Jeb Bush dumps emails, home addresses, and social security numbers of Florida residents online
The Verge ^ | February 10, 2015 | T.C. Sottek

Jeb Bush, a rumored 2016 Republican presidential candidate, just decided to publish hundreds of thousands of emails sent to him during his time as governor of Florida. On its face it seems like a great idea in the name of transparency, but there's one huge problem: neither Bush nor those who facilitated the publication of the records, including the state government, decided to redact potentially sensitive personal information from them.

"In the spirit of transparency, I am posting the emails of my governorship here," a note on Bush's website says. "Some are funny; some are serious; some I wrote in frustration." Some also contain the email addresses, home addresses, phone numbers, and social security numbers of Florida residents. The emails are available in Outlook format, and can be searched on the web at Bush's website.

One does not have to be bright to win a Republican nomination or a general election either.

Probably emails from his wife asking about smuggling in contraband.

Sounds like he’s dumping something(s) that he doesn’t want to come out later.

Yep. With this large of a dump, I wonder what he's trying to bury?

W: "Now, remember, Jeb. Always protect PII."

Jeb: "PII. Got it! 'Publicans Innerested in...in...IHOP! I love them flapjacks!"

"No! No! Personally Identifiable Information! It's part of your job as governor!"

Giuliani: "What a moron!"

Maybe some LSM so called “journalist” will dig thru the emails. Maybe not. Both sides of the Establishment want Jeb to run so...it’ll have to be someone on the new media, such as a FReeper.

This is the kind of nonsense you get with “compassionate conservative” RINO types like the Bushes. Why do this in the first place?

WOW - huge mistake! You’d think with the team he can afford to have around him, someone would have figured out this might not be the thing to do!

Most of the folks I’ve met who called GWB “dumb” didn’t have much upstairs themselves.

Looks like we just found a major AHOLE in a BUSH. I never trusted this jerk and never will. We’ve got to do better or we will lose in 2016, even to the evil Marxist sisters, Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren.
