Thanks for the thread, and further confirmation of the Obama mess,...

...and, my favorite SPAM recipe is cubed/fried spam with scrambled eggs, hash browns and multi-berry jam cover toast.

Here let me before the left shows up to do it . FOX news only an idiot would beleive anything they say they only report in what you right wing nut jobs want to hear . There now we have that out of the way . We can get on to a civil conversation .

Very interesting that the White House let this out of the bag . It will be interesting to see if the president gets smart and turns coat on the likes of pelosi and reed . He might actually have a decent chance of getting some of his issues passed if he didn't have a couple of 3rd graders poking sticks at the right and calling them names . I beleive he is far more intellagent than the people he has "backing " him and that he knows by now they are a liability not an asset .

EVERYTHING obama does is a well-rehearsed set up (aka marketing campaign).

Although I feel a little left out; never got an e-mail from AxelRahm.

You believe anything you hear from the guy and his press agents at your own peril.

Looks like they were doing what they could to blunt the snitch list/use taxpayer dough for pushing ObamaCommieCare that everyone found out about.

"This is yet another ominous chapter in the administration's rabid campaign to jam its radical health care scheme onto an unwilling public by any means necessary..."

God, I love it when politicians get melodramatic....and their public eats it up.

The next paragraph: "Govdelivery sent hundreds of e-mails from senior adviser David Axelrod asking supporters to help rebut criticism of Obama's health care plan circulating on the Internet. It also sent e-mails highlighting Obama's speech to the Muslim world in Cairo and the announcement of Sonia Sotomayor as a Supreme Court nominee."

A few hundred emails, folks. Not thousands or millions. and you know what? I get 'unsolicited' garbage emails on a regular basis, shoving their 'rabid' political content down my throat. Who do I complain to?

Govdelivery does extensive work with a bevy of federal, state, and local agencies, including 11 Cabinet-level departments such as Defense, State, and Justice. Among the tasks Govdelivery performs are FBI internal e-mails and external regional crime alerts, and FEMA hurricane or other natural disaster alerts.

In fact, before Jan. 1, Govdelivery handled 85 percent of mass e-mail deliveries for federal agencies.

The White House said it hired Govdelivery based on its performance with those agencies. The company was hired after Jan. 1 but before Obama took office on Jan. 20.

The White House notes that Govdelivery also handles mass e-mails for Texas Gov. Rick Perry and Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, both Republicans.


They handled 85% of federal mass email deliveries while Bush was in office. Obviously a sinister, anti-American outfit....

I've never received political email. Must be because I'm on the watch list. They know as soon as they send one, there'll be .224" holes all over the computer screen.

Why not? You think only the irrational right should get to hog the stage and the mikes?

Part of the problem is that people like you actually believe anyone who disagrees with you must be some sort of leftist radical. You're so blindly far right that normal people look like leftists to you....

Found a recipe today for clam hash: clams, diced potatoes, chopped scallions or onion.

Melt butter in a pan, press the ingredients into the pan, and cook slowly for twenty minutes or so, until browned. Put a plate over the pan and turn the hash into it, add more butter to the pan, and put the hash back in to brown on the other side. It should come out as a big patty you cut into servings.

well, as one of the recipients of these emails (about 5 already from Obama, axelrod, and obamas wife), I am not exactly happy about it. First, I don't want to hear the lies and BS about their health care reform bill. Second, the inbox they got sent too is 98% full of emails that I don't want to delete because I use them as references and such, and these guys keep clogging it up. That email is the one I use for friends and family only. I have three other emails for junk. Third, THE TAXPAYERS including me payed for this company to send SPAM to our emails!! AWESOME!! Thanks for taking my money and using it to clog up my personal email!! It is really cool when you hit "unsubscribe" (as if I ever subscribed in the first place) and they keep sending you emails.

I guess you guys lucked out if you are not getting this junk.

I wonder if there's any way you can reroute their own e-mails to each other so's they start jamming/spamming each other
