What is Lunsford Talking About?
It appears that Lunsford is coming a bit unhinged over this tape recording flap.
First off, why is he involving himself in the case the weekend before the election? The Grand Jury isn't till after the election. He can worry about it after the election. It is silly to get sidetracked on such a minor issue this close to an election. Second and more importantly, I don't think we need someone writing laws in DC who doesn't have a basic understand of laws we currently have.
Democrat Bruce Lunsford's campaign says he will tell a Marshall County grand jury that a Republican operative "illegally bugged" his speaking platform during a debate in Western Kentucky.What the hell is Lunsford talking about? I want to know how somone can be "illegally bugged" in a public forum? An illegal bug refers to an incident where a private conversation is recorded without the person knowing it. A public debate is not one of those places. Lunsford does not have a right to privacy in this instance. It would be ridiculous to assume otherwise. Are they going to tell me that someone with a directional microphone in the audience was bugging him as well? Such an assumption would be ludicrous.
