Today's Fortune Cookie

The ACLU has stood foursquare against the recurring tides of hysteria that from time to time threaten freedoms everyhere... Indeed, it is difficult to appreciate how far ourfreedoms might have eroded had it not been for the Union's valiant representation in the courts of the constitutional rights of people of all persuasions, no matter how unpopular or even despised by the majority they were at the time.
-- former Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren

Today is a good day to join the ACLU. The Constitution is worth defending. Lovely ship, too.
