Shame on the 75 House members who continue to support an organization that <a href=\"http:\/\/pajamasmedia.com\/blog\/the-complete-guide-to-acorn-voter-fraud\/\">can&#8217;t seem to vet it&#8217;s workers<\/a>. Of course, ACORN funding could continue even though both the House and the Senate have voted to defund it. They did so with amendments on two different bills. We will have to wait for reconciliation to see what happens. In the mean time, ACORN still receives federal funds.BTW, for those commenters who think this is just a &#8220;conservative meme&#8221; and why should Pelosi know about it (if it isn&#8217;t enough for her to know what the Senate is doing), you might want to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedailyshow.com\/watch\/tue-september-15-2009\/the-audacity-of-hos\">check out Jon Stewart<\/a>.
