Ironical: Taking Souter's House for Hotel

I'm thinking we could use Ginsburg's place for a new multiplex, Souter's pad for a new Bed Bath and Beyond, Kennedy's house might be converted into a Starbucks, and maybe Breyer won't fight the eminent domain eviction order that will soon turn his loft-space into a Barnes & Noble. Check out this press release that Drudge is linking to and which Leopold Stotch e-mailed me about:

On Monday June 27, Logan Darrow Clements, faxed a request to Chip Meany the code enforcement officer of the Towne of Weare, New Hampshire seeking to start the application process to build a hotel on 34 Cilley Hill Road. This is the present location of Mr. Souter's home.

Clements, CEO of Freestar Media, LLC, points out that the City of Weare will certainly gain greater tax revenue and economic benefits with a hotel on 34 Cilley Hill Road than allowing Mr. Souter to own the land.

The proposed development, called "The Lost Liberty Hotel" will feature the "Just Desserts Café" and include a museum, open to the public, featuring a permanent exhibit on the loss of freedom in America. Instead of a Gideon's Bible each guest will receive a free copy of Ayn Rand's novel "Atlas Shrugged."

Clements indicated that the hotel must be built on this particular piece of land because it is a unique site being the home of someone largely responsible for destroying property rights for all Americans.

"This is not a prank" said Clements, "The Towne of Weare has five people on the Board of Selectmen. If three of them vote to use the power of eminent domain to take this land from Mr. Souter we can begin our hotel development."

3 I cannot wait to propose the seizure of a fancy Foxhill mansion in DC to build a Denny’s. I don’t know who said this ruling was bad for the common man, but whoever it was didn’t know how to have fun!

4 Liberal elites never foresee having to abide by their own policies. That's why they can preach about my SUV while they fly around in their learjets and heat their mansions. Souter's property is 100% safe.

5 It's just so beautiful, I'm literally on the verge of tears with joy. The chickens are coming home to roost, and they're driving CAT D9 earthmovers.

9 Echo of Freedom being lost? Or a rallying cry to resist tyranny? Will it reverberate briefely and then dissapear? Or will it wake us up before it's too late?

Ole G.W. had better put his all into getting solid conservative Supreme Court appointees. Compromise now is NOT an option, komrad.
