Not sure I agree with this:
I agree that Webb should get on the repeal DC gun ban issue pronto.
I think congressional intervention would completely ruin any chance that Parker v. DC has of making it to the supreme court. For good or bad.

I don’t really want them derailing Parker either, so much as I’d like to see the Democrats start saying the right things about the issue, and suggesting the courts should get rid of the ban would be one of them, and would help. I don’t think there’s any chance a Pelosi run house is going to repeal that ban no matter what Jim Webb says, but it makes for good political hay in the mean time. If the Supreme Court does go our way, it might open the door to legislation in our favor thereafter in regards to DC.
I do want to see Parker go forward, but Webb mentioning something about the injustice of the DC gun ban would be welcome. I knew what I meant to say, it just didn’t quite come out right. 10,000 things going on today at work.

I was thinking the same thing, no law = no case.
