Stop Stop the ACLU

I just stopped by "Stop the ACLU" on a link from Digby. These people are really out there. Here's the quote from Digby:

But let’s tell the truth as we know it – the ACLU despises the fact that this nation is one that operates under Judeo-Christian principles. This is not a Muslim nation or a Hindu or Buddhist nation. This is a Christian nation, even if our morality is going down the sewer. This nation was founded by men who believed in the Christian God. There is no problem for Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists or others who want to practice their own “faith” here in America. We afford them that privilege under the 1st Amendment. But our foundation is that of the Judeo-Christian faith. If the ACLU doesn’t like it, I suggest they go to Communist Cuba or China where they can practice their godlessness. I’m getting sick of being told that all religions are equal. They are not!

I'm not going to link to these nutjobs. They're just another cog in the Christianist machine, with the required historical filter that ignores anything that undermines their fantasies.
