I host a late night Internet Radio Show on Blog Talk Radio called “The Stage Right Show”.  I focus on many of the stories written here at Big Government and on our sister site, Big Hollywood.

When the infamous NEA Conference call story broke, I spent much time discussing it and the various players involved.  One of my very talented listeners, Gary Eaton wrote a song about the central figure in the saga, Yosi Sergant.

Andrew Breitbart liked that song so much that he had us post it over at Big Hollywood for all to enjoy.

Recently, Andrew “Volun-told” Gary to write a song for our favorite ACORN personality, Alvivon “Bon Bon” Hurd.  You remember Bon Bon.  She was that charming and talkitive ACORN protestor who admitted on tape that ACORN had worked nefariously to get Obama elected even though they were supposed to be bi-partisan.

The “independent” investigation of ACORN has been completed, and the final report is in.

The verdict? ACORN has done nothing illegal, and most of its problems stem from the subpar leadership of its founder and former “chief organizer,” Wade Rathke. As long as Rathke and his allies are out of the picture, everything should be good to go at ACORN headquarters, according to Scott Harshbarger, former attorney general of Massachusetts.

I get the feeling Mr. Harshbarger produced exactly the type of report (which can be viewed at ACORNcracked.com) that the ACORN board of directors paid him to produce: a rationalization of the group’s behavior, designed to deflect the growing chorus of criticism and breathe new life into the organization.

I doubt that anybody will be fooled by the silly conclusions in Harshbarger’s report. But I fear that ACORN’s friends in the White House and Congress may use it as an excuse to allow the organization back into the federal government’s good graces.
