Thanks, to the ACLU, for taking on and winning the case of a young teenage girl, strip searched at school because another student claimed she had given her Advil. What the hell is wrong with some school officials? There are times they do not seem in possession of the brains they were born with. The case, of one child's frightening experience that will, without a doubt, be with her for the rest of her life and that’s not the chilling part. School, a place for learning, had become, this day in 2003, a place for terror... With all the bullying that goes on, many of our children are in fact, already afraid to go to school. Bullying by kids is one thing but harassment by a top school official (our employee) goes beyond the pale. A little Common Sense carried out by the school higher ups, would have absolved the whole incident with dignity for everyone. But, in defense of the school's inept vice principal, in (Bush/Neocon) 2003, insanity reigned supreme and Common Sense was in short supply!

The only judge on the court who voted to uphold the search was Clarence Thomas. Why does he have a vested interest in strip-searching 13-year-old girls?

Good point...! Maybe, we should ask, Anita Hill...
