Sweet, sweet revenge on eminent domain ruling?
This one is too good to be true: some libertarian-leaning folks are attempting to seize and destroy Justice David Souter’s home to make way for a hotel/museum as an eminent domain ‘economic development’ project. It couldn’t happen to a better target and one hopes the other 4 justices who voted for this enormity will be similarly afflicted. Perhaps once judges fear the real-life consequences of their decisions they will think a little more about how those decisions affect regular people of humble means.

Yay!!!
I got into an argument with a friend because I’m such a fatalist about the state of this country. Being from Seattle, she has hope. Being from Tucson, I do not.
Is there hope after all?

Oddly enough a lot of the hope seems to lie with, as I’ve said, honest conservatives with a sense of decency. Progressive America would do well to make common cause with them when possible when attacked by the two corporate parties.
