The decision today by Justice Scalia striking down the gun laws in the District of Colombia (District of Colombia v. Heller) should not be taken too sourly by Democrats. Even though the Scalia argument is somewhat shallow and specious, the overall Scalia result prevents the right from being able to claim that a liberal Supreme Court is the issue. Let Wayne La Pierre and the other gun nuts salivate over this "victory." Their argument about being persecuted for their constitutional "rights" has just be neutralized for the 2008 elections.
