Topic: Secret Email Accounts for Obamites? More than an innocent Choom club perk?

Mums the word...lips are tighter than the Mob of Old...you know, before they started ratting each other out.

All innocent I'm sure...not like we have a rogue government on the loose violating our civil rights, hoarding guns and ammo, spying on us...

Oh, wait...Yes we do!!!

I had heard of Lisa Jackson's "Richard Windsor" account but it hadn't occurred to me that others would have them. It makes perfect sense when you think about it. I would have one...several actually, I have about a half a dozen now...if I was in one of those positions just from a practicality standpoint so that I could sift through the BS for essential communication. Anyone who is high profile does this...Limbaugh, for instance. But government employees, especially cabinet level, would be putting all sorts of things through them that would be more than a little interesting to oversight committees and they would take on an air of scandal as far as the public is concerned because of the "secret" aspect.

Gaining access to these email accounts is going to be an absolute gold mine for the committees.

I'd be surprised if anything short of an invasion will get them though...there is nothing but defiance coming from this Regime...they DO NOT answer to nobody...not Congress, not the Courts, not the Constitution...nobody.

And who here thinks the Pubbies can even hope to play hardball here and get physical?  Not me.

My prediction - These secret communications will never be seen.  They'll destroy them before they hand them over.

I can see Precedent Urkel's Precedential Library now:  1 piece of paper with 'Sealed By Executive Order' on it.  And the admission charge to see such insightful stuff will be in the $50K range, all going to the Barack Obama Retirement Fund.

It will be ravaged and burned to the ground rather easily during The Troubles...after all it will only be the size of a photo booth...

Sorry, doesn't work.  There is the official document retention requirement, and emails other than from their official account might not be retained; I also think FOIAs will ignore these secondary (or more) email accounts.  Using an unofficial email account for official business means something fishy is going on, that there is something to hide.  And with this criminal crew, we see that in spades.
