"Wonder how many FOIA requests were made for Algore's or are being made now for John F'n Kerry's?"

Funny you should mention that, because the Boston Globe claims that they did try to get Kerry's military medical records, to check on the severity of his wounds (for which he got three purple hearts)--but Kerry REFUSED to waive his privacy rights. So the records are still sealed.

If they really tried they could do a FOIA request and get them from St. Louis where the military records repository is. And they would get a copy of his 201 file. The only files that Kerry, IMHO as a journalist, could claim privacy rights is if they were papers in his personal poession. The 201 file is still DN (Dept. of the Navy) property. The Globe is just, yet again, doing sloppy journalizm.
