SPECIAL REPORT

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Peeved by the Supreme Court's decision to support the government seizure of private land for development, a group of activists is trying to get Justice David Souter evicted from his New Hampshire home under the eminent domain law.

The group says that Souter's home should be razed and the land set aside for the "Lost Liberty Hotel."

Led by Californian Logan Darrow Clements, Freestar Media already has the minimum 25 signatures it needs to put the issue on the ballot in Weare, New Hampshire's next town meeting, scheduled for March.

A small group of activists arrived in Weare this weekend to try to gather more signatures and rally support. The group's Web site encourages the masses to visit Weare, where there currently are no hotels....

They don't take kindly to interlopers from far away........especially a wealthy RW media mogul that is big in the CA Republican Party scene.

Read his bio - he's a sleazebag.

2. I think this is great
maybe Souter will think twice about future rulings that could harm the "little" person.
