Even if a Republican Appointed a Supreme Court Justice, the Democrats Are to Blame

RECEIVED Wed., July 6, 2005

Dear Editor,
    Poor Thomas Speer, so angry [“Postmarks Online,” July 5]. Sorry sir, you can get your own head out of wherever you have it, but the facts of the eminent domain ruling by the USSC are that all the liberals on the court and Justice David Souter ruled for it. That's the fact, Jack, and please, if you don't like the facts, go off on another idiotic rant about “evil big corporations.” And if you're not intelligent enough to understand there is a fundamental difference between liberals and conservatives, please stay out of politics. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Carl Swanson
