Well, that’s fucking pants-on-head stupid. I never said I agreed with everything they do.

I still think the country is better served if the ACLU appeals this ruling.

The Executive Director of the ACLU has a case of Dudebroness in the extreme. I don’t want to tar the organization with that characterization, but he is the executive director.

Edward Snowden is a Patriot
By Anthony D. Romero, Executive Director, ACLU

[…]

Edward Snowden is a great American and a true patriot. My colleagues and I at the ACLU are proud to be his legal advisors. We are committed to assisting him on legal issues he may confront.

Thank goodness for patriots like him, who are willing to endure personal sacrifice to defend truths that we hold self-evident, but which too many Americans take for granted.
