The big deal is that a judge ordered thousands of individual private records be violated to attempt to find incriminating evidence against a sitting President! Again, WE are NOT worried Bush has incriminating evidence against him. We are furious that a judge overstepped his bound to invade the privacy of thousands of service personel! This is a real live WITCHHUNT dragging their records & lives into the mix!

I understand and I'm not arguing that point. My comments were for the posters here that feel this will hurt Bush and are in panic-mode.

As for the privacy issue, I don't understand what this judge did either. When Bush is reelected, privacy legislation should be moved to the forefront of the Administration's domestic goals, IMO.

Okay, then. I agree. There should be no panic about how this will effect Bush. The entire country has just witnessed CBS forging documents to benefit Kerry. They will know this is the Dems latest effort.

The angle to this that disgusts me is the judge overstepping authority to violate the privacy of thousands of service members. I understand why the judge did it. I think earlier statements this was planned by the DNC in connection to the forged documents is accurate.

It sickens me the implications of this judgement. If anything, the GOP should be out using this verdict to explain to the people WHY we need to rein in the judges. Nothing will incense them more than knowing that our service members rights are ordered violated to seek information that may or may not even exist about an inconsequential matter.
