While quite often their lawsuits annoy me, just as often I am in complete agreement with them. That sounds about right to me. If I were always happy with them, I think something would be wrong. I also think that there has been a general move towards conservatism in this country, so their agenda has become more liberal. If the country moves to a more liberal stance, I am sure you will see a more conservative agenda.
I recently heard a representative of the ACLU say that their greatest fear is that the KKK or a Neo-Nazi group that is being denied their rights will come to the ACLU for assistance, and they will have no choice but to help. I found that refreshing and disturbing.
