Obama "Community Organizer" in Chicago with Acorn

Mr. Obama, who got his start as a Chicago "community organizer" at Acorn's side. In 1992 he led voter registration efforts as the director of Project Vote, which included Acorn. This past November, he lauded Acorn's leaders for being "smack dab in the middle" of that effort. Mr. Obama also served as a lawyer for Acorn in 1995, in a case against Illinois to increase access to the polls.

During his tenure on the board of Chicago's Woods Fund, that body funneled more than $200,000 to Acorn. More recently, the Obama campaign paid $832,000 to an Acorn affiliate. The campaign initially told the Federal Election Commission this money was for "staging, sound, lighting." It later admitted the cash was to get out the vote.

This issue or other issues won't matter with the supporters of Obama they don't care how they get change as long as a Democrat is in the White House to support there Democrats in the House and Senate, and to push there Democratic Idea's and agendas. Trust me when I say this if Obama is elected the corruption of the Democratic Party will be front and center for all to see, and the 2010 mid term elections will make it a lot easier for Republicans to rebuild and start to take control of the House and Senate.
