Status of the "Hotel Lost Liberty" project
Freestar Media LLC ^

Posted on 07/02/2005 4:59:20 PM PDT by Man50D

Status of the "Hotel Lost Liberty" project This is a real project. To help the potential financial supporters understand where we our in the process a rough outline appears below. This will be revised as needed. Our ability to proceed can be improved with your financial support.

1. Ask the Town of Weare, N.H. what process must be followed to gain approvals to build a hotel.

2. Obtain plot maps and descriptions of the subject property.

3. Establish an escrow account to receive funds to support pre-approval work and funds to support post approval needs (construction and operating capital).

4. Establish a seperate legal entity to carry the project forward and receive the escrow funds.

5. Raise enough financing to support pre-approval work.

6. Create preliminary designs, gather information to support the economic viability of the project and find a company that built several successful hotels to oversee the project.

7. Make a formal presentation of our proposal to the Town of Weare.

8. If property is approved for seizure, and hotel is approved for construction, raise enough funding to build and operate the hotel.

9. Auction off the chance to drive the bulldozer.

10. Build it.

How you can participate (more fun, for real!): 1. Are you a powerful and famous radio talk show host?

The "Room-Fit-For-A-Host Prize" will go to that radio talk show host that causes his or her listeners to pony up the largest sum toward the hotel's construction cost. This will be accomplished by asking each investor which radio talk show host motivated him or her to invest. The honeymoon suite will be named after the winning radio talk show host and that host will be allowed to choose the books and decorations in the room (within our budget). Four runners-up will have regular hotel rooms named after them and also be allowed to choose the books, decorations and furniture in these rooms (within our budget). The radio talk show host that finishes last will have the bathroom adjoining the restaurant named after him or her.

Imagine if your favorite host wins! What decorations might be found in the "Rush Room"? Which books might appear in the "Larry Elder Room"? What creature comforts might be enjoyed in the Bill O'Reilly Room? Do we dare to think what the "Howard Stern Room" might look like? Who will win? How will they decorate? The world awaits with baited breath...and a new reality show is born!

This contest is open to all radio talk show hosts. We will announce which radio talk show hosts step into the ring as it happens...

2. What should we serve in the Just Deserts Cafe* (the hotel restaurant)?

We have received some creative suggestions: Chicken Seizure Salad, Souter Soup, Goose and Gander Sautee. And for dessert Logan's original item...Crow Pie. But we need more to complete our menu. Send your ideas to "menu@freestarmedia.com". Include the name of your menu suggestion in the subject line.

*Name changed to clarify what we are really serving.

Let me know when you're up and running. It's not too far from Londonderry to Weare.... I'll bet you could have a raffle for first night boarders.

Put me down for a couple of tickets.

There's no way in hell the Selectmen would approve building a hotel in an area zone residential. The idiot that's spearheading this "idea" should take a trip to New Hampshire to assess other posibilities such as a B & B. The dude all show.

Relax a bit, it's certainly worth the effort to try and in the meantime this 'project' is pushing public awareness to new highs on the issue of eminent domain and the erosion of our "property rights".

Chill out and let Logan run... it will be fun to see how far this goes..

Cheers,
Lloyd

Why not do things in a manner that achieves the goal of removing Souter from his homestead. Apparently his (Logan) goal is only to promote himself and get that television show he wants.

Then "redevelop" the rest of the neighborhood as well. Wasting all that land on single family residences is a travesty, when there is money to be made, and taxes collected.

Economic Redevelopment uber alles!

Maybe we could help out Africa at the same time, by hiring Robert Mugabe as a consultant.

Zoning can be changed, however it would probably be difficult. A B&B is a good idea, but it would be hard to argue that it would bring significantly more tax revenue to the town. Unless of course the Selectmen are already motivated to go along with the project. Unlikely since local governments are the biggest beneficiaries, at least for now, of this unconstitutional "taking".

My only suggestion is to name the hotel "Lost Liberty Lodge". It rolls off the tongue better.

I also like the idea of the guest bulldozer. I could see putting up some things on e-Bay to get some real bidding going. Maybe like when the president signs a bill with 50 different pens, you could sell 50 different swipes at the Judge's house.

What is your major malfunction? Television show?

Please source your claims. If you have any sources.

I agree. Not only is the public aware - but city officials are commiting political suicide if they approve such stuff .. at least I would hope people would be outraged and vote such people out of office.

And .. I hope the House continues on it's path to DEFUND such actions. Pelosi says we can't do that .. but WE NOT ONLY CAN - WE SHOULD.

There is nothing to stop someone else from filing another plan on for Mr. Souter's property. That's the beautiful thing about this plan. Mr. Souter can now spend the rest of his days (or until Kelo vs New Longon is overturned) defending every piece of property he owns. If this plan of Mr. Logan's doesn't pass muster, the next plan might, or the one after that. And if Mr. Souter decides to move to the family property in Massachusetts, someone in our midst can simply file the appropriate plans to claim that land and build something more suitable to the economic development of that community as well.

So, if this plan of Logan's is not as well thought out as it should be, then please feel free to file another plan of your own.

The more the merrier until these elite bastards learn that they live under the same laws we do.

Cheers
Lloyd

I emailed my suggeston to Mr. Clements. He should allow small investors and give a free nights stay with each share purchased in the hotel. He could raise millions by doing this.

Think about it another way. When the project gets disapproved by the local government, the developer can potentially sue claiming he was denied his rights under the recent Kelo decision. Let that one get to the USSC and we will see some fast revision of justice.

And I liked Steyn's column on the subject using the idea that Federal lands are underutilizing their potential tax revenue and should thus be taken. It could get really interesting.

" Federal lands are underutilizing their potential tax revenue and should thus be taken."

That was my thinking...nothing like taking the Supreme Court building to build a strip mall to generate some tax revenue. Afterall, the Supremes aren't generating any tax revenue and it has that "Godly" message called the 10 Commandants (illegal I might add) craved in it.

The Ten Commandments must be posted in a prominent place at the hotel...perhaps also in every room?

Well, they need a professional present to supervise. I nominate the guy who squashed Rachel Corrie. (He could come in handy in the event, however unlikely, that Souter tries to defend "his" property.)

"There is nothing to stop someone else from filing another plan on for Mr. Souter's property."

You are sooo right! ! In fact, there should be competition for that land, because every project will require a response as long as the filing fee is paid. Bed and Breakfast, Gas Station, 7-11 - They'd all make more tax revenue. How about a topless joint? That would be a pip. This could become the most expensive little piece of land around!

Can I ask the moderator why my comment #45 was pulled? Was it because I offended politicalwit by namecalling? If so, I apologize, it was in response to his calling freestar an idiot.

If it was because I inappropriately addressed the bribery issue regarding the Souter property, can you give me some guidelines?

Well, I do have to say that Logan has done far more for "consciousness raising" on property rights and the Foul Five's most recent treason than I noticed in your posts.

Might I ask why the ad hominum attack on him?

New Hampshire could pass a constitutional amendment forbidding such takings. Hopefully, they will pass it shortly after Souter's house is bulldozed.

Sorry if you see this as an attack on him. After listening to him on Fox it just appears his motives are more self-serving than for the good of the nation. I see him in the same vain as John Walsh on "America's Most Wanted."

You're obviously entitled to your opinion and I know this is tangental to the original post but I can't help wonder how many criminals would still be at large if it wasn't for John Walsh? If not John Walsh then who?
