I'm so proud to see my Senators upholding the reputation of the great state of Illinios. Dick Durbin and Roland Burris are deserving heirs to the political legacy of our beloved former Governor Blagovich and our saintly former Govenor Ryan.

The AP article also said this would have little impact on ACORN as the majority of their funds come from donations, not government grants.

Yeah, ok. I'd bet 95 percent of their funds come from the government from liberal pork bills.

You'd bet wrong. Majority of their income comes from donations.

ACORN has a annual budget of over $100 million dollars. They have supposedly only received $54 million in total from the government over the past 15 years.

$54 million in direct funding from the federal government. That doesn't include funding provided to local/state governments via federal block grants which is in turn given to ACORN. ACORN itself acknowledges that the majority of their funding comes from these local/state governments.
