Yesterday I linked to a commentary by Tad DeHaven on the ideological slant of “informative” U.S. government sites directed at kids. Tad now tells me that one of the sites he mentioned actually changed its wording shortly after his commentary appeared. Tad writes:

In a section on the Bill of Rights, a children’s Web site produced by the Government Printing Office mentions the right “to Keep and Bear Arms in Common Defense.” A quick look at the 2nd Amendment makes no mention of the common defense, but does mention the right of the people to keep and bear arms. Could the intentions of the author be more obvious?

That was then. Now take a look at the same page. Nicely done, Tad.
