Politics: Nosy Verizon Employees Paw Through Obama’s Personal Cell-Phone Account

November 22nd, 2008

Barack Obama

 Some nosy Verizon employees improperly accessed and pawed through Barack Obama’s personal cell-phone account. Imagine the information contained in those records - possibly the numbers of family members and/or potential Cabinet secretaries.  The company announced on Friday that the account viewed was an inactive account, but an unspecified number of employees were immediately suspended and “appropriate disciplinary action” was taken. “We apologize to President-elect Obama and will work to keep the trust our customers place in us every day,” Verizon Wireless CEO Lowell McAdam said in a press release.  An Obama aide told Reuters that “no voice or e-mails were listened to or read, on the old cell phone which Obama no longer uses.” The president-elect already had his passport files snooped into by federal contractors, while an Ohio agency director was suspended Thursday for allowing state employees to search databases for information on Joe the Plumber, the Ohioan who became famous after confronting Obama about his tax policies.

Odviously the Verizon employees were Republicans trying to dig up dirt on Obama, to release before the election. But they didn’t find any. So they’ve been caught RED handed. (Maybe Bush will PARDON them.)
