i think that putting acorn and xe in the same boat (breaking the law) is a stretch. one is in a combat zone and thus subjected to all its variables. it also serves the u.s. gov't as a whole. acorn serves only the democratic party and is "non profit" entity. the u.s. gov't does not fund xe. it pays them for a service. acorn does no services for the country, only for the party.

Ask Pelosi, Reid, Murtha, et al. Until the majority party in Congress is willing and able to find or otherwise provide a replacement source for the services provided by the likes of Blackwater and KBR, you are whizzing into the wind.

Defund Blackwater?

A jail sentence is more appropriate Wink

Yes for sure, because no service member here has reaped the sacrifices of Blackwater employees. I know they’ve done a hell of a job when we needed them. Grow up!

And being charged for a crime is far from being convicted.

There have been service members charged with manslaughter as well (in a combat zone I might add), you gonna throw them under the bus too?

Throttle back a tad, collect your thoughts, then make a meaningful arguement for once.

I'm referring to Prince and the rest of Blackwater's Executive staff Wink

They aren't the honorable bunch you make them out to be.

There was an article a few months ago stating Prince was being brought up on manslaughter or murder charges. He was convicted by many on the Left at that time.

Since we haven't heard about these charges, I wonder if he was found innocent or they dropped them. That would be on par with posters here.

They like to post "gotcha posts" but when it doesn't go their way, no other follow up posts occur.


Does anyone know what happened with those so-called murder charges against Prince?

There you go making my point for me. A few employees of ACORN broke the law, but the organization has not and yet folks here want to see the organization shut down for the actions of a few of its employees. Get it now or was that too difficult for you to comprehend?

Now I ask you, was the last sentence in my post necessary? No...and neither was the last sentence in yours.

So Shady, can you comment on the topic? Oops, sorry...I seemed to have forgotten who I was addressing. Of course you can't.

I'll take that as a tacit admission that you work directly for/cooperate with the criminal organization ACORN. Hell, iirc, you practically bragged about it last year in the months leading up to the election selection.

Sorry sister, there lies a big difference between GOVERNMENT employees in a combat zone and some third class liberal turds bought out by a political party.

Please tell me you can see a difference.

Sorry but breaking the law is breaking the law. If employees breaking the law is supposed to be reflective of the organization, we need to stop funding the Blackwater AND the military immediately.

I'm simply using someone else's logic. The argument of the ACORN detractors is that because a few employees broke the law, the organization cannot receive any more tax dollars. Shouldn't that be applied to ANY organization or is it just for the ones that conservatives don't like?

That is an absolutely pathetic excuse. Either laws apply in combat zones or they do not. And if they do, breaking the law is breaking the law.

Duuuuude, take a quaalude or sumpin'. Cool

Seawitch is using basic easy to understand logic. It's called equal and fair treatment under the law.

Maybe break it down easier for ya"

John Smith does something wrong and gets punished. Joe Blow does something wrong and does not get punished.

This is wrong.

Simple.
