[extropy-chat] medical privacy

[Trend Ologist]

 There are two sides to this. Limbaugh's maid got
caught procuring meds for him and she didn't want to
take the rap alone-- which was only what could be
expected. If I send the boy who delivers my newspaper
on an errand to pick up a stash of oxycontin for me I
can't plead ignorance of the consequences. Though
Limbaugh was only looking out for his own interests,
he is a public figure who espouses law & order so
though he doesn't deserve to be prosecuted he does
deserve to be ridiculed for his double standard... the
rest of us get heat for our hypocrisies, don't we?
Anyway, he stuck his foot in the poop and now he's got
to wipe it off. Limbaugh got caught breaking a bad
law, the prosecution will push the case until public
pressure (Limbaugh is too popular to be hurt over such
a small scandal) forces it to be dropped with perhaps
a fine, and attention will be drawn to medical privacy
issues.
 The biggest winner will be the maid who will write a
book, "Rush Limbaugh's Mule", that she can plug on
Larry King Live. In America there is no limit to what
you can achieve.
