STOP THE ACLU BLOGBURST: WHAT WE ARE UP AGAINST


Unfortunately, I am working crazy hours again this week. (Wed. 4PM -Thurs. 8AM, back at 4 PM Thurs. until midnight!) Enjoy the drawing! Here's the "late edition", updated early Friday...

To understand the magnitude of the foe we face in the ACLU, read this excerpt from a CRA news release:

Peter B. Lewis, chairman and CEO of Progressive Auto Insurance, recently donated $8 million to the ACLU. In 2001, he donated $7 million to match a $14 million challenge from the Ford Foundation.
"This large donation from one person shows us that the ACLU is even more dangerous than ever," said Dr. D. James Kennedy, founder and president of the CENTER FOR RECLAIMING AMERICA. "With millions of dollars in reserve, they can—and have—intimidated local governments into backing down without even seeing their case go to court. For instance, a small-town mayor from Ohio rescinded his own 'Bible Week' proclamation, simply because he got a threatening letter from the ACLU.
"How many more such attacks will happen with this $8 million donation?" Dr. Kennedy asked.

TOO MANY.

Cannabis News has an interesting article explaining that most of Mr. Lewis' 2001 donation went to the organization's drug-policy litigation project, which is challenging such practices as drug testing in schools and restrictions on medical marijuana. It also mentions that his contribution increased the ACLU's endowment fund to almost 37 million. (-hat tip to Google for both of these stories)

The scary part is how much its finances have grown since 2001, as noted by BobG over at SSOA in today's blogburst. Still, I look at the ACLU as just another goliath to be slain, as was the USSR, and as the Islamofascists will be. Speaking of which, I wonder if Mr. Lewis cares about the ACLU's support of terrorists' rights at Gitmo, and opposition to reasonable attempts to thwart the next terrorist attack here in the US.

All of this brings me back to this week's STOP THE ACLU blogburst drawing, which was drawn shortly after the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing, while I was in the USMC. I wanted to take on those bastards back then, as symbolized in the drawing. Today, as we are finally engaging that enemy, the ACLU is taking their side. Thus, I see STOP THE ACLU as the hero, diving into the fight against unimagineable odds.

The Biden Record, and the Democrats Who Supported It, Pt. 4: How Biden Blew Up the Economy With Inflation

   The US economy is in chaos. This is not "spin," or "opinion," but a fact. Some people aren't feeling it as hard as others, because they were well-off before the inflation started. Unfortunately, the worst is yet to come, and it will affect those "well-off" people, to a greater degree than it does currently, as the recession sets in. It also will present a crisis for government, as the interest rates for the chronic borrowing that sustains all of their largesse double, triple, or even quadruple. How did we get here, after what was shaping up as a robust recovery from the pandemic response inspired recession?    When Pres. Biden was elected, almost every policy that had been in place was reversed. We've looked at the disatrous results of this on the southern border , but what's happened to our economy has impacted many more Americans. It started out on day one, when Biden killed the KeystoneXL pipeline, followed by freezing new federal leases

The Biden Debacle Part II

  In my previous post, I wrote about Pres. Biden's disastrous policy at the border, as well as it's impact on the spread of COVID. I also noted his false promise of bipartisanship, and embrace of the far left agenda. This post will deal with some of that agenda, including it's impact on the economy, law enforcement, race relations, education and the military. They're all interconnected in no small way, and Pres. Biden is making a mess of them all. With the left wing ascendant in his own party, he has found it easier to go along with them, rather than work with Republicans, even when they propose policies that a majority of Democrats support. The economy was recovering before Biden assumed office, and yet he continues to push a long wish list of leftist policies in the name of "recovery." The extension of unemployment benefits is a good example of how they can backfire. While he denies that the extra payments were keeping people from returning to work, the sta

The Bogus Charges Against Pres. Trump, Part IV

      One can say many critical things about former Pres. Trump, many of which may be true. However, there is one thing that also is true, but is not critical: He has been the most unjustly accused president of the modern era. It's a fact: The "Russian collusion" allegations, which were not true. The two "impeachments," that didn't follow the regular House rules so blatantly that they were dismissed by the Senate both times, and now, a Manhattan DA has indicted Trump on the most spurious of grounds.    It's about time that DA Alvin Bragg was thrown out of office. This "prosecutorial overreach" should just be the final straw, because he has enough reasons preceding this. Abusing "discretion" to cover a "blanket" ban on prosecuting any specific offense is an abuse of power. He doesn't get to order his ADA's how to use their discretion, on specific crimes. It's incredibly ironic that he now is trying to upgrade a mi
