ACORN Operative Patrick Gaspard Received Colleague at White House by Matthew Vadum
White House political director Patrick Gaspard met with ACORN spokesman and lobbyist Scott Levenson, a former co-worker, at the White House the Obama administration disclosed Friday.
Levenson’s inclusion in the newly released list of visitors to the Obama White House makes the president’s claim he’s clueless about his former employer ACORN — and its election fraud trials and tribulations — especially difficult to believe. That’s because Gaspard is President Obama’s right hand man. Some describe him as the new Karl Rove.
The purpose of the visit by Levenson (pictured below) who met with Gaspard in March was not disclosed.
The relentlessly combative Levenson, who is also a registered lobbyist for New York ACORN, was thrown out of Glenn Beck’s TV studio May 6 for suggesting during a commercial break that the TV host was racist for daring to challenge ACORN. Levenson’s been helping to coordinate ACORN’s public disinformation strategy which relies heavily on lies and misdirection.
Few would care about Levenson’s visit to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue if it weren’t for the fact that President Obama claims — unconvincingly — to be out of the loop regarding ACORN.
After the undercover prostitution sting videos first surfaced on BigGovernment.com and the “Glenn Beck Program” in September the American public began to realize that ACORN is a vast criminal conspiracy whose reach extends to the highest levels of the U.S. government.
Obama said at that time he was barely aware of ACORN’s problems. “This is not the biggest issue facing the country. It’s not something I’m paying a lot of attention to,” he told ABC’s George Stephanopoulos.
Nobody believed the president — except for certain members of the mainstream media. Evidently Anne E. Kornblut and Jason Horowitz of the Washington Post are also incurious members of the MSM. Their puff piece profile of Gaspard today suggests they have no interest in probing Gaspard’s ties to ACORN.
Gaspard, who came to the White House after serving as executive vice president of SEIU Local 1199, has ties to ACORN that go way back.
Gaspard also worked for New York’s Working Families Party, which is part of the ACORN network. ACORN chief organizer Bertha Lewis is a co-founder of that party — which endorsed Obama last year — and has close ties to Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) who has been most reluctant to have the House Judiciary subcommittee he chairs investigate ACORN. Nadler is even providing advice to ACORN through its lawyer Arthur Z. Schwartz but he refuses to address this huge conflict of interest. The congressman’s press office won’t return my calls.

| Let's see who else reports this......I've seen Fox cover it, but that is the only one so far. I think the article should be sent to that MSNBC reporter that asked the question. |

GAWD! Who cares? Acorn, acorn, acorn. Give it a rest!
Obama needs to focus on the SEVERE problems we are facing with our economy! For starters:
1) Credits and money for small businesses to get them hiring again, tax amnesties 2) Force the big bailout banks who have ripped us off to do REAL LOAN MODS for folks, or forfeit all the money they ripped off with TARP! MASSIVE PRINCIPAL REDUCTIONS ACCROSS the BOARD! 3) FIRE GEITHNER, and punish Goldman ***** for their sins-haha, I know that will NEVER HAPPEN! 4) The Republirats need to force Congress to nullify the STIMULOUS BILL, and write one that will create real jobs! Of course that will never happen either, as they could care less about doing the right thing...Ditto Demorats! 5) Kill this massive Health Care Bill, and work on real reforms that cut costs! 6) Set up an alternative bank for small loans, kinds like Prosper.Com. To help out millions of folks pay their bills, mortgages. SBA really only helps the "Diaper-heads" who rip SBA off, and take over our small businesses. 7) Work on real IMMIGRATION REFORM-NOW! Jail & fine those who hire illegals...that will stop it in its tracks! And provide forced bussing back to Mexico! 8) Stop all ENVIRONMENTAL SCAMS-Global warming, "bugs over people" programs. Open up mining, oil drilling, especially gold mining, which could pay off the massive debt we have now! At $ 1050/oz. for gold, You Betcha!
Above all we need to VOTE OUT ALL INCUMBENTS, D or R! And raise our own slate of candidates & issues, and we can start by getting 5 MILLION PROTESTERS to Storm D.C! To send a message, that "We won't take it anymore"! MAIN STREET, NOT WALL STREET!
O.K. I'm done raving...I'll go take my meds now, and go in for my shock therapy now. |

Zpaper -
Isn't it obvious to you that the Administration cares more about saving ACORN, who the POTUS "nows nothing about recently." He's more worried about ACORN than all of your items #1 thru #8?
As for voting out incumbents, Virginia is well on the way. I plan to work for whatever campaigns are working against the incumbents in the 2010 elections. They're currently Dems, so, I'll be either helping the GOP, Independents or Other.
Now on that 5 million march? Close to two million went to 9/12 and I have heard so many, "damn, I wish I would have gone." There will be another protest, a peaceful protest, but in greater numbers if the same level of dissatisfaction continues. Do you plan to be there?
You gonna share your meds? |

| ...interesting... Are you just angry because you're not on the schedule guess list. I wouldn't worry about ACORN they'll be in existence for years to come. Probably, they're setting up meetings regarding the constitutionality of the funding freeze without legal grounds. If you can't convict you must acquit. Or something like that from the late Johnny Cockerel. Some govtm. contractors were convicted of fraud and funding was never halted. I remember now...."if it doesn't fit you must aquit." |

Cecilia, are you seriously insane?
Acorn has been found guilty and will be found guilty in many more states. The a-holes who started ACORN now run SEIU and many of the same characters have wrote the so-called stimulus (huge FAIL) and are now involved in writing the health care bill (soon to be a giant FAIL).
Obama WRONGLY thought his election was a mandate for socialism, it was NOT. His election was an anti-Bush vote, not a mandate. Virginia and New Jersey were anti-socialist votes.
2010 will be Anti-Obama, and 2012 will be anti-Obama. This was just the start
