I think you may be trying to do too much in the urls.py. Send all
logged in users to a view that uses the following tools:

user.is_staff
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#django.contrib.auth.models.User.is_staff

redirect
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/shortcuts/#django.shortcuts.redirect
