American Center for Law and Justice FTW!

Excerpt:
As this case was filed in federal court, the American Center for Law and Justice represented school officials. I wanted to make sure that the ACLU’s censorship attack would not be successful, and I am happy to report that at the program last week, students sang “Away in a Manger” in the presence of three lawyers and no additional legal action has been taken. But isn’t it ridiculous that three lawyers had to monitor what fifth and sixth graders would be singing at the school’s event? Have we reached a point in our culture where students singing a song that some might disagree with can now become a basis of censorship? For all the ACLU’s talk of championing freedom of speech, they certainly weren’t championing the freedom of speech of these students. The good news is that reason prevailed and the song was sung.
