seems like this helps get more conservatives on the supreme court.

O"connor was joined in her opinion by Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, as well as Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas.

From film clips i saw of the house locations it would appear the project could have been built around them.

Taking private property for private developments -- now there's a subject fit for a Constitutional amendment. Of course, we already have two on the subject (5th and 14th) but they appear not to be clear enough for Kennedy.

Oh Boy, that has got to be one of the lousiest Supreme Court rulings in history. I find it INCOMPREHENSIBLE that a DEVELOPER can get a CITY to exercise eminent domain to grab property, likely FAR BELOW its true value. I cant IMAGIN the Citizenry not opposing this in the strongest manner. If THIS isnt grounds to increase the CONSERVATIVES on the court I dont know what is. jdn

And that's ONE GIANT STEP toward Communism/Socialism/Marxism.
