ACORN received an early Christmas present this holiday season when Barack Obama’s Attorney General, Eric Holder released a decision allowing ACORN to continue to receivefederal funds - despite a pesky law enacted earlier this year which bars ACORN's access to federal funds.

The bipartisan intent of Congress was clear – no more taxpayer dollars should flow to ACORN.

This Administration continues to look for every excuse possible to circumvent the intent of Congress. Taxpayers should not have to continue subsidizing a criminal enterprise that helped Barack Obama get elected president.

The politicization of the Justice Department to pay back one of the president's political allies is shameful and reeks of old-fashioned cronyism.

For months, Democratic committee Chairmen have refused to hold hearings on ACORN.

Yesterday, as the Ranking Republican on the House Oversight and Reform Committee, together with the Ranking Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, I hosted a forum on ACORN to bring light to the numerous additional whistleblowers and new documents that continue to paint the full picture of an organization built to garner political power and pay favors to the friends of powerful politicians.

At the forum, whistleblower Anita MonCrief, and other witnesses like the Indiana Secretary of State explained how ACORN systematically exploits low-income Americans, pressuring them enroll in a membership scheme which debits $10 per month from their bank account, often immediately after contacting them to, ostensibly to provide advice on their troubled home loans.

The witnesses also detailed a pattern of partisan political behavior, all of which contradicts ACORN's assertions that it does not use federal funds or tax-deductible charitable donations for partisan politicking.

Democrats refuse to hold ACORN accountable, but I won’t rest until we know the whole truth about ACORN's illicit activities.

Instead of Investigating the Fraud, Congress Would Prosecute the Hacker

Taking lessons from global warming scientists who blackball and marginalize any scientist whose evidence doesn't concur with their own "science"(agenda), Barbara Boxer wants to kill the messenger!


Danes caught fiddling their carbon credits. (Hat tip: Philip Stott) Carbon trading is the Emperor’s New Clothes of international finance. It was invented by none other than Ken Lay, whose Enron would currently be one of the prime beneficiaries in the global alternative energy market, if it hadn’t been shown to be (nearly) as fraudulent as the current AGW scam. It is a licence to fleece, cheat and rob. Still, jolly embarrassing for the Danes to get caught red handed, what with their hosting a conference shortly in which the world’s leaders will try, straight-faced, to persuade us that carbon emissions trading is the only viable way of defeating ManBearPig.
