EDITORIAL: Eminent domain case

Las Vegas Review Journal: An editorial citing and supporting the Wall St. Journal Editorial position (see above) on the Bush administration's betrayal of one of the bedrock principles of conservatism — property rights.

The Journal reports that "Business Roundtable types" are likely pressuring the administration to come down on the side of New London. But if the Bush administration hopes to be remembered as a friend of liberty and property rights — in other words, key ideals on which this nation was founded — it should stay out of Kelo v. New London or, better yet, file a friend of the court brief on behalf of the beleaguered property owners.
