In between reports of these radical efforts by Barack Obama to dismantle the nation's free-market economy, Americans hear tantalizing tidbits about new villains like "ACORN," "Saul Alinsky," "the Cloward-Piven Strategy" and the like – all pieces of a puzzle millions of outraged citizens are desperately trying to put together, so they can understand what's really happening and why.
