Bush Family Email Accounts are Hacked

Filed under: This and That |

The Bush family might have expected to move on into life after politics without expecting any sort of interference from the rest of the world.  But this has hardly been the case recently, since the family’s email accounts have been attacked by unidentified computer hackers.   The hacker was able to get into three years worth of emails being shared by the Bush family, obtaining a great deal of confidential information in the process.

The Secret Service has begun its investigation into the matter, and the offender should expect harsh penalties if he/she is caught.   One of the emails reveals the secret security code for the gate of the family home.  Another one says that ”your Dad’s funeral team is having an emergency meeting at 10 a.m. just to go through all the details.”  The team apparently expected that the elder Bush was soon going to pass into the afterlife.

Secret Service spokesman George Ogilvie said the Secret Service is looking into the situation, but that they must remain secretive as they proceed.

“We are investigating the incident,” Ogilvie said. “Beyond that I can’t get into anything else.”

A total of six email accounts were compromised, and politicians are already speaking about the political implications of the incident. Rep. Jim Langevin, R-Rhode Island, who co-founded the Congressional Cybersecurity Caucus said that the incident shows that changes with the Internet, “make it all the more challenging to secure our private information.”

It’s ironic that George W. Bush has been the victim of a hacking scheme when he spent so many years as the head of the CIA.  We’re sure that the CIA is hacking its share of email accounts all over the world.

  1. This is really bad! It goes to show just how unprepared the nation is for the cyber war!

    All of the news agencies have been hacked.

    Citi Corps, and Bank of America have been hacked.

    Along with several government agencies.

    When the Iranians and Chinese “are doing all of the hacking” are confident enough they will in one fell swoop shut down the electric grid, and wall street!

    Think about it, no power and no money, not for a day but months, do you realize what the enemies of the United States could do to us in that amount of time. Think deeper! like no communications, computers, cell phone or other wise.

    Now consider we, USA, always react rather than being proactive, were in trouble! Now recognize the presidents sequestration program that he thought would never go forward in a 100 years, is now about to happen! In case you didn’t know, the military absorbs half $490 Billion, we might as well close up the shop. So we have healthcare and no Military to protect us. You decide !

    • Oh forget about it.

      “The possibilities” of invasion of privacy are long gone. That got away from us a long time ago and subsequently ended during the Bush administration.

      If we weren’t talking about it then, there’s not much of a point in discussing it now.
