Acorn and Obama -- one more time
Stanley Kurtz, a careful and thorough reporter/writer, has tracked Acorn back to its sources and through all its machinations during the Clinton Administration and written numerous articles on what he has discovered in the past. What occurred over the years is shocking, alarming and discouraging. Most of what Acorn does and has been doing tracks back to the community organizer of all community organizers, Saul Alinsky. Alinsky was the senior thesis subject of none other than Hillary Clinton, who greatly admired his work and thoughts. Another disciple of Alinsky's is Barack Obama, whose close ties to Acorn date to the days before he attended Harvard Law school. Kurtz has written two books on this subject and along with a few others like Thomas Sowell and Walter Williams, really understands what happened to cause the financial meltdown that cost millions of people billions of dollars in home, 401k, IRA, and stock values. This mother of all bubbles and devastating aftermath needs to be understood by all who are interested in righting the ship and putting it back on a safe course. To date, the word is hardly out at all. This is largely because the liberals in Congress and in the media were complicit in causing the collapse and are simply not interested in getting at the bottom of what actually happened. The whole thing is a national disgrace and unless the corruption that caused it is exposed, it will happen again and it's hard to imagine how this country could survive two such catastrophes back to back. Kurtz's articlein the NYPost (naturally no liberal publications would give this coverage the light of day) is a reasonably good summary of events.
