#1 Headline here isnt the ACLU. Its the Ford Foundation, traditionally an aggressively liberal place. Good for them.

AP: American Freikorps units guns down ACLU assembly members

July 20, 2008 (Boston): Police and FBI believe that the American Freikorps struck again, this time gunning down fifteen ACLU members who were attending a conference ironically titled "Terrorism is a protected status."

Police and FBI have had difficulty shutting down the Freikorps organization which many law enforcement counter-terrorism experts believe consists of Iraq War vets and right-wing militias that have declared war on the Fifth Column left in America. ...

#3 Right on, Lh. But I wouldn't give them credit for some change of heart... I'd say it's self-preservation and self-serving greed, more likely. The people controlling these two Moonbat bagmen recognize their lucrative positions could be in jeopardy if they don't demonstrate at least the pretense of having standards. That it's merely pretense is a matter of historical record for both. Nonetheless, it worked to the public good in this case, at least.

Of course, that the ACLU won't take funds if they are merely required to declare they don't support or otherwise consort with the Bag GuyzÂ© and their mouthpieces / minions is remarkably telling, no?

Hmmm. Unable to formally declare they don't support terrorists... Why, without a great deal of effort, one could argue that's a declaration that they do...

#7 Nope. Ain't doing it. The ACLU may be about civil liberties but they surely have little to do with protecting the civil liberties of Americans.

#8 In truth, most of the women lawyers in the ACLU are "industrial" looking, or angry¹ anti-male lesbians, so, they want an Islamofascist takeover of the USA so all women will be forced to wear burquas, and level the playing field. Sort of a Socialism of Looks thing...

1- Hold on - before you call me a homophobe - Not all lesbians are ugly, angry, or leftist... but the ones in the ACLU... ARE!
