Palin: Obama must ‘rein in’ ACORN
By ANDY BARR | 10/14/08 2:27 PM EDT Text Size:

Sarah Palin speaks to supporters at a rally at in Richmond, Va., on Monday.

Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin suggested Tuesday that Barack Obama shares responsibility for recent reports of voter fraud conducted by the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now.

“Obama has a responsibility to rein in ACORN,” Palin said during an interview with conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh.

Palin said the group is responsible for the “unconscionable situation we are facing now with voter fraud” and attacked the Obama campaign for not addressing the problem after the McCain campaign sent a letter to the Democratic camp urging action against voter fraud in September.

Shortly before Palin went on the air, the Obama campaign e-mailed around its response, dated Sept. 23, characterizing the McCain campaign’s concern as “a starkly political maneuver to deflect attention from the reality of the suppression strategies pursued by national, state and Republican Party committees.”

8. Palin.... ACORN Alone Has More Support Than You Do...

Now if only you were as honest as they are as a pro-democratic organization.

[cascadiance]

9. ACORN should reply if it is NOW the law they should hold back registrations, TEAR UP THE GOP ones!

Do what their registration organizations have been doing and tear up the Republican registrations and claim they think that they might have been fraudulent. If the government doesn't accept their warnings on the ones they think are fraudulent, but say they have to withhold them instead, then withhold the Republican registrations they have!!! Would serve those bastards right!

14. So she used a meme/frame originally applied to her, in retaliation?

Excellent. Keep it coming, lipstick.

16. NO, Obama doesn't need to reign in ACORN.

What needs to be done if anything is for Palin and the dim wits that follow her to be educated on what the law is and how ACORN is following it as well as how the McSame/Palin campaign is distorting the truth and have lied to smear a good grass roots organization.

18. He's not a part of ACORN. He has his own people registering folks.

They're not his to rein in.

[EFerrari]

19. ACORN has done nothing wrong but register a bunch of poor voters, most of them black.

That's their real crime.

22. Hey, little miss sassy pants!

Obama doesn't have to do one fucking thing about ACORN.

You, on the other hand, need to shut your fucking mouth, you fucking LIAR.

23. Palin should reign in her Alaskan Independence Party instead of

encouraging that party in their effort to make Alaska an independent nation.

24. ACORN is clearly VERY DANGEROUS ...

... dangerous to the sorry-ass GOP and their "have-mores" hopes of completely destroying America.
