Lets ban still more books

Political books, this time.

I suppose this is for the children, too.

Here is the NY Times take, winding up with:
“If we accept your constitutional argument,” Chief Justice Roberts told Mr. Stewart, “we’re establishing a precedent that you yourself say would extend to banning the book.”

Justice Antonin Scalia said he was “a little disoriented.”

“We are dealing with a constitutional provision, are we not, the one that I remember which said Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of the press?” Justice Scalia asked.
In Sandra Day O'Connor's much heralded absence, there is at least a chance of wiping McCain-Feingold off the books.

George Bush signed it into "law". So much for respecting his oath of office to uphold the Constitution.
