As much as I'd like to see the ACLU utterly destroyed, I think this is just so much wishful thinking. It's just too entrenched and powerful. Fight it yes, but destroy it? Sadly, that's doubtful.

Well anyone can say what they want about him but Senator Joe McCarthy scared the bejeeezus out the communist party in the US.

That one question they all hated

Are you now or have you ever been a member of the communist party?

So all of the card carrying HollyWeed and Northeast Communist tore up there cards and went underground - did they go to Russia - no - did they stop being communist - no - where are they - they are hiding out in the Democrat party.

The Communist Party in the US is now made up of the Democrat Party - The ACLU as the legal arm and the MSM as the propoganda arm.

Left - Liberal - Democrat - Socialist - Communist.

Shakespeare reverbrates in so many of our commonly used phrases that half of the time we are not even aware of it.
"My Kingdom for a horse..."
"All's well that ends well "
"Once more into the breach "

On and on. I'm no Shakespearing expert, but never miss an opportunity.

Yep!

I'm not an expert either, but I have read all of the plays and sonnets over the past 10 (or so) years. Hated having to read the plays in HS. Funny how we change as we get older. :o)

Illegal aliens, paedophiles, mass murderers, all are grist for the ACLU mill.

But Christians, the Bible and America's Judaeo-Christian traditions are all anathema to them.

If the House Un-American Activities Committee was resurrected, the ACLU would be #1 on their list, followed by NAMBLA.

What once may have been an organization dedicated to high ideals has now degenerated into a literal threat to our liberty.

They have always been a Marxist organization!!! They were set up to function as a Nihilist organization regarding the United States. They have done that job well... Resource item:

***************************************

Unholy Alliance
by David Horowitz
Regnery Publishing, Inc.; ISBN: 089526076X
Hardcover - 256 pages (September 2004)


In this tour de force on the most important issue of our time, David Horowitz, confronts the paradox of how so many Americans, including the leadership of the Democratic Party, could turn against the War on Terror. He finds an answer in a political Left that shares a view of America as the “Great Satan” with America’s radical Islamic enemies. This Left, which once made common cause with Communists, has now joined forces with radical Islam in attacking America’s defenses at home and its policies abroad. From their positions of influence in the university and media culture, leftists have defined America as the “root cause” of the attacks against it. In a remarkable exploration of the “Mind of the Left,” Horowitz traces the evolution of American radicalism from its Communist past to its “anti-war” present. He then shows how this Left was able to turn the Democratic Party presidential campaign around and reshape its views on the War on Terror.

Horowitz’s Unholy Alliance, writes John Haynes, the noted historian of American Communism, “is an insightful, brilliant examination of the mental world of the radical left. Horowitz shows how today’s radicals, unwilling to reflect on the internal flaws that destroyed Marxism-Leninism from within, have embraced an all-consuming nihilism in its place. This has led them to a hatred of American institutions and a solidarity with Islamic terrorists that makes the radical left more properly regarded as dangerous than loony.”

Unholy Alliance is an eye-opening book that should unsettle conventional assumptions and reveals why intellectuals and political leaders who applaud Michael Moore are no laughing matter. As Harvey Klehr, author of Venona: Decoding Soviet Espionage in America, writes, “The world Communist movement may be moribund, but its habits of mind and ideological fantasies have not disappeared. This is a fascinating and depressing account.”

ACLU has ALWAYS been a threat to the Constitution and therefore our freeedom..
From the git-go..

Funny that the ACLU and George Bush(and the republican party) are on the SAME PAGE when it comes to illegal alien insurgents.. and against the Minutemen.. at the very least..

OK then, what is the ACLU's standing to demand the arrest of anyone?

ACLU contributors are 'of a free and open nature, that thinks men honest that but seem to be so, and will as tenderly be led by the nose as asses are…'

Oh, I don't know. Probably the same standing as any other individual or organization to demand anything of anyone. It has no legal basis; it's just grandstanding. C'mon, it's the ACLU!

Personally, I hope our whole corrupt judicial system is also going down. Recent years have showed it is fatally flawed.

"Arizona State Rep. Kyrsten Sinema, under the auspices of the ACLU, demanded Hannity’s arrest."

I'm a born-again Christian, and that prevents me from
vividly descrbing what I think of Krysten Sinema. Let ms
just say that I think Sinema's integrity and character would not stand the probe of a mosquito. Neither, I think, would the character of our local ACLU or its director.

The Reagan Justice Department should have taken care of NAMBLA 25 years ago.

Maybe Jimmy Cahtah's Justice Department should have taken care of NAMBLA, or maybe Bill Clinton's Justice Department should have taken care of NAMBLA.

Reagan's plate was pretty full and he had to deal with a lot of Commie stool pigeons in Congress, like John F. Kerry, in his fight to keep a second Cuba from springing up in Central America, while trying to undermine the Evil Empire the wussie liberal Democrats were so afraid to deal with.

What they leave out of the story is that there is a "no man's land" section that runs between the two countries, so Hannity did not step into Mexico and back into the USA.

But .. even if he did .. they all seem to think it's okay for every ILLEGAL person in the world to do exactly the same thing.

Also .. there is legislation working it's way through congress re helping to shut down the ACLU factory of lawsuits.

How many tachers and administrators who "stand their ground" can they arrest? How many students can they be allowed to inconvenience and injure?

They can arrest and injure as many as the media can ignore. And believe me that's a very large number.
