After the ACLU won that case and the School Board ignored the court ruling, Louisiana ACLU chief Joe Cook called for them to be jailed and compared them to terrorists. Mr. Cook is currently leading an attack on plan for a Katrina memorial paid for with private funds, to be erected on private land, simply because it is in the shape of a cross and might offend some sensitive passerby. When valedictorian of Foothill High, Brittany McComb, decided to share her faith voluntarily at her graduation ceremony, the ACLU said it was the right call to pull the plug.

But the hypocrisy does not end there. When it comes to protecting religious expression the ACLU has proven itself to be number one in America&#8217;s religious censors.

There is currently legislation in the House introduced by Representive Hostettler that hopes to remedy its abuse.
