Malkin’s loyal readers are well aware of ACORN’s past, present, and future. More so than the mainstream media, it appears.

Not a peep or a poop from anyone in the MSM, not even from ABC’s “suddenly-tough-question-asker” reporter Jake Tapper.

As a result of her findings, Malkin has a mantra for all conservatives to memorize and repeat frequently:

“ACORN is a criminal enterprise.”

These are the five simple words that every conservative candidate and officeholder should be repeating often and loudly.

Here are links to a number of Malkin’s other posts about ACORN:

Finally, others in Congress, in addition to the tough and magnificent Michele Bachmann in Minnesota, are paying attention and unearthing some of ACORN’s putrid crooked dealings and fraudulent voter registration riggings.

Tip of the iceberg only at this stage, but the ACORN pool is being drained, and there may be quite a few metaphorical “dead bodies” at the bottom of that iceberg’s pool.

From Malkin, Going on offense against the ACORN conspiracy:

ACORN Report: Republicans on the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee:

“The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) has repeatedly and deliberately engaged in systemic fraud,” according to the report’s executive summary. “Both structurally and operationally, ACORN hides behind a paper wall of nonprofit corporate protections to conceal a criminal conspiracy on the part of its directors, to launder federal money in order to pursue a partisan political agenda and to manipulate the American electorate. Emerging accounts of widespread deceit and corruption raise the need for a criminal investigation of ACORN.”

The report includes significant new information about wrongdoing brought to the attention of committee investigators by ACORN whistleblowers.

Highlighted in the report:

* ACORN has evaded taxes, obstructed justice, engaged in self dealing, and aided and abetted a cover-up of the $948.607.50 embezzlement by Dale Rathke, the brother of ACORN founder Wade Rathke.
* ACORN has committed investment fraud, deprived the public of its right to honest services, and engaged in a racketeering enterprise affecting interstate commerce.
* ACORN has committed a conspiracy to defraud the United States by using taxpayer funds for partisan political activities.
* ACORN has submitted false filings to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Department of Labor, in addition to violating the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
* ACORN falsified and concealed facts concerning an illegal transaction between related parties in violation of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).

“It is outrageous that ACORN will be rewarded for its criminal acts by taxpayer money in the stimulus and is being asked to help with the U.S. census,” said Rep. Issa. “This report shines a light on clear criminal conduct and it is abundantly clear that they cannot and should not be trusted with taxpayer dollars.”

Remember… “ACORN is a criminal enterprise.”
