was killed on a mostly 22-11 party-line vote in the Democratic-controlled Senate. Excellent. A stick to beat them with in 2006 elections....

Every State needs to make them get on record whether they are for or against this.

The sad thing is that most people probably agree with the Democrats on this issue. They are all for confiscating other people's property as long as it isn't theirs.

exactly what I was thinking. This "emminent domain" issue could be the best thing for our party right now.
We'll gain big in 2006, the true conservatives will be the loudest voices against it, any American with property and a brain will hear us, and the RINOs will (hopefully!) fade into the background (or be pushed more conservative).
Probably alot of that is wishful thinking, but then again, we're the party of hope, not doom and gloom! =P

Socialism is a great evil, and Jesus is Lord.
We both know who will win.

No surprise here I suppose. Some morons in the local paper's comment section the other day of course blamed Bush and the far right for this issue. What a laugh.
I did not know the mayor of New London was black until I saw her on TV last night. One state rep. from NL, also black and a Demo of course, was all in favor of eminent domain. I have to wonder why these folks are so opposed to individual rights when it comes to property.

So the Democrats are on board with towns just taking people's homes. Make sure this article gets e-mailed to everyone you know.

The Democratic Party -- the domain of big corporations, fat cats, bribes, back-room deals, big lawyers, palm-greasing, special interests to the detriment of the common person -- we know the score now.

This is clear evidence of who the Democrats really are. But will the people of Connecticut wake up and smell the coffee? I doubt it. Old habits, even when they go against your best interests, die hard.
