  HOLD ON JUST A MINUTE!!!

  If this is a contingent of left and radical left activists, what is Mick Cornett, the Conservative Republican Mayor of Oklahoma City doing right there in the middle of the stage? See pic here... http://www.okc.gov/council/mayor/mayor.html

  Either it was a balanced group or Mick snuck in as a Double Knot Spy.

   Give it up!!!

  There you go, trying to obfuscate the issue-which is that Obama, in his own words, has promised ACORN that they will "help shape my agenda" even before he is inaugurated!

  Try as you might you simply cannot spin this any other way.   

  It is beyond scary to me that so many people in America seem to believe that they need to be organized like some dysfunctional community.  Of course this is just another example of Obama's apparent Socialist/Marxist leanings.

  keliann,

  I'm unclear on your obfuscation point. I simply stated that the conservative mayor of my fair city happened to be promised the same thing as everyone else sitting there, including ACORN. I would like to think even us "Dumb Okies" will have a part in shaping the new administration. I would also like you to verify any currently pending voter registration or voter fraud charges against ACORN or drop the smear.

  Furthermore, if you can't find dysfunction in the polarizing views represented in this country, maybe you only watch reruns of "Father Knows Best" and "Leave It To Beaver".

  Stop already with the fear-mongering. It worked for 49% of the population in 2004 but won't work now, thank God.

  Obfuscation as in 'you didn't see what you saw or hear what you heard'.  Instead of addressing the very central point here of Obama pledging to a crowd of community organizers that they would be called upon to help shape his agenda as President you went off on some explanation about a Republican mayor being present.  That is not who O was talking to.

  In fact,  I believe that these are the only people that O has so far named to his administration, at least publically.

  Presently there are numerous courts as we speak sorting out the extent of the voter registration fraud and voter fraud allegedly perpetrated by ACORN, so I will have to get back to you on that. Ditto on the strong-arm tactics that were used to seed the current housing/mortgage crisis. 

  Disagreement so far is not considered dysfunction in this country.

  Fear-mongering???  If we can't believe O's own words, what can we believe?  He is so very eloquent.

Obama: ACORN will “Shape the Agenda” When I’m President [Reader Post]
Flopping Aces — Barack Hussein Obama states at a December 2007 community organizer forum that he will invite ACORN to “shape the agenda” during transition period and he will allow them to be actively involved during the first 100 days of his administration.

Obama In 2007: I Will Invite ACORN To Help Me Shape My Agenda
Say Anything — That’s right.  ACORN.  His former employer and the nation’s leader in fraudulent voter registrations. Just another blow to Obama’s character and judgment to chalk up next to his close, personal/professional relationships with William Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, Bernadette Dohrn and Tony Rezko. And it will undoubtedly be ignored by the media, just like the rest of them.  Because it doesn’t matter that Obama has spent his entire professional career hanging around with extremists, bomb-setters, crooks and fraudsters.  It only matters that ...

Socialists Win
Classical Values — Socialists Win Marxists Win Click To Enlarge According to Gateway Pundit Obama had some interesting friends when he was learning the political ropes in Chicago. Obama actively sought the New Party's endorsement and urged the Marxist members to join his campaigns. The New Party went so far as to claim Obama as an official member of their organization. The New Party socialists were affiliated with the Democratic Socialists of America. Of course, Obama has a long history of relationships with Marxists. His first mentor in high school was noted Communist Frank Marshall Davis. He admitted he attended socialist conferences during his college years in his first ...

Obama and the Integrity Gap: ACORN
RedState: Conservative News and Community — Chapter four of seven C. ACORN The left-wing group Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), a national umbrella group of, well, community organizers, sits at the intersection of Obama's ties to extremists and his ties to machine politics. ACORN is indisputably Sixties-style "New Left" in its orientation, pursuing what Sol Stern describes as an agenda of "undisguised authoritarian socialism." The group has both money and foot soldiers, as it "uses banking regulations to pressure financial institutions into massive 'donations' that it uses to finance supposedly non-partisan voter turn-out ...

It rescues the gold-plated and wafer-thin layer of malefactors instead of growing jobs, income and solvency for the middle class. It’s too little, too late, and vastly too much, most of it wasted. And the Bailout approaches $2 trillion now. Except for dedicated ...
