ACORN Founder Wade Rathke Comes Out Swinging for Doug Jones

The founder and chief organizer of the controversial former group known as ACORN, or the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, has come out in defense of Doug Jones, the Democratic candidate for December’s Senate special election in Alabama.

Legendary radical leftist organizer Wade Rathke was responding on his personal blog website, chieforganizer.org, to an article authored last week by this reporter titled, “Roy Moore Challenger Doug Jones Pushing ACORN Pet Project Known for Devastating Workers, Small Businesses.” Rathke continues to head ACORN’s still-active international affiliate.

The Breitbart News article factually documented that Jones is pushing a living wage scheme for the state and country that has a history of hurting small businesses, negatively impacting local economies and decreasing employment opportunities for low income workers.

The Breitbart News piece further reported that Jones is closely linked to a George Soros-financed legal activist organization behind the early crafting of local living wage legislation. The living wage was a project of ACORN, which played a central role in enacting the scheme in several cities.

ACORN, eh? We all know where anything associated with that group comes from and ends up going, aside from that presidency mistake.
