Are you fucking nuts? They have defended some of the vilest of the vile - including the KKK. Here is a great essay from the ACLU's site about why we need to protect even the vilest of speech (using the Westboro Baptist Church as an example).

Of course the ACLU abhors the speech that the KKK makes, they defend their right to say it. Of course, if you're a liberal organization representing a repugnant person like a KKK grand wizard, of course you get your digs in by assigning it to a black attorney.
