This will be funny !! I am not a supporter of the ACLU but they have at times stepped up to bat for the little guy so they may not be 100 % bad.

The Young Conservatives of Texas Autin campus beleives that the ACLU is somewhere left of the Bolsheviks !!

Does anyone think that this group is un-fair to the ACLU ? Or is the ACLU really a Communist front organization ( that's from the fifties)

Tony McDonald, chairman of the Young Conservatives of Texas branch on the Austin campus said =

more damaging info on the ALCU

If Roger Baldwin really said this he must have been one of the stupidest people alive in the 1930's. The year 1934 was just one year after the Greatt FAMINE perpetrated by the Russians and they killed 10 million Ukrainians so Stalin could achieve Comminist collectivization. So in Baldwin's (Mr ALCU'S) logic 10 million people had the freedom to die.

So maybe the detractors of the ACLU are correct ACLU = American Commuinist Loser Union.

Give the kids a break. They go to the most liberal college in the region and live in the most liberal city. Poor babies.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Nash_Baldwin

Roger Nash Baldwin (January 21, 1884 – August 26, 1981) was a noted civil libertarian, pacifist, and social activist who held Communist views in his youth, yet continued to promote a Socialist agenda. He was one of the founders of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), and its executive director until 1950; many of the ACLU's original landmark cases took place under his direction.

Baldwin's Communist beginning and distinct socialist view's still have power over the organization much as like Ayn Rand still hold over the objectivist, and Adam Smith still holds over the free marketers. Now is everyone in the ACLU a communist? No, and I doubt that is their point, they seem to simply be illustrating a point, its usually called illustrating absurdity by being absurd.

Here are a few of Baldwin's own words.

"I have continued directing the unpopular fight for the rights of agitation, as director of the American Civil Liberties Union.... I am for socialism, disarmament and ultimately for abolishing the state itself as an instrument of violence and compulsion. I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class and sole control by those who produce wealth. Communism is, of course, the goal."-From the Harvard Class Book of 1935, entitled "Thirty Years Later", spotlighting Baldwin's class of 1905 on its thirtieth anniversary.

"I saw in the Soviet Union many opponents of the regime. I visited a dozen prisons — the political sections among them. I saw considerable of the work of the OGPU. I heard a good many stories of severity, even of brutality, and many of them from the victims. While I sympathized with personal distress I just could not bring myself to get excited over the suppression of opposition when I stacked it up against what I saw of fresh, vigorous expressions of free living by workers and peasants all over the land. And further, no champion of a socialist society could fail to see that some suppression was necessary to achieve it. It could not all be done by persuasion. "- From Baldwin's Freedom of the USA and the USSR, writen in September of 1934 in Soviet Russia Today.

Where have all the Conservatives Gone?

Rogert Nash Baldwin said the following pro-Soviet things. Besides the murder of national minorities the Russian and Communist controlled Soviet Union did allow people to express themselves in any language they wanted as long as it wa Russian.

I understand that Baldwin recanted later but that was too late.

If Roger Baldwin found it ok o murder millions of people I am sure that he also found it ok that manger scenes be destroyed or hrown out of "public" places. This guy had to be one horrible excuse for a human being.

Southwestern University up in Georgetown is more liberal than UT. There is a correlation to the prestige of a university and its liberality.
You're right about Austin, however. Thank God!!
It is a great place to live.
Expensive... but great.

As an evangelical I think this is very funny and makes a great point. Now if they got into the ACLUs support for child porn then they would be going too far.
