The best answer is eradication of the ACLU altogether, but that is not realistic considering the number of operatives they have smuggled into the judiciary — to say nothing of their coffers, awash in socialist graft and lucre.

Still, I have added my name to the petition at savetheaclu.org and encourage others to do the same. Anything that may disrupt their crusade against our heritage even briefly is a good thing, I say.

Meanwhile, let us support and pray for the success of organizations like stoptheaclu.com and Jay Sekulow’s ACLJ that have taken on the formidable task of going toe-to-toe with the ACLU, fighting fire with fire.

The worst thing we can do is assume that the ACLU will change into something respectable simply because a group of somewhat less despicable ACLU loons has been embarrassed into taking action — action not intended to alter the ACLU’s vile agenda, but merely to tone down its brazenness.

First, congrats on getting in the NYT. Nice work.

I don’t think painting a turd gold makes it any less of a turd, so simply exposing some internal dirty laundry won’t fix the unfixable. Here is the crux of savetheaclu’s campaign (from its website):

“Over the past three years, these breaches of principle include the ACLU’s approval of grant agreements that restrict speech and associational rights; efforts by management to impose gag rules on staff and to subject staff to email surveillance; a proposal to bar ACLU board members from publicly criticizing the ACLU; and informal campaigns to purge the ACLU of its internal critics.”

This group is not rising up to oppose the ACLU’s vigorous defense of child molesters and an organization that has written Getting Away with Child Rape for Dummies. The group is not protesting the ACLU’s support of group “marriages.” They are not criticizing the ACLU’s utter disregard for our national security and the aggressive campaign to challenge EVERY effective counter-terrorism tool available. This groups is not exposing the ACLU’s opposition to school choice and its dedication to make sure even half-born children are slaughtered if it’s the “mother’s” “choice” to order the execution. This group isn’t bothered by the ACLU’s campaign to remove all religous symbols from public grounds regardless of whom these symbols honor or the deep history behind the use of these symbols. They have no problem with the ACLU litigating to leave taxpayers no “choice” as to whether we want to fund inmate abortions and sex-organ mutilation procedures. No need to go on…

The group should receive limited credit for wanting to stick the finger in this particular dike, but it shouldn’t be surprised that this is what it’s come down to. The ACLU is a totalitarian organization, so the fact that its authoritarianism has begun to approach complete metastasis has always been inevitable. Be that as it may, this group is still sold out to the ACLU agenda and should not recieve any sloppy kisses here.
