About Eric M

Eric uncomfortably admits that until about 20 years ago, he was a political "free rider", always thinking that others would do the heavy lifting to keep America on course. After watching both democrats and republicans steer us FAR in the wrong direction, Eric knew he had to get involved.

ACORN Affiliate Coordinating with the Dept. of Justice

I'm really, REALLY angry about this story. REALLY angry. I've been expecting things to "go this far"...this is not at all surprising. However, it's corrupt beyond belief.
