Free broadband for everyone!!!!
A typical liberal a$$wipe: Only the government can prepare us for the digital future. Not the peeples, not our capitalistic society, only the politicians.
And by the way, I thought we were already in the digital age and it seems people are using it pretty damn well without the politicians getting involved.
Indeed, what a load. Technology is not driven from the top down. The market very quickly determines what is required.
So you don’t use e-mail, but you post here?
Some of the comments are pretty good. :)
Leftists think they should be able to litigate anything and have a double standard against GOP administration with no consequences. The idiot who typed this story probably participated in creating these incentives for ANY GOP president not to use e-mail. Bush knows he could not keep any e-mail private unlike conversation which are a matter of recall and he knows this inability to keep any e-mail private would be used asymmetrically against GOP administrations by the press.
I have to say this is just more evidence to me of how smart Bush is and how much he understand Washington now better than he did when he arrived trying to work with both sides of the aisle.
ROFL!
It is still fairly common for politicians in office to not use e-mail.
Hey, hasn’t Bush been cutting those Internet cables over in the Middle East?
Yes. And we'll save every character and binary that you ever send or receive until the day you die. Just in case we need to get you for something.
Not sure many politicians wouldn't turn the clock back on that one.
“When George Bush assumed the presidency in 2001, the United States ranked fourth when it came to broadband penetration — the measure of access to digital services.
Now, as Bush enters his last year in office, the United States has dropped to 15th place. “
I read this study. It’s a pantload. Measuring apples to oranges. The very fact that the US doesn’t include telcom as part of government biases the results against us. IOW it’s rigged in favor of certain (socialist) countries.
The only thing that lies better than the Capital Times is a rug. Marxist liars, all.
The US doesn't have as much broadband penetration as other countries because we are a much more geographically dispersed country. Our population density is a fraction of what it is in Europe or the Pac Rim. Same reason we don't have a good high speed rail passenger network.
However, if you look at the leading software companies, you'll find that the US is far and above #1.
The most secretive? Really? I don't recall too much talk about Bill and Hill e-mails.
Because of legal restrictions, W ceremoniously STOPPED using email when he became president. This type of article is a lie from start to end.
That's because the whole thing was invented by AlGore while he was on the government payroll. Broadband is IP that belongs to the government (not the people)! dot-slash ess
I knew everything was Bush’s fault, but I didn’t know slow servers were his fault too! Anyway, I thought Algore invented the interweb, or whatever the kids are calling it.
"Tard" refers to the ping list members and not to the subject of the thread!

Indeed.
I have heard that, for the same reason, Condi Rice doesn’t do e-mails, either.
