A legal arguement and a political arguement are different things.

You're the one who debuted on this thread with the asinie argument that everything said herein must be considered a political argument for gov't action.

Don't cry when I turn your own stupid statement around for my own amusement.

:sigh: I can't figure out if you are actually as clueless as you seem, or if you are just doing it to annoy me.

There is big "P" Political, which encompasses everything that the Government does.

Then, there is a division of powers, where we have the legislature do "political" things (you can replace the word "political" here with "policy" if that helps you), and the courts deal with "legal" things.

It's pretty clear the discussion of Mary Cheney's kid is big "P" Political.

But to the question of privacy, there is small p "political" things that can and should be done about it. I've stated my preferences. From a "legal" standpoint, it's an entirely different issue.

Do you get it yet? Or do you need to go back to PoliSci 101?
