Jeb is busy at the shredder...Abramoff connection?
Jeb shredding state records?

A source inside the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation told Insider magazine that Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has ordered the shredding of documents and public records, a clear violation of Florida law.

The department has oversight and approval of state gaming licensees, slot machines, dog and horse tracks, and jai-alai games.

The source, who asked to remain anonymous, said the governor also has brought in personnel from Texas to replace key members of his staff in Tallahassee. The Texans are overseeing the destruction of state documents, according to the source.

A source in the FBI confirmed that public records are being destroyed on orders of Jeb Bush. The source said the governor may have taken that action in response to the continuing criminal probe of Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff and the federal investigation of the 2001 gangland murder in Miami of Gus Boulis, owner of the Sun Cruz casino boat.

3. it is possible to 'reconstruct' shredded docs...
..if you have the shredded fragments. See the movie 'Lord of War'. Not really fictional.

It can be done, just like 'undeleting' deleted computer documents.

It just depends on how badly you want to do it, and how much you are willing to spend.

4. I don't understand this. If the FBI knows about it, why don't they
stop it? Does anyone else find that very weird or is just me?

5. Why do people need to be brought in from Texas?
I guess if they are looking for illiterate Bushbots, they know there is an ample supply of them here in Tx, but I htought there were plenty in FL also.

6. I'd be afraid for my life if I had rented or sold that shredder to them
Omg.
I can't wait to see the movie version of the State of the Union for the years 2000 to 2008.
