Do you suppose that @Common Sense has nothing negative to say about the ACLU?

The ACLU, like any organization, has its faults...however is a myth that they only protect liberal causes.
The ACLU has advocated for the NRA, Milo Yiannopolis, the tea party, Rush Limbaugh, the Confederate flag and other right wing groups. Not to mention their support of Christian groups
Don’t be silly. The ACLU is considered to be a very left wing organization. If you can’t even admit that, you have no credibility.

Judicial watch is another 'dark money' (501-C3) supported right wing conspiracy wacko site used to keep the snowflakes happy that Hillary Clinton doesn't get away with having email, of all things. The right wing in America grows dumber by the day. Hours and hours of congressional hearing weren't enough? Of course not, for if the snowflakes wake one day they'll realize they are being played for fools.

Who needs Russian interference when America has conspiratorial dummies like judicial watch. Congressional hearing:
"CARTWRIGHT: SO if Secretary Clinton really were an expert about what's classified and what's not classified and we're following the manual, the absence of a header would tell her immediately that those three documents were not classified. Am I correct in that?
COMEY: That would be a reasonable inference.
Comey's admission exonerated Hillary not only from any "carelessness" or "negligence," but also from the charge of lying about "not sending or receiving any classified emails." It would have been entirely "reasonable" for her to conclude that the emails not appropriately marked were not classified exactly as she had been saying for months.
If you were watching the hearing it was a revelatory moment. But how many viewers caught the exchange? Audiences at my talks, when I ran video clips of Cummings's and Cartwright's questioning, were shocked and amazed. ""

"But when we consider the beliefs of other people? It's an epistemic $#@! show out there. Astrology, conspiracies, the healing power of crystals. Aliens who abduct Earthlings and build pyramids. That vaccines cause autism or that Obama is a crypto-Muslim — or that the world was formed some 6,000 years ago, replete with fossils made to look millions of years old. How could anyone believe this stuff?! ... No, seriously: how?" http://www.meltingasphalt.com/crony-beliefs/
This is who snowflakes believe?
A factual search reveals a horrible track record with fact checking. Below is a small sample of their failed fact checks by IFCN fact checkers
- DHS Quietly Moving, Releasing ‘Vanloads’ of ‘Illegal Aliens’ Away from Border – FALSE
- Has Nancy Pelosi spent $100,000 on food, booze and “partying” during her air travel? – FALSE
- Judicial Watch says ISIS operating a camp in Mexico–near El Paso – FALSE
- ‘Islamic Refugee’ with Gas Pipeline Plans Arrested in New Mexico Border County – FALSE
- Did the IRS ‘Fast Track’ Tax-Exempt Status for ‘After School Satan’ Clubs? – FALSE
Overall, we rate Judicial Watch Questionable based on extreme right wing bias, promotion of conspiracy theories and a very poor fact check record. (7/19/2016) Updated (D. Van Zandt 7/23/2018)

Are you unaware that the ACLU has defended the conservatives I listed?
They do do have a left wing slant, but they also have a long history of defending people and groups on the right.

Liberals want things one way. They will not tolerate anything which exposes liberal judicial activism. They seem to believe that liberal policy makers never commit an unconstitutional act.
When they do and are exposed, liberals cry foul. They claim those who exposed them are biased and can’t be trusted.
