No Congressional probe of ACORN

June 26, 2009 | ACORN, industry | Comments (1)

Disappointing to say the least.  From the Washington Times:

House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers Jr. has backed off his plan to investigate purported wrongdoing by the liberal activist group ACORN, saying “powers that be” put the kibosh on the idea.

Mr. Conyers, Michigan Democrat, earlier bucked his party leaders by calling for hearings on accusations the Association of Community Organization for Reform Now (ACORN) has committed crimes ranging from voter fraud to a mob-style “protection” racket.

Conyers is probably a member of ACORN anyway so this is not surprising. It is like asking Al Qaeda to prosecute Osama Bin Laden.
