    Yeah, and here's the DA who came to this conclusion:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_J._Hynes

    Here's all I need to know: Now in his fifth term, Hynes, a Democrat, was first elected to office in 1989. After working for the Legal Aid Society, he joined the Kings County District Attorney's office in 1969, where he served as an Assistant District Attorney.

    Take a look at what the Legal Aid Society is:

    I'd bet if anyone were to dig just a little, they'd find links between ACORN and the Legal Aid Society... not surprising this guy didn't see what everyone else saw.

    An ACORN by Any Other Name Still Smells Like an ACORN, Critics Say

    By Stephen Clark
    - FOXNews.com

    Rep. Darrell Issa, the top Republican on the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, who led an investigation into the group, said ACORN's assertion that it is closing is just another scheme designed to its hands on taxpayer funds.


    In this photo taken, March 12, 2010, in Chicago, Michael Shea, Executive Director of Affordable Housing Centers of America, formally known as ACORN Housing poses next to the organization's new sign. (AP)

    If it looks like an ACORN and it acts like an ACORN ...
    Republicans say they know an ACORN when they see it, and just because the community activist organization says it's disbanding, that doesn't mean it's gone.

    Only problem is some of what's posted above and how they reinvent themselves possibly with Soros money.


    Court won't hear ACORN lawsuit over gov't funding


    WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court won't hear an appeal from ACORN, the activist group driven to ruin by scandal and financial woes, over being banned from getting federal funds.
    The high court on Monday refused to review a federal court's decision to uphold Congress's ban on federal funds for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.
    Congress cut off ACORN's federal funding last year in response to allegations the group engaged in voter registration fraud and embezzlement and violated the tax-exempt status of some of its affiliates by engaging in partisan political activities.
    ACORN sued, but the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New York City upheld the action. The high court refused to hear its appeal.
    The case is ACORN v. United States, 10-1068.
