[Vision2020] ACORN: Change You Can Believe In

[No Weatherman]

Chas,

You missed the first line.

Why did the state have to "raid" ACORN's office if ACORN turned itself

Answer that question and you'll know why you should not believe
ACORN's press release or the official public position. Do you really
think they're going to admit that they're frauds?
