I note that the ACLU has backed groups such as the Nazis at Skokie. They are among the most idealistic organizations around, and are perfectly willing to tweak the partisan politics of many of their own backers when they see any inconsistency or hypocracy on first amendment and civil rights issues.
I'm very proud of my ACLU. They're the kind of people Jehovah's Witnesses, Telemarketers, Conservative Shock-Jocks, Nazis and other discrete and insular minorities can count on.
