"Special Friends!"

I got some great news this week, A.C.O.R.N. has been cleared of wrong doing. Yes fans that bastion of the poor downtrodden, that organization which has stood for the little man, has been exonerated of it's alleged misdeeds. I know I sighed with relief as I found out that this institution of hope for the common man is once again able to hold it's head high and once again go to the public trough to gorge itself on taxpayer's money! Yes my fellow Americans this corrupt, partisan, thug run organization has declared itself innocent of any wrong doing in regards to the damning video evidence of their spurious practices. They have not addressed their actions against voters as they were video-tapped during their efforts of intimidation at the polls. How hypocritical is it that the media should even consider this as a serious investigation into A.C.O.R.N.'s obvious abuse of the public trust and misuse of public funds. It will be interesting to see how this self examination is received on Capitol Hill. Personally as a citizen of Illinois I'm sure our "fair minded and dignified" senators, Durbin and Burris, will do their "rubber stamp"best to go along with the fantasy investigation's findings, as their loyalties lie in Cook county and the Oval Office rather then the search for truth. We once had Everett Dirksen , and Paul Simon as our representatives, men of great character and wisdom who were above partisan politics and dedicated to the proposition that the good of America comes first. The whole idea of self investigation when accused of public corruption is ludicrous! Remember when Nixon fired his "Special Prosecutor" because he didn't like the direction of his Watergate inquiries, perhaps that is why we are seeing such a soft handed attitude toward A.C.O.R.N. . If we expand this idea of self investigation to the ridiculous we could have let Charles Manson run his prosecution, Bernie Maddoff edit the financial records of his gigantic swindle. A.C.O.R.N. is just one face in a cast of characters in this administration's questionable stable of supporters. It has now been caught with it's trousers down, exposed for what it is, a political crony who feels it can do anything without consequence. What will the Obama Justice Dept. do about this situation? I may sound jaded, but I believe a blind eye will be turned and nothing of any real meaning will happen to this "friend of the family". As we watch the "Messiah" accept his Nobel Prize what more can we expect from an administration that reeks of favoritism for friends and deception toward the public? Public confidence in the president is at an all time low for any president at this point in his administration, yet he continues in his agenda of weakness and personal glorification. When will Mr. Obama begin to conduct himself as a president of all the people, no longer a candidate trying to get re-elected? Please Mr. President start to protect America and forget those "special friends", you are president of all the people!
