It has been reported that the ACLU Board is now considering endorsing limits on campaign spending. Abrams has been reported (http://reason.com/blog/2010/01/25/liberals-vs-free-speech-aclu-e) as arguing that "The worst thing you could do the absolutely worst thing you could do is transform a civil liberties organization into a liberal political organization."

But this decision has transformed the ACLU into a conservative political organization, working to arm the ultimate enemies of democracy with unlimited monetary and political power.

We are confident the activist community can survive this latest assault on democracy. It will not be easy, but it can be done.

A good first step would be for the ACLU to face reality and now oppose the false claims anti-human money machines have made on our sacred Bill of Rights.
