That's funny.

Amazing how things shift depending on who is in power.

I would say just the contrary. This is a very staunch left wing position. (Even more so than before.) It should generate even more Left$$$.

As a liberal, I vigorously defend your right to make dumb posts on Pace Advantage. Happy now?

It’s not like there’s a shortage of organizations willing to fight for right wing ideals-if you can call them that.

I guess my feeling is those donating need to see some results for their money. I don't think they are getting near the results they hoped to. And will probably get even worse if Trump gets to appoint another one or two supreme court justices.

You could be far more learned on this topic than I.

My opinion is based upon the fact that the ACLU is pretty much a one-of-a-kind org.

Thanks for confirming the ACLU is an [extreme] left wing organization. (Oh...wait...I bet you consider them to be moderates, don't you?)

It certainly is. It's just a hunch I have. In that respect it's like the UN
