For another example, Harry Reid has admitted accessing raw FBI files of a judge and that is forbidden.

Got a link for this? That could be really useful if we can get it into the right hands.

Kennedy says ethics has to be more than a class, it has to be part of your life. Bwahahahah. The west wing has been taken over from the right wing. We are consumed by scandal after scandal. Americans want an absolute cleaning of the house. (Kennedy wants Bush out.) Says Rove should resign. On the Reid thing, Johnnie, he said it on the floor of the Senate during the debates running up to the formation of the gang of 14. It would be in the Congressional Record. Bunches of us heard it.

Reid said it on the Senate floor, and it was picked up by CSPAN and others. He was suggesting that all senators had to do was go see them, indicating he had, to get more information on a judge.

Reid cites FBI file on judicial pick

(May 13, 2005)


By Charles Hurt
THE WASHINGTON TIMES

Minority Leader Harry Reid strayed from his prepared remarks on the Senate floor yesterday and promised to continue opposing one of President Bush's judicial nominees based on "a problem" he said is in the nominee's "confidential report from the FBI."
Those highly confidential reports are filed on all judicial nominees, and severe sanctions apply to anyone who discloses their contents. Less clear is whether a senator could face sanctions for characterizing the content of such files.
