How To Get An Actual Response From The President

White House Web Mail Greeting Requests

An online form is available for U.S. citizens interested in requesting a greeting from President George W. Bush in recognition of an anniversary, baby's birth, birthday, or wedding.

No, I doubt that he does funerals. Certainly not funerals for our young and our brave who give their lives in Iraq or Afghanistan..... but I digress. If you ask nicely, Mr. Rumsfeld might send a form letter complete with machine-stamped signature.

E-mail The President?

Why not? I do.

Now you can join the thousands of whackos who send their opinions and questions daily, straight into the White House's trash bin.

You can write directly to a junior assistant sub deputy clerk working 10 miles from the White House at president@whitehouse.gov

Or you can use PrezMail (I made up the term).
    Some cautions about PrezMail:
  1. You have to disclose the tone of your e-mail: supporting, differing, general
  2. You have to choose one of 9 topics, each of which has several sub-topics from which you must choose
  3. This President has no interest in anything that isn't positive and supportive, if you have a gripe, save your electrons.
No, really. You can give the President a piece of your mind via e-mail.

James Bond Would

Why shouldn't you?

This is NOT a drill. It is a real spy camera.

It's for the gadget geek who thought s/he had everything.

Quizzes on lots of Microsoft products. Their point is to sell you training, but this could be very informative.
