I know of no instance in which Limbaugh contest the right of a citizen to
have his or her medical records protected from unreasonable search.
The editorial which prompted the title for this thread referenced a case in
which the Supreme Court held that the Constitution emmanated a penumbra
from which was brought forth a right to privacy that protected one's right
to do whatever one wanted, even when the police should happen to stumble
into said bedroom on a legal search warrant.
Clearly, the two are very much different.
