Default Re: President Bush Blocks Federal Eminent Domain Abuses

I hear ya, ms. For me it's just fun to point out the principle in a LionsDen thread, that principle being that the Bill of Rights, in the context of federalism, is a floor, not a ceiling.

I think it's hilarious that on the one hand LionsDen applauds the California Supreme Court for extending freedom of speech for teen preachers into privately-owned shopping malls but condemns the Connecticut Supreme Court for operating according to precisely the same principle: local, as opposed to federal, control.

Either condemn both state supreme courts for "judicial activism" or applaud them both for enforcing "states' rights."
