				Those Young Republicans
			 
			
			AUSTIN, TX.   The Young Conservatives of Texas, University of Texas Chapter, announced today that they will be displaying an  "ACLU Nativity Scene" on the West Mall of the University of Texas campus on Monday and Tuesday, December 4th and 5th. The group?s intent is to raise awareness on the extremity of the ACLU, and bring to light its secular-progressive efforts to remove Christmas from the public sphere. The display, the first of its kind in the nation, will feature characters that are quite a bit different than the standard crèche. "We've got Gary and Joseph instead of Mary and Joseph in order to symbolize ACLU support for homosexual marriage, and of course there isn?t a Jesus in the manger," said Chairman Tony McDonald. "The three Wise Men are Lenin, Marx, and Stalin because the founders of the ACLU were strident supporters of Soviet style Communism. The whole scene is a tongue-in-cheek way of showing the many ways that the ACLU and the far left are out of touch with the values of mainstream America."

			This is about as erroneous as can be... and great, because it shows this organizations true colors.  This does nothing but help the ACLU, good for them. |

			You have to keep in mind, the display is on the West Mall, which is essentially the University's "free-speech zone." Every day there is something extreme, humorous, political, etc. out there. Some friends of mine once hosted a mock rally on those steps combining the "Abortion is Murder" and "Meat is Murder" people into the logical conclusion that "Abortion = Meat" and distributed fliers on how to properly cook a fetus. This is a stunt, like everything else out there. |

			Karl Marx is bringing Gary and Joseph child porn as a gift.  Did they simply mis-spell "Tom Cruise Calendar 2007" or is this something in Das Kapital that people try not to mention?
