I love the ACLU, but this article reads like it was taken from a brochure. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Spartacus007 (talk • contribs).
[edit] Plagarism
The entire article had been plagarized from the ACLU's web site. [1] I removed the offending contents and made the article a stub again. --Rookkey 19:45, 24 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] no mention of controversy?
Was it last year or the year before that there was an internal document with several controversial provisions endorsed by romero, including "A director may publicly disagree with an ACLU policy position, but may not criticize the ACLU board and staff." and "[board members] should refrain from publicly highlighting" any disagreement with the organization's policies, in part because public dissent could hurt the ACLU's "public support and fund-raising."
There doesn't seem to be mention of this on either this page or the ACLU page?
-dialectric Ditto that. A confusing omission; the (also rather stubby) article on Wendy Kaminer mentions her opposition to Romero - but nothing about these issues here.
"In his capacity as ACLU head, he opposes the Bush administration's execution of the campaign against international terrorism." -- that's badly worded, and seems a tad tendentious. (implying that the ACLU is against combatting terrorism) Better might be "under his leadership, the ACLU has opposed what it sees as the Bush administration's drastic curtailment of civil liberties in its campaign against terrorism."
