I think the bigger point is the "small gov. republicans" asking the federal court to intervene in a state legislation issue. They really do seem insistent on having their cake and eating it too. When it suits them politically they are all for less government interference and regulation, but if an issue arises that they don't agree with it suddenly becomes an important federal issue. They are not called to task enough on this IMHO. If the situation was slightly altered and it was a Democrat admin. asking the judges to intervene in a "conservative" issue" such as concealed weapons or something, in TX, can you imagine the uproar!?
