The Capital Research Center has published a critical profile (PDF, scroll to p. 5) of the left-wing Community Rights Counsel, "probably the most pro-government public interest organization in the country", with which it confusingly shares an acronym; the latter group has earned mention in these pages for its hardball campaign against economics-oriented seminars for judges, and has also been diligent in pressing for an expansive view of government's eminent domain powers. The profile is written by Institute for Justice attorney Scott Bullock, who crossed swords with the organization in Kelo v. New London.
