Since I cannot post over at STACLU, and Jay has a spot in the rotation here, I will be attempting to fill his shoes today and talk about the ACLU.

Several things have hit the news regarding their fight against American civil liberties for average Americans, which also illustrates how they are striving to change the American dream and American laws through the courts.

American Daily has an article about the deficit and the monetary drain that the United Nations, Planned Parenthood and even the ACLU have on American the taxpayer.

Another unquenchable budget drain is the ACLU. Eighty percent of their budget directly supports its litigation. Unquestionably, the past ACLU has aided unfair racial practices, and ‘Americans with Disabilities’ concerns. But lately, they want to delete “One Nation, Under God” from the “Pledge of Allegiance”, erase “In God We Trust” from our currency, and destroy all plaques that mention God that are found in public places. People have voted to unconstitutionally fund their activities under the Civil Rights Attorney’s Fees Awards Act of 1976. In other words, the ACLU is using this law to recover all attorney fees associated with suits against the boy scouts, suits for the homosexual agenda, and those involving God. Few know the exact amount. And the ACLU, itself, says they have 400,000 paying members.

Frightening!

Signon Sandiego talks about how the ACLU is calling their requirement for a police chief needing to be a resident for a year, ‘unconstitutional’.

HONOLULU – The American Civil Liberties Union says it’s looking into the constitutionality of Kauai officials limiting their search for a new police chief to locals.

Deputy County Attorney Rosa Flores says Kauai police commissioners must follow state law, which dictates that all appointed department heads be residents of the state for at least one year.

But to hell with that law, the ACLU would rather see a police chief be an illegal alien. *snark*
Georgia School district settles

The White County, Ga., school district will set up an antibullying program at White County High School and pay $10,000 to a group of students who sued for the right to have a gay-straight alliance, the White County News reported Tuesday.

The payment and antibullying program, which will also be established at White County’s ninth-grade academy, is part of a settlement reached between the parties. The settlement will become official when all parties sign it, the News reported. The deal also includes the school district paying more $168,000 in court costs to the American Civil Liberties Union, which assisted the students in their legal efforts to form the alliance.

What a huge settlement when you take it altogether! And what a waste! It’s no wonder people are afraid of getting sued and school districts are bowing down to the political correctness movement of the rights of special interest groups. The ACLU has a big legal club it waves around to threaten people with. And it freely wields that club, using taxpayer dollars.
