ACLU fulfilling communist agenda

Every day, the headlines scream with some new threat from the American Civil Liberties Union.
I believe it's important to look behind the curtain and discover the origins of groups and
organizations to better understand their activities.

The ACLU was founded in the 1920s by Roger Baldwin and Crystal Eastman, described as a
"progressive" and "the perfect feminist."

Earl Browder was general secretary of the Communist Party of the United States from 1930
through its dissolution in 1944. When the party was reconstituted as the Communist Political
Association later that year, Browder was chosen as its president. Browder proudly proclaimed
that the ACLU functioned as "a transmission belt" for the party. To deny the ACLU's founding
was attached at the hip to communist organizations is to deny what can easily be proven as truth.

For the past few decades, the ACLU has been on a major crusade to destroy Christianity in
America, promote filth under "freedom of speech and expression," and of course, vigorously
defend the homosexual culture of death. On Jan. 10, 1963, Congressman Albert S. Herlong Jr.,
D-Fla., read a list of 45 communist goals into the Congressional Record. Below are the
communist goals being implemented by the ACLU in their quest to destroy America's culture
and traditions:

• Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming
their activities violate civil rights.
• Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current
communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers associations. Put
the party line in textbooks.
• Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all form of artistic expression. An
American communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and
buildings," substituting shapeless, awkward and meaningless forms.
 • Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness,
repulsive, meaningless art."
• Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of
free speech and free press.
• Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in
books, magazines, motion pictures, radio and television.
• Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural and healthy."
• Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the
Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious
crutch."
• Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the grounds that it
violates the principle of "separation of church and state."
• Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history
on the ground that it was only a minor part of "the big picture." Give more emphasis to
Russian history since the communists took over. Obliterating the American past, with its
antecedents in principles of freedom, liberty and private ownership is a major goal of the
communists then and now.
• Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture –
education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.
• Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

Anyone who has been following the destructive path of the ACLU can easily see how effective
these communist goals have been implemented to "promote democracy" and protect your "civil
rights." Lenin stated: "Communism alone is capable of providing really complete democracy."
(See Tucker, "The Lenin Anthology"). James Madison, known as the "Father of the
Constitution" had something different to say about a democracy:

Democracy is the most vile form of government ... democracies have ever been spectacles of
turbulence and contention, have ever been found incompatible with personal security or the
rights of property, and have in general been as short in their lives as they have been violent in
their deaths.

Perhaps it's time to recognize the ACLU as the American Communist Lawyers Union instead of
their disingenuous "civil rights" stage name.

No organization can exist without memberships and funding. It is inconceivable to me how

anyone who claims to be a Christian, lawyer or layman, could belong to such an anti-American
organization as the ACLU. Burn your card and get out. Organizations like Working Assets,
tobacco companies and big corporations all donate to the ACLU, which in turn uses that money
to buy the favors of those who serve in Congress – who vote to unconstitutionally fund the
activities of the ACLU under the Civil Rights Attorney's Fees Awards Act of 1976.

If Americans really want to put the ACLU out of business, remove yourself as a member of their
organization, boycott companies that donate to them and demand these public servants in
Congress repeal the unconstitutional funding of this subversive organization.
There is no justification under Art. 1, Sec. 8, to steal from the people's treasury to give money to
the ACLU or any other organization for "civil rights" lawsuits. Your Congress critter will be in
your district during the month of December – make the most of it.
