Obama Staffers Followed Palin's Email Lead On Inauguration Day
theodp writes "Using Yahoo's free e-mail service to conduct government business was good enough for Sarah Palin. And now the Washington Times reports that Obama staffers turned to Gmail on Inauguration Day to conduct their business. Those wishing to contact members of the incoming Obama administration were instructed to contact staffers at wh.LASTNAME@gmail.com until official White House e-mail addresses became available."
And now time for another strangely apropos /. meme
Seriously.. this place is turning into slashkos.
"You must be new here".
I laughed at the weak who considered themselves good because they lacked claws.
I support Obama, even canvassed for him, but I smell poo. This is actually worth considering because...
1) Google was Obama's #1 campaign contributor and has already received a number of "special considerations" that embed them into the Obama administration.
2) Once you start using an email address it is with you forever unless you're willing to dump all of your contacts. Not to mention force of habit.
3) Lame other reason here cause we must speak in threes to sound convincing.
Hate to be the paranoid guy when I'm usually working the opposite angle, but I don't like where this is going.
My poetry site welcomes the unusual.
