A Blogger’s Voice-A-Thought

Really! There are some good recipes with the use of the Oak Tree nut — but I digress!

Some of us (who shall remain nameless) had to Google and find out exactly who and what is A C O R N.

Not everyone in America are staunch political activists.  We don’t spend our waking hours looking under rocks or into someone’s raunchy crevice, looking for dirt [God knows what ever else] against those whose political views differ from ours.

No, believe it or not, there are some of us Americans who spend our valuable time figuring out how to keep our gas and lights on.

Not only that! Many of us  eenie-meanie-minie-moe it to choose whether we eat dog food or people food for dinner.

So, low and behold I find out that the ACORN hitting headlines these days, is just another political activist group whose opposition(ers) are up-in-arms.

Well, “reach out and slap me stupid Ethel”  wouldn’t you know — again, it’s the Conservatives pitted against the Liberals and visa-versa.

Should I be shocked ?

ACORN’s original premise was to give a voice to the low to  moderate income families. Their ideology was to  work for social justice and stronger communities within these largely ignored and scoffed at communities.

ACORN, the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, is the nation’s largest community organization of low- and moderate-income families, working together for social justice and stronger communities. READ MORE

Not a bad idea until the uglies showed up.

ACORN’s first and biggest mistake was to take government funding.

Their second mistake: their hands became dirty.

No, no, no  — when an organization takes government duckies their life is no longer their own. It doesn’t matter what bipartisanship it falls under.

Besides, what ever happened to having a moral value system?

And, if  hands aren’t lily white [as in dirt or pigmentation take your pick] there’s going to be a problem.

Rest assured the other  side will look for some kind, any kind of grime  or manufacture it’s own to throw in their face — it’s the American way.

Now, ACORN’s protesters are calling them thugs.

What did anyone from ACORN expect? Giving advice on how to obtain a loan to run a brothel. Does anyone from ACORN know what the word t a c k y  means?

ACORN workers in offices in Brooklyn, Baltimore and Washington are caught on hidden camera advising filmmakers posing as a prostitute and pimp on how to obtain a loan to run a brothel. Credulous ACORN housing and tax advisers readily volunteer information to conservative activists James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles, the supposed sex traffickers, on the best way to lie to the IRS and hide a prostitution ring involving underage, illegal immigrant girls.

Look folks, most of the faces from ACORN that’s in the news, are “Black”  You do know how America is with stereotyping — you don’t, well, you should.

Many non-Blacks think that Prostitution, Pimps, Drugs,  go hand in hand with being Black. If you’re going to be in the lime-light and fight for social change, make sure all your ducks are orderly and lined up right.

There can’t be hint of any type of wrong doing. You should go over-board with showing moral fortitude. You must remember that there is a segment of American society that already thinks that anyone who doesn’t look like them or believes like them isn’t American and doesn’t like to share America’s good fortune.

Many, don’t want the people:

who clean their bathrooms, clean their offices, serve their meals, cook their meals, nanny their children, ask “how may I help you” at their favorite fast food joint,  cut their lawns,  clean their elderly’ parents’ butt in nursing homes, live in their slum rentals, receive their less than livable pay. . .

to have a voice too.

I’m serious and smashed with horse paddies — there still are those who think that: we can clean their house and cut their lawns but how dare us  want to live next to them and have our children receive the same quality education as theirs.

It’s just a fact.

And ACORN, how incredibly stupid are you?

How undereducated are you?

How classless are you?

Did you honestly believe the goings on within your organization wouldn’t be scrutinized — that every piece of toilet paper used and every booger flicked, wouldn’t be placed under a microscope?

Are you that naive?

Well, this is America, this is the land where you’re allowed to be as stupid, sneaky, without ethics — as you want to be.

The former administration raped the American people and the right bent over and asked for more — the left  said “no, no, it’s our turn”  

What are those of us smack-dab in the middle suppose to do, leave the planet?
