Why else hit a dealership that carries all the lines and sold 60 cars last month. The largest Ford Dealer in San Diego did not sell that many cars last month. My guess is Obama thugs making up the lists. http://www.classmates.com/directory/public/memberprofile/list.htm?regId=3768286

Replying to: gagrice (May 25, 2009 7:44 pm) I thought ACORN had something to do with voter registration. What is the car connection?

Replying to: aatherton (May 26, 2009 11:38 am) However, it's not clear whether or not those procedures were followed in Nevada prior to a highly publicized raid by state officials on Oct. 7. According to an affidavit by Colin Hayes, a criminal investigator for the secretary of state's office, a probe began July 2 after the county registrar reported receiving a number of suspicious registration forms from ACORN. Hayes did not state whether or not those suspicious forms had been flagged by ACORN before being turned in. Later, during a July 18 meeting, ACORN's lawyer told local and state officials that the group had identified a number of suspicious registrations and "would be willing to provide such information" for further investigation. On Aug. 7, at the request of the county registrar, ACORN supplied copies of documents related to 33 ACORN workers who had been fired for "suspicious" voter registration activities. Investigator Hayes followed up, confirmed that many registrations were faked, and found a former ACORN worker who confessed to faking most of her forms. After obtaining a warrant based on the affidavit, state officials seized records and computers. Secretary of State Ross Miller was quoted as saying the faked forms included names from the starting lineup of the Dallas Cowboys. On banking: It stretches the facts, however, to say that ACORN "forced" banks to make risky loans, though it has certainly applied pressure on banks to make loans to minority and low-income borrowers. ACORN also has worked directly with banks in a joint effort to increase such lending. In Chicago these efforts date back at least to 1992

Replying to: gagrice (May 25, 2009 9:18 pm) I do find some of the dealer's selection suspicious but I think it has to do with dealers who upset Chrysler's management over the years. But i haven't spent most of the day researching this on the internet. |
