More summary of the Summum case

From NPR:

Court Weighs Religious Monuments, Public Parks

The money quote, from Chief Justice Roberts:

You're just picking your poison, aren't you? The more you say it's government speech, the more it seems to me you're just walking into the religion trap. What is the government doing ... supporting the Ten Commandments?
I'm really pulling for the Summum group to win this. But, I'm kind of afraid that they'll never actually "win", as the town seems like it would be more inclined to destroy all the monuments in the park, rather than allow the "Seven Aphorisms" in.
