Arch conservative Grover Norquist sides with the ACLU! How will the right wing smear machine handle this one? Self inflicted wounds? Illegitimate bi-racial child?
“For 40 years we always assumed the left would take care of our civil liberties,” he said. “If there were problems, the Democrats were the ones who would push back. But now with a Republican Congress and a Republican in the White House, the ACLU can’t get their calls returned.”
Referring to what some see as a conflict between fighting vicious terrorists and upholding all civil liberties, Norquist said: “It’s not either/or. If the president thinks he needs different tools, pass a law to get them. Don’t break the existing laws.”"

Grover Norquist is a Bob Barr conservative when it comes to civil liberties. His ideas on taxes and the economy are scary. I think what Grover really wants his no taxes. That would be nice, but not realistic.
