Cruel irony!
They're only evil 99% of the time.
This is just the ACLU trying to clean up its leftist image. It's just for show.
Not really. This is an ACLU promotional move. It gives anti-Constitutionalists ACLU cover to further their extreme socialist agenda.

Hmmm... an interesting way for the ACLU to 'Hush Rush'
Reminds me of an Onion headline from a few years ago: "ACLU Defends Man's Right to Firebomb ACLU Offices"
I say it's good news. It's becoming more and more obvious that Rush's case was political and not criminal.
If the ACLU does well by him, I doubt Rush will have anything negative to say about much that the ACLU says or does for a long time to come. Not only that, he might even try to temper whatever others have to say.
So, maybe the ACLU saw this as an excellent opportunity to stifle a lot of the criticism Rush and a few million dittoheads might have otherwise levied in the near future.
I don't care for the ACLU. I agree, the ACLU is as far left as they can be. HOWEVER, I am glad they, or someone like them exist. Their views, their constant opposition gives me a reason to think over my own position. It merely makes me more sure of where I stand, or on rare occassions, makes me rethink where I stand.
You know, I'm going to get flamed big for this, but what the heck, it's cold and it's Friday!
The ACLU, I think, helped along with Alan Dershowetz(sp?)with getting Jim Bakker's (PTL) sentence lowered. (He was guilty but the sentence went way overboard). I was surprised by both when it happened. The problem is neither helps conservative causes enough to be relevant to me. In the case of the ACLU...it just needs to die. They do way more harm than good.
Other than the fact that they think the Bill of Rights is there to protect socialism.../
IMHO the aclu is a day late and a dollar short. Why are they just coming to Rush's "aid" NOW? How long has his case been in the news, and these commie scum are just now announcing they are going to do something?
HA!
The most they would do is file some phoney "Friend of the Court" brief and blow their own horn. IMO, they just saw the writing on the wall--Rush has this case won with his own lawyers, and the aclu is just piling on so they can show how magnamimous they are.
THE ACLU IS GOING TO COURT TO PROTECT MEDICAL PRIVACY FOR ABORTION RIGHTS NOT RUSH!!!
The fear of the ACLU types is the medical privacy issue which is crucial for keeping abortion procedures out of the eyes of the law.
The ACLU does not care about rush, they are just attending to their leftist agenda. If Rush looses this case, the left looses a shield in their cases.
If Rush is willing to argue that case he should not only have the ACLU on his side but also the Baby Killers at NARAL.
>>But we have always said that the ACLU's real client is the Bill of Rights
That is pure Barbra Streisand (BS). The ACLU's real agenda, from the beginning, is Marxism. If you want confirmation, research how many times the ACLU represented "The Right of the People to Keep and Bear Arms", or "Free Exercise of Religion". They are left-wing, Marxist liars (of course, left-wing, Marxist, and liar are redundant).
Rush may know politics(and I'm not convinced about that), but he knows dick about football =)
