ACORN takes a another hit

The Senate voted 93-7 for an amendment to the HUD and Transportation appropriation bill that would strip ACORN of all federal funding. sounds like a start to me but for it to do any good an amendment to the House version has to be passed, it has to get past a conference committee, and Obama would have to sign it. The seven Senators who were "sympathetic to child-whoring pimp assistance" were Dick Durbin (D-IL),
Roland Burris (D-IL), Robert Casey (D-PA), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Patrick Leahy (D-VT), Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI). The names on the list surprise me not at all.
