The current hysteria over ACORN is a perfect example of everything that is wrong with the general state of our political discourse. Let's consider just what ACORN is. It is a non-profit organization whose mission is to empower and improve the lives of poor people. As with many other organizations, ACORN has a number of legally distinct parts, each of which has different sources of funding and engages in different kinds of activities. ACORN's enemies routinely conflate these various parts to imply that ACORN is using federal money for improper political purposes.
