Useful post on Hein vs. FFRF

I knew that the Freedom From Religion Foundation was taking a case to the Supreme Court, but I didn't really know the legal issues involved. Adam Lee has a useful post explaining one key issue: can you sue the government for spending tax dollars to support religion, even if you can't show that it's your dollars, and not your next door neighbor's, that are being spent? Bush administration wants to say no, which would make it impossible to stop missuse of government money. Let's hope the FFRF wins on that issue at the very least.
