Barr works with the ACLU to protect our 4th Amendment freedoms and reverse the abuses of the grossly misnamed Patriot Act.

Mr. Barr was not just siding with the ACLU in this effort fight this assault on our liberty. He was also siding with groups like the American Conservative Union, Americans for Tax Reform, the Free Congress Foundation, the Second Amendment Foundation, and other solidly conservative groups. Nor do they mention that bedrock conservative groups like the Christian Coalition, the National Rifle Association, Gun Owners of America, the National Association of Manufacturers, the Family Research Council, the Southeastern Legal Foundation, the Business-Industry Political Action Committee, the National Right to Life Committee, to name just a few, have also worked with the ACLU to protect a Constitutional right.

I suppose you don’t think those groups are conservative either.

I guess you support the McCain/Finegold assault on the First Amendment because the ACLU fought it.

Since when did the ACLU last stand on the conservative side? Apparently you haven’t seen what they’ve been up to in the last several years! They did stand on the conservative side on a couple of things in the past, but very, very few!

They’re on the far-left, homosexual rights, non-Christian, non-American side most of the time! Although Mr. Barr doesn’t go along with much of that, to his credit. I still like him for many things. Just not some things. I think he got into the race too late. F. Thompson didn’t win for that reason, either! How is B.Barr going to do any better?
