George Will on the Parker case

Posted by David Hardy · 18 March 2007 12:00 PM

Here's his Townhall article.

Oh, and here's a WaPo article on the Parker attorneys. It's a bit of a hit piece (keeps on returning to his home, assets, etc., as if that had any relevance to his case), but actually for the Post is quite favorable.

Comments

I like the George Will article generally, but he does fall into the trap that I often see of arguing that the First Amendment has primacy because it is First. I think this is fallacious as it wasn't originally the first. The first two amendments in the Bill of Rights were not ratified, leaving the Third Amendment as the First and the Fourth as the Second.

The original First and Second had to do with expanding the House and pay increases. Not exactly inspiring amendments.
