Health Bill Ads Replaced by ACORN Ad...A Haiku

Perhaps the First Beneficiary of the Health Bill Vote???

Pendulum swings now,
Peaks with new funds for ACORN.
First benefits claimed?

New propaganda
relates honorable words
to creepy tactics.

Within a few hours of the Health Bill vote, most of the ads pro-and-con the Bill have disappeared from Google's ad lineup and have been replaced by ACORN ads selling leather bound volumes containing the US Constitution and other historical US documents... pocket-sized version for $24.95...

Buy a book, and I'll bet you'll be on their membership roll forever.

    ACORN- corrupt and doing their best to destroy America. I thought they were bankrupt, but I think they are just changing like a chamelion because of all the bad press they have had.

    Very good.

    Very ambitious and a good result at that! I've yet to read anyone else's work that topically combines all the corruption of ACORN inside of a neat, little haiku!

    Who wants a pocket sized version? ACORN?

    I don't get all this stuff at all. Oh, politics, how they hurt my brain. Sorry, no basketball involved for Teaser Tuesday!
