The American Civil Liberties Union is using sophisticated technology to collect a wide variety of information about its members and donors in a fund-raising effort that has ignited a bitter debate over its leaders' commitment to privacy rights.

The mantra of all Leftists: "Do as I say! Not as I do!"

BWAHAHAHAHA!!

The ALCU is hoisted on it's own petard. Lovely!!

I am ROFL.

[marmar]

I wonder who is paying for this????????

[Rockitz]

Can you say Hypocrisy?

What I don't see brought out is that these database marketing firms can do a 'negative search' deleting their known donors and members to identify other prospects--and do opposition research on their known or prospective enemies. I know about this, having owned a small firm years ago that pioneered in the field....

Liberals make rules for the rest of us. They don't live by their own rules. What the ACLU is doing is completely in character with the conduct of the modern Left.

The issue has attracted the attention of the New York attorney general, who is looking into whether the group violated its promises to protect the privacy of its donors and members.

Silly fool .... you only have rights if the ACLU allows you to have them

From time to time, I’ll post or ping on noteworthy articles about politics, foreign and military affairs. FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.

Hmmmmm? More of the left's - do as we say - not as we do!

[jwalburg]

The organization has been shaken by infighting since May

This was the most promising part of the whole article.

One of my Law Professors said that she would give us an Afor the course if we would send in our applications to become members of the

All Communist Lawyers United

I refused and got a B, but saved myself the $120.00 Student membership fee, I feel like I made out on that one.

[superskunk]

I thought these idiots claimed to be for civil rights, including right to privacy. Typical liberal hypocrits.

[microgood]

I wonder if the ACLU could figure out how to sue itself?

[Texas_Jarhead]

Hypocrisy and secret meetings from the left? I could have never imagined it was possible.

Lordy, they may "get it" after all!

What happens, in the end, with "free speech for me, and not for thee"?

And, what happens to the "useful idiots" after their usefulness has expired?

And, what about "all animals are equal. Except that some animals are more equal than others."?

And, after all, what about the 100 million who were slaughtered by the communists from 1900 to 1999? A few eggs?

Will these fools will ever learn? Or will natural selection take it's course?

A day after The New York Times disclosed its participation in late July, the organization withdrew from the charity drive and has since filed a lawsuit with other charities to contest the watch list requirement.

What does this mean?

[Lancey Howard]

If my understanding is correct, the ACLU could sue itself for this breach of donor privacy and then collect huge attorneys' fees from the taxpayers for instituting a lawsuit which improves the common good (or some such horse manure).
