Mr. Limbaugh's records were siezed legally after the prosecuters followed Florida law by obtaining a search warrant and getting the approval of a judge. This only after allegations came to light of just what Mr. Limbaugh was up to. The ACLU contested that action and the whole affair was covered quite extensively in the media; so much for your "no one in the media" comment.

Surely you don't mean to equate Rush's troubles with our President's NSA records trolling adventures which are in VIOLATION of federal law and done WITHOUT judicial approval, none of which we were ever supposed to know about?
