So Limbaugh walks pending his staying clean from pharmabuse, but is he the only on who benefits?
This bit from the UK Guardian caught my eye:
Is the deal a victory for Limbaugh?
``This is a dismissal of the charge ... representing, in affect, a win for the defense,'' said Kendall Coffey, a former U.S. attorney and prominent Miami defense lawyer.
``Having said that, I wouldn't call this case a major defeat for the prosecution. They fought and won an important legal point in establishing that you can use a search warrant in Florida to secure medical records,'' Coffey added. ``That's an important precedent for prosecutors around the state. This could be the rare situation where both sides made a deal and can walk away feeling some satisfaction.''
Now, I'm not sure what the implications for this are, or exactly what kind of info police etc can glean from medical records -
But given the admininstrations blatent disregard for human rights thus far and it's persecutorial drive in chasing down "internal enemies" who are presumed to be guilty I think that perhaps it is important.
Thoughts, suggestions, etc?
