Liberals Take Liberties

VDH on liberals abridging civil liberties, of which this is one example. Remember Kelo:

In the Susette Kelo case, the court gave state and local officials unchecked rights of eminent domain to expropriate her house. The property was not condemned for a necessary bridge or public highway. Instead it was seized for "urban redevelopment"--even when the property in question was not blighted, and the urban renewal project was of questionable viability.

City officials were delighted. Their stock and trade have been to confiscate properties, sell them in sweet heart deals to wealthy insider developers--and paper over the entire shanigan with utopian rhetoric about helping the underclass.

The tyranny of the nanny state---much more likely than the supposed threat of a police state from the right--it's here, it's now. Liberals--breaking the law every day.
