A former White House press secretary is criticizing the White House press corps for its reluctance to press the Obama administration on why some Americans are receiving healthcare emails from the White House when they never signed up to receive them.
On Thursday, Fox News correspondent Major Garrett asked White House press secretary Robert Gibbs how the White House obtained the email addresses of Americans who received unsolicited email messages regarding healthcare reform from President Obama's senior adviser David Axelrod. The exchange became very heated. Former White House press secretary Dana Perino admits she was surprised there were not more questions from the White House press corps about the unsolicited Axelrod emails. "I'm still so close to having been White House press secretary that I imagine what it would have been like for me at the White House podium if there was a suggestion that we had taken the 'fishy' email list and then tried to use those email addresses to espouse our position to them. I am pretty sure that the White House briefing room would have been unglued," she contends. "So, I think that the questions need to be answered." She believes the unsolicited White House emails are borderline "unethical" and may even be illegal.
