“This administration is populated by people who’ve spent their careers bashing government. They’re not just small-government conservatives—they’re Grover Norquist, strangle-it-in-the-bathtub conservatives. It’s a cognitive disconnect for them to be able to do something well in an arena that they have so derided and reviled all these years.”

The reason for the season's oddest project

I'm not sure why bombarding the ACLU with Christmas cards is going to do much of anything other than make them feel very loved and think that hundreds of Americans want them to have a Merry Christmas. But if you really want to waste a stamp or two to send warm tidings to a group you really seem to dislike, then go right ahead.

But the ACLU really doesn't care what you say to people this holiday season in your Christmas cards. As the national director of the group's Freedom of Religion and Belief program recently noted:
"People are free to worship in their homes and their houses of worship and if they rent out a hall."

Doesn't sound like they've loaded up the weapons in the so-called "War on Christmas" at all, does it?
