"The age of casual Catholicism is over; the age of heroic Catholicism has begun. We can no longer be Catholics by accident, but instead must be Catholics by CONVICTION." ---Fr. Terrence Henry TOR, Franciscan University of Steubenville

US Conference Of Bishops Cease Funding ACORN...Finally!

From The Boston Globe as reported on November 12:
[BALTIMORE - The US Conference of Catholic Bishops is permanently cutting off all funding for ACORN in the wake of an embezzlement scandal and allegations of voter registration fraud and political partisanship.
The national nonprofit, with more than 1,200 local affiliates, attempts to organize low-income people to advocate for improvement in their communities.
Bishop Roger P. Morin of New Orleans said yesterday that the Catholic Campaign for Human Development, an antipoverty program run by the bishops' conference, decided that it could no longer be certain of ACORN's integrity or accountability. The bishops had been giving $1.1 million a year to 41 ACORN affiliates.
"We simply had too many continuing questions and concerns about these serious matters to permit any further funding of ACORN groups," Morin said.
Steve Kest, the executive director of ACORN, said last night that he would wait until he hears from the bishops before making any comment.
Morin said the bishops are also conducting an audit to determine whether any of the Catholic funds were misused by ACORN. So far, he said, there is no evidence that Catholic funds were embezzled.
The Catholic Campaign for Human Development is financed largely through a collection in most dioceses the weekend before Thanksgiving. Morin said the funds will now be disbursed to other groups that use community organizing to combat poverty.

The italicised type was my own addition to draw attention to the $1.1 million the Bishops have been donating to elect Democrats hell-bent on providing abortion-on-demand for any and all females in "trouble." Actually I am sure the Bishops didn't have abortion in mind at all when making such an annual donation. It must have had more to do with empowering people living in economically poor conditions. Or so they assumed.
The Bishops are shutting the barn door after the horses ran out and stole an election. But I suppose it's better late than never. I just hope they do more research on whom they donate to in the future, rather than throw money at what looks good on the surface.

Laura Ingraham: Obama's Ministry Of Truth
[OBAMA'S MINISTRY OF TRUTH: Should Obama win in November, thanks and credit will be in order to his 1984-inspired alteration of the historical record. In only the last few months, we've seen the following: When it was revealed in the "Fight the Smears" section of his website that he was lying about his involvement with ACORN (minimizing an actually long-established partnership), his site quietly scrubbed the falsehoods; when a blogger noticed that Michael Klonsky, an unashamed communist education "reformer" happened to be blogging on Obama's site, any hint of his existence was expunged; after Rev. Wright became a household name for his desire to send America to Hell, Obama's site suddenly stopped boasting of his involvement in the campaign; when a video of young California kids appeared singing Obama's glories in a style reminiscent of North Korea, that too was wiped from the e-book of history.
With such a cavalier approach to information control, what exactly we know about Obama -- really and truly -- is harder to discern every day.]

ACORN Rotten From Treetop to Roots
[Pushed to meet daily quotas and bullied by bosses if they didn't, Ohio ACORN workers faked voter registrations, signed up people more than once, and even paid off registrants to keep from being fired, its canvassers told The Post.
"Every day, there was pressure on us. Every single day," said Teshika Elder, a Cleveland single mom of three who worked for ACORN this summer.
"We had meetings every morning where they'd go over your quota; they'd yell at you if you were low," said Elder, 21. "They'd sit us down and say if you didn't do better, they'd suspend you. They'd say, 'Try harder next time,' [and] if you didn't get it, you'd be fired."]
Read the rest of the article and learn all about the pitifully corrupt ACORN HERE.
What do normal people who have proper values do when pressured by their bosses to commit illegal acts?
1) Call the police
2) Call the home office and report misbehavior.
3) Quit and get another damn job. It's only office work and probably doesn't pay much anyway. You CAN work somewhere else, you know. Swallow your pride and drive a truck for a living. It pays more and you can sleep at night. I did.
The people running ACORN are corrupt. The people hired by the people running ACORN are corruptible. That's one of the reasons they were hired. They are either people with a liberal mindset who believe in advancing liberal causes by any means necessary, or they simply have no spine and live in constant fear of being replaced. I know I shouldn't judge too harshly. Sometimes these things sneak up on people...gradually. But when a person realizes what they have become, it's time to reform...unless they have no fortitude. Welcome to ACORN.
Barack Hussein Obama has close ties to ACORN. Google Obama and ACORN and see. I'll save you the trouble. See Kurtz's NRO column HERE.
