But the folks who know will not break the law to tell us.

A decision I respect but not one I would make. After all, there are higher issues at stake than a person's privacy.

From a practical standpoint, anyone who is running for president has given up just about every aspect of a private life imaginable. Not everything, mind you, but just about everything, certainly any claim that his right to privacy encompasses deep-sixing a military record.

That's how I would approach it if I had the information but was bound by a law that's being used to cover up issues of the kind that we face today. We simply cannot have a President who lies about his military record, who makes a big show out of "reporting for duty."

The sad thing is that the Dems are going to feel utterly betrayed by this clown should he get elected and the information does, somehow, become public.

If I had the information, those are the reasons I would get it out in public.

Perhaps these guys fear recriminations under a Kerry presidency should the information not torpedo his candidacy. No jury would convict them, however. If there ever was a case for jury nullification, this would be it.

Hell, it's probably too late now, anyway.
