So I do agree that the election of a more conservative, Republican Congress will cut off their life's blood under any name they use. Or, like you, at least I hope it will.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-7463857823577021752010-03-24T11:22:55.754-04:002010-03-24T11:22:55.754-04:00Lawhawk, The creature that was ACORN is finished, ...Lawhawk, The creature that was ACORN is finished, but apparently its New York and California branches will continue as something else.<br /><br />But keep in mind, what kept this creature alive was the money funneled to it by Congress.

Pelosi and Reid as the Hydra would work, of course they would also work as Cerberus, the two-headed dog that guards the gate to Hades.<br /><br />As for ACORN, they're finished. The New York and California branches broke off and rebranded. The rests of the organization ran out of money and is disbanded -- and they are bitter about it.

I have a sinking feeling they'll re-emerge as another "non-profit" organization with a misleading name that can continue stealing from taxpayers.<br /><br />The other one to add to your list is Harry Reid.
