I read the ACLU thing over and over again. Why is it never mentioned that the #1 FP Hero; Rush Limbaugh is a friend of the ACLU also?

Should we stop listening to him also?

THE A.C.L.U. HAS SUPPORTED YOUR LEGAL FIGHT TO KEEP THE MEDICAL RECORDS IN YOUR DRUG CASE PRIVATE. THIS IS NOT A GROUP YOU'RE A FAN OF. DO YOU WELCOME ITS SUPPORT?

"In a situation like this, I think it's safe to say I welcome its support, and I don't find it hypocritical at all, because I am not anti-A.C.L.U. If the A.C.L.U. wants to go after, say, Nativity scenes or this sort of thing, I may take issue, but there are other areas where I've supported things it has done."

I am a person. The ACLU has done many things I approve of and of course many things I don’t approve of.

The NRA is a single issue group. As I would not expect the national right to life coalition to support a candidate particularly a third party presidential candidate who was associated with Planned Parenthood nor would I expect the NRA to support a candidate particularly a third party candidate who was associated with the ACLU.

But then maybe I am wrong in my impression the ACLU does not consider the right to bear arms a civil liberty?
