" This "emminent domain" issue could be the best thing for our party right now. "

If you follow the lead of the top dog of the republican party don't expect too much. It was GWB that lobbied the Texas legislators to have eminent domain laws changed in Texas, allowing private individuals and companies to essentially take private property. This move made it possible for the "Texas Rangers" to steal property in Arlington Texas for a new stadium and stick the bill to taxpayers. GWB made about $15mm on the deal.

So that's why we haven't heard ONE WORD about this from our president. I'm sick of hearing the same speech about "Iraqi freedom" over and over again.

That's typical liberal hogwash.

The Texas Rangers have never owned the stadium in Arlington. It is owned by the city of Arlington and was approved by the voters.

The Texas Rangers rent the stadium from the city.
