Saad What?!? Harry Reid’s Shameful Trampling of Privacy Rights.

By N. Beaujon May 14, 2005 Every day the news gets more reprehensible. Yesterday Harry (“Valley Girl”) Reid, a formerly unknown Congressperson, again, made gossipy headlines by illegally exposing the FBI file of Bush judicial nominee, Judge Henry Saad. At a press conference, otherwise known as “Democrat Shrews take to the Mic to Embarrass Themselves”, Reid stated that “"Henry Saad would have been filibustered anyway…All you need to do is have a member go upstairs and look at his confidential report from the FBI, and I think we would all agree that there is a problem there…” Never mind that the innuendo dripping from Reid had all the savoir fair of a bitter Valley Girl gossiping out her new rival but “leaking” the contents of a highly confidential FBI file is downright illegal. Liberals love to expound on privacy rights but then, inexplicably, go around scavenging FBI files for their bon mots like homeless people digging for day old pizza at the bottom of a dumpster. After all, who can forget Craig Livingston, under orders from the Clinton administration, clutching over 600 confidential FBI files in his chubby little, ex-bouncer paws? In comparison to this crowd Richard Nixon was a piker. (The remainder of this article can be read at http://www.nbeaujon.com/saad_what.htm )

One, I think Reid is lying. Why would Saad have been nominated if he had such problems (Bernard Kerik notwithstanding)and why would his nomination not have been withdrawn?

Secondly and more importantly, this is unconscionable of Reid. It is character assassination pure and simple, using information that the public is not privy to, and thus cannot be refuted of denied.

If this keeps up the next couple of weeks are going to be very interesting!

Probably not outright lying, just smearing again. The FBI file probably has some information from someone Saad had to get aggressive with. Thus the temperment issue again. You know Dims they only like compliant Republicans.

It does beg the question: Isn't it against senate ethics to deal so carelessly with someone's reputation?

"All you need to do is have a member go upstairs and look at his confidential report from the FBI...."
This is the trip (upstairs) that NOT ONE DEMOCRAT SENATOR MADE TO LOOK AT THE WJC IMPEACHMENT MATERIAL.
