Didn't see this coming out of the VFW, now did you?

VFW (Volunteers for Welfare)

Why stop there? Kick out the whole ACLU!

Here is one American Legion member who stands four square behind the Legion on this one.

What is needed now is for more large groups to come forward and fight the ACLU.

Just repeal the Civil Rights Act.

As one of those 2.7 million members, that pleases me very much. It's a start.

Here’s how you can support the passage of HR 2679:

[Pajamajan]

"When the mere threat of attorney's fees is so severe that large organizations fear the consequences, then imagine the power and chilling effect it has on elected officials, faced with the threat of court-ordered, taxpayer-paid, attorney fees if they do not surrender to ACLU demands"

This is just WRONG! The ACLU is being allowed to act as an UN-ELECTED tyranny at TAX-PAYER EXPENSE.

Something needs to be done NOW, to stop this. It's THE issue of our time.

CHECK THIS OUT
( Post 14-it's about a religious symbol and the property it was on, that Thomas Jefferson protected and contains a letter from him-8th paragragh).

WHEREAS, the American Civil Liberties Union (the ACLU) has shown itself to be hostile to religious expression by private citizens and the civil rights of people of faith; and WHEREAS, the ACLU has declared war on the Boy Scouts of America, the military of the United States, Christmas displays, public buildings that display the Ten Commandments, and many other American traditions; and WHEREAS, the United States Congress, roughly thirty years ago, passed a provision in United States Code section 1988 that requires taxpayers to pay attorneys in civil rights cases; and WHEREAS, the ACLU has abused that law to make untold millions of dollars simply by suing boy scouts, school children, military academies, cities and towns, with the goal of punishing any who dare to exercise their First Amendment right to religious freedom and expression; and WHEREAS, the vast majority of taxpayers do not want to be forced to pay the ACLU to sue their neighbors and friends in the ACLU's efforts to strip America of all signs of faith; and WHEREAS, the Establisment Clause of the First Amendment was not contemplated when USC section 1988 was passed; THEREFORE, the People of the United States call upon their Congress to amend USC section 1988 so that hostile special interest groups such as the ACLU can no longer be granted taxpayer money to attack Americans and their institutions. We, The People, call upon our elected representatives to amend USC section 1988 so that fees are not awarded to the ACLU or any other plaintiff in Establisment Clause cases. We wish for the Free Expression Clause to implicate at least the same financial incentives as attacks upon faith currently have.

Support the passage of HR 2679. Phone, E-mail, or personally confront your representatives to support this bill. The ACLU is an enemy of America. If your representatives do not support this bill, VOTE THEM OUT OF OFFICE!
