I’ve heard the “embarrassing..” comment before. Do you have an actual reference?

I went to look for it. It looks like the interpretation was overstated:

http://docs.justia.com/cases/federal/district-courts/pennsylvania/paedce/2:2008cv04083/281573/15/

See page 6: II. Discussion

Rule 26(c)(1) authorizes the Court to enter a protective order from "annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, or undue burden or expense," including an order forbidding the discovery or specifying terms for discovery.

thanks,
that’s kinda what I thought the original quote was about. I appreciate the reference. For the record, I do think there is something BO’s trying to hide. I don’t much care what it is but I do care that the American people don’t have all the facts necessary to make an intelligent decision come Nov 4.
Did you hear that, due to anticipated crowding, Repubs are being asked to vote 11/4 and dems are being asked to vote on 11/5? Sounds like a good plan to me. Probably will cut down on climate change too.
