- ACORN PAYS OFF JUDGE TO RULE IN ITS FAVOR: Oh look, a hippie Brooklyn judge has found Congress’ greatest legislative move of the year — to cut off all funding to low-income housing organization ACORN after Internet aggregator Andrew Breitbart and a couple of dipshit college Republicans made a wacky, heavily edited prank YouTube — to be a bill of attainder, which is explicitly unconstitutional. Time to pass a bill of attainder against this hippie Brooklyn judge? [NYDN]

I’d like to see Joe Lieberschmuck get some “Brooklyn Justice” too, preferably from a couple of beefy Local 3 pipefitters.
Reminder to self: never play along with a glaringly obvious hoax, because it just may be used to demonize my entire organization.
I wouldn’t be so sure hippies bought the judge off. There’s only so many “the Poor Should Eat Gruel” and “Is Obama Going to Kill Your Grandmother” stories FOX could show over the day. Something’s gotta fill 24 hours of airtime.
Is Judge Gershon implying that the idiots who passed a law harming an organization based only on heavily-edited amateur videos and a lot of talk-show nonsense should have READ THE CONSTITUTION before they went with their knee-jerk reaction? Do you know what would happen if everybody had to be familiar with the law of the land before they became legislators? That’s right — fascist elitism.
Someone must have given him a lot of free cookies. I think he should expect a lot of teabaggers playing dead in his courtroom in his future.
This is a huge WIN for the Left because ACORN funding is pretty much the number one priority.
Cue right-wing “ZOMFG JUDGE GERSHON IS A PANSY-ASS COMMIE SYMPATHIZER ON ACORN’S PAYROLL” nuclear meltdown in 3…2…
It’s all to be part of a new Jonah Goldberg novel, “Bill of Attainder Is The Night.” Soon to be a major motion picture, with Jonah portrayed by Queen Latifah.
[re=477740]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: You haven’t read the comments on the Daily News article, have you?
They did it thirty-five minutes ago.
Alan Grayson 1, TRUTH JUSTICE AND THE AMERICAN WAY 0!!!
Okay, bill of attainder…what is it? Why, it is an act of the legislature declaring a person or group of persons guilty of some crime and punishing them without benefit of a trial.
Can we haz a bill of attainder for Joe Lieberman, pleeez?
Ahhh! Wonkette front page is nearly illegible, because its covered with SIEMENS!1!
[re=477750]JMP[/re]: Ozymandias? Is that you?
[re=477750]JMP[/re]: I was thinking more globally, but yea, it took all of three comments on the Daily News board to get there, didn’t it?
Worse still, ACORN bribed the judge with tax dollars specifically collected from Glen Beck!!@@@111@#!11
Bills of attainder are unconstitutional! So, what, I FEEL that ACRON is commie and bad and pro-Obama that’s ‘nough for any GOOD authentic American like me to want them to be sent to Gitmo!!
Did I get the Sarah Palin Facebook post right?
[re=477785]McDuff[/re]: A little too eleetist for that crowd. It should be “Bills of attainder IS unconstitutional”, for one thing.
[re=477801]CaiteeCruelle[/re]: Also, I’m pretty sure Palin could not spell “attainder” correctly.
Sarah Palin is here to give you the view from Main Street. The Constitution is just another Washington insider.
“Bills of Attainder”? It’s like being back in Bar prep.
How can we expect such esoteric legal mumbo-jumbo to be properly interpreted by your average Joe Senator? These guys aren’t lawyers, after all; they’re straight shootin’ Washington outsiders.
Since ACORN is solely responsible for the election of one of their own to the highest office in the land is anyone really surprised by this?
Wait, Gina Gershon became a judge? Damn, that makes me want to “appear before her.”
[re=477914]comicbookguy[/re]: “Sarah Palin is here to give you the view from Main Street. The Constitution is just another Washington insider.”
Best. Live. Evah. Also.
[re=478196]Mr Blifil[/re]: Yes, I’d like to be “prosecuted with extreme prejudice” in the court of Gine Gershon. Sounds derrty; don’t it?
[re=477801]CaiteeCruelle[/re]: Nuh-uh. Needs to be “bill of attainders are unconstitutional.” You wouldn’t expect her to say “attorneys general,” would you?
