It is the Supreme Court that decides what is unconstitutional. By protecting the courts you are protecting the Constitution.

Haven't read all the way down this thread, but I think it is wrong for President Bush to sign this, thinking the SC will overturn it. If in fact he is doing so to take the issue away from the demos, this path actually hands it back to them. If the court does over turn CFR, then the demos have ammo to use against the "bias, conservative" court and will block any conservative nominee President Bush brings forward. He is between a rock and a hard spot, and the single best thing he can to is pick the bill up and tear it in two.

That is a good point and one I haven't really thought about however I have, as the best I can on the web researched this court's record on the 1st amendment and what I have been able to find this particular court even the liberals take a very hard stance on 1st amendment violations. This is a different scenario than 2nd amendment challenges that almost always split conservative/liberal
