Aren't these the same people who called up Planned Parenthood offices and told PP workers that they wanted to make a donation, and have it earmarked for the abortion of black fetuses? Not a stanuch conservative?

“James O’Keefe, one of the two filmmakers, said he went after ACORN because it registers minorities likely to vote against Republicans: “Politicians are getting elected single-handedly due to this organization,” O’Keefe told The Washington Post. “No one was holding this organization accountable.”

..not a staunch conservative?

A graduate of Morton Blackwell's Leadership Institute…not a staunch conservative?

I love it “The industry that keeps us safe..” — hadn't seen that.

We have the largest defense budget in the world, larger than all others combined, and we have to hire private contractors to protect our embassies..

Good point Merkin_Muffley. Juan Williams (for once) asked that of S. Hannity on F News just the other day…Juan Williams: Why don't you go after Blackwater? Why don't you go after the defense industry that rips off our country?

Guess what Hannity's reply was?

WILLIAMS: But I will say something to you. You're a big guy. How come you're not going after people who take billions of dollars? Why don't you go after Blackwater? Why don't you go after the defense industry that rips off our country? You know, these are people…

HANNITY: The industry that keeps us safe.

WILLIAMS: Why don't you go after Wall Street?

HANNITY: Look, how about we go after the corrupt radicals in the Obama administration?

Surprised?.. I hope not.

“Some faith-based leaders voiced support on Monday for President Obama’s budget proposal, applauding it for expanding program funding for low-income and poor Americans.”

ACORN hires the people it helps. I for one am not too surprised to learn that they would have such an attitude. Also not included in Fox's report is that the pimp & ho were kicked out of more of ACORN's offices than they were welcomed in.

Anyway now that Congress has moved so boldly on a government contractor who offered advice to pretend criminals, I am interested to see what happens now to say, government contractors who killed people, sold weapons on the black market in Iraq, stole billions. No, I am dreaming, we renewed their contracts.

Black – something.

Organizations like Catholic charities were willing to provide adoption services and the like until the law suits from various socially progressive persons who wanted to force the Catholics to provide services which conflict with their religious views. Catholics have in some instances decided to stop providing social services when they were sued to demand that they provide adoption services to homosexual couples, or birth control. The progressives don't seem to have been too concerned about the ending of social services to the poor when the providers were certain religious groups.

President Bush wanted to try to facilitate this, but, of course, it was seen as unacceptable for religious organizations to receive the money, since this was a conflict of the separation of church and state. I agree, it would be nice to see the Republicans do something to provide for the needy, but in fairness, they have tried – and been shot down because of the religious issue. I don't think we would be as well served trying to re-invent the wheel as we would be in allowing effective non-profit groups to serve the needy. However, unless we get some sort of legal exemption from the conflict of church and state issue, I just don't see it happening easily.
