Eminent Domain Becomes Headache for Controversial Judge
Logan Darrow Clements seems like my kind of guy. He is taking the Supreme Court’s decision in “Kelo vs. City of New London” (which allowed city governments to take land from one private owner and give it to another if the government will generate greater tax revenue or […]
I’ve been spending less time on the internet. I still think, always. I remain a constant flood of opinion. Yet, despite this, I suffer now from block, from a limited ability to write. Even at work, emails take unusual effort to craft.

Beginning Monday, I will be out of town. I travel to Washington, D.C. to work as a consultant for season 7 of West Wing. That last part is not true. I am in DC on non-TV related matters until Wednesday night, then Thursday I am off to Kinistino, Sk, Canada with my […]
Judge Roberts is . . . uncontroversial. While I don’t want a Bork-style fight in the Senate, wait, just wait, what’s wrong with a fight? Roberts will hide behind his clients on most issues, including Roe. Is that who we want interpreting the Constitution?

Mobile phone sales reach 800 million, 2.6 billion by 2009.
Mine takes pictues (still and motion with sound), plays movies and mp3s, full internet, video games, portable documents, global navigation, and phone calls.
What will yours do in 2009?
Madness!
