How About A Union of Liberty-Conscious Americans?

Posted on | April 2, 2010 | 9 Comments

by Smitty

The ULCA, i.e. ACLU spelled backwards, could be founded by lawyers who grasp the Constitution, and help defend American civil liberties in a manner that actual Americans find intelligible.

Just a thought, echoed by one President to whom BHO is never compared:

“The name of American, which belongs to you, in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of Patriotism.”
–George Washington

Back in the modern day, do avail yourself of this Trifecta episode, which is a fine pick-me-up.

    The Week In Review – How Will The Republicans Get Their Grove Back? Who Or What, Is Stopping RNC Chairman Michael Steele, From Pitching That Huge GOP Party Tent? Why is Tucker Carlson Firing Into That Same Tent?

    I don’t as a rule critique Republicans.

    A Union of Liberty Conscious Americans. That would be the Tea Party groups, wouldn’t it?

    “…lawyers that grasp the Constitution…”
    and choose not to subvert it; now there would be a short list.

    LFOD, no — because the proposed union would be an organization with leaders recognized by its members, as opposed to self-proclaimed “leaders” recognized only by Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself).
