Being conservative doesn't mean you have to be stupid and mindlessly parrot the party line...or does it?
Did you join FR just so you post this?
Sure, they often take on unpopular causes that make me gag, and too often they get caught between a rock and a hard place...but such is life.
It is not that they go after unpopular causes. They take the wrong side of popular causes. Why did they force LA county to take a small cross off of their seal? Why do they side with Michael Newdow? Why do they fight every little facet of religion in this country? Why do they favor gays, NAMBLA and illegal aliens? These are simply unpopular causes?
I believe that virtually everyone on this board supports the general concept of civil liberties, and would be the first to scream bloody murder and go running to the ACLU (if necessary) were their civil liberties being violated.
NO WAY! NOT ME! AND NOT MANY OTHERS EITHER!
I would run to the
ACLJ.
