		<description>The edit function isn&#039;t working for me and I wanted to add another thought. 

One of the links led to where you could look up Tresa Kaelke&#039;s record.  After typing in her name I saw that she had other charges in addition to the order of protection.  Is it ACORN&#039;s practice to look at the records of their potential employees and if they have a record, hire them?  Almost an assurance the employees may participate in dubious activities....hmmm?</description>

She&#039;s some piece of work:


&lt;blockquote&gt;The San Bernardino Police Department is investigating the claims made regarding the homicide. From the initial investigation conducted, the claims do not appear to be factual. Investigators have been in contact with the involved party’s known former husbands, who are alive and well. The investigation is ongoing and anyone with further information is asked to contact the Police Department’s Homicide Division at (909) 384-5615.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;(And one ex-husband Ronald Kaelke has a restraining order against Tresa Kaelke,...&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

		<description>You know it really doesn&#039;t matter IF Teresa&#039;s husband is still alive or if any of her tales of her past days as an &quot;escort&quot; were true.  What matters is the lack of professionalism in how she conducted herself, seeking to be on the same level as &quot;the prostitute&quot; at all.  BUT!!! The most important aspect of the conversation is her yielding and assistance to give advice how to hide the illegal doings, and to distinctly encourage a young girl to start a lucrative life of prostitution and use illegal alien minors in that capacity.  Further, to not blink at the idea of using the monies from such activity to launch a pimp into a political career.

Even IF everything she said was false, it was all said in a meeting with James and Hannah in a way that showed encouragement to not only break the law and beat the system, but without so much as one shred of virtue to encourage them to right and healthy life choices.

Even IF there was not going to be any moral tone expressed regarding Hannah&#039;s prostitution, how can a woman of her years even treat as casual the use of young girls from El Salvador to pad the pockets of a wannabe politician?  Where is the motherhood and apple pie of being an American in that?  Unimaginable the corruption in ACORN.  Makes ya wonder how many bucks from turning tricks were put in the campaign kitty for some of our government officials already through ACORN.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think ACORN is the least bit worried. They have a leader who has surrounded himself with criminals his whole life. They know they are protected. Who&#039;s going to question them? They have operated criminally all this time and I don&#039;t see it stopping anytime soon. Someone needs to step up to the plate and do something about not only ACORN, but all the other criminal activity that has been allowed to prosper under the democratic rule in the house.

		<description>Well I sent this letter to some of the conservative journalists, but do not know if they will even get it, or if it is just so much fluff.  It IS at this point only speculation concerning potential voter fraud.

I don&#039;t know if there is any way any here could investigate and discover if this is happening.

&quot;Because we are well aware of the corruption in the political machinations in our country, and in certain organizations within that political framework, we ought to be vigilant and ferret out that corruption and truly drain the swamp.  I applaud your hard work to be about such an essential endeavor.

Last year during the campaign fervor, I thought there was a certain disproportionate enthusiasm in my daughter&#039;s class room for one candidate over another.  I called the teacher and was assured that was not the case, and I did accept that to be factual, knowing the teacher and believing in her integrity.  However, I got to thinking about this. And even more because the class held a mock election.   You see, my daughter is in a class room for the cognitively disabled.  She was nineteen years old at the time.  Her classroom is filled with many students that are indeed over eighteen, but are truly ineligible to vote. When guardianship is ordered by the courts,  as is the case when the developmentally disabled turn eighteen,there is a clause that addresses the restriction concerning voting. 

That said, a school or a sheltered work place has access to the social security numbers, birth and current data for each one served through these facilities.  All too often the developmentally disabled are silenced and haven&#039;t been heard in matters pertaining to justice and opportunity.  However, would it not be ironic if these very special people who do not have that voice in all too many instances would be considered a population to harvest votes during elections?  To prime and pump this population for a candidate and then count their votes since it would seem all the i&#039;s are dotted and t&#039;s are crossed in regard to age, precinct, and citizenship requirements?

