It's nothing personal:

I just trust the ACLU more than just about any American organisation.

1. He's actually wrong because
he thinks the right to privacy only applies to him.

3. Exactly.
That's why I belong to the ACLU. They actually believe that everybody is entitled to their rights. Rush thinks they only apply to him and other rich conservatives.

The right can say what they want about the ACLU, but they have true values and stick to their guns, even when they are protecting scumbag Republicans.

6. Ditto. Er- Megadittos.
:p

Same here. That's why I like it as well. They simply strive to uphold civil liberties, and they're truly blind as to who they support.

Rush's statements against privacy and the ACLU are wrong, but he does have the right to privacy anyway and the ACLU is right to defend him.

7. As much as he deserves...
Edited on Tue Jan-13-04 12:15 AM by necso
the treatment he has called for, for others, Rush should have every constitutional protection.

I realize that he will learn nothing from it and that he will continue his evil ways. However, as much as we (I) despise him, and as little as he will appreciate it, we should all protect his rights.

8. I think it's hilarious.
A organization, whose principles are very liberal, comes to the aid of a conservative bigot when his rights are about to be trampled on. Rush must be breaking out in hives over this. Talk about what goes around.
