For Release Monday, June 27 to New Hampshire media For Release Tuesday, June 28 to all other media
Weare, New Hampshire (PRWEB) Could a hotel be built on the land owned by Supreme Court Justice David H. Souter? A new ruling by the Supreme Court which was supported by Justice Souter himself itself might allow it. A private developer is seeking to use this very law to build a hotel on Souter's land.
Justice Souter's vote in the "Kelo vs. City of New London" decision allows city governments to take land from one private owner and give it to another if the government will generate greater tax revenue or other economic benefits when the land is developed by the new owner.
On Monday June 27, Logan Darrow Clements, faxed a request to Chip Meany the code enforcement officer of the Towne of Weare, New Hampshire seeking to start the application process to build a hotel on 34 Cilley Hill Road. This is the present location of Mr. Souter's home.
Clements, CEO of Freestar Media, LLC, points out that the City of Weare will certainly gain greater tax revenue and economic benefits with a hotel on 34 Cilley Hill Road than allowing Mr. Souter to own the land.
The proposed development, called "The Lost Liberty Hotel" will feature the "Just Desserts Café" and include a museum, open to the public, featuring a permanent exhibit on the loss of freedom in America. Instead of a Gideon's Bible each guest will receive a free copy of Ayn Rand's novel "Atlas Shrugged."
Clements indicated that the hotel must be built on this particular piece of land because it is a unique site being the home of someone largely responsible for destroying property rights for all Americans.
"This is not a prank" said Clements, "The Towne of Weare has five people on the Board of Selectmen. If three of them vote to use the power of eminent domain to take this land from Mr. Souter we can begin our hotel development."
Clements' plan is to raise investment capital from wealthy pro-liberty investors and draw up architectural plans. These plans would then be used to raise investment capital for the project. Clements hopes that regular customers of the hotel might include supporters of the Institute For Justice and participants in the Free State Project among others.

Listening to Rush me thinks you are.
Rush just finished doing this on his show, awesome.
Poetic Justice at its best!
Dear AM: Please feel free to correct my typo in heading!
Ironic justice!
Excellent!
Somebody pinch me! This is just too rich!
I just sent them an email and asked them to reserve the presidential suite for the week of August 21st. I figure to sweeten the pot for the Towne of Weare, they should start taking advance bookings for 2006-2007. This will allow the council members to begin projecting the “public benefit”.
Turn abouts, fair play! Go get 'em!!!
Now we just need to get developers in states where the other four live to do the same.....
Sign me up. I will get some accounts up there so I have to go all the time.
I have absolutely no reason to go to NH, but would....just to stay a night at this hotel. Let's see, that's room, dining out, heck...I'll even buy gas before leaving town.
Oh THAT would be GREAT.
You go Logan!! How can I invest :)
Where do I call to make a reservation???
And he needs to buy it for about 10 cents on the dollar.
While we are at it, let's go ahead and get Boxer's and Feinstein's and Pelosi's and Kennecy's and all the other liberals who hate the idea of private property. Hell, a whole chain of "Lost Liberty Hotels" to be built on the property of those most responsible for destroying it. Just for good measure, each hotel ought to come with an indoor gun range.
I would be more than happy to donate to a fund to pay the city for this property. If we were to offer say 5x what the fair market price that the city would have to pay Souter, it would become an instant 'public benefit.'
