Well Congress is getting the message now and they are starting to shut off all funding for ACORN now! That is good news, but in my opinion that is NOT ENOUGH! To stop there will only allow ACORN to reform as another group (can you say PECAN?) and then get their funding all over again. Of course some people will get fired and maybe even go to jail, but it won't even touch the upper management of ACORN and will only implicate the lower level "expendable" foot soldiers.
We need to force Congress to have a complete and independent investigation into ACORN from top to bottom. We need to hold our politicians feet to the fire until they relent and do what they are required to do as our leaders. Anything less than that is only a slap on the wrist. (Honestly, you are going to waste millions of taxpayer dollars on investigating steroid abuse in Major League Baseball but you are going to look the other way on a group that has disenfranchised thousands of voters and has acted as bullies to extort money from groups).
