IRS severs ties with ACORN over scandal

WASHINGTON (AP) - The IRS says it is severing ties with ACORN, the community activist group involved in a scandal after employees were caught on video giving advice to a couple posing as a prostitute and pimp.
The Internal Revenue Service said Wednesday it would no longer include ACORN in its volunteer tax assistance program. The program offered free tax advice to about 3 million low- and moderate-income tax filers this spring.

The IRS said ACORN, which is short for the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, provided help on about 25,000 returns.

The House and Senate voted earlier this month to sever federal funding to ACORN.

Bye...

They'll just be back again next month with a new name, something like NUTS;
National Urban Taskforce for the Subclass and will be back to doing the same ol' crap with tons of funding by Soros.

LOL, you said NUTS...

Soros owns the far left Democrats, he's the head that guides the snake!

ACORN was an authorized IRS tax filing provider for low income families and ACORN was paid a fee for each filed return by the IRS. Part of the Government nanny money...

ACORN: Tax cheat
Group faces huge IRS liens

ACORN CEO Bertha Lewis told Fox News' Chris Wallace on Sunday that her group "absolutely pays its taxes." Not true: The IRS and Louisiana's taxmen have imposed nearly $2 million in liens against ACORN for failing to fork over taxes at its New Orleans national headquarters.

The IRS recently filed a $548,000 lien against the group, and Louisiana state tax officials have slapped $334,000 in liens on ACORN since last October.

This would explain the Obama connection very well.
