Another missive from Reid Cox:

I cannot keep myself from cynically commenting that the Democrats push — like Senator Kohl’s now —to politicize the judiciary is not preventing them from opposing the egregious anti-property rights decision that was issued this past term in Kelo v. City of New London. But that’s not because the Democrats believe in protecting property rights, it’s because they see political points to score. To understand this, ask yourself the following question: Would the Democrats be opposed to the outcome in the Kelo decision — namely, that the government can take private property for development —- if the land in question was owned by a multinational corporation rather than families?
