How Bush went ‘cold turkey’ off emails
p2pnet news | Politics:- Dubaya loves computers, but as president of the US of A, he’s apparently had go “cold turkey” off email for “security reasons”.
So, “What are you looking forward to when you finally get your computer back?” – asks an interviewer in a Whitehouse Politico tape recorded just after the wedding of Bush’s daughter, Jenna, to Henry Hager.
“Emailing to my buddies,” says Bush.
“I can remember as governor I stayed in touch with all kinds of people around the country, firing off emails at all times of the day to stay in touch with my pals.
“One of the things that I will have ended my public service time with is a group of friends, a lot of friends. And I want to stay in touch with them and there’s no better way to communicate with them than through email.”
Rumours that George W. will soon be starting as new job as CEO of a revamped Google Pigeon Mail service are without substance.

Of course he will stay in touch – how else will he keep gas prices high if not for cronyism – old friends – riaa & mpaa are doing it all the time – slip some money in the coffers of their “old friends” and POOF! new laws are formed in their favor – besides ole G.W. doesnt want to be spied on – he knows exactly what the spying eyes are looking at and it sure isnt terrorists.
Cronyism is partiality to long-standing friends, especially by appointing them to positions of authority, regardless of their qualifications. …

Along with the vacations, buddy emails and obvious, jocular indifference to the serious task at hand (and severe efforts in hedonism), it’s a wonder anyone noticed him at all…
“Mr President, the planes have hit the towers, we’re under attack”
