Presidential plans found in the trash

How much do you think Osama bin Laden would pay to know exactly when and where the President was traveling, and who was with him? Turns out, he wouldn't have had to pay a dime. All he had to do was go through the trash early Tuesday morning. Advertisement

It appears to be a White House staff schedule for the President's trip to Florida Tuesday. And a sanitation worker was alarmed to find it in the trash long hours before Mr. Bush left for his trip.

It's the kind of thing you would expect would be shredded or burned, not thrown in the garbage.
Randy Hopkins could not believe what he was seeing.

...

"I saw locations and names and places where the President was going to be. I knew it was important. And it shouldn't have been in a trash hole like this," he said.

1. It's Bush himself...

...that someone ought to put in the trashcan.

Think how awful if AL GORE had been in office in 2001! Can you imagine how much worse off we would be? :sarcasm:

7. okay, I fail to see a problem here. he has public appearances on his

schedule, people know about them. it isn't as if florida is some foreign country where he is engaging in secret talks. . . . on the other hand. . . .

8. Maybe someone in the WH doesn't like Bush?

10. The moral of this story is that

the sanitation worker is smarter than the White House staff. Enough said!!!!!

11. Did Ollie North take the shredders with him when he left?

You would think every piece of paper coming out of the White House would be shredded.


I'm thinking about buying one of the home models to shred my papers (receipts, credit card statements, medical information). So doesn't the White House have shredders?

12. * is a piece of trash. Are they sure HE wasn't playing in the can?

?

15. I hope 'my pet goat' was not on his list of reading materials while there

could be something bad in the works...

16. Well it's nice to know that he considers his own privacy

as important as ours.
