Got someone's credit report? Why is that a dirty trick?

A dirty trick is actually doing something wrong, false, misleading, illegal, libelous, etc. to someone in order to damage them personally, legally and politically, or to sway an election. Like spreading false word the candidate is gay or a coward in battle or sleeps with his intern.

It is unethical to get opponent's credit reports, but if that's all you do, it's no big deal. I would think most campaigns try to get this kind of info as part of "opposition research".

Doesn't the Washington Times have bigger stories to report? How about the gross election fraud in 2000,2002 and 2004 by the Bushie GOP which put Bush into power to begin with and helped swipe the senate? In Ohio last year the entire thing may have been stolen. AT least 40,000 Kerry voters were stopped from voting. The GOP there used every dirty trick ever invented including putting up only two voting machines for an entire college campus, and sending black voters phony letters saying they were not registered. Not to mention the potential for fixing the vote with the Diebold machines which intentionally left no paper trail. Those are dirty tricks.
