Wow. What a name! It sounds like "The Democrats' Litigation Reform Project." Or "The United Nations' Spending Control Project." Or "The Cuban Freedom and Democracy Project." Or "The Robert Mugabe Better Government Project."
Can somebody please remind me what we might find on the short list of the ACLU's contribution(s) to "National Security"? Quite seriously, one might be able to argue that the ACLU tries to protect civil liberty principles in the face of increased national security measures. In that respect, whether you agree with the ACLU or not, they would be best regarded as "The National Security Counter-weight."
But a "National Security Project"? Yeah, right.
