Missouri, workers from the “community organization” Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) for violation of election laws and voter fraud.
from here;
http://www.judicialwatch.org/news/2010/jun/judicial-watch-obtains-new-fbi-documents-regarding-acorn-voter-fraud-investigation
and;
In addition to the hand-written notes, the documents also include copies of the arrest warrants, criminal case cover sheets and court documents. In April 2008, all eight ACORN employees involved in the scandal pled guilty to voter registration fraud.
Nobody was convicted??? ACORN is innocent of any wrongdoing???
