Reminder that ACORN is a non-profit organisation which enfranchises low-income voters. Its employees tendered some fraudulent voter registrations - which were reported without prompting to the relevent authorities - and has since then become a sustained target of abuse for those racist dead-shits who can apparently recognise a sinking campaign when they see one. Since the McCain ticket has absolutely nothing else going for it, the hysteria surrounding this organisation has not been censured and this sort of bullshit is the inevitable consequence:
| quote: | Henderson-James also provided reporters with examples of emails sent to ACORN employees since the Republican barrage of allegations began. In one, an ACORN manager in Ohio is told that she is "going to have her life ended."
Another refers to "corrupt ni**er Muslims." A third, with the subject line "You blue gums," says, "You blue gums are not going to steal the election. All of you porch monkeys need to go back to Africa."
ACORN, a membership organization, works largely in lower-income and minority communities but engages in outreach to all demographics, including white, African-American, Hispanic, elderly, and college student groups.
Kettenring said ACORN has asked the McCain campaign to take steps to reduce the threats of violence but that the campaign has not yet responded to that request. |
The McCain campaign has corralled a lot of hostility in recent weeks, but its refusal to even acknowledge this agression - much less condemn it - stands as a pretty damning testament to the paucity of ideas it has for the future direction of the US.
Yeah, I'm going to enjoy watching these fuckers lose.
