Brownwood & Eminent Domain: Follow the Money, It's Bi-partisan !
Heard the conversation on Brownwood Talk Radio this morning regarding the recent Supreme Court Ruling on Eminent Domain. Not surprised that the majority of the callers and hosts would frame the issue as a "blame it on the Liberals and Democrats". Was it a "Liberal" issue when George Bush utilized (for huge profits!) eminet domain to push people off their property in Arlington Texas to build their new baseball stadium ? Mr Gomez called in and asked about the local implications to the recent ruling since he owns land that could be taken away by "developers" using the same tactics that Bush used in Arlington. Mr Gomez should talk to the folks in Arlington who were forced to sell their land. Anyone who tries to frame this as a liberal or Democratic issue is beyond reason. This issue is a Greed issue which is found in both political parties and usually found to be abused more by those in the majority party ! Does it matter what political party the greed driven developer is a member of when he forces you off your property ? Why does the KXYL owner, Phil Watts, Kloak for the Republicans ?
