"This election is about race"
I was at the gym this morning and had forgotten my earphones. So I w as scanning a bunch of teevees instead of watching just one. FauxNooz caught my eye, and the OP title was their headline and it was the general topic of discussion.

ACORN was the subplot.

Lots of shots of ACORN people (in my view, carefully selected to be sure they would be made) to look like NoI people.

Pictures of Obama with Acorn people.

And then, this incredible headline:

"ACORN brought down the economy?"

Whaaaaaaaaaa ............. ?

1. From all that's going on w/Rethugs chasing ACORN, I'd say this was a long-
planned battle. ACORN has worked for years to help lower-income people (red-lining issues, etc.) and now with their
voter-registration drives, the Rethugs have really been going after them. The invalid voter registration was probably done
by Rethug plants. But there's just a vibe of this having been planned for some time.

What are "NoI" people?

2. NoI ......
Nation of Islam

Black Muslims.

Louis Farrakhan's group. Very scary to a lot of people, especially ignorant white people.

3. They Planned the Attacks on ACORN As Cover For The Voter Purges
Millions of us will find that we are no longer registered when we try to vote Nov 4th.

By planting all these ACORN stories in the media and repeating that stuff over and over,
they have cover for the biggest voter purge of all time.
