I will certainly concede that the ACLU supports democratic party issues for the most part. I don't know what information to extrapolate from that fact.
Well, let's see.
Civil liberties:
I think it is okay to burn an American flag, so long as you don't burn MY American flag.
Open government:
The ACLU believes that the Freedom of Information Act is a good tool to peer into the working of our government. I agree.
Freedom of Speech:
Some Republicans have, recently, been known to attempt to curtail criticism of executive policy for various reasons (wartime, patriotism, etc) but I think that it should always be okay to criticize policy. My friends kept telling me to shut up when I was complaining about Clinton's little "Wag the Dog" adventure in Kosovo. They also are tired of hearing me complain about Iraq policy.

Please don't: concede points I haven't made - that's called changing the subject.
Please do: answer the question.

But their stance on the second amendment wipes out any good that they might have done and then some. And that's before we tally their universal, no exceptions stand on Christian culture in American public life.
The second amendment is America's first freedom. Anyone who fails to understand this is a political liability waiting to happen. The ACLU actively works against the second amendment. They're forging our chains as we speak.

You don't know what "curtailed speech" is unless you've been to a leftist dominated college campus recently.
