JC Christian, Jesus' General, has pulled the mask off one of the most evil stories coming out of the religious right this week. JC is a parodist who enjoys sending scathingly sarcastic emails to right-wing nutjobs in the hopes of eliciting a response. This time, boy, did he get the goods.

In Delaware, a story has been brewing about a Jewish family that fled the town in which they lived after they called the ACLU to file a lawsuit alleging that the schoolboard was engaged in a deliberate and malicious campaign to make their children feel unwelcome in the local public schools. Several of the allegations are damning, such as since one child was the only one who didn't want to attend a Bible Club, she had to attend the club anyway.

An organization called Stop the ACLU posted the family's full name and address on its website. JC sent STACLU an email saying, in part, "Please allow me to be the first to thank you and the staff of Stop The ACLU for all you did to make the Indian River Pogrom such a resounding success. It isn't easy to run a Jewish family out of town in these politically correct times."

The response is, um, chilling:
Pogrom? I'm not sure I want to call it that. That is not an appropriate term, however, I am pleased that we had an effect in this case. We have others we want to put up on the site to shame them but have not gotten around to it. And I'm not so sure I can take credit for it.
Aren't they charming when they're so evil?

Actually, if you go read the letter, the specific item for which STACLU wants to shame the family is for daring to call the ACLU and asking that their rights be upheld.
