Obama appointee, Robert Grove, has dashed off a letter, notifying the national ACORN headquarters he is severing all ties with the community organizing group for all 2010 census work.
“Over the last several months, through ongoing communication with our regional offices, it is clear that ACORN’s affiliation with the 2010 Census promotion has caused sufficient concern in the general public, has indeed become a distraction from our mission, and may even become a discouragement to public cooperation, negatively impacting 2010 Census efforts,†read a letter from Census Director Robert M. Groves to the president of ACORN.
“Unfortunately, we no longer have confidence that our national partnership agreement is being effectively managed through your many local offices. For the reasons stated, we therefore have decided to terminate the partnership,†the letter said.
So no official ACORN presence in the census. I'd be willing to bet that POS organization will still be involved as they will reinvent themselves, but it's a step in the right direction.
Now all we have to do is get Congress to stop using our taxes to fund them.
Obama's cronies continue to be marginalized. Onto the elimination of some czars.
