Kelo v. City of New London RALLY! February 20, 2005

[Russell Kanning]

Wow that city official in MN should be tarred and feathered

I heard this when it broadcast.  It was especially gratifying to hear the reporter call IJ, "the libertarian Institute for Justice".  This is the first time I can remember that adjective being stuck in front of a name on a news program, when it did not sound like it was an attempt to marginalize the thing being named.

Oh yeah, the NPR report said they expected a decision from the Supreme Court by summer.  I guess these things take a while

Even computer magazine writer Dvorak has this issue on his blog dvorak.org and specifically here

There should be a ruling on this real soon.

Supposedly they're be issuing their ruling on medical marijuana today too.

[Kat Kanning]

Cool on the training.  Are you starting a NH chapter?
