"The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved." -- Confucius

Boston police investigate burglary at ACORN office

BOSTON -- Police are investigating a possible burglary at the Boston offices of the community activist group ACORN.

Chris Leonard, an official with the Boston branch of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, tells the Boston Herald several computers were stolen from the group's Dorchester office either late Wednesday or early Thursday.

According to police, the alarm had been ripped from the wall, three computers had been stolen and wires had been damaged. The report says two downstairs offices also were ransacked, two vending machines were damaged and change stolen from them.

Leonard says he does not know if the break-in was politically motivated, but called the timing "suspicious."

The FBI is investigating whether ACORN helped foster voter registration fraud in several states before the presidential election. ACORN denies any fraud.


Of course ACORN denies any fraud. When was the last time anyone has admitted to anything? Gotta love how Chris Leonard is calling the timing suspicious. Why, if this was politically motivated, and I'm not saying it wasn't, just not in the way Leonard is trying to paint this, would Team McCain or McCain supporters destroy what could very well be evidence in a Federal investigation against ACORN, an organization overwhelmingly linked to Barrack the One and is doing everything they can think of, including voter fraud, to swing this election in his favor? That's like saying Woodward and Bernstein are the ones responsible for the famous "missing eighteen minutes".

If there is an investigation underway who is more likely to destroy evidence? The accuser or the accused?

Just sayin'.
