Lest Anyone Forget . . .

These days, we're hearing so much about Republican iniquity that it's worth pointing out that the D.C. Circuit has upheld a lower court ruling that Rep. Jim McDermott illegally (and secretly) taped a phone call between Rep. John Boehner and Rep. Newt Gingrich and then turned the tape over to reporters.

All the liberals who, today, are so concerned with privacy right for some reason held their tongues, way back then.

McDermott is being ordered to pay up to the tune of $700,000.
