ACLU Fighting for Our Soldiers

The ACLU tends to get a great deal of scorn. In fact sites like stoptheaclu.com are designed to bring them down. And while many of the issues they get involved in seem ridiculous, they do serve a purpose (e.g. Brown v Board), particularly as a counterweight to extreme groups like the American Family Association, which is trying to ban porn from military bases. The following link leads to an excellent post about the story...http://www.alternet.org/blogs/peek/67013/.

These soldiers are expected to fight two failing wars and sacrifice their first amendment rights? We cannot afford them one little pleasure? Some might argue that the porn increases rapings. But how does taking it away and expecting the soldiers to bottle up their sexual frustrations make any sense? We could give them more time at home with their wives and girlfriends, but that type of rhetoric is anti-troop and defeatist. And don't these idiots at the AFA have anything better to worry about? Perhaps whether our men and women should be over there in the first place. I am so sick of these holier-than-thou religious groups trying to dictate their self-righteousness to everyone else.
