:::To respond (1) since when is activism confined to liberals? Many in the Tea Party are activists, but hardly liberal. (2) His associations with the Democrats seem tied to mostly the substantially less liberal South, and have long since passed. Does Strom Thurmond get a liberal template as well? (3) his criticisms of liberals are as strong, or more so, than his criticism of conservatives. (4) The ACLU is more libertarian than liberal, and are merely defending his constitutional rights anyway (as they have done for guys like Limbaugh and Ollie North) and have made no statements defending what he says, only his right to say it.
