These people are remarkable

My pals over at Donordigital have partnered with Fenton Communications to produce a cool new organization devoted to fighting the religious right — it’s called Campaign to Defend the Constitution, or DEFCON for short.

What is remarkable about Defcon is that they get stuff done and they are fun!

There is nothing inherently amusing about the religious right’s efforts to turn our country into a neanderthal theocracy.  But Defcon has tapped the considerable irony in the ravings of America’s Taliban to excellent effect.  So while on one day Defcon is defeating state laws mandating “intelligent deisgn” in science classes, the next day they are encouraging their active and energized constituency to invite a right-wing zealot to see Brokeback Mountain.

And they have one of the most active non-profit blogs i have seen.
