 merrie says: Some interesting items not being covered in the investigative report are the links between the WFP and ACORN, and even certain names mentioned in the article which clearly show ties with the organization. The WFP has been shown to be nothing more than a front for ACORN and its radical policies. Why? RedState has demonstrated that the WFP was founded by key members of ACORN, and shares many of its political strategies. The WFP lists ACORN as an affiliate program directly on their Web site. Roger Stone calls the New York Working Families Party "one of ACORN's most successful projects". The New York Post analyzes the many shady dealings of the WFP, and its affiliation with ACORN. Yet a simple review of the above material demonstrates that these fraudulent ballot allegations may have been orchestrated by a higher entity - namely, ACORN. Seemingly just as strange, is that a quick look into the history of one of the key components in the story, Karen Scharff, shows a . . . . . direct link to the organization itself. Scharff, according to the article, is co-chair of the Capital District WFP. A little further digging reveals so much more… * Scharff has been involved in health care meetings coordinated by her group, Citizen Action, and ACORN. A picture of one such event appears on the Times Union blog. * Her name appears on a letter of support for ACORN, in which criticism of their work is labeled as ‘mainly partisan’ attacks. * An article regarding the power of fusion politics, a tactic used by the WFP, shows Scharff’s activism in the election of Albany District Attorney, David Soares. The article covers the tandem work of the WFP and Citizen A... THE BETTER QUESTION WOULD BE. "IS ANYONE'S NEWSPAPER OR LOCAL NEWS AFFILIATE COVERING ANY OF THIS......... EXCEPT FOX OF COURSE.? |
