The Minister of Propaganda speaks! A$$hole.

I’ll take “who is Richard Windsor” for 100 Alex.

[CSM]

George Orwell was supposed to have written Fictional novels, not How-To manuals.

[CodeToad]

Were those alternate email address published internally such that any FOIA requests would capture those emails?

No? Then those were secret email addresses intended to violate the law and FOIA requests.

[freeangel]

In that case, all alternate addresses should be given to the House committees for investigatory purposes. There wouldn’t be a problem with that, would there?/s

Under different names; Aliases if you prefer.
Right. They’re just hiding their identities so they can engage in underhanded and shifty business. What’s the big deal?

Has Obamanation become Bizzaro world? Seems so!

Yes it has, that and worse. I feel like we've been living in "Tales From The Darkside" since 2008.

[uncitizen]

"Public emails, or spam or the like..

Those things are all the same to them.

I just wonder how many hours this little twerp spent being shoved into lockers and how many wedgies he got.
This is the guy in the front row of every classroom with his hand up asking if there's any homework.
This is the guy who won't shut up when there's one minute to go in the class and the teacher wants to dismiss everyone.
This is the creep who questions every item that he got wrong on every test or quiz.
This is the guy who had to take his inflatable girl to the prom.

Alternate Address for lisa.jackson@epa.gov
was richard.windsor@epa.gov

Makes perfect sense to me. /sarc

[PATRIOT1876]

Quick, somebody find that kid from “Liar Liar’!

[sphinx]

The relevant question is whether emails to/from the alternate addresses were disclosed in response to FOIA requests.

[RedMDer]

[G Larry]

Well Jay...

Those “alternate e-mail addresses” were created for the expressed purpose of AVOIDING COMPLIANCE WITH FEDERAL LAW!”

Since they weren’t intended to be found, THEY WERE “SECRET”!!!

[Forty-Niner]

We’re not alone.....Even here in California, in the grocery store aisles, people see it and are fed up with Obama. They volunteer that info without a prompt on my part. I can’t believe th pols that say Obama has near 50% approval.....Where?

[Buckeye McFrog]

Disturbingly enough, Dana Perino seemed to be defending this practice on Hannity last night. Seems as if some in the Bush administration did this, or at least thought about it.

[faithhopecharity]

replacing this liar would do no good
the job duties in this administration require it