My daughter has Down&#039;s Syndrome.  I realize as her mom and her guardian how much I must give her to exercise free will in as much as possible, but that even in that agency of choice, she is not culpable for her decisions and any consequences that follow.  It is a balancing act of bringing her to flourish as her own person and yet personally taking responsibility for her.

I have wondered across America in many &quot;Special Ed. &quot; classes or other organizations and facilities that work with the developmentally disabled adult population, how easy and therefore how likely it would be that groups such as ACORN could take the votes of these &quot;mock elections&quot; that are held to encourage thoughts of country and government to those served?  I would have to say that I believe it would be very easy. 

I do not wish to be counted a mistrusting conservative fear-mongerer, but I just cannot shake the notion that such a vulnerable group of people could be defrauded by the ruthless organizers that have an agenda to change our country and form or infiltrate groups to that very end.

Thank you for any time, consideration or investigation into this possibility.

With you to stand down the attacks on all that is right and good in our country,&quot;</description>

<p>Last year during the campaign fervor, I thought there was a certain disproportionate enthusiasm in my daughter&#8217;s class room for one candidate over another.  I called the teacher and was assured that was not the case, and I did accept that to be factual, knowing the teacher and believing in her integrity.  However, I got to thinking about this. And even more because the class held a mock election.   You see, my daughter is in a class room for the cognitively disabled.  She was nineteen years old at the time.  Her classroom is filled with many students that are indeed over eighteen, but are truly ineligible to vote. When guardianship is ordered by the courts,  as is the case when the developmentally disabled turn eighteen,there is a clause that addresses the restriction concerning voting. </p>
<p>That said, a school or a sheltered work place has access to the social security numbers, birth and current data for each one served through these facilities.  All too often the developmentally disabled are silenced and haven&#8217;t been heard in matters pertaining to justice and opportunity.  However, would it not be ironic if these very special people who do not have that voice in all too many instances would be considered a population to harvest votes during elections?  To prime and pump this population for a candidate and then count their votes since it would seem all the i&#8217;s are dotted and t&#8217;s are crossed in regard to age, precinct, and citizenship requirements?</p>
<p>My daughter has Down&#8217;s Syndrome.  I realize as her mom and her guardian how much I must give her to exercise free will in as much as possible, but that even in that agency of choice, she is not culpable for her decisions and any consequences that follow.  It is a balancing act of bringing her to flourish as her own person and yet personally taking responsibility for her.</p>
<p>I have wondered across America in many &#8220;Special Ed. &#8221; classes or other organizations and facilities that work with the developmentally disabled adult population, how easy and therefore how likely it would be that groups such as ACORN could take the votes of these &#8220;mock elections&#8221; that are held to encourage thoughts of country and government to those served?  I would have to say that I believe it would be very easy. </p>
<p>I do not wish to be counted a mistrusting conservative fear-mongerer, but I just cannot shake the notion that such a vulnerable group of people could be defrauded by the ruthless organizers that have an agenda to change our country and form or infiltrate groups to that very end.</p>
<p>Thank you for any time, consideration or investigation into this possibility.</p>
<p>With you to stand down the attacks on all that is right and good in our country,&#8221;</p>

		<description>I&#039;m thinking that this latest tape (with the crazy ACORN husband murderer) is a wash because I think she knew she was being hustled and was just playing along...hence the crazy stories she told.

If so, the MSM should cover it from that angle.</description>

		<description>The latest tape proves President O&#039;Dumbo trained them well. ACORN in nothing less and nothing more than a coast to coast criminal enterprise. I&#039;m happy this came out and they will not be working the cencus or collecting votes for the democrats. It will save me from shooting one of the slime balls if they came on my property. I was planning to give them 30 seconds to clear a 200 foot driveway, now it will be a count of three and I&#039;ll skip the two.</description>
