"Obama has a responsibility to rein in ACORN," Palin said during an
interview with conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh.
Palin said the group is responsible for the "unconscionable situation we are
facing now with voter fraud" and attacked the Obama campaign for not
addressing the problem after the McCain campaign sent a letter to the
Democratic camp urging action against voter fraud in September.
Shortly before Palin went on the air, the Obama campaign e-mailed around its
response, dated Sept. 23, characterizing the McCain campaign's concern as "a
starkly political maneuver to deflect attention from the reality of the
suppression strategies pursued by national, state and Republican Party
committees."
The community organizing group has been a favorite target of the McCain
campaign recently, which frequently points to reports of teenagers,
professional athletes and even Mickey Mouse being registered by the group.
The Obama campaign has condemned the reports of voter registration fraud but
has called the charges leveled by the McCain campaign "completely
transparent and false."

Even if there actually HAD actually been verifiable reports of voter fraud
by ACORN, which there have been none of, they're not Obama's responsibility.
ACORN is an independent organization.

Now THAT must have been an interview that Failin' could actually handle.
Limbaugh wouldn't have asked her anything tougher than "How do you spell
your name?"

How do you take action against a problem that doesn't exist? There have
been NO documented cases of successful voter fraud. The system is in place
to catch the rare cases of attempted voter fraud, and it works.

All "flagged" by ACORN, in accordance with their policies, before turning
the forms over to the county clerks, as they are REQUIRED to do, by law,
even if they know or strongly suspect they are illegitimate.

Which they are.

Well, to be fair.. she did answer some of the questions as if she was
repeating something she hastily memorized within the previous few days.
It would have been hilarious if Biden was allowed a follow up such as
"Could you explain what that actually meant"?
The panic on her face would have been priceless!
You could see he didn't really like having a debate with the
intelligence and competence of algae.
Yea and simpleton idiot right-wingers respond to that.
As for the 'debate' she cannot even answer simpleton political
questions. She is a fucking idiot and simpleton right-wing idiots
respond to people like that. ONLY if they are Repubglicans.
Really? How?
'nuff said.
True, but it's not Obama's people who are out of control. For one thing,
ACORN and the Obama campaign are not associated with each other in any way.
Additionally, ACORN is functioning completely in accordance with the laws
imposed on them, which REQUIRE them to turn in all registrations they
receive. No "ifs", "ands" or "buts". They go beyond the requirements of
the law by "flagging", for the benefit of the county clerks, any
applications that they feel may not be valid. So, if you try to sign up as
George Lincoln Rockwell and as a member of the American Nazi Party, they are
required to accept your application and pass it on to the appropriate county
clerk, but if the person taking the application knows anything about U.S.
history they will flag it as being likely fraudulent.
Now, since you wanted to discuss Obama handling his own people, can we also
discuss McInsane's inability to control his own people at his rallies, when
they encourage each other to assassinate a U.S. Senator?

You mean like when she was asked about McInsane's stated goal of further
deregulating the health care insurance industry, and responded with "I would
like to respond about the tax increases. We can speak in agreement here that
darn right we need tax relief for Americans so that jobs can be created
here."?
That woman manages to stay on-topic ONLY when the topic is an anti-Obama
smear. Everything else, she either evades or ignores completely.

I really wish we could see her in another debate. One where she wasn't
overdramatizing the "just plain folks girl next door in Hillbilly Hollow"
routine and winking seductively at Joe Six-pack through the camera. Maybe
one where she was actually required to answer the questions that were being
asked, instead of trying to completely rewrite the questions in her head
between the time they were asked and the time that she answered.
