Jeb Bush released your emails?
If you sent any email to Jeb while he was governor here in Florida you can now find them on the internet. Jeb decided in the interest of transparency to release all of his emails from his administration. While openness is a worthwhile goal unfortunately many Floridians included what would seem to be information they would not want made public and any release of Jeb's emails should have reviewed them for such information.

"Jeb Bush, in an effort to portray himself as a transparent and accessible leader, released a hoard of emails early Tuesday morning, along with the first chapter of his e-book. Bush posted online about 275,000 emails from his time as Florida's governor spanning from 1999 to 2007. The emails had already been obtained, analyzed and published by media outlets, including CNN, and Democratic opposition research group American Bridge. But Bush's decision to make them available himself is an attempt to get ahead of critics and opponents who'll try to define Bush in their own way as he prepares for a potential presidential bid. Jeb Bush releasing emails, e-book chapter - CNN.com "Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush released the first chapter of his e-book Monday night, detailing some of the emails he received in his early days in office and even bringing back the Courier font in which many of them were originally written. Entitled “Please Make Happen,” the first chapter is 30 pages and highlights a careful selection of emails to his staff and to ordinary Floridians. He also released his email archive, which was previously reported by several news organizations, including POLITICO, and obtained through public records requests.

Why was this not in Political ? Was THE VERGE the only site to serve your purpose ? |

I would think any correspondence with a government official would in some way be a matter of public record. I would assume so anyway. When we log on, search, click, send, etc., I think it is best to assume nothing is private.

Three questions......WHY did you use this site as a link instead of mainstream ? And once you read that it is basically old news, why still post it ? And why not use the new Political forum ? That forum was set up so that folks who do not want to read political trolling did not have to ? why you did not use. From your link......"Many of the same emails Bush released today may have already been available online as of December, 2014, thanks to a request made by the Florida Center for Investigative Reporting. Some publications, including The Washington Post and The Hill, combed the email records for policy insight, but did not appear to stumble upon sensitive personal information." |

1. I used the site The Verge as it was the one used by the website where I found the story. It seems to be a straightforward report of the facts. I didn't know I should limit my links to pre-approved ones. You are free to discredit this site based on what biases you find either in their reporting of this story or their overall content. That would be fair and even welcome as I share your apparent belief that the particular website where information is found may be pertinent as to whether the information is presented accurately. 2. It is not old news to me nor apparently was it to you. The quote you provided seems to indicate that these email were released "today" and that it included more than had been available in the past as evidenced by the phrase "many of" rather than all of. It was Jeb who made it not old news. I don't believe the prior content of these emails was ever highlighted on the internet until today. He today was proud of this release which he apparently felt was not old news as he tweeted from USA Today, if that site is ok Jeb Bush releases e-mails in ‘spirit of transparency’ | OnPolitics Quote:

I can only say that I, unlike you obviously, am not concerned at all....and you can twist that any way you want.....not important to me. A poster asked a question about Sharia law and had a number of responses most of which simply said....NO. IT got moved to Political. A diss of or questioning of a presidential candidate, I suppose is NOT political, but as always you will know best...so best of luck. i would say you dont want it on Political because you will simply be named as GUEST |

I like Jeb Bush.
I think he is more moderate than some. |

And a cricket is taller than a cockroach. Faint praise. He may be likable, can't argue with that. And the family lore is that he is the brightest of the Bush kids.
