NEW YORK - Tomorrow night Dan Proft, President of Leader Media, and former advisor to former Senate Candidate Jack Ryan will appear on O'Reilly factor to discuss the push from the media to delve into sealed divorce records. Proft is among those now suing for access to John Kerry's sealed records. ABC News and Fox are both pursuing the developing story - that appears now to be destined to open the private files of the Democratic candidate for President.

Ouch. Payback is a b!tch.
Although, I think they should have let the media do it without prodding from any political figures.
This is really none of my business and I see no reason for the state to be opening records of private citizens against their wishes. Even idiot private citizens.
Despite the vile methods employed by the left, and the pragmatism of being just like them; this is wrong.
Personally, I don't like this. But I heard Napolitano saying on Fox that opening Ryan's records was the right decision, and he is quite conservative.
He said that anytime you file anything in court, you should expect it to be part of the public record, even sealed divorce cases. I find this strange, but I don't agree with lots of things judges decide.
What is the media thinking? Don't they know this kind of invasive probing is only relevant when dealing with Alabama National Guard dental records?
Sealed records...I guess not. Kerry is an ass, but I don't think it takes unsealing private divorce records to see that.
I see a storm brewing in the path of the S. S. Kerry.
Mrs. Ryan
A judge in Boston? You have to be kidding..
Think about it: The one good thing about Massachusetts' recognition of "gay marriage" is that we may one day have the pleasure of suing to have Barney Franks' divorce records unsealed.
If Ryan's records were their business, this is our business. Fire with fire. Dirty bastards ruin Ryan and now they want to get sanctimonious.
Remember this is the People's Republic of Massachusetts, the feudal lands and serfs of the Kennedys. The courts there are ,shall we say, politically oriented. Kerry's records will never be opened up before the election. Now if it were a Republican candidate, the records would be "outed" to the media before the first phone call from a reporter was finished.
The bigger question is why were the record sealed in the first place? Except for matters dealing with child custody, in most states divorce records are open to the public unless sealed by the court for compelling reasons.
Napolitano is not conservative.
That's what they want you to think, nopw that they've ruined our guy by the same means, they can talk about how wrong it is. Their mission is already accomplished.

XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX SUN JUNE 27, 2004 20:34:08 ET XXXXXCHASE ON FOR SEALED KERRY DIVORCE DOCUMENTS; PAPER FRENZY AFTER ILLINOIS SENATE RACE RELEASE
After last week's front page headlines over ugly unsealed divorce records in the Republican Illinois senate race, media outlets now face a dilemma: What to do about Democrat presidential hopeful John Kerry's sealed divorce records!
The race is on in political and media circles to gauge the import of Kerry's sealed July 25, 1988 divorce from his first wife, Julia Stimson Thorne.
Hillary needs them for the election.
I'd rather they forced Tay Raise Ahhh to release her tax returns in full...but this will do....(grin)
Lets see how much Senator Gigilo made off of that....
Its about time.
I find it wrong to open sealed records, but if it was done to one candidate, than it must be done to another. Why is it of public concern for a congressional candidate, yet not for a presidental candidate?
It is stooping to the dims level, but sometimes you must.
Only Republican divorce cases or DWI cases may be opened to the media. It's like Teresa's tax return. Not to be made public.
I believe, should you check, parts, or all, of divorce records are public information.
At least those parts of a divorce that are litigated before a judge.
You may not wish to be aware of the information, as it may, or may not, relate to a candidate for public office, but I dare say there are others that do.
And you managed to keep a straight face delivering the punch line...My hat is off to you, FRiend.
The former Mrs Ryan! Mamma mia! She is hot hot hot! Seven of Nine? I give her a Ten of Ten!
But Kerry is not a private citizen. He's a public servant and could be one who governs us all.

This afternoon, Leader Media President Dan Proft announced that IllinoisLeader.com plans to file suit to obtain Massachusetts' Senator John Kerry's, the presumptive Democrat nominee for President, sealed divorce records from his first marriage to Julia Thorne which was later annulled.
Go baby go!
What's good for the goose...
The headline is false. It's isn't 'The Media' suing for opening Kerry's records, it's Jack Ryan's former advisor suing. So Ryan got caught with his pants down so he is going after someone else's divorce records. I seriously doubt that Kerry was taking his first wife to sex clubs and trying to get her to have sex in front of strangers.
This move is almost psychotic and makes Ryan and/or his advisor look like petty fools.
(Bows)
Thank you.
I agree Divorce proceedings are public records - it's done all the time with celebrities but I don't see any need to do this. What is it going to accomplish? The American people get turned off by this kind of stuff during an election year.
Thanks for the insinuation that I think what they want me to think.
It is wrong based on principle. There's a bad word you can have fun with at my expense.
Please; praise the pragmatism of socialism, and ridicule the principles of decency.
Just another thing Republicans will be beat up over -- just watch! I can hear the talking points now.
Theres no guarentee that they will even find anything of substance. I think there is more traction to be gained if the request is denied. If it is made public that Ryans files were opened and JF'nK's were denied, it will make people distrust the liberal judges/media even more - and hopefully add to the distain of Ketchup boy.
How would you like to be their kid when he looks at his friend's locker at school and sees that pic of his mom there.....And they are worried about court records bothering him. These parents need to be replaced.
Hell. You should see the pictures I chose not to post!
Once again I see the conservatives amongst us getting all noble and wishy-washy. This is NOT the way to go.
The Dems are waging an all-out war and we're gonna sit around and wallow in our nobility?
Or maybe the Repubs will get so fed up they'll start cursing in the senate and such?
The ONLY way to stop their dirty wars is to, as the poster says above, fight fire with fire. When they realize two can play their games, maybe everyone will back off.
I am a former Democrat and knew how to rig a voting machine when I was 8 years old. LEARN!
Exactly what I was thinking.
The public has a right to know in the case of political figures. Ryan/Illinois has had to cough up his records.
Let's just wait and see what lies therein. Could be mighty interesting stuff...or not.
Bingo. I think this was planned as well. They are doing a Wellstone. The difference is that they are going to assassinate Kerry's character.
End of July would be perfect, timing-wise.
Unfortunately, his medical records, military records and Theresa's tax records are private and cannot be released without their consent, but the media should be asking for them.
This is a start, at any rate, but I hope they're not bad enough to force him off the ticket, just damage him, because W appears to be in trouble if there is a Dem. candidate with any charisma.
I don't think it works that way. Liberals don't think like that at all and need far more convincing arguments to get it. If they ever do. Now it's a matter of showing bias in Massachussettes' judicial system.
If he's educated at the Paris Hilton School of the Famous, he'll think it's cool.
Aren't all sorts of records in civil litigation sealed from time to time?
Liability cases (product, medical, etc.) that settle after the trial has started but before they get to a jury often contain agreements that the parties will seal the terms and not discuss them further.
ROTFL, the media, going after Kerry? Give me a break, they're complicit in protecting him.
If they really cared they would be busy getting the military records still hidden away somewhere on the slimeball Kerry.
Even private citizens who aspire to become public citizens?
Don't forget Hillary's promise of an Oct. surprise.
