It's been decades since the ACLU was a truly non-partisan organization dedicated to the maintenance of our constitutional rights. But, as Dershowitz points out in this op-ed he penned for The Hill, the ACLU has now made it official policy to intervene in partisan politics.

Recently I have been seeing and hearing Dershowitz.

I think that on the road to Damascus, he saw a light and he is no longer the man he once was.

He is in fact different.

I lived through the years of Clinton.

Nice spin. I don’t dismiss this guys opinion based on that book which is what you did and now you want to generalize the issue and make it about me.

I gave my opinion of you and i see no reason to change it.
