    geometry - what an acorn says when it grow up





    Most people don't realize that
    large pieces of coral
    which have been painted brown and attached
    to the
    skull by common wood screws,
    can make a child look like a deer
    .

    There are people in need of help. Charity is one of the nobler human motivations. The act of reaching into one's own pockets to help a fellow man in need is praiseworthy and laudable. Reaching into someone else's pocket is despicable and worthy of condemnation.

    Re: Acorn Update....

    It's way bigger than that.....270......

    All of ACORN apparently operates under the umbrella of Citizens Consulting Inc., whose Web site is completely empty aside from its address: 1024 Elysian Fields Ave., New Orleans.
    According to corporate filings, about 270 related organizations — which are a mix of corporations and non-profits from states from California to Louisiana — have filed from that location. Does that look like a building that holds 270 organizations?
    The $630,000 building that was once a funeral home is owned by Elysian Fieldscorp.

    An update on those signs.....

    They don't care....they WILL continue to spend our $$$ for those signs!

    Re: Acorn Update....

    Obama's ties to ACORN and the likes of William Ayres need to be FULLY investigated. I see NO reason to trust ANYONE who associates with traitors. IF you associate with them YOU must be one yourself. It shows.

    who serves beneath the flag,
    and who's coffin is drapped by the flag,
    who allows the protester to burn the flag.

    Just to clarify my thinking, who is the traitor and what makes you say that?

    William Ayres. ANY American who applauds the death of my "brothers in arms", calls for more of their deaths, and supports the enemies of our country is a traitor. Do we not have another member of the "Weather Underground" in our Coward in Chiefs ranks of "CZARS"? I seem to remember hearing that one was appointed to a CZAR post. MAN, this sounds more like Nazi Germany everyday. Who in congress oversees these "CZARS" anyway? So much for the "People" running government.

    Re: Acorn Update....

    Seems to me we have discovered Obama's role as an ACORN community organizer...he sure has perfected the role of scamming the government since bcoming president. I think ACORN is only one of dozens of illegal front-running organizations that use our tax dollars to cheat, deceive and influence. This is the MO of all socialists.
