Democrats Want Bailout Bill To Help Fund Political Left-Wing Group

According to The Politico, one objection of the House Republican leadership to the bailout bill is that it includes forcing tax payers “to bankroll a slush fund” for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). ACORN is considered to be a left-wing group that is an ally of the Democratic Party. It is controversial and has been involved in scandals – including “fraudulent voter registration activities on behalf of Democratic candidates.”

Why would an emergency economic bailout bill, which we are told is for the relief of the current business crisis, contain a provision giving money to a political group of community organizations? The Democrats appear to be only interested in how they can use the economic crisis to write a bailout bill that is focused on helping the Democrats rather than the nation.

This is another reason why I support term limits for US Senators and Congressmen. The American people are hurting and the people in Washington are more interested in the next election than developing an economic plan that would really work.
