Thank you for the studious effort. I just may need a bit more skoolin'.
Lol...I see you have a sense of humor and that's a good thing!
I only want those who oppose bad ACLU policy to base their opposition on fact. That's why I credit the ACLU when they deserve it. I would like to see the ACLU take an active role in defending the 2nd amendment, the original intent of the Commerce Clause and self determination of the states.

The membership determines the priority of cases and liberal members outnumber conservative members...but the conservative base is growing.

As long as the ACLU uses the Constitution as an ideal (or pretends to), they are bound to at least occasionally do something right.

The only thing is, my impression is that their actual intent is to use the Constitution in such a way that it would destroy the original concept and ideals for which the document was written.

I don't know whether or not the ACLU follows the "Constitution is a living breathing document" mantra, but I assume they do, adapting it as needed to fit whatever cause they may espouse.

I strikes me that there is not very much hard knowledge here on FR regarding the actual inner thinking of ACLU leadership, beyond the observation of their actions.

I personally know only one ACLU card carrying member; he is an avowed socialist. A very nice person, strangely.
