On Fox I was just listening to movie maker that won the 1st amendment case at SCOTUS last week. He said one of the justices asked the Solicitor General that if the movie had been in book form, could the election commission have banned it? The answer from the Solicitor General was YES!!!

That shows me what an important decision this really was. And it shows 4 out of 9 of the justices see no Constitutional problem with government book burning (as long as it's political speech and not pornography).
