Actions have consequences. The ACORN situation is no exception. One consequence is the Senate's vote to defund ACORN. Now it's the House's turn. By a 345-75 tally, the House voted to cut all federal funding for ACORN. Three no votes of worthy mention were Jesse Jackson Jr., Bobby Rush, and Jan Schakowsky. You can always count on a Chicago Democrat to vote to continue funding corruption and criminal activity.
Here are 11 folks who were gutless:
The present votes:
Hastings (FL)
Watt
And not voting:
Abercrombie
Barrett (SC)
Clarke
Connolly (VA)
Costa
Frank (MA)
McHugh
Nunes
This bears repeating: ACORN is a institution that must be shut down to preserve this country. This vote is a positive step in that direction. (HT Michelle Malkin & Big Government):
