A very Kelo Christmas

Reason's Jacob Sullum brings us the latest from the nice folks at the New London Development Corporation — the ones who used Eminent Domain provisions to take away the homes of many folks in New London, including Susette Kelo:

Has Susette Kelo "gone around the bend"? That's the diagnosis of New London Development Corporation (NLDC) board member Reid Burdick, one recipient of a very special greeting card that Kelo sent to the officials she blames for using eminent domain to drive her from her home in the name of progress. On the front of the card is a picture of the house she struggled for years to save from the economic development bulldozers, culminating in the U.S. Supreme Court's 2005 decision siding with the city — and with central planners throughout the country who are busy thinking of better uses for other people's property. Inside the card are these verses:

Here is my house that you did take
From me to you, this spell I make
Your houses, your homes
Your family, your friends
May they live in misery
That never ends.
I curse you all
May you rot in hell
To each of you
I send this spell
For the rest of your lives
I wish you ill
I send this now
By the power of will
