I have been surprised in the past few days that when I bring up the subject of ACORN with my friends, they have already bought into the right wing conspiracy theory.

And even more sadly, but probably not surprisingly, there is no balance being given anywhere to the small number of fraudulent ACORN voter registration applications versus the tens of thousands (maybe hundreds of thousands) of voters who are being illegally removed from state's voter registration rolls. Amazing, for every one voter added to the rolls, the states are illegally removing 2. Now why isn't Fox News highlighting that story?

At least Katie Couric highlighted the problem on her CBS news show recently:

Here's a response from ACORN

Stop the lies. Spread the truth. Anyone know what Jimmy Carter is up to on Election Day. He might want to put together a team to monitor this country's voting!
