Thanks Rich
Thanks Rich for doing some accurate fact checking - it's something the so-called "reporters" severely lack at Fox "news". Just tonight Keith Olbermann caught Bill O'Reilly in one of his 2,000+ public lies (and counting). O'Reilly LIED that the ACLU did not attempt to protect "Joe the Plumbers" privacy. They most certainly did - the head of the ACLU in Joe's area had a lenghty editorial published in newspapers, explaining why Joe was entitled to his privacy. The ACLU also defended one it's biggest critics and allies to Fox - Rush Limbaugh. So O'Reilly, like too many other "conservatives" is always ready to bash the ACLU and the medai - unless he happens to agree with them.
The ACLU is not about red or blue or black or white - it's number one mandate is to protect the Constitution - always has been.
Some (not all) Republicans just don't get it - this country isn't about red or blue, it's about truth, dignity and honesty. Just as an individual cannot grow without knowing his or hers' faults and failures, neither can a nation nor an organization. I often have challenged the Limbaugh / Fox ditto heads, to name ONE lie from the "liberal media" and for everyone they cite, I can easily cite 5 times more from Limbaugh or any one of the primary Fox "news" moderators IN THEIR OWN WORDS and not out of context. In fact, usually the more context I put in, the more lies from Fox there are. Unfair, imbalanced and unashamed.
