The ACLU lost its way a long time ago and that's not really news because it's in the "good" company of most non-profits.
We all "know" they are rotten but we are still "shocked" when we learn exactly what they do - aka "How the sausage is made".
It reminds me that time ( possibly now ) when Politico's "journalists" went around the World asking money from Governments and other public institutions in order for them to write good things about them ( visibility!! ) but also "asking" money to not write bad things about them..
Sometimes the drunk bums around the corner are 100% right: this shit stinks!!!
