Stupid People And The Internets

Don't they know that this bunch a tubes does leave fingerprints? So to circumvent White House record keeping requirements under the Presidential Records Act they send their self-incriminating emails offsite using addresses with extensions such as ".gwb43.com" or "rnchq.com":

One email, sent to Justice Department Chief of Staff D. Kyle Sampson from J. Scott Jennings, White House Deputy Political Director, uses an email account, SJennings@gwb43.com, on a server owned by the Republican National Committee. This raises serious questions about whether the White House was trying to deliberately evade its responsibilities under the PRA, which directs the president to take all necessary steps to maintain presidential records to provide a full accounting of all activities during his tenure.

A number of other emails from Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove’s former assistant Susan Ralston to convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff document Ms. Ralston’s use of three outside domains: rnchq.com (used for the headquarters of the Republican National Committee), georgebush.com and aol.com. In many of these emails Ms. Ralston is communicating inside White House information to Mr. Abramoff in response to Mr. Abramoff’s efforts to broker deals for his clients and place specified individuals in positions within the administration.


But then again these people are not known as being the sharpest knives in the drawer, are they?

Gotta Love CREW! And the people that just keep them sooooooooooooo busy!
