I don't suppose it occurs to you that sometimes the ACLU will take a reasonable position on something, just so it can make itself look more respectable. It's classic bait-and-switch strategy. First you throw out a reasonable position that resonates with a lot of people so they can get media attention, then they use their influence to push a far more subversive agenda.
IOW, as I said earlier in the thread: Sometimes the devil mixes his lies with the truth.
Oh yeah -- I agree with you 100%. There is always a method to the ACLU's madness, while as you say, the devil does indeed "mix his lies with the truth."
