Wow, we’ve seen some bad press on ACORN lately, haven’t we, boys and girls?

ACORN, which stands for Acronyms Created Outta Radical Nonsense, is a taxpayer-funded effort to mobilize the under-served voters and work for social justice. As you know, “social justice” is a euphemism for “getting something that belongs to someone else.”

First the voter registration irregularities, which to be fair were allegedly detected and reported by ACORN management, which should convince you that ACORN personnel are actually an honest and ethical bunch.

Then followed the discovery that ACORN employees are a dishonest and unethical bunch for counseling some plants how to scam the system to get tax evasion advice for their (fictional) child sex slaves. But ACORN points out that it was only Baltimore staff who seem to have no moral or ethical compass.

And evidently Washington D.C. as well. What could go worse?

Well, you could actually get fired by a major client, which is what happened when the US Census Bureau told them to go scratch. The charge? That ACORN’s inexcusable and apparently unending public shenanigans have risked engendering distrust for the 2010 Census. Oh, that.

Say, did not our President work for them? In fact, wasn’t ACORN where he supposedly attained all his community organizing experience that so qualified him for the presidency over a military hero with extensive foreign policy experience and a governor with extensive financial and administrative experience? Surely he is outraged, embarrassed, or at least stunned by the news!

Evidently he has the same response as he did to the firing of rabid communist and conspiracy pundit Van Jones. Or the investigation of his relationship with major felon Tony Rezko. Or the blowup over the Irreverent Jeremiah Wright, or on his relationship with confessed terrorist Bill Ayers or…wow. For a guy who talks so much (News Item: Obama Not Addressing Nation Tuesday Night), he says very little.

The Czar of Muscovy

Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
