dude federal authorities should totally investigate this fucker’s laptop. i bet there’s all sorts of illegal fucked up shit in there. sex is all he thinks about all day every day. there’s no way he has normal porn habits.
I will yet again say that your browser histories should be public information if you’re going to run for office, or at the very least once you get elected. With heavy penalties if it turns out you’re hiding anything.
I’m an elected state official in Florida at the extremely local level. Fuck off with that. People don’t need to know my browsing history. It’s entirely possible to judge someone’s fitness by the acts they take in office alone.

Why would I want to know their fitness after they were elected? Sorry, if you’re secretly a Nazi, I want to know before I vote for you.
What could possibly be in your browser history that you don’t want people to see?

I’m sorry, do you live in the same world as the rest of us? Seems like half the country wants to murder gay people and thinks porn should be illegal and you can’t fathom why someone might want to hide perfectly acceptable parts of their identity?
This would basically disallow any closeted gay/trans person from ever running for office, for example. People deserve their privacy.
My browsing history is my business, not yours or anyone else’s. You may as well start asking for my correspondence history, a record of the content of my private conversations, etc…
I understand the danger that bad actors posing as normal candidates pose. Trust me, I’ve dealt with it first hand. But throwing out huge swathes of otherwise qualified candidates because they aren’t willing to share every piece of their personal life is not the remedy.
When you’re going to be given governmental powers beyond a normal citizen’s, it’s everyone’s business what sort of person you really are.
A browser history is not every piece of a personal life.
I am sorry, but it sounds like you have a good reason to be opposed to this.
We rarely disagree, but on this one, I think you’re way off.
Dude, I normally agree with you, but not on this. You’re trying to set up a purity test for office. You might not use it that way, but the Repuglicans will.
Also do you really want to see your daughter’s entire browser history because you raised her well, and she decides to become a civil servant? Or worse, have it plastered all over the news? Think hard on that one.
If she did something nefarious that the public should know about? Absolutely I do. I’m not why you think I would consider family a special case and I’m sorry you think that I’m that sort of hypocrite because I sure have never indicated I am.
(Also, I don’t know why people insist on telling me they normally agree with me when they disagree with me, but it happens all the time.)
Congratulations, you’ve killed all political participation.

Its frustrating, because a Bush USA would have been so far up Ron’s ass he wouldn’t need those lifts in his shoes. But Obama and Biden just kinda shrug at this and let it slide.
