ACLU Wants National Security 'Transparent'
This
press release is further proof that the American Civil Liberties Union's leaders are either spectacularly clueless or actually in league with America's enemies [emphasis added]:
WASHINGTON -- Appearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee today, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales failed to answer direct, yet simple questions from senators surrounding the warrantless surveillance of Americans by the National Security Agency. The American Civil Liberties Union condemned that lack of transparency, noting that part of the role of the executive is to provide the legislative branch with ample information for proper oversight.
The Attorney General actually
refused to describe details of a secret program vital to our national security in an open, televised meeting?
I'll go with the "spectacularly clueless" hypothesis, but only because I believe that the ACLU is such an intellectually challenged group of pathetic morons that no enemy of the US would want their assistance.
Via Stop the ACLU.

Many people don't know that the ACLU and other protest groups receive large donations from countries that are enemies of the US. Cuba is said to be a major contributor. I can't quote the source on that because it's been too long but I remember the response was something along the lines of "we'll take donations where we can get them but that doesn't mean we support what they do."
Don't think for a second that these groups are only misguided people who believe they're looking out for America. Some are involved explicitly because they know what they are doing is bad for America.

It's just possible that one organization could have both -- clueless dopes AND collaborators -- just as there were both Soviet Agents AND "Usefull Idiots" during the cold war.

Good info slug; this needs to be repeated, with facts and figures, as much as possible. The ACLU are known enemy agents, it's just that nobody has the guts to call a spade a spade these days it seems.
