-We are a broad group of longtime ACLU loyalists– members, donors, supporters and activists, including former staff and members of the national or affiliate boards. We are listed at the conclusion of this statement. Many of us have been steadfast ACLU supporters and activists for decades. We do not take this step lightly.
We believe strongly in the ACLU and believe the ACLU is especially important now during a time of grave and systemic attacks on civil liberties by the national government. But an ACLU compromised by its repeated failures to practice what it preaches will be unable to resist these attacks for long. Our credibility and effectiveness depend upon our consistency of principle.
We come together now, reluctantly but resolutely, not to injure the ACLU but to restore its integrity, and its consistency of principle and remedy its failure to apply to itself core civil liberties principles that it insists everyone else observe. The failure to practice what we preach– until publicly embarrassed– has already done grievous injury to the ACLU and ultimately threatens its historic mission.
We applaud the ACLU’s recent fundraising successes , but they cannot compensate for or justify persistent breaches of principle or the abandonment of honesty when those breaches are revealed. The ACLU now stands exposed, and widely ridiculed, for repeatedly acting in contempt of its own core principles, and for chilling and even attempting to prohibit dissent within its own ranks.
Over the past three years, these breaches of principle include the ACLU’s approval of grant agreements that restrict speech and associational rights; efforts by management to impose gag rules on staff and to subject staff to email surveillance; a proposal to bar ACLU board members from publicly criticizing the ACLU; and informal campaigns to purge the ACLU of its internal critics.
All of these breaches, as well as others, violate the ACLU’s historic commitment to free speech. We take little comfort from the fact that some were reversed after bad publicity and donor complaints.
We reject the claim that the ACLU is injured not by its unprincipled, anti-libertarian actions, but by those who disclosed or criticized them. Repeated breaches of principle by the ACLU leadership have been fundamental and cannot simply be attributed to isolated lapses in judgment: they reflect basic disrespect for the values that the ACLU was created to defend.
This has gone on for so long, and has become so pervasive, that we now believe that only a change in leadership will preserve the ACLU and insure its future as the nation’s leading civil liberties group.
We call upon responsible members of the national board and the entire ACLU family to recognize and remedy this crisis before it is too late.

- mission statement from Save The ACLU

I would suggest that it's more than a coincidence that the ACLU's ongoing nation-damaging 'defense' of civil liberties (the innocent should have the first and foremost right not to be murdered by terrorists) coiincides with the fact that the organization itself has become a gulag of intolerance.

Unread by man perhaps, but God read every one.

Sure hope they don't end up on Ebay.

Cartoon drawn in pencil on the back of a postcard with a little color thrown in via photoshop. This was a preliminary sketch for an upcoming toon on the South Dakota abortion vote, but I think it works just fine as an image on its own. The actual South Dakota toon will feature an appearance by Alan Keyes.

Revised the first Michael J. Fox / Backwards To The Future toon, which can be seen below. A Neverborn Halloween cartoon is also in progress; hopefully I'll have that online by Tuesday morning.

Hillary Chipmunk

I'd like to work Hillary Clinton into a number of future cartoons, and rather than just produce a Mort Drucker/Dick Wright type likeness I'd like to do something a little different.

Still developing the final likeness. The above sketch has more of Hillary's current hairstyle. Once I get close to what I'm looking for I'll develop the above drawings into some sort of situational 'Hillary Chipmunk' cartoon.
