Yes,most SEIU are part of ACORN. They violate election laws regularly...were indicted in 13 states at the end of Nov election. This is a very DUMB and corrupt group. But ACORN leaders were in cahoots with Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, & Franklin Raines of Fannie & Freddie fame! The ACORN leaders would hammer banks to make loans that all involved knew COULD NOT be repaid. I saw the video of Maxine defending "why Franklin Raines is doing a wonderful job...he's allowing people to have homes WHO WOULDN'T be able to own OTHERWISE !"""" that pretty much tells the story !! If that wasn't enough then Dem Congress' "Xmas Tree Stimulus' was loaded with in addition to payback to Hollywood, gave giant PAYBACK for their ASSISTANCE in making the election happen....thru any means necessary. That's acorn. This Administration is CURRENTLY giving them public funds as well. (well, we wouldn't want these poor inner-city PERMANENTLY UNemployed to do without, now would we). We PAY them for their corruption !! I work too hard for my pay to transfer to them....VERY UNjust.

Good post, Bob.

Here is a good YouTube segment on ACORN and the findings of US Congressman Issa (from San Diego) and his commission.
