US Democrats Accidentally Publish Whistleblowers' Email Addresses

iluvcapra writes "The US House Judiciary Committee recently emailed all of its potential whistleblowers information about how it was restructuring its whistleblower program. Unfortunately for its sources, it emailed them this information with their addresses in the "To:" field (and not the Bcc: field) It also cc:'d this email to the Vice President. I'd like to think think this is some sort of ingenious subterfuge, but I'm doubtful."

  1. Is Ron Paul for real? by Fantastic+Lad · · Score: 0, Offtopic
    Damn these Democrats. They seem like such an amazing bunch of yes-man buffoons only pretending to do their jobs! They've dropped the ball in congress, doing exactly NOTHING about Iraq, and Hillary seems like more of the same bullshit, reflecting this wishy-washy do-nothing approach while offering lots of supplicating words. Plus I wouldn't be surprised to see her nuke Iran. This Ron Paul guy, however, the one which Fox is trying to destroy, at least, sounds earnest. But is that for real or is it just more smoke and mirrors?

    Any thoughts on Ron Paul? He's against national health care, but I can almost let that go as it sounds like normal dyed in the wool Republican logic. If you could somehow combine Ron Paul and Clinton into a single candidate. . . Aw hell, is it even possible to have an actual vote anymore? Is Bush even planning to leave office in 2008?

    Sheesh. You Americans have me all worked up with your politics. I have work to do, damn it!

It's an interview with one of Paul's supporters with tough questions about how much of government and society would function in a scenario where there was a minimalist government centered around the U.S. Constitution.
