Liberal interest groups and unions (but I repeat myself) are coming together under the banner of the “Campaign for Jobs and Economic Recovery Now” in order to pressure Congress into passing Obama’s possibly trillion-dollar economic plan. Among the participants? A little group called ACORN.

Given the parlous state of the economy and the tricky politics of the auto bailouts, passing a large economic stimulus plan might be a heavier lift than Democrats might have anticipated in the weeks after the election.   “Why should [Obama] have to spend political capital on a problem created by his predecessors?” said Brad Woodhouse, whose Americans United for Change (c)4 will coordinate the group’s activities.

Participants include the Change to Win unions, the AFL-CIO unions, ACORN, US Action, the NEA, the Sierra Club, the People for the American Way foundation, and others. They’ll provide the field capacity; Woodhouse’s Americans United for Change is organizing the coalition and will produce the bulk of its communications, both paid and earned. C-JERN has met with Obama’s transition team and with representatives for Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Harry Reid.

I can see the larger government, massively increased spending, higher taxes, and more power for union bosses from here. Craptastic.
