Thoughts on the future
Posted on August 2, 2005
I’ve been thinking, and as we all know, that can be dangerous. What if several of the non-A-List grassroots websites got together and collaborated on the ultimate outside of the beltway website to educate people about judicial activism? All of the contributors (stoptheaclu.com would be at the top of the list) would keep their own sites and particular expertise and emphasis, but the “hub” site would be the place to find all of them.
For instance, www.CourtZero.org tends to appeal to those with the time to get into the details of judicial opinions (which means it sure doesn’t appeal to everyone) while stoptheaclu.com and stoptheaclu.org both focus (like a laser beam, I’ll have you know) on the activist groups that do harm to our liberties. There are other “C-List” sites I have in mind as well, each with their own unique contributions to our struggle to revive our dying Constitution.
I’m just thinking out loud. I assume that is allowed on my first post.
Thanks to Jay for letting me chime in.

Good first post, perhaps it will spark other ideas. People need to get involved.
Just thinking out loud too Arr.
Are you starting a website? And this sounds good, but in order to work don’t you think it would need some capitol, the initial push costs money. I would think we would need mentions and or buy ads on the biggies, Michelle Malkin et al.
What are you thoughts on implimentation?
BTW great first post, thinking outside the box and all.
Well, I already do have a website (I may mention that from time to time), and have, in fact, advertised on Michelle Malkin and a bunch of others .
I’m pleased with my websites, and others like this one. I just started thinking that, a year-and-a-half after starting CourtZero.org, it dawns on me that there are a number of smart guys and gals out there approaching the same problem from the grassroots, and from different angles.
I wonder if we could do something useful with those disparate efforts.
Well its gonna take more than capitol from my pocket. I’m advertising as much as I can afford here. It’s gonna take some givers to raise the cash for a project like you are talking about.
I am all for it. I just know that we are struggling here to keep what adverts we do have with very little flowing in to help out.
I would be willing to support the effort, with my limited ability to contribute.
Why not set up a consortium of sorts - invite a representative from all groups that are interested - have a meeting of the minds and see where it goes from there? If a consensus is reached on an agreed upon issue that would be beneficial to all of the organizations to support - it would seem logically that the support would follow. Have each representative bring 3 issues (max) that their group would support if taken to a larger audience, determine through general consensus “the issue”, have a one representative - one vote board established and the rest could be history as they say. (OK - My out of box musings are probably way out of the box).
Great post - got us thinking large anyhow!
Actually Kathy, that aint a bad idea.
Great idea! Please include connections to past history when religion was forced to abandonment and governments ruled with iron hands. Also, look forward to the future and synthesize predictable outcomes. How about the now? Where’s AMERICAN history, assimilation, singing the National Anthem,etc.? Get down to grass roots effects of ACLU and other organizations. Also, how about publishing biographical information about the political and religious affiliations of the ACLU boards? I’m not afraid of truth, and I bet the great American public isn’t either. Good luck to your idea. I think it’s great!
