ACLU: Enemy of the state?
So I'm reading yet another "conservative" blog and see this add for a T shirt with "ACLU enemy of the state" across the chest. I click on the add and get taken here. I suppose it sounds cute, but let's not be mislead. The ACLU is not the enemy of the state. They are the state's biggest friends. They advocate policies that lead to a greater and greater impact of the state on your life. With rare exception, they advocate against the liberty of those who would use their liberty for good, and for those who would use their liberty for evil.
As such, they serve as the ultimate straw man. They posit an argument to Christians that your choices are either Libery with terror and crime, or Safety with the government watching over you. This is a false choice, but one they make over and over by their actions. One they make extremely well.
ACLU: enemy of the state? I only wish it were true...
