According to her 2003 and 2004 financial disclosure statements, Judge Diggs Taylor served as Secretary and Trustee for the Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan (CFSEM). She was reelected to this position in June 2005. The official CFSEM website states that the foundation made a “recent grant” of $45,000 over two years to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Michigan, a plaintiff in the wiretapping case. Judge Diggs Taylor sided with the ACLU of Michigan in her recent decision. [...] […] Looks like the Carter-appointed judge was just a little too cozy with one of the plaintiffs.

For crying out loud that's significant. They're racketeers.” -Sharon Eubanks, former head of the government's tobacco team If a legitimate business like this could be ruled a racket... We're close to breaking our enemies, men. Based upon recent rulings against big tobacco, I’m confident that the ACLU can be taken apart under RICO statutes and their assets seized.

Bush will be taking it to a higher court, and I pretty much expect it to be fought all the way up the line. What gets me is that some of the political vampires in the senate are still acting like they never heard of the program before it was publicised, even though they were being briefed on it the whole time! [...] […] Well, a judge has ruled against the program, despite some of the obvious precedents and reasons for it.

Israel is our problem... We need to abandon them... And you have to be stupid to believe this program is necessary or proper - to believe the administration needs to keep this secrect from the secret court to carry out necessary activities. You have to be stupider to believe the full scope of the program has been revealed... But you have to be stupider still to believe this won't be abused or expanded in the future... Like when Hillary is President... Do you want Mrs. Co-President FBI files Clinton wielding this? And you have to be ultimately stupid to believe this power will ever be relinquished. This un-war will never end and neither will the expansions of authority it creates. Stupid, and Un-American... A good description of the remains of the neocons... We must return the Congress to the Democrats; impeach and convict Bush. Not because he's Repub or because he's Bush but because of the precident. We stop this now or degenerate into a police state. And if that happens, we should be destroyed. Hamas and Hezhollah are Israel’s problem… Israel is our problem… We need to abandon them…

They were even willing to go to bat for four Arabs who think their ability to do business (with terrorists) might be somewhat hampered by our mean old NSA program. And the stellar judge was even able to find another 'right' within this case - the right to absolute privacy within which our enemies can plot and plan to kill thousands of our people. It just astounds me the compassion these liberals have for the little guys. If these ACLU bastards would commit as much energy to helping secure this country from our declared enemy, perhaps we wouldn't have to worry about the next 9-11 or 8-16. Jason, God bless you for resisting the dark side. Everyone should be sleeping better at night knowing that the ACLU is looking out for our best national interests and security.
