Yes according to the Committe on Oversight and Government Reform.
You don't have to read very long to get the answer to the the question posed in the title. The second sentence of the first paragraph of the Executive Summary says it all...


Both structurally and operationally, ACORN hides behind a paper wall of nonprofit corporate protections to conceal a criminal conspiracy on the part of its directors, to launder federal money in order to pursue a partisan political agenda and to manipulate the American electorate.



PDF file, long read but worth it.

About time.

It's not about identifying who they are, what they represent or the extent they will go to in order to bleed the American taxpayer for all they are worth. Problem really is what in the world can you do about ACORN when the President of the United States is backing them?

Include him in the indictment as a co-conspirator?

Let's not forget the Democrats in the 111th Congress. They are the ones that voted billions of taxpayer's money to this criminal organization.

MY God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Has this been verified ?

Snooped ?

Yes, I did read it

All federal funds need to be cut. Since ACORN is such a supporter of the Dems, and the Dems are such supporters of raising taxes. I think it would be only fitting if it were the IRS that takes them down and indicts all of their leadership and affiliates.

i find it hard to believe they were also getting money while we had a republican president and rep congress. They've been up to their crap for a long time. I wonder why people are just now starting to complain about acorn.

Can not even believe that ALL OF OUR REPRESENTITIVE DIDNT KNOW ABOUT THIS!!!!!!!!

Check the published date.....

If I get a verification, it will be presented to each of them requesting an answer..

ACORN is surely a huge issue but since we are choosing not to forget things, the people in any government office do not elect themselves. The American people put them there without fully understanding what the candidates represented and a false vision of "HOPE". Until the judgement of the American people changes and they take the time to understand that casting a vote is a huge responsibility we are in trouble. It's not just about what you see on TV.

i sure am glad these suckers wont have anything to do with the census. i bet some of their members will be involved but not as much as they had planned.

mustafa,

Agreed, however,

Dosent it bother you that they were being given their duties by the Census Bureau (Now being led and directed by the White House)?

And incidentlly, check the history of the President, his claim that his management experiance was as an organizer of neighborhood activists--ACORN ? BINGO!!!!!-

im not sure why you guys think i support obama. I just choose to look at things from both sides. I was very disturbed about acorn during the elections, and even more disturbed when i heard they would be working on the census. The problem i have is that acorn has been around for a long time and nobody cared to complain about them until last year.

I think what Acorn really does is just now coming to peoples attention. Nobody really knew what they did and that's the way ACORN liked it.
