More tech savviness: "And you just plug it into the wall and presto! Light!"
Jeb, Jeb, Jeb, you're going to have to
try harder:
Jeb Bush released the first chapter of his forthcoming e-book Tuesday ... The carefully selected batch of emails paints Bush as determined to run a tech-savvy and transparent administration.
... because what else did Gov. Tech Savvy do on Tuesday? He decided to be super transparent with the names and email addresses of his
former constituents:
Jeb Bush, a rumored 2016 Republican presidential candidate, just decided to publish hundreds of thousands of emails sent to him during his time as governor of Florida. On its face it seems like a great idea in the name of transparency, but there's one huge problem: neither Bush nor those who facilitated the publication of the records decided to redact potentially sensitive personal information from them.
"In the spirit of transparency, I am posting the emails of my governorship here," a note on Bush's website says. "Some are funny; some are serious; some I wrote in frustration." Some also contain the email addresses, home addresses, phone numbers, and social security numbers of Florida residents.
But hey, mistakes happen, even to the savviest, so that was probably his only tech-related screw up this week,
right?
Oops.
