One party state watch: Congressional Republicans warn Major League Baseball against allowing George Soros to take an ownership stake in the Washington Nationals.

Roll Call reports that the following from Government Reform Chair Tom Davis (R-VA): “I think Major League Baseball understands the stakes. I don’t think they want to get involved in a political fight … I don’t think it’s the Nats that get hurt. I think it’s Major League Baseball that gets hurt. They enjoy all sorts of exemptions” from anti-trust laws.

Do these jokers need to be reminded of the constitution’s prohibition of bills of attainder.
