I Hate Those Talibs At The National Organization For Women
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Bill O'Reilly is the only thing that stands between us and the totalitarianism of the American Civil Liberties Organization.
Last year, O'Reilly pointed out that the ACLU is a "fascist organization." This was true, but didn't go far enough. So thank goodness that recently, when discussing the ACLU's opposition to teaching evolution in public schools, O'Reilly called them what they really are: THE TALIBAN.
The thing about the Taliban, though, is that they're sneaky. The ACLU is far from their only outpost in the United States. I have therefore compiled a list below of other American parts of THE TALIBAN:
• The National Organization for Women
• Americans United for Separation of Church and State
• The 19th Amendment
• All Stone Buddhas
• Everyone killed on 9/11
• Math
I saw a car at Walgreens the other day with a bumper sticker that said ACLU on it,with a slash across the letters, and another sticker that said "Condi for president 2008". Maybe Condi can keep us safe from the ACLU,like she's kept us safe from, um, whatever she's kept us safe from so far.
