Randy, respectfully, I really don’t think it matters what you or anybody else thinks about who she is or what her intentions may be. Just because you don’t like somebody doesn’t mean they aren’t entitled to their day in court.

Also, I really don’t think anybody is holding her up as some amazing person. I could care less about the person. I just think she has a point, and apparently so did the highest court in the land, otherwise they never would have heard her case.

And phil…I laughed out loud when I read that last sentence.

“Bank records show she does not declare the contested property to be her home, rarely stays there and, by draining the city of New LondonÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s budget fighting for a better price for her property, is stealing a decent education from New London school children – the schools are decaying for lack of funds.”

Oh, give me a break, Hogg. You don’t get to use government to steal people’s property because you don’t like them or the way they use it. So I’m supposed to believe that the children of New London are incapable of learning to solve equations, recall when the War of 1812 began, diagram a sentence, and use the scientific method because one person refuses to sell a house to the government for a development project? What is your address Hogg? Maybe we could finance the drama club by developing your property.

I live in New London and have no dog in this fight but I hate to see Kelo held up as some kind of crusader-heroine. I know her as a garden variety real-estate speculator. Bank records show she does not declare the contested property to be her home, rarely stays there and, by draining the city of New London’s budget fighting for a better price for her property, is stealing a decent education from New London school children – the schools are decaying for lack of funds.

That guy is “my” alderman, i.e. I live in the neighborhood he represents. I’m not too surprised with the results; people were *pissed* off at him. Everywhere you go, people have huge signs in their yards that say “RECALL BAUER”. It was getting very annoying; I’m just glad it’s over.

One cool thing about Bauer, BTW, is that he would actually ride around the neighborhood on a Donkey.
