And you are incapable of criticizing anyone but the right even after this:



You wanted links, I gave them to you but you automatically discredit anything that doesn't come from the left and accuse me of lies. What's in those video's is unchanged.

Hack away boy.

You post links of employees falsifying voter registrations to garner unearned pay by defrauding Acorn. False registrations Acorn flags before submitting. My salute to you as king of the Hacks and just generally credulous.

Hey remember when i made fun of you for falling for a fake onion style news story? LOL. Come on, use legit sources, you are such a stereotypical rightwing dumbass.

You have evidence to the contrary? Oh ya, you never have evidence, just insults.

You're still doing it. You seem incapable of honest and intelligent discussion. In my very first post in this thread, I noted, "ACORN was certainly a flawed organization ..." That does not justify the lies you spread, however.

Pot Kettle there champ, Pot Kettle.

Acorn was yet another corrupt POS, good riddance.

Whatever you say, dear. You're just another butt-hurt nutter who can't distinguish between feelings and fact. I understand you've been brainwashed into believing ACORN was corrupt. As I already showed, however, your feelings do not match reality. Yes, as I've acknowledged, ACORN had problems and was not managed well. That's nowhere close to matching the continual shrieking about election fraud we heard from the RNC deception machine.

A new government report may help restore ACORN’s tarnished reputation but its release comes as the group is preparing to shutter its doors.

The preliminary findings of a Government Accountability Office (GAO) investigation indicate the controversial grass-roots organization did not misuse the more than $40 million in taxpayer funds it received between 2005-2009.

I see all the usual right wing trolls continue to believe their lies and fantasies. At least you and Incorruptable are consistently wrong and bigoted. I guess that is a plus in your book.

Have all the Acorn employees had their convictions overturned? And the "made up BS" I saw were the convictions and office raids I saw on the National News.

Why are some of y'all trying to use facts to argue with Matt1970. You can't use facts to argue with someone who is out of touch with reality.

What color is the sky in that reality you have there? There are still a lot of people that got convicted and even did time. How many of those convictions have been overturned? Make sure in your reality you are considering that when you think ACORN has been vindicated.

So something like 1/100 of 1% of employees do something unethical and illegal to defraud their company. The company self reports or fully cooperates with investigations in this situation. And the company is at fault? So you're saying all Catholics are guilty of child rape? Or all Christians are pieces of shit because Fred Phelps and family are? I would ask if you're really this idiotic, but I already know the answer.

This is pretty much par for the course with all young, republicans. Not terribly bright and willing to consume and regurgitate any lies and bullshit his handlers have fed him. Thankfully there are enough non-retards growing up in this country to cancel out these kids out. There is still hope...

So, now that there is proof (O'Keefe admitted it), you still don't believe it. Wow. True ignorance is bliss I guess.

How do you feel about Nathan Sproul? He is a shady GOP dealer, but that doesn't stop the GOP from continuing to hire him for shady deals. So he is a known shady person, but the GOP gladly uses him and his company. Fine outstanding morals, wouldn't you say?

His latest was in Florida....where his company was only registering GOP voters, and several staff members were told they couldn't register Democrats.

I guess that is OK to you? How do you feel about his company? Shouldn't it be subjected to the same ridicule that you incorrectly and ignorantly heap on ACORN? Shouldn't you be posting and telling us how this company needs to be shamed nationally?

I guess this is all OK to you right?

EDIT: LOL, looks like I was right, Matt1970 has a HUGE double standard....

Link

He of course is defending Sproul here, saying nothing to see, nothing compared to ACORN. Man, that is truly amazing ignorance on display by Matt1970. So ACORN is evil, but this guy is awesome. What's next by you? The sun orbits the earth instead?

And of course, his post is as usual trhroughtly debunked with facts and reason, which of course meant that Matt1970 ignored it, since it's factual evidence. Faith based facts FTW in his case I guess.

Maximum powers to the deflectors. You did not debunk anything, you deflected. Major deflection. Your defense of Acorn is that you can find worst cases. Excellent job. Also you are welcome to go back through my posts and count all the times I defended O'Keefe. I will give you a hint, it's less than 1. You are also welcome to count how many times I claimed anyone was awesome like you claim but you will arrive at the same number.

I didn't deflect. I pointed out correctly your appalling lack of logic and your proud adherence to your partisan views.

ACORN, like Sproul's company, had members that were convicted of voter registration fraud. You said so in the thread I posted. Double standard much?

But in your mind, Sproul is fine, and ACORN is the devil. Funny how your double standard is on display for all to see.

Once again, facts gets in the way of your fantasy world.

You're still deflecting. This thread isn't about Sproul. Do you not know what deflect means? Look through my comments as see if I ever said Sproul is fine.

Ya, those libraries, DMVs, Post Offices and elections centers are a bitch to find.

When I registered to vote about a dozen years ago, I first went to the post office, nope told me you can't register there. I then on a suggestion tried a library, nope can't register there either. Election center, there isn't one anywhere near me that I'm aware of or could find. Ah, the DMV though, that turned out to be the place. But I only did that when I renewed my license, and who the hell is going to wait 3 hours in line to register to vote when they don't need to renew their license or will renew their license and pay the fee associated with it when they don't need to?

In the end, it was by no means easy for me to register to vote. I was a part time employed college student with a decent amount of privilege and free time and it was a giant pain in the ass to register. Now imagine if you're a working poor or lower middle class?

Though considering who I'm talking to you probably assume that a working poor is in an abandoned building smoking crack while plotting what next they're going to steal from a Republican.
