ACLU vs Al Qaeda: This is the most dangerous organization in America

Quoth David Anderson at Delaware Politics:

The ACLU has done more damage to America than any other organization. It has distorted the liberty protections of the Constitution into chains of oppression whenever it is allowed to go unchecked.


I looked into it, and by God he's right. Look at what that commie bastard scum group has been up to lately:

ACLU files brief on behalf of Fox News against FCC fining the network for fleeting expletives in live broadcasts.

ACLU goes to court to keep Yup'ik-speaking American citizens in Alaska from being disenfranchised by the State government in violation of the Voting Rights Act.

ACLU challenges repressive law in Annapolis MD that gives the government the power to say who you may and may not have as a guest in your own home.

ACLU advocates for disabled public school students who, research shows, suffer corporal punishment at a far greater rate than non-disabled students.

ACLU leads the fight to give States, not the Drug Enforcement Administration, the power to make decisions on the use of medica marijuana.

ACLU argues that Congress should end the sentence of life without possibility of parole for children.

Oppression all around.

Thanks for keeping us safe from the Constitution, David.

Oh: and just in case you forgot, David: the ACLU cannot legislate nor hand down judicial decisions. They actually have to work within the existing system and convince other people--judges and legislators--to make the changes they propose.

Again: too much nuance on my part for either wing of the Demopublican Party.

Steve do you think David Anderson has ever read the Constitution? If he had he would know the ACLU is exactly what you stated, an advocate for those without a voice and for whom society has contempt.

A Libertarian Martin Luther King Jr. Day post

In which we travel into interesting waters . . . (for a fairly long trip, so be prepared) Dr. King's 1968 book, Where do we go from here:  chaos or community? , is profound in that it criticizes anti-poverty programs for their piecemeal approach, as John Schlosberg of the Center for a Stateless Society  [C4SS] observes: King noted that the antipoverty programs of the time “proceeded from a premise that poverty is a consequence of multiple evils,” with separate programs each dedicated to individual issues such as education and housing. Though in his view “none of these remedies in itself is unsound,” they “all have a fatal disadvantage” of being “piecemeal,” with their implementation having “fluctuated at the whims of legislative bodies” or been “entangled in bureaucratic stalling.”   The result is that “fragmentary and spasmodic reforms have failed to reach down to the profoundest needs of the poor.” Such single-issue approaches also have “another common failing — ...

Libertarian National Committee Deathwatch Part 1

As the LNC continues to lurch towards collapse, with the latest news of mass layoffs at HQ, I've decided to begin tracking those things leading the national party to irrelevance, even as state and local parties gain power. As news, rumors and rhetoric break out, I shall chronicle them in this ongoing series at Delaware Libertarian. Organizations approaching failure have a number of characteristics. One of the most striking is renunciation of their purpose and effort to reinvent themselves as a "me-too" provider of services in the marketplace. In this, the LNC has been on a collision course with destiny for a while now. Recently, for example, it hired Republican Party web site developer TerraEclipse to redesign the LNC web site . Terra created a web site very similar to those of the clients it brags most about -- far-right Republican conservatives like Tom McClintock and BJ Lawson. A quick look at the web site they built for the LNC is instructive. The tagline on the ...

The disturbing decline of the Delaware blogosphere: a very unfortunate Around the Horn (even if it's not Friday)

I've noticed a change in my own blog-checking habits over the past several weeks, and I don't know if it's just me or the reality of the last month of a divisive political campaign. I automatically used to check out Delawareliberal first and several times a day, because it was where I could find edgy, thought-provoking, and (dare I say it) funny banter going on. These days visit several other spots first, and my visits to DL are both shorter and less engaged. Why? Because the combination of invading neo-con commenters with the stridency of some of the major contributors has led to such pleasant exchanges as a post dedicated to labeling another blogger racist by donviti, whose own sense of provocative humor is generally so far out there that he makes John Belushi doing Samurai bartender on the SNL look positively pro-Asian. Or I can find Delawaredem and jason periodically spewing the idea that anybody who is not a liberal or progressive Democrat is somehow a non-American,...
