Isolation is lonely. Except when its in numbers.


At what point does an isolated incident become part of a larger pattern? If you're ACORN, or as I like to call them, A Completely Obama Run Network, apparently in perpetuity.

They're baaaaack. Well they never went away. But last week seven people were charged by the Allegheny County, District Attorney with 51 charges of forgergies and other illegality. Also last week in Las Vegas, there were 26 charges of compensation for registration of votes and 13 charges of being a principle in the incident. Illegal schmelegal! If only there were an attorney in the house that could represent these clowns…..

Curiosity got the best of me, so I ran a quick news search on all the ACORN articles that reference the term isolated. Just that term. Nothing on "denial" or "refuted", just isolated. I was curious as that seemed to be their go-term venacular when referring to all the alleged voter registration fraud.

So here's the skinny:

In the past two years, these are all the articles I came up with (and keep in mind, these reference different isolated incidents):


  • From ACORN, a mighty GOP fight Politico.com May 9, 2009
  • Catholic bishops cut off ACORN funding The Associated Press November 12, 2008
  • Hardly historic fraud; Editorials; McCain's warning on ACORN is oberblown; Editorial The Register-Guard (Eugene, OR)
  • Accused Registration Group Has No Voter Drives Here; ACORN Engaging in Fraud, Republicans Claim The Washington Post October 18, 2008
  • ACORN falls close to chad territory The Australian October 17, 2008
  • ACORN sign-ups here seem legitimate; Nearly 40% of vote forms denied, but registrar sees no intentional foul The Houston Chronicle October 16, 2008
  • Party is over for ACORN, Democrats Columbia Daily Tribune (Missouri) October 3, 2008
  • ACORN feud over suspicious voter cards The Miami Herald September 25, 2008

Eight. Some may say--is that all?! What's the big deal? The big deal is that most media outlets weren't covering this story. Some were even told to "kill the story" (NYT-go figure). How can you allege these are isolated when you continually use that specific term to refute alleged fraud in a new state or city? Apparently they don't understand the meaning of the word. Can we use some of that taxpayer money we're shelling out to get them Hooked-on-Phonics?

Let's put our game-face on with these scumbag lunatics. The new scapegoat in all of this: Republicans. They are just sore losers. Nothing to see here--let's move on! Let's not pay any attention to the fact President Thinned Skinned and the dipshits in Congress have made them eligible for $8 billion more in taxpayer dollars ("B" as in Barry. Or "B" as in barium enema. Actually I think they are one in the same).
