re: #295 Flyovercountry

I must disagree with you on this sir. This organization receives federal funding for the express purpose of getting their candidates elected to a multitude of positions at various levels. That alone should have raised major alarm bells a long time ago. While I will agree that they are not all evil, I must insist that there are systemic problems which need to be stopped immediately. The real story here is that it took this to cause the stir. I will concede that there is a likely disconnect between leadership and those working in the field, but the employment laws in all 50 states have provisions mandating that employers are responsible for the actions of employees, (duty to supervise.) With this happening a multitude of times and locations, Acorn deserves the scrutiny they are about to receive.

I don’t disagree with that, but it wasn’t my point. And I didn’t say they shouldn’t be investigated — I said the obsessive demonization that’s taking place is going to backfire.
