I prefer to get my information direct from the source, rather than have it spoon fed to me via some intermediary with either a left or right wing agenda. Try here:
http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache...+Circuit&hl=en

The land owner is P.O'd because he can't get any state of Arizona contracts because the site has been declared HISTORIC, not religous. The owner is still free to sell his conglomerate to privately owned concerns. I find it amusing that all these right wing, Libertarian outfits have jumped on the bandwagon for this guy's right to swill at the government trough.

Perhaps the Native American groups didn't attempt to outbid McKinnon because the sale and his plan for the subsequent use of the land were not made public knowledge?

Let's hear it for the rights of the American businessman to belly up to the tax payer pork barrel! Damn that 9th circuit court of appeals, anyhow! I'm glad to hear you're willing to share your tax payer dollar with SOMEONE, Lookout. Is he a client of your firm?

Is THAT the best reply you can come up with? So, Lookout, are you engaged in insider trading, too? That question is as applicable and as demeaning as yours was. Give everyone a break, already!

I checked out the site for myself, and name-calling aside, that DOES seem to be the crux of the dude's beef - that the Arizona department of highways won't buy his conglomerate. Anyone else in the world can, however.

Sometimes never comes along sooner than you think. Flippant was over using my computer and after she left I went on the cellar without realizing the computer still had her logged in. I wrote my reply, hit "send", and to my horror my post appeared under poor Flippant's name. I already apologized to her, and I apologize to you, as well, Lookout, for the confusion.

From the original link;
Quote:
A month after McKinnon’s oral arguments, the Ninth Circuit ruled in another case involving religion and land use. Ordering the removal of a Latin cross, which memorialized the veterans who died in World War I, from the National Park Service’s Mohave National Preserve, the Ninth Circuit held, “[T]he Establishment Clause [means] government may not demonstrate a preference for one particular sect or creed (including a preference for Christianity over other religions).”
Oh, is that so.
