I found this over at The Corner written by Andy McCarthy.
Hypocrisy is on show in a Manhattan courtroom today. The New York Civil Liberties Union will argue for the second day before Judge Richard Berman that the city’s subway bag search policy is an “unjustifiable erosion of the privacy rights of the American public.” Yet take a walk into the NYCLU’s Manhattan headquarters - which it shares with other organizations - and you’ll find a sign warning visitors that all bags are subject to search. One of the city’s lawyers, Jay Kranis, pointed this out yesterday in court while cross-examining a witness. Either the NYCLU believes its headquarters are at greater risk of a terrorist threat than the city’s subway system, or it believes ordinary New Yorkers don’t deserve the same safety precautions that they do.
Isn’t that interesting? The ACLU caught as in a prime example of hypocrisy. Seriously, what kind of terrorists would want to blow up the ACLU? They are one of their best allies. Something has to be wrong here. Perhaps the ACLU are searching bags for crosses and Bibles. I can’t add much to this one, it speaks for itself, and it says a lot about the ACLU’s “principles.” They are most definitely compromised in this case.
