Watch Out, Corruptocrats… Rep. Steve King Discusses the Looming Congressional Investigations

Look Out ACORN… Head For the Hills, Corruptocrats… You may find yourself spilling the beans before a Congressional panel before you know it.

The former community organizer may have a difficult road ahead of him in the 2012 elections, not just because of his disastrous policies, but because his favorite organizers are about to be investigated. I spoke with conservative Rep. Steve King (R-IA) this week and he admitted that ACORN has a big target on its back.

ACORN is the largest radical leftist group in America today.
This radical group worked closely with the Obama camp during the election but, the community organizing group was not open about the relationship. The photo below was scrubbed from the ACORN website before the election:

One of Barack Obama’s first big “community organizer” jobs involved ACORN in 1992. He worked along side ACORN before he became an elected official. Obama also trained ACORN employees. He represented ACORN in court. Obama worked with and protested with ACORN. His campaign donated $800,000 to ACORN in 2008 for voter registration efforts.
And, ACORN even canvassed for Obama in 2008.

In 2009 Obama promoted a top ACORN operative, Patrick Gaspard, who’s organization was fined $775,000 for election violations, to a top post in the White House. Gespard is helping shape domestic policy today.

Barack Obama was not honest about his relationship with ACORN.

Obama’s ACORN group was banned from receiving federal funds in September 2009 after the group was busted on tape promoting the child sex slave trade.

But the days of corruption may be over for these Obama-linked community organizers. Rep. Steve King says that ACORN and its remnants will be investigated in 2011.

I spoke with Rep. Steve King on Wednesday.

Sorry about the poor quality. This was recorded from my cell phone.

Rep. King spoke for several minutes between stops in Iowa. King also spoke about corruption of the current regime in Washington and the activity planned by Congress in 2011.

On Obamacare- Rep King says it’s got to be pulled out by the roots.

“First, I already introduced an amendment to repeal it. We’re going to elect a large freshman class. You’ll find that a lot of democrat representatives will lose their seat because of it. The first bill coming out of the new Congress will be HR 1 to repeal Obamacare. We will send this to the president’s desk where he will veto it. Then we will put language in each and every bill to halt payment for Obamacare. Then in 2012 we can elect a new president who will repeal Obamacare. We must elect a president in 2012 who will repeal Obamacare.”

Will there be any investigation into the dishonest accounting practices used by democrats that helped them ram their bill through Congress?

There will be several investigations. With Obamacare, they did some things to jigger the numbers. They put it off until 2014 to help pay for it. There’s also a $500 billion cut to Medicare. Every one today admits that it’s a Trillion dollar bill. The cost to our freedom in America will be far greater than the cost in money.

Question: Can you talk about any of the investigations?

“ACORN will be investigated. This group admitted to producing over 400,000 false voter registrations… If we lose democratic elections in America we lose our country. We need to go ahead and investigate ACORN. We need to defund them but we should go ahead and investigate them.”

Any other investigations?

“I would also like to investigate the Pigford Farms legislation. I believe almost all of the legitimate claims have been compensated. More than 92,000 blacks have signed up for reparations from the Obama USDA after the Pigford case was extended this past year. That’s five times the number of blacks who were actually farming during the time period in question and would possibly qualify for the reparations.”

Any other investigations:

“I should hold back right now.”

What about Obama? He said this week he’ll be fighting Republicans “day and night”?

“This president is not about bipartisanship. He’s a sharply partisan president. He’s a committed left-wing ideologue. He believes Franklin Roosevelt did not spend enough money in the 1930’s . He will spend money as fast as he can get his hands on it to spend it… Like a gambler he’s just going to keep digging. I think this president will fight us every step of the way.”
