Remember that enormously successful New England Celebrates Israel event at Gillette Stadium last week? Remember the group of numb-nuts who plotted literally for months for about a minute of standing around with banners they smuggled in under their skirts? (I kid you not -- see that second post for links.) Well an emailer points out that the YouTube video shows that the ACLU's Nancy Murray, of the Massachusetts chapter's "Bill of Rights Education Project," was there, and it appears quite clear that she operated not just as an observer, but as one of the organizers and coaches as well:

It's either Murray or her also-evil twin.

It should be noted that this was not a case of people wanting their free-speech on public land, a la Nazis at Skokie, this was an event on private property they knew they had to plot to get into, where they knew they had no legal "right" to demand to be, where they could be kept out and removed instantly...this was NOT a Civil Liberties issue, and the ACLU was helping to run the show, not just standing by as dispassionate upholders of the Constitution.
