Kafka in Ohio

The 2008 presidential campaign of Barack Obama, exercising the state's power upon those who speak the truth:

Ohio Inspector General Tom Charles said his office is now looking at a half-dozen agencies that accessed state records on Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher.

The Beacon Journal has learned that, in addition to the Department of Job and Family Services, two other state offices — the Ohio Department of Taxation and Ohio Attorney General Nancy Rogers — conducted database searches of Joe the Plumber.

To be fair (as is my way), it wasn’t the campaign that did this, it was its followers. Operating just like a well oiled political machine should; be proactive in defending The Leader that he doesn’t soil his hands doing the dirty work himself (as far as we know).

And this begs the question: who were the bigger pieces of shit here, the diggers of dirt or the lapdogs in the press regurgitating it?
