To: America's Resolve

There is broad and deep bipartisan opposition to Kelo.

This could affect the appointment of a new member of the Supreme Court.

But Congress is withholding cash from those municipalities who violate the Fifth Amendment's public use clause.

Suddenly, everyone understands now that money is involved.

Well, this is being PROPOSED. But frankly I'm skeptical.

If a community gets 5-10 million from the feds, but can get 20-25 mil from a new hotel/condo who cares what the feds think.

yeah, unlike a lot on this thread, I think the left is just as much up in arms abuot this as we are, but for entirely different reasons.

For them it's about the evil corporations stealing poor peoples land. And I never thought I'd say it, but I gotta agree with them.

Govt is a mere go-between.
