| Re: See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil? I'd point out that certain civil rights groups carry an enormous amount of influence with some legislators, and can be pretty much guaranteed a hearing.
That being said, I didn't recognize any of the groups listed in the article. That doesn't mean they aren't legit, but if I were a particularly devious PR flak, I might consider astroturfing "civil rights" groups in much the same way I astroturf more obvious interest groups.
Here's the list from the article, if anyone knows anything about any of them:
