Something fishy in Hollywood Florida?

The Florida Masochist blogged Hat tip to Florida Cracker who links to a very interesting Sun Sentinel column written by Michael Mayo. Last month I blogged about how the Hollywood Florida City Council voted to begin eminent domain proceedings against land owner David Mach. The City Council had the previous year come to an agreement with developer Charles Abele that if Mr. Abele couldn't buy the property from Mr. Mach, that the City Council would then use eminent domain. I thought this was little more than thievery when I read this news. It was just the day before Kelo was handed down by those five knuckleheads on the USSC. Mr. Mayo's column only solidifies my original feelings about this land grab in Hollywood. The She referred to in the column is City Mayor Mara Giulianti

The only good thing about the foolish Kelo decision (also here, here, andhere) is that when the left starts screaming about Bush's nominations changing the balance on the court, Kelo is a very good example to point out to people about why the balance on the court NEEDS TO BE CHANGED.
