ACORN sliding toward bankruptcy?

To some, ACORN has itself to blame for its problems. “ACORN was not a group that politely sought redress … it was loud and brash and conveyed an attitude that the righteousness of its mission justified whatever tactics were expedient in the battle of The People vs. The Man,”

Uh , Exactly .
when your "Empowerment" overshadows being right , and leads to abuses that affect normal people , it becomes a major problem !

The indelible images of ACORN workers helping a faux pimp and prostitute set up a tax shelter for a brothel certainly played into the advocacy group’s slide toward bankruptcy, though its problems began long before last year’s scandal.

The New York Times is reporting that officials at the housing advocacy group will hold a teleconference this weekend to announce a bankruptcy filing. The group is reeling from a disbanding of at least 15 of its 30 state chapters in recent weeks, including the one in Maryland that served as the set for one of the most outrageous videos produced by conservative reporters James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles, and led to government agencies like the Census Bureau severing ties to ACORN....

But a looming question now will be whether the Obama administration can save the organization. BigGovernment.com reports that the administration has quietly begun replacing payments to ACORN after a New York judge ruled that the Congressional de-funding of the organization was not constitutional.

Actually the way it was defunded is the problem , the money still could easily be taken from them with a simple re-wording of the reasons why !
