He is a good writer. I read a lot of his stuff.

Here's one of his articles from February:

Obama, Ginsburg and Guns

In the aftermath of the Heller decision, there will be a handful of major Second Amendment cases over the next few years that will shape gun rights in this country forever. In fact, it was a pro-gun 2004 OLC opinion that laid the foundation for gun-rights advocates to win the Heller case.

Of all these issues, the most significant is whether the Second Amendment only protects gun owners from the federal government, or if it also applies to states and cities. Liberals argue that the amendment only limits the federal government. There are two major lawsuits underway right now, both of which could go to the Supreme Court.


So gun owners had better beware, and should be urging their senators to ask these nominees tough questions on the Second Amendment.
