Alito on the First Amendment
Julie Hilden has an excellent analysis of Judge Alito's decision in a 3rd Circuit free speech case. As Hilden points out, Alito comes off as quite pro-First Amendment, which is a good thing for those of us who believe in an originalist perspective of constitutional interpretation.
Of course, the Left will probably state that this is not evidence of Alito's pro-First Amendment views, but instead is his bias towards Christians. After all, the Christians won. Of course, as Hilden writes in the article, the Christians won, but it wasn't because they are Christians. It was because they were right.
