Tonight we talked to someone who works in the federal courts here in Chicago.

The buzz in those corridors is that federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has been leading a team of FBI investigators in 10 states working on a RICO case.

Today, it was announced that ACORN is being investigated in 10 states.

That’s one Hell of a coincidence.

We asked why Fitzgerald would be involved in this, because he’s the prosecutor on the Tony Rezko case and we aren’t aware of ACORN being investigated in Illinois.

We were told that ACORN was investigated in Illinois years ago, and it was a Fitzgerald case then. This means ACORN’s activities today, involving a conspiracy to commit multi-state voter fraud on SoetorObama’s behalf, are an extension of that previous ACORN case.

Our source in federal courts said, “Any crime that involves more than two people and is carried out across state lines qualifies as a corrupt organization. The fact that those “Goodwill” donations were made in Texas and received at Obama headquarters in Chicago or Washington means it qualifies for RICO.”

The “Goodwill donations” referred to above are the $228 million in undocumented, unverified campaign contributions the SoetorObama camp has received — which the McCain campaigned filed a complaint to the FEC on this past Monday.

We’ve also heard that the Clinton campaign filed complaints to the FBI and other federal agencies over SoetorObama’s fraud in the Iowa, Texas and other caucuses: voter intimidation, registration fraud, and other illegal activities.

The last thing we were told tonight in regards to all of this was that “the meme here is a tying together of all these various threads. That’s what you will see in the last weeks of the campaign: all things being tied together”.

If everything rumored here is true, it looks like David Axelrod, Howard Dean, Donna Brazile, SoetorObama himself, and possibly even Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid were all involved, together, in massive RICO violations, and thus federal fraud, if the DNC and party leadership knew what the SoetorObama campaign and ACORN were up to and allowed it to proceed. Knowledge of federal crimes being committed makes all parties accessories to those crimes — and part of the conspiracy to defraud the public.

THAT would certainly be one Hell of a shock tomorrow morning.

I'll wait for the subpoenas to come out.

Anyone can start a rumor. Lord knows, we've seen plenty of wild accusations from both sides this year. Illegitimate kids, secessionists, terrorists, corruption, yadda, yadda.

Nothing new about that, of course--the late stages of campaigns are always characterized by flung poo. Interestingly, none of it seems to be sticking all that well this year. Could be people are just tired of it.

Hasn't always been the case, however--this early and devastatingly dirty late-campaign TV ad helped consign Barry Goldwater to the history books, even though it ran only once. For those who've never seen it, it's a masterpiece of innuendo:

Nobody seems to be as good at smear campaigning these days--it's a degenerate age.

Ya know, until a rumor grows legs and walks, I'm usually not inclined to pay it much mind anymore. The past few campaigns have burned out my rumor-crediting synapses. I doubt I'm the only one who feels that way.

Best,

George

Gosh, an actual Rumor ??

Here's a rumor for you ... a majority of Americans are fed up with the Republicans and will vote for Obama.

Remember, Bush can't just enact any old bill he wants. The Congress, in which the Dems hold a majority in both houses, are the ones who say yeah or nay.

May I suggest that you vote for McCain then. with congress going to be more heavily democrat, the best way to express your displeasure is to make the 2 parties work together.

Historically speaking, the country's economy is better served with congress' majority and the President coming from different parties.

I will admit to being more conservative than liberal, but my vote is not for the Republicans, it is for a forced bipartisan government.

I think the solution is to get rid of them both. We've had a democrat majority with W. in office, that's worked well hasn't it? How about the deficit spending during the Reagan years? It's a joke. Bi-partisnism my ass.

The idea that with the immense resources of national political parties that they are behind the door when it comes to finding slime and internet-created rumors is bizarre. When there is something useful and verifiable enough to satisfy these incredibly powerful organs, it gets used...always....they never miss a trick. It shows. All they do is look for stuff to use that will work...constantly with every geeky system there is.....believe me, they know exactly how it's done.

Are "internet rumors" why the FBI siezed all documents and computers of accorns LV headquaters?

Are internet rumors why the FBI are looking at voter fraud by accorn in ten states?

Damn, internet rumors are just a real hoot with the FBI these days.....LMMFAO Grin
