ACORN Thugs Throw Out Republican Registrations

ACORN activists are famous for using your tax dollar to register characters like Mickey Mouse[1]. But what would happen if they did something really weird — like register Republicans? As reported by Pam Geller[2], Black Republican Fathiyyah Muhammad of Jacksonville discovered the answer when she signed up to register voters for ACORN at $3/head.

In stark contrast to typical ACORN operatives, Muhammad is an entrepreneur who grasps the concept of economic liberty. As she puts it:

America is the place you can live your dreams if you work at it.

When potential voters didn’t have a preference, she signed them up as Republicans. An apparatchik back at the ACORN office was not pleased.

I showed what I had, and he said, “No, no, you a fraud, there can’t be any black Republicans,’ and oh, he just kind of hung me out to dry.… But of course their main aim was to register only Democrats. They’re not interested in registering Republicans.

As for the Republican registrations she collected…

They just discarded those, they weren’t valid. All of the registrations… they just threw those out.

To top it off, ACORN stiffed her for the $3 per registration she’d been promised.

Everyone else got paid, all the other people got paid, but I didn’t. And I didn’t make a big deal about it, I just figured that it was another one of life’s experiences.

Let’s hope the whole country learns from its recent experiences[3] with ACORN — and with the community activist it helped place in the White House.
