An anonymous reader writes "The Columbus Dispatch tells a story unreported by many mainstream media outlets and missing from Google News main page about how government insiders accessed Joe the Plumber's records soon after the McCain-Obama debate.

"Public records requested by The Dispatch disclose that information on Wurzelbacher's driver's license or his sport-utility vehicle was pulled from the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles database three times shortly after the debate.

Information on Wurzelbacher was accessed by accounts assigned to the office of Ohio Attorney General Nancy H. Rogers, the Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency and the Toledo Police Department."

Welcome to 1984."
