So you agree with McCain/Feingold because the ACLU led the fight against it?
All those rock solid conservative groups are now liberal because they’ve worked with the ACLU? I suppose you think all the FReepers who oppose McCain/Feingold and were hoping the ACLU suit would get it overturned are liberals in your mind too.
Barr and Armey have lifetime ACU ratings of 98% and 97% respectively, but you think they are liberal?
I guess in your world the Republicans who side with Loserman on the war are liberals too and should not work with him on that issue. You can’t have it both ways.
I suppose you have no problem supporting McCain even though he works with Soros and takes money from him. But Barr, who is far and away more conservative than McCain, you have a problem supporting because he worked on the same side as the ACLU, Dick Armey, American Conservative Union, Americans for Tax Reform, the Free Congress Foundation, and the Second Amendment Foundation, on the same issue. Do you also have a problem supporting those groups?
It makes no sense to me at all to refuse to work with someone or some group who agrees with you on one issue just because they disagree with you on everything else.
I would not say that they “led the fight against it.” They got the labor union restrictions and the media restrictions thrown out as unconstitutional. The rest of us, though, are still prohibited from making any meaningful contribution to the political process. The result of their efforts was to tilt the system to the left, just what you would expect from a liberal organization.
