with apologies to weasels other than our own federal representative welch.

You remember peter welch right? He’s the “liberal” rep who couldn’t wait for a chance to join his radical right wing compatriots in bashing ACORN – a national group dedicated to empowering those who have been economically and politically disempowered.

On Sept. 15, 2009, my office began an investigation into possible criminality on the part of three ACORN employees. The three had been secretly videotaped by two people posing as a pimp and prostitute, who came to ACORN’S Brooklyn office, seeking advice about how to purchase a house with money generated by their ‘business.’ The ‘couple’ later made the recording public. That investigation is now concluded and no criminality has been found.

Thanks to The Brad Blog which has been doing a yeoman’s job of uncovering the abject dishonesty that our weasel the welch has helped perpetrate on the American people.

Hey, did I say “Thanks, peter” yet? No?
