ACORN just can't catch a break -- though that's not a bad thing, in my opinion. These people are criminals and need to be put in prison and their organization crushed.
California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is urging a "full investigation" by California Attorney General Jerry Brown into ACORN's California activities (1).
Fox News reported last night that Louisiana is starting an investigation into ACORN's finances. This is on top of the investigation they have going for voter fraud (2).
And they are still under investigation in several states, such as Ohio, where in Cuyahoga County for their activities before the November presidential election (3).
UPDATE (4):
Minnesota's governor ordered his agencies to stop all state funding to ACORN, unless it was illegal to do so.
Several Republican senators are asking the FBI to step in and investigate not just possible criminal activities but also whether ACORN itself is a criminal enterprise. FBI Director Robert Mueller said it is the kind of stuff they would "look at".
Republican lawmakers are also urging the Internal Revenue Service to sever ties with group. "We are aware of recent events, and we are conducting a thorough review of our relationship with ACORN," the IRS said.
Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is calling for an investigation by the House. Shit, ACORN, when Nancy Pelosi starts to distance herself from you, you know you're in trouble.
